I just got started playing Pokemon recently and wondered if anyone could take a look at the team I am rolling with now on NetBattle. I'm about 90% positive it isn't that great so I'll take all advice. Thanks in advance.

Jolteon (M) @ Leftovers

Salamence (M) @ Leftovers ** Mike Jones
Trait: Intimidate
EVs: 96 HP / 252 Atk / 120 Spd / 40 SDef
Adamant Nature (+Atk, -SAtk)
- Dragon Dance
- Earthquake
- Hidden Power [Flying]
- Rock Slide

Tyranitar (M) @ Leftovers ** Paul Wall
Trait: Sand Stream
EVs: 252 HP / 67 Spd / 191 SAtk
Quiet Nature (+SAtk, -Spd)
- Crunch
- Focus Punch
- Substitute
- Thunderbolt

Skarmory (M) @ Leftovers
Trait: Keen Eye
EVs: 252 HP / 1 Atk / 132 Def / 1 Spd / 2 SAtk / 120 SDef
Hardy Nature (Neutral)
- Hidden Power [Flying]

You need to set a nature on Skarm/Suicune, and you're wasting 4EVs on Skarm >_>

that being said, Skarm doesn't really need the SDef, and I prefer having Ice Beam/more HP on Blissey. but that's just me. Also Jolteon can't roar too well, so consider HP Grass over it.

CZ · Mar 13th, 2007, 5:02:24 PM

Suicune and Skarmory need natures. Salamence's EV's are wierd, more HP is Standard, as most Ice Beams will still OHKO even with the Special Defense, but the HP will help you switch into Physical Attacks more often. Jolteon would perfer Hidden Power: Grass over roar as you already have Suicune Roaring and Skarmory Whirlwinding. Boah isnt used too often anymore, Choice Band TTar is much more, so Id say look into that. You have no Ice attacks, so Dragons my give you trouble, so maybe put Ice Beam On Cune or Blissey could help with that.

Jolt can't take a hit to Roar anything. Replace with HP Grass/Ice or TWave.

Salamence (M) @ Leftovers ** Mike Jones
Trait: Intimidate
EVs: 96 HP / 252 Atk / 120 Spd / 40 SDef
Adamant Nature (+Atk, -SAtk)
- Dragon Dance
- Earthquake
- Hidden Power [Flying]
- Rock Slide

Take the SDef Evs and put them into HP. You can go with 112 Spd EVs because after a Dragon Dance, 264 speed turns into 396, which beats everything but Ninjask and Electrode. (lol electrode)

Tyranitar (M) @ Leftovers ** Paul Wall
Trait: Sand Stream
EVs: 252 HP / 67 Spd / 191 SAtk
Quiet Nature (+SAtk, -Spd)
- Crunch
- Focus Punch
- Substitute
- Thunderbolt

You'll want 70 Speed evs to sub before Weezing WoWs you.

Skarmory (M) @ Leftovers
Trait: Keen Eye
EVs: 252 HP / 1 Atk / 132 Def / 1 Spd / 2 SAtk / 120 SDef
Hardy Nature (Neutral)
- Hidden Power [Flying]
- Rest
- Spikes
- Whirlwind

Keep the HP, add around 190 Def evs, and dump the rest into speed.

Suicune @ Leftovers
Trait: Pressure
EVs: 252 HP / 248 Def / 8 Spd
Hardy Nature (Neutral)
- Calm Mind
- Rest
- Roar
- Surf

I don't play much with Cune, but this looks ok.

Blissey (F) @ Leftovers
Trait: Natural Cure
EVs: 80 HP / 252 Def / 176 Spd
Bold Nature (+Def, -Atk)
- Aromatherapy
- Seismic Toss
- Softboiled
- Thunder Wave

Max HP and Defense, Bold. 4 evs in SDef. Maybe Ice Beam over Seismic Toss.

Pretty good for a first team.

Thanks for the tips guys. I'll try to make an effort to redistribute the team a little better to see what I can get. So far its been a huge hit or miss effort while playing on NetBattle to see what works the best.

EDIT: I'm thinking of replacing Jolteon if anyone can think of a good replacement. Thanks. :D

You should put some EVs together and addem to attack and speed.

Suicune @ Leftovers
Trait: Pressure
EVs: 252 HP / 248 Def / 8 Spd

Trait: Natural Cure
EVs: 80 HP / 252 Def / 176 Spd
Bold Nature (+Def, -Atk)

Pink whore deserves to die. Dont invest in speed instead add some more to HP.

-FL- · Mar 13th, 2007, 9:41:33 PM

Go with 704 HP on Blissey (on stat), and max DEF, the rest I put it in SA to have a stronger Ice Beam. However, you will always 2KO Salamence, but you can invest more EVs in to OHKO Dugtrio.

The team is fairly good, and make sure to go with HP Grass on Jolts, cause Swampert gives you some problems.

Sub Pass Celebitch is eh.
I suggest swapping to swords dance to aid salamence and tyranitar in their efforts.
gives the team that much more power.
then either swap to HP Bug or keep Psychic as your attack.

Timid/Jolly nature btw.

Salamence (M) @ Leftovers ** Mike Jones
Trait: Intimidate
EVs: 144 HP / 252 Atk / 112 Spd
Adamant Nature (+Atk, -SAtk)

Fire Blast over Rock Slide. And drop it's attack down to 136 EV's. put it all in HP.

Tyranitar (M) @ Choice Band ** Paul Wall
Trait: Sand Stream
EVs: 4 HP / 252 Atk / 252 Spd
Adamant Nature (+Atk, -SAtk)

EVs: 252 HP / 188 Def / 70 Spd
Impish Nature (+Def, -SAtk)
- Hidden Power [Flying]
- Rest
- Spikes

don't need any speed tbh. Just use all that Speed in SDef to give yourself some extra protection against water/ice moves allowing you to get in that toxic or extra layer of spikes.
oh, use toxic over rest.

Suicune @ Leftovers
Trait: Pressure
EVs: 252 HP / 248 Def / 8 Spd
Bold Nature (+Def, -Atk)
- Calm Mind
- Ice Beam
- Rest

roar over ice beam.
