- Leech Seed
The greatest physical wall in BL in my opinion. Takes thunderpunches aimed at the first two like a pro. Standard set.

I did a little dance when i found out this beast is BL. Its ability is a pain, but after keeping in for 3 turns and keeping HP stores up with lefties and drain punch, its just plain excellent.

BL teams I'll never understand, it's just an OU team only you're limiting yourself.

But really, don't expect Regigias to last 5 turns for its ability to activate, as a counter will come in right away to be sure that doesn't happen. I wouldn't use Regigigas unless the team can help it a bit, since it's very...unique.

Mixed sweepers everywhere will be a huge huge problem, things like Mixed Electivire and Infernape absolutely run this team over, and there is no safe switch into physical Infernape either. It also has its fair share of Weavile troubles. Staraptor is also a problem...basically anything that breaks Tangrowth on the physical side beats this team.

Also, it doesn't really make sense that you have a SR weak pokemon that has to switch a lot...and no Rapid Spinner. I don't know many BL Rapid Spinners, but there are plenty of UU ones that are decent in the OU game.

I wasn't planning on using this against OUs, it was just going to be against other BLs

And yeah I realised I'd missed off a spinner as soon as I'd posted. I'll see if regigigas brings me any success before i decide who i sawitch for one.

Thanks anyway

You dont need max speed on this dude, its redundant due to speed ties put 42 in hp to survive a bit more, Ice Fang helps with Coverage and so does Fire Fang, but its only real purpose is for Bronzong, so you could easily run Crunch or Pursuit. Thunderfang isnt needed, all pokes will get hit harder by Stone Edge anyways

Your using the dude Wrong, use it to cripple stuff and piss stuff off, as a "pseudo" wall. Weird poke.

I like using stomp is a slot, T-Wave and stomp = paraflinch hax.

Thats all i have to comment on.

Better as a lead. I used it to great success as a lead.

no idea sorry.

Meh. I don't much like BL, it's just a 'nothing' tier really. Good luck though.

No idea what i was thinking with water pulse, i may have dropped into a noob state thinking it was worth it for the confusion :P

But I think im gonna drop Gigas, I thought his ability was a 3-turn problem not a 5.
I think I need a spinner, any thoughts on who could work? Im leaning towards claydol for the EQ and electric immunities

 

[Sora_8920]

Confusion is meh, and Surf has more power, so I'd go with Surf > Water Pulse.

 

[El Gofre]

Yeah i hadnt realised I'd put it until now. waterpulse will be out.

Also, consider T-Wave on 'Zam, as faster sweepers will destroy the frail poke. ~ Itachi 2008 ~

After somehow getting past those wretched colors I can tell you Thunder Wave on Alakazam is total garbage. The BL Metagame is a total joke, the fact they have one makes me lol. But really, I doubt there are many BL pokemon faster than Alakazam that it wouldn't scramble form anyways. Definitely not enough to warrant a moveslot.
