UU RMT*Seekers first

[dark_seeker]

Ok so this is my first uu RMT.Thought i would try my hand at uu and after changing my team around for entire day I end up with this.

The Team :

Typhlosion @ Choice Scarf
Mild
144 att/252 sp.att/112 spd
~Eruption
~Overheat
~Focus Punch
~Earthquake

I was suprised at the amount of people caught offgaurd by this typhlosion.Overheat for when eruption is running low on power.focus punch for thet damn chansey.HP ice for filler though i have barely used it a replace would be nice.Thinking of Earthquake.

Milotic @ Leftovers
Bold
148 hp/252 def/108 sp.att
~Hypnosis
~Recover
~Surf
~Ice Beam

This pocket monster is brilliant.sleep support and sweep.

Zangoose @ LifeOrb
Jolly
6 hp/252 att/252 spd
~Sword Dance
~Return
~Close combat
~Shadow claw

Though this guy lacks speed,he gets the occasinal sweep.I am seriously considering replacing him for a pokemon that can give me SR support.And counter those damn rain dance teams that run riot.

Raikou @ Leftovers
Timid
68 hp/116 sp.att/72 spd/252 spd
~Calm mind
~Substitute
~Thunderbolt
~Hidden power Ice

Good'ol Raikou.hasn't changed much since ADV.He was always nice.

Umbreon @ Leftovers
Careful
252 hp/92 sp.def/164 def
~Wish
~Mean look
~Baton pass
~yawn

He does his job well.Wish support is always great.trap passing.

Gallade @ LifeOrb
Adamant
6 hp/252 att/252 spd
~Close combat
~Leaf blade
~Shadow Sneak
~Ice punch

This guy packs a punch indeed.He is the pocket monster who gets baton passed to and does a good job of utilizing it.High sp.def already and a couple of curses and he is a power house.


Rate Away,Dont leave any flaw uncovered please.
Sorry for my lack of knowledge but i dont know how to add the cool looking pictures but once i learn how to,I will be sure to add them.Perhaps someonce can pm me on how to that would be great.Thank you.

I don't see what good it would do passing Curse to Gallade or any other poke in your team. Their speed is valuable, Curse will only make them worse. You could try White Herb on Gallade to cancel the speed drop, but I think it works 1 time only. Furthermore, in order for Umbreon to be successful at baton passing, you need to give it Taunt, which can go instead of Payback or Wish. The Trap Passer set from smogon might be a lot more useful tho.

Earthquake over HP Ice on Typhlosion.

Wow! Someone else who uses the Gallade/Umbreon combo! Nice! However, if you ware wanting to pass with Umbreon, I would suggest a different set as yours is extremely open to the fast number of fighting types in UU. You can use my Umbreaker set if you wish and I'll go ahead and modify it for your Curse passing:

"Umbreaker"@ Leftovers
Impish, Synchronize
212 Hp, 216 Def, 80 Sp.D
- Mean Look
- Yawn
- Baton Pass
- Curse/Tickle

This set is great for setting up a sweep. In fact, you could even help Zangoose out with this set as well (you might want Quick Attack on Zangoose btw so he doesn't lack speed anymore). What it is meant to do is Yawn on the Umbreon counter switching in. It is meant to take a big hit while trapping the opponent with Mean Look and putting it to sleep on the same turn. Then you can proceed to use Tickle or Curse.

The advantage of using Tickle > Curse is how the Umbreaker set gets it's name. After reading up on Wobbuffet, I discovered an old technique used back when it was in OU. Someone would simply switch in on a wall with Wobbuffet and Tickle away it's Def while the opponent could not switch out due to Wobbuffet's Shadow Tag. Once the defenses were lowered appropriately, Wobbuffet would switch with a Pursuit user. This was an easy way to break walls.

Umbreaker can trap walls like Lanturn and Chansey while Tickling away their defenses and then Baton Passing the weakened pokes to heavy sweepers that can sit behind a Sub (so that they can't be statused) and set up. The Sub is not as necessary as the sweeper though as you can pass while the opponent is asleep (due to Yawn). However, you want to pass Curse, so that is another obvious option as well. If you wish to use the true Umbreaker set, switch Gallade to a Bulk Up set. However, passing Curse, once again, is fine. This set will help set up all your sweepers easily if you pull it off.
