To clear up any confusion for those looking at this thread for the first time, in the middle of this post I am deciding between using Dragonite and Rotom or Bronzong and Ferrothorn. I am not deciding between the four of them willy-nilly, I am deciding between the teams of Dragonite/Rotom and Bronzong/Ferrothorn. Let me know what you guys think!
Ninjask lvl 100
Adamant Nature, Ability: Speed Boost
EV's: 248HP/244Def/16Speed
Item: Leftovers
Moveset:
X-Scissor
Baton Pass
Swords Dance
Substitute
The opening move on my team. Ninjask has the EV's on health to take on any starting attack if the opponent decides to be faster, or if my Ninjask is just naturally faster, he Subs to build up speed using Speed Boost. If there's time, throw in a couple Sword Dances for impending doom. X-Scissor for cover (what, you thought I'd have an all status Poke on my time?) Baton Pass at a reasonable time, considering the fact that he will be undeniably faster than anything. Baton Pass to Machamp.
Machamp lvl 100
Jolly Nature, Ability: No Guard
EV's: 252HP/252Atk/4Speed
Item: Leftovers
Moveset:
Substitute
DynamicPunch
Stone Edge
ThunderPunch
My physical sweep. With the Pass from Nin, his Speed should be atleast par with some of the fastest Poke out there, if not higher. Sub should allow for total sweepage, while DynaPunch is a great STAB 2HKO move, confusing at the same time. Stone Edge to deal with those pesky flying types and Thunderpunch for obvious coverage reasons.
Salamence
Jolly Nature
EV's: 252 Atk/4 Def/252 Speed
Dragon Dance
****n Claw/Outrage <-------- Which should I use?
Earthquake
Flamethrower
A back-up physical attacker, in case Machamp decides he wants to sit the rest of the match out. DD should make for some decent sweepage. Can't choose between the more reliable DClaw or the more powerful Outrage as a STAB move, but Earthquake and Flamethrower make use of his amazing move pool.
Dragonite---------------------------------------------Bronzong
Item: Leftovers--------------------------------------Item: Light CLay
Nature: Careful--------------------------------------Nature: Relaxed
Ability: Multiscale------------------------------------Ability: Levitate
EV's: 252HP/252SpDef/4Speed-----------OR------EV's: 252HP/152Atk/8Def/96SpDef
-Thunder Wave--------------------------------------Reflect
-Substitute-------------------------------------------Light Screen
-Dragon Tail------------------------------------------Stealh Rock/Explosion
-Roost------------------------------------------------Gyro Ball/Earthquake
Ah, shuffling and annoying is so much fun, especially when you're using a womping Dragonite like this. Moves are self-explanatory for Para. Stalling ownage.
Levitate Rotom--------------------------------------Iron Barbs Ferrothorn
Timid Nature @ Leftovers--------------------------Relaxed Nature @ Leftovers
EV's: 252HP/4SpD/252Speed---------OR----------EV's: 252HP/88Def/96SpDef
-Light Screen----------------------------------------Spikes
-Reflect-----------------------------------------------Stealth Rock/Leech Seed
-Will-o-wisp------------------------------------------Gyro Ball/Protect/Thunder Wave
-Thunderbolt-----------------------------------------Power Whip/Protect
My team support wall. Might be good to set up those screens if Machamp sweep doesn't work. Can stall out with the Rotom and set up the screens and switch out to Sal or Lux. Will cripples, and I use thunderbolt instead of Shadowball only because Lux already takes care of the Shadowball.
Lucario lvl 100
Timid nature, Ability: Steadfast
Item: Life Orb
EV's: 252SpAtk/4SpD/252Sp
Moveset:
Aura Sphere
Nasty Plot
Shadow Ball
Vacuum Wave
Special attacker, covering practically everything with Aura and Shadow while becoming a beast with Nasty Plot. Vacuum Wave (which I've recently discovered is a very difficult move to obtain considering I hate breeding) is a nice priority move.
Tell me what you guys think! What moves should I use? Any changes or improvements? Suggestions? Replacements? Thanks!
