    Special: Flamethrower, Dragon Pulse, Air Slash, Substitute / with Salac Berry and a HP amount, divisible by 4, which is neccesary for Salac Berry activation

    Thanks for the advice, bro. I'm usually more prone to special sweepers, so I'll try a variation of that. Unfortunately I'm playing FireRed so I've got a limited amount of moves to choose from.

  • Gengar used Shadow Ball (if not predicted)
    - Snorlax isn't affected by Shadow Ball
    - Gengar used Hypnosis, Snorlax falls asleep
    - Gengar charges Focus Punch, Snorlax sleeps, Gengar uses Focus Punch
    Either: Opponent switches Snorlax out (see self, what you will do =D)
    Or: Lets Snorlax on the field -> Gengar charges Focus Punch, Snorlax still sleeps, Gengar uses Focus Punch = Snorlax fainted
    -- Gengar used Focus Punch (if predicted a switch to Snorlax in this case)
    -- Snorlax lost around 45% of health
    Either: Opponent switches Snorlax out (See self what you will do =D)
    Or: Lets Snorlax on the field -> Gengar used Hypnosis, Snorlax fells asleep, Gengar uses Focus Punch = Snorlax fainted


    Yeah, but who in they're right mind would leave a wall in to get ohko'd by focus punch? I would predict that they would switch to Dusknoir or a psychic.

    Gyrados can use a Life Orb and Forretress can use a Shed Shell to prevent Magnezone from coming in and trapping it. Those are your only choices pretty much, since Tomb needs leftovers. Make sure you're actually playing Item Clause, which isn't usually standard.

    I'm currently making a UU-sorta team from my favorites; I'm probably gonna get more UU's to make my team stronger or to have a wide variety range of UU's to switch around. For now, I think I'm gonna use this team, but I'm not sure which Pokemons to use for my last one. I added 2 OU to give my team an edge and I needed a better Physical Sweeper I guess.

    Ninetales: (Quick-Sorta Lead)
    Hypnosis
    Will-O-Wisp
    Overheat/Fire Blast
    Energy Ball

    Gardevoir: (Special Sweeper)
    Calm Mind
    Psychic
    Thunderbolt
    Confuse Ray/Wish

    Azumarill: (Physical Hitter; Fairly Good Wall)
    Waterfall
    Brick Break
    Aqua Jet
    Double Edge/Return

    Lucario: (Physical Sweeper)
    Swords Dance
    Close Combat
    Extreme Speed
    Stone Edge/Crunch

    Salamence: (Mix Sweeper)
    Draco Meteor
    Earthquake
    Fire Blast
    Outrage/Roost


    These three Pokemon is what I want to possibly put in:

    Torterra: (Physical Wall; Semi Special Wall)
    Wood Hammer
    Earthquake
    Leech Seed
    Stealth Rock

    Clefable: (Special Wall with 200 Def EV)
    Calm Mind
    Soft Boiled
    Ice Beam
    Thunderbolt

    Umbreon: (All-Around Wall)
    Curse
    Payback
    Wish
    Toxic

    Problem with your lineup first and foremost is you have Salamence and Lucario. They are OU Pokemon and cannot be in a UU match. You'll need to edit them out to fight in UU, or you'll have to participate in OU.

    I didn't know I can't have a mix of OU's and UU's in a team? ._.?

    Unless you kinda misread what I meant by UU-sorta, as in like semi-UU team.

    Also decided on using Umbreon I think.

    Hey guys i just had a battle against Ezekiel and the funniest thing happened! He was left with a Mamoswine and i with Gengar, Snorlax and Bronzong. At this point i thought great i've got this, so i sent out Bronzong (his mamoswine had about 10% hp left) i thought gyro ball will kill him if not explosion for some fireworks. Yet to my suprise he uses ice fang on me freezing me on the first attack, so at this point i thought ok i will thaw out eventually.....and guess what! i didnt! i was hit by about 12-15 ice fangs(dont remember the exact number could easily be more) and Bronzong eventually fainted! To my understanding i thought frozen status runs thaws out after no more than 5 turns! this obviously proved otherwise. Anyone know how long it can last for? or was it effected by the fact a ice based move was used over and over.
    Gengar won it for me just incase anyone thought ice fang whiped out all 3 ;).

    Smogon said:
    Freeze is a rare status. The frozen Pokémon is unable to attack until it has thawed. There is a 25% chance of a frozen Pokémon thawing out each time it makes a move. Because of this power, there are no moves that can reliably freeze.

    Yeah, pretty much lol

  • Currently I have a Ludicolo on my team, I need something that can do the same thing as him (a good strong STAB water move.) I was given two suggestions for replacement. Empoleon and Swampert. Does anyone know if either of these can stand up do a full blown outrage?

    I'm not one to judge, but:

    1) Empoleon resists Dragon, and
    2) Its Ice Beam is stronger than Swamperts.
    Might help you to make a decision ^__^
