[Dark Azelf]

Team overview​

*pokemonelite2000 image removed**pokemonelite2000 image removed*

​

So i got bored and decided to draw my pokes with so much artistic skill lololol

Team in depth
​

Metagross@Choice Scarf *Metang @ Copyright of Acredula*
252 ATT / 252 SPEED / 6 HP
Jolly Nature
Trait : Clear Body
- Stealth Rock
- Trick
- Meteor Mash
- Explosion

Trick Scarf Meta is awesome, Tricking a scarf onto a pokemon royally screws it. This also sets up SR which is pretty much a given on any team. Meteor Mash for STAB and Explosion for taking pretty much anything out. 393 speed ftw =D.

Kingdra@Life Orb *Elvis*
252 ATT / 26 SP.ATT / 232 SPEED
Adamant Nature
Trait : Sniper
- Dragon Dance
- Outrage
- Hydro Pump
- Waterfall

Well at first i though this poke sucks since it wast able to get past its primary counters. However ive now decided that its "ok" and it was just the SUB DD and Double Dance sets that are garbage. Waterfall + Outrage gain STAB and Hydro pump is for physical walls. Also its a cool tool for stall smashing =].

Shaymin-S@Life Orb *Ubar hax zomg no couterz*
252 SP.ATT / 252 SPEED / 6 Def
Timid Nature
Trait : Serene Grace
- Seed Flare
- Air Slash
- Earth power
- Hidden Power Ice

Alot can be said out skymin, but it really is a great sweeper and due to its really good speed, it can function as a psuedo revenge killer. Seed Flare + Air Slash for STAB and Earth power adds to coverage allowing me to eat stuff like Heatran. Seed Flare -2 sp.def and then an Hidden power Ice WILL ko most zapdos, it also eats dragons.

---

Rotom-F@Leftovers *Wanna ? Popsicle*
64 HP / 232 Sp.Att / 212 Speed
Timid Nature
Trait : Levitate
- Charge Beam
- Substitute
- Hidden Power Fighting
- Shadow Ball

This thing has gotten so many sweeps its kinda not funny anymore. Sub protects me from status and with 64 hp evs, standard 80 sp.att blissey cannot break my sub without Shadow Ball. Charge Beam allows me to get + 6 sp.att quite easilly, and once i get those boosts i can sweep with the un flawed coverage of HP Fight + Shadow Ball. + 6 hp Fight 2hko's standard 0 hp / close to max sp.def calm blissey incase you were wondering. Its immunites and resistances grant this MANY chances to switch in aswell.

Lucario@Choice Band *Spoon*
252 ATT / 252 SPEED / 6 DEF
Adamant Nature
Trait : Steadfast
- Close Combat
- Crunch
- Stone Edge / Ice Punch
- Extremespeed

CB Luke grants me immediate power and the ability to 2hko many walls, including Skarmory. Close Combat for HUGE power and STAB. Crunch for psychics and Ghosts and has great coverage along with Close Combat. Stone Edge for Flying switch ins, aka Mence and Gyarados and Extremspeed for priority. I may use Ice Punch if Gliscor comes back from its current low usage.
---

Heatran@Choice Scarf *Obease Tran*
Timid Nature
252 SP.ATT / 252 SPEED / 6 HP
Trait : Flash Fire
- Hidden Power Electric
- Dragon Pulse
- Earth Power
- Fire Blast

Revenge killer pretty much. As you can see im kinda Gyarados weak, i have rotom which although its bulky, i want back up, so hp electric helps in that regard to revenge kill it. Dragon Pulse to hit dragons and helps with Kingdra locked into outrage which is really easy to lure might i add =p. Fire Blast for STAB and Earth Power for coverage against other fires and what not.


:15:

 

[Zetta-Chan]

Ice Punch on Luke so Gliscor doesn't Lol at him/her.

I use the same set on Rotom-F, it is pretty cool (no pun intended.)

Kingdra could do better with a mixed set, this would help with your Gyarados weak.

Kingdra @ Life Orb
Mild Nature / Sniper
252 SpA / 80 Att / 172 Spe
- HP [Electric]
- Outrage
- Surf
- Draco Meteor

May wanna dump more Evs into attack.

 

[Anti]

Ice Punch on Luke so Gliscor doesn't Lol at him/her.

But wouldn't you much rather not be laughed at by Gyarados and Zapdos? Both are more common and more threating than Gliscor is.

EDIT: Both hit Zapdos supereffective, stone edge just does harder lol

 

[Skip Shot]

You have an extreme artist weak. Otherwise, the team looks pretty nice, I don't really like hte fact that you only have one guy who physically sweeps completely (Kingdra has Hydro Pump).
You have somewhat of a Skymin weakness (the sweeper kind), I'm not sure how much Freezertom can do if it is still setting up with Charge Beam.

 

[genesis42]

Pretty solid team and D_A, your artistic skills surpass mine any day lol, I'm really crappy at drawing =/ by the way... just wondering, but you battle on the Smogon server, right? If so, what's your user name on there??

But without further ado, let's begin.

~ I see no point in Gross hitting 393 Spd as it isn't outspeeding the base 130 +Spd pokemon with that Scarf, so your Spd target should be aimed at outspeeding Timid Skymin by 1 point and putting the remainder into Hp. Small difference I know... but hey, atleast it's something ;_;

~ Question about Kingdra: Is it really still 2HKOing all the Physical walls with Hydro Pump even though it has a Adamant nature? If it isn't, you can always change the nature to Lonely/Naughty. On a side note, if you want, you can transfer 32 EVs from Atk/Sp.Atk into Hp so Kingdra hits 299 Hp while only taking 29 damage from LOs recoil.

~ Just so you know, I actually have a surefire 100% Skymin counter ;D

~ Nice Rotom-F set you got there but I dunno.. it seems quite situational.. if not, then ignore I said this.

~ Wow, a Luke with CB? Very surprising... I like it lol

~ Eh.. I was about to recommend HP (Ice) over Dragon Pulse for your Heatran right now, but then I looked at its MS again and found out you're already using HP (Elec) for Gyara, Moltres etc...

Ice Punch on Luke so Gliscor doesn't Lol at him/her.

Well gliscor's usage is pretty low at this point, but if i do have problems ill use ice punch.

I use the same set on Rotom-F, it is pretty cool (no pun intended.)

o snap lol

Kingdra could do better with a mixed set, this would help with your Gyarados weak.

Kingdra @ Life Orb
Mild Nature / Sniper
252 SpA / 80 Att / 172 Spe
- HP [Electric]
- Outrage

Ill try this if Dos becomes more of a problem.

You have an extreme artist weak. Otherwise, the team looks pretty nice, I don't really like hte fact that you only have one guy who physically sweeps completely (Kingdra has Hydro Pump).
You have somewhat of a Skymin weakness (the sweeper kind), I'm not sure how much Freezertom can do if it is still setting up with Charge Beam.

Lucario, Kingdra, meta are all physically based so meh =p.

As for skymin, heatran usually eats it and SR prevents it from coming in much. Meta can also revenge since it isnt OHKO's by anything and neither is freezertom.

Pretty solid team and D_A, your artistic skills surpass mine any day lol, I'm really crappy at drawing =/ by the way... just wondering, but you battle on the Smogon server, right? If so, what's your user name on there??

Im D-A on smogon, but i dont really go on there much X]. This team is/was for the official server.

But without further ado, let's begin.

~ I see no point in Gross hitting 393 Spd as it isn't outspeeding the base 130 +Spd pokemon with that Scarf, so your Spd target should be aimed at outspeeding Timid Skymin by 1 point and putting the remainder into Hp. Small difference I know... but hey, atleast it's something ;_;

Ill consider doing this, hmm...

~ Question about Kingdra: Is it really still 2HKOing all the Physical walls with Hydro Pump even though it has a Adamant nature? If it isn't, you can always change the nature to Lonely/Naughty. On a side note, if you want, you can transfer 32 EVs from Atk/Sp.Atk into Hp so Kingdra hits 299 Hp while only taking 29 damage from LOs recoil.

Yep it does like 70% to max hp/0 s.def standard skarmory, about the lo thing, ill try that..

~ Just so you know, I actually have a surefire 100% Skymin counter ;D

Crobat ? =p

~ Nice Rotom-F set you got there but I dunno.. it seems quite situational.. if not, then ignore I said this.

Well the thing is really easy to get in, set up and sweep due to its resistances and immunities and the coverage the set grants. You should try it, its great ;).

~ Wow, a Luke with CB? Very surprising... I like it lol

Yus =D

~ Eh.. I was about to recommend HP (Ice) over Dragon Pulse for your Heatran right now, but then I looked at its MS again and found out you're already using HP (Elec) for Gyara, Moltres etc...
