EDIT: Anyone? This isn't a RMT or anything...just a yes/no question...
Okay, I was thinking of this for my team I'm making in 3rd gen.
Umbreon@Leftovers
Trait: Syncronize
Bold Nature
EVs: 252 HP, 252 Defense, 6 Special Defense
~Mean Look
~Baton Pass
~Wish
~Curse
Okay, this is pretty standard. At least mean look and BP are.
Hypno@Leftovers
Trait: Wonder Guard (no, I'm kidding, Insomnia is the real trait)
Calm Nature
EVs: 252 HP, 252 Special Defense, 6 Defense
~Calm Mind
~Baton Pass
~Psychic
~Thunder Wave
It gets BP from XD, from admin Gorigan.
So here was my thought: I have steelix on my teams almost always as my physical wall. I feel it could be a lot more useful if umbreon gave it wish support as well as the benefits of curse. That way it could take CBed EQs much better, and maybe be able to take out metagross or stuff like that.
You all also probably know Kingdra is also seen on all of my teams. I figured it could receive CM from Hypno, as it's my special sweeper, and could be a much more effective attacker. Thunder Wave would also give kingdra enough speed on the opponent to not need to set up the rain.
So here's my question, which will probably turn plural here in a minute: Is this BP strategy flawed or can it work? I have two open slots on my team, so the two others could also benefit. Let's say I incorperate Scizor into my team. Then it receives curse as well and gets a major attack and defense boost. That's just hypothetic though. In case you don't understand my strategy,
here is my team so far:
Kingdra@Lum Berry
Trait: Swift Swim
Timid Nature
EVs: 252 HP, 252 Special Attack, 6 Speed
~Rain Dance
~Surf
~HP Electric
~Ice Beam
Umbreon@Leftovers
Trait: Sycronize
Bold Nature
EVs: 252 HP, 252 Defense, 6 Special Defense
~Curse
~Mean Look
~Wish
~Baton Pass
Steelix@Leftovers
Trait: Sturdy
Impish Nature
EVs: 252 HP, 252 Defense, 6 Attack
~Earthquake
~Explosion
~Toxic
~Rock Slide
Hypno@Leftovers
Trait: Insomnia
Calm Nature
EVs: 252 HP, 252 Special Defense, 6 Defense
~Baton Pass
~Calm Mind
~Thunder Wave
~Psychic
So yeah. Can my BP strategy work?
