I just created a team to play with my friends and maybe play online. Rate my team please, any suggestions are great :D
Gliscor - lead baton passer
Item: Leftovers
Ability: Hyper cutter
Nature: Jolly
Moves:
Sword dance
Baton pass
Rock polish
Roost
EV's: 252 HP / 196 SpD / 60 Spe
Comments:
Basically all i want to do with my lead is get get straight into my sweep, with tyranitar + gyarados as potential receivers. With opposite weaknesses practically will make my switch in fairly easy, and most attacks are predictable when countering gliscor. Any suggestions whether i should switch back to ninjask or not, or any other pokemon would be appreciated. Ninjask seems easier to use, but with roost gliscor may be easier to switch back to after a death and get another baton pass out of with roost.
Tyranitar - sweeper
Item: life orb
Ability: sand stream
Nature: jolly
Moves:
earthquake
crunch
stone edge
fire punch
EV's: 4 HP / 252 att / 252 Sp
Comments:
Tyranitar will be my sweeper, hopefully with the addition of as much speed+att from baton pass will be pretty effective right off the bat. I chose life orb over choice stuff because i want to be able to have good type coverage, and dont want to get stuck using a move that can easily be walled. fire punch is obviously for scizor/steel in general, if i even stand a chance. I paired him up with gyarados because of their resistance combinations, whatever is super effective to tyranitar, gyarados can easily counter and vise versa.
Dusknoir - Mix wall + Will-o-wisp
Item: Leftovers
Ability: pressure
Nature: impish
Moves:
pain split
fire punch
thunder punch
will-o-wisp
EV's: 4 hp / 252 SpA / 252 Spe
Comments:
Replaces my fire type, also allows me to hopefully wall a variety of pokemon, and also burn them. after that pain split im sure would be necessary and either punch that would be effective after that. Not really much to explain here.
Skarmory - Stealth rock + Wall. Lead?
Item: Leftovers
Ability: keen eye
Nature: impish
Moves:
Stealth rock
Brave bird
roost
whirlwind
EV's: 252 HP / 64 Atk / 176 Def / 16 spe
Comments:
Skarmory as a physical wall, mainly to take down sweepers, with it's annoying toxic and brave bird roost combo. On top of that, it will have stealth rock if i can squeeze it in somewhere, however depending on the timing of the game may be unnecessary. Also wondering if i should use him as a lead to quickly use stealth rock and last as long as he can afterwards, with roost and toxic as good support
Exeggutor - type coverage + solar beam
Item: Leftovers
Ability: Chlorophyll
Nature: Modest
Moves:
Solar beam
Sunny day
Psychic
sleep powder
EV's: 252 SpA / 4 hp / 252 Spe
Comments:
Switched in at the right time could allow me to sunny day as the opponent switches out, and then sweep with solar beam. Chlorophyll will basically allow me to outspeed everything, and lets solar beam not need to charge, just need to hope weather doesnt change. I'm debating over grass knot and leech seed, and so far am leaning towards grass knot. grass knot will allow me to quickly get rid of any water that threatens tyranitar switching in, and leach seed would just give me another needed turn of preparation, in which the opponent could easily switch to a wall.
Gyarados - DD sweep
Item: life orb
Ability: Intimadate
Nature: Adamant
Moves:
dragon dance
Waterfall
Ice Fang
Earthquake
EV's: 252 Att / 252 Spe / 4 Hp
Comments:
Gyarados will be my backup to tyranitar, anything that counters him, gyarados can usually counter pretty effectively. without the need of the baton pass, but the possibility, i think gyarados can sweep using dragon dance then any move he wants. Not much too explain, earthquake is to get rid of pesky electric types + any land creature that STAB waterfall doesnt take care of. ice fang to get rid of grass, as well as flying that earthquake can reach.
