    TEAM DESERTED OASIS - GO!
    Overview
    "image removed""image removed""image removed""image removed""image removed""image removed"

    Team Idea
    Ok, so not exactly the mono-type you were expecting. No the mono is not rock...or ground...or steel, it's grass. Now the initial team was a Sunny Day Team but when I saw how easily I was able to adapt it, it became an SS Mono. Well, the idea is to keep this adaptable to the new UU as possible but by all means, change if nessecessary.Tyranitar was just obvious because of all the variants, is just impossible to predict, and because DDCounterlead was just unresistable. The last two were added on to make it a true SS team. Exeggutor was just one of my favourite pokemons but never had the chance to use, so here it is in my SS team as a support. So yea my team >_> Who knew? And now I present to you, the team...

    THETEAM

    *pokemonelite2000 image removed*
    Tyranitar @ Leftovers
    Ability: Sand Stream
    EVs: 104 HP/140 Atk/76 Def/188 Spd
    Adamant nature
    ~Dragon Dance
    ~Counter
    ~Stone Edge
    ~Earthquake
    Ok, so DDCounter is a bit uncalled for but lemme explain. Bronzong uses Gyro Ball. Tyranitar uses Counter. Easy KO right there. Or Scizor uses Bullet Punch. Tyranitar uses Counter. Another easy KO. Knock out the counters and then DD away and fight with a rock/ground combo ^_^

    *pokemonelite2000 image removed*
    Venusaur @ Choice Scarf
    Ability: Overgrow
    EVs: 56 HP/200 Spd/252 SAtk
    Timid nature
    ~Sleep Powder
    ~Leaf Storm
    ~Hidden Power [Ice]
    ~Earthquake
    Standard Scarf. Sleep powder shuts down supposed counters. Most commonly known as a hit-and-runner and works well too. Also a fine late-gamer.

    *pokemonelite2000 image removed*
    Exeggutor @ Leftovers
    Ability: Chlorophyll
    EVs: 252 HP/212 Atk/44 Spd
    Adamant nature
    ~Sleep Powder
    ~Leech Seed
    ~Explosion
    ~Wood Hammer
    A support set. Leech seed to sap away stuff. Wood Hammer for STAB and power. Sleep powder and explosion for the usual 'WE MUST KILL SOMTHING WITH THIS RIGHT?' -Smogon

    *pokemonelite2000 image removed*
    Torterra @ Choice Band
    Ability: Overgrow
    EVs: 20 HP/252 Atk/236 Spd
    Adamant nature
    ~Wood Hammer
    ~Earthquake
    ~Stone Edge
    ~Crunch
    A very sturdy CB user. And when your using a mono-grass, there aren't many sturdy CBers. Wood Hammer and EQ for STAB. Stone Edge for combo with EQ and crunch for Gengar.

    *pokemonelite2000 image removed*
    Cacturne @ Leftovers
    Ability: Sand Veil
    EVs: 204 HP/252 Atk/52 Spd
    Adamant nature
    ~Substitute
    ~Focus Punch
    ~Sucker Punch
    ~Leech Seed
    Ok lets see how this all works out. Sub up. MAKE people attack you. Sucker Punch 'Em in the gut or use the infamous Focus Punch. And lets not forget Subseed, another valuble addition to this set.

    *pokemonelite2000 image removed*
    Cradily @ Nothing
    Ability: Suction Cups
    EVs: 252 HP/160 Def/96 SDef
    Careful nature
    ~Rock Slide
    ~Recover
    ~Toxic
    ~Earthquake
    Ok, not like I had access to Blissey...or Chansey, so Cradily was a decent choice. Coupled with SS and Recover, this beast takes Special attacks like a tank taking attacks from nuclear bombs...not overly well. It does get the job done though so thats what matters.

    So this team is more of a gimmick to me but to put through competitive would be swell. All criticsm, rates, and thoughts will be considered. Rate away PC!

    Why Timid on Venusaur when you have Earthquake?
    Use Hasty.
    Also, Leftovers on Cradily.
    I'll be back later, I'm in a rush here.
     
    I'm not stopping for a full rate, but get rid of Exeggutor and Venusaur. Seriously, what the hell are they even doing? Replace Exeggutor with Tangrowth, and...Venusaur...just get rid of it entirely. Replace it with Scarfed Heatran since Infernape completely destroys your entire team.
     
    cant you read its a mono team

    you might want to replace venusaur with jumpluff
    its faster and it has sleep power too
     
    May I just state that it being a mono team makes no sense with a Rock/Dark type, Tyranitar as a lead when this is a 'grass team'. Seems to be a 'colour green' team.

    Jumpluff could be useful as above said.
    Jumpluff @ Leftovers
    Jolly || 188 Def / 68 SpD / 252 Spe
    Leech Seed
    Substitute
    Encore
    Aerial Ace

    Can be quite the good staller, I had some troubles with that last time.
    But as 'dot' said, you are Infernape weak. Heatran over something.
     
    Isn't the Torterra a laggy Physical Choice Band Sweeper on a Sandstorm team?
    The two bolded words just kill all your changes on Torty. :\ They're special defence EVs BTW. :\

    Uh, no lol. Spd is speed...besides, it says "SDef" on Cradily which would lead me to believe that "Spd" is not saying the same thing x_x

    Just saying, but this team has trouble with so many things it isn't even funny o_o It would hardly survive in UUs let alone OUs where you're using a team of Sunny Day pokemon.

    But for a mono grass team which probably shouldn't be taken seriously anyways, i guess it's okay. Seriously though, you're going to have to do a little better than Earthquake on a Scarf Venausaur though o_O

    Before you try an insult people, actually try and give a decent rate, instead of a waste of time like this.

    Sorry, I'm harsh 8|.
    If you have any questions about my rate, feel free to PM me.

    Uhhh...No.

    Torterra needs EQ, and Crunch is a decent move it on. Sunny Day on a CBer and a special grass attack on the same guy is ridiculous.
     
    ok so a few things to say
    1. its a mono team one wild card so, thats cleared up
    2. would scarf ludicolo fix up mu infernape problem
    3. running tangrowth double powder with knock off over EQ would work?
    tell me if those would work

    in a monotype team 5/6 of your team has to be the same type so tyranitar is ok
