YaY! I got shoddy back :D

So, liek, I haven't been able to battle for a while now, so my team making skills are horrible :/ Help a guy out a little :D

I lead with this guy, and he does a good number to people's teams after a SR and 3 sets of Spikes. So... I want to keep him if at all possible.

This thing survives Focus Blast from Gengar, then kills it with Crunch, then rests. I kind of ripped it from Dark Azelf :/

ewwwww, Forry leads. I would suggest Lum Berry for Bronzong leads, so you can definately get an SR in, but you need leftovers recovery so....?_? Also, what do the Sp. Def EV's benefit?

fine. Just I like Jolly, because it outspeeds Adamant SD Lucario and OHKO's with Earthquake. (As I found out the hard way...)

This guy really doesn't do much, except surprise a couple people with Counter. I like it, I just wish I had a different moveset/EV Spread.

Well...I suppose you like this because it 'counters Deoxys', but Spiritomb does it better, and this just...get's in the way. *Is shot by samson.

Meh, I would prefer Spiritomb, as it can switch into Deoxys-E and counter pretty effectively with Pursuit/Sucker Punch. This fears Shadow Ball.

Shadow Ball takes Dusknoir and Cress (as well as opposing D-E). You need more speed nowdays, as everyone on Shoddy is running at least 104 to outspeed other D-E.

ok... So it survives Gengar, anything else it's handy for? I don't see it being much useful when D-E comes in, so you open yourself up for a Special Sweep from said Gengar if that happens.

I would like a Special Sweeper plesh over Mootank.

[Ooka]

I was just pointing out the fact that it does take care of Gengar, other things it helps my team out with are Pory-Z, and Cresselia. It's not a one trick pony, I can tell you that much :P


Also, I like Timid on SpecsLuke more.

 

[Samson]

geez look at that fire weak o.O a bronzong + heatran combo would poop on this team.

 

[Ooka]

Yeah, I actually battled someone with a Bronzong lead, and they had a Heatran as well. The funny thing is I just took out the Pokemon that killed the Heatran and stalled the Bronzong out of moves ._.

 

[Anti]

I don't get why people even think about using Jolly Mamoswine...it still doesn't take Extremespeed real lightly...

That Tyranitar doesn't take care of Gengar. Yeah it can survive focus Blast, but does that really matter? It looks like one of your only good switches on it (maybe THE only good one) and ~90% of its health will be gone.

Lucario doesn't need Timid nature...just use Modest. Unless you could provide some insight as to why you run Timid?

 

[Ooka]

Lol, no I just like speed is all.

 

[Ársa]

Anti is right though, you really don't need Timid, you don't outspeed much more. (Vacuum Wave still takes Mamoswine...)

 

[Ooka]

I was going to change it anyways, I was just saying the reason I was going to choose it instead of Modest is because I like being fast.

 

[Ársa]

Can someone please tell him to get rid of the Tyranitar and Dusknoir? O_O Spiritomb >> Dusknoir.

~T_S

 

[Ooka]

I'll get rid of the Dusknoir, but the Tyranitar just does far too well for me. Besides, it's the only thing I've got that can take care of Cresselia.

 

[Ársa]

Meh, if you insist. Want to test it out on me on ABYAY's server?

~T_S

 

[Ooka]

Darn, sorry I didn't see this earlier.

What is ABYAY's server stuff? And why doesn't anyone get on the official server anymore?
