INTRODUCTION
(Pardon my horrible grammer)
Ok. I have been really inactive for the past 3 months now, and if you remember me you would remember my previous post was and OU team. I find OU too mainstream and it was getting really boring(No offense), so I decided to look for another tier to play, then BAM I found the ubers tier. I know I know, ubers is mainstream and all etc etc but I find it one the most interesting and fun tiers in pokemon. The ability to use all pokemon from all gens is really cool, and I get to use awesome beasts like Arceus etc etc. RMTs aren't really my thing in the first place, so pardon the untidiness. Anyway, the name came from this short story I read some time ago, i might have screwed up the title but whatever... As the name suggests, it is a sun team, but a really messed up one i suppose. Not much of an achievement but the highest rank I have ever got up to was about 500-ish. Kyogre was too mainstream, and I really liked Ho-oh,and so I built a team with it. Without further ado(Pardon my cliche-ness):
MY TEAM:
(No team-building process cuz' im too lazy :P)
THE TEAM
Note: I have forgotten to put the extra 4 EVs on some pokes
Groudon @ Lum Berry
Trait: Drought
EVs: 252 Atk / 4 Def / 252 Spd
Jolly Nature (+Spd, -SAtk)
- Rock Polish
- Swords Dance
- Earthquake
- Stone Edge
To start the summer festival, you either need a beast or a horse. Guess who won the spot. Groundon is there to summon the sun, and sweep whenever it can. Personally my favourite set-Standard double dancer, only with a Jolly nature to score a 2HKO first on opposing groundons. Ev spread are self-explanatory, Earthquake for obvious STAB, and stone edge to hit flyers (Especially Ho-oh and Rayquaza). Lum berry is a bit special over the common life orb or lefties. Since I would be leading with it almost all the time, I have to be able to beat the common leads. Lum berry is especially for Darkrai: Dark Void, Wake up, EQ, switch. Not very effective but hurts it enough to revenge with my Palkia. Against Deoxys-s leads I EQ immediately as it taunts or magic coats. Nothing much about Groundon to say (I'm a lazy person)
Palkia @ Choice Scarf
Trait: Pressure
EVs: 4 HP / 252 SAtk / 252 Spd
Timid Nature (+Spd, -Atk)
- Hydro Pump
- Spacial Rend
- Thunder
- Fire Blast
Ahh, my revenge killer, pretty good overall with that god-like speed tier(Considering this is ubers) to jump on +1 DD Ray , and scarfed base 90s. Decent at what it does best. Everyone knows what sun teams hate most: KYOGRE, so IT MUST DIE. Lol pardon my random caps. Yea this is my kyogre killer, but is an effective revenge killer overall after its job is done. Basically, switch in on a predicted water spout or surf, then start scaring it away with that almighty thunder. 2HKOs nicely, but works best with entry hazards, cuz' switching might be game-changing (MIGHT). Spacial Rend is a compulsory STAB that revenges and nails dragons hard . Fire blast for the pseudo-STAB in the sun, Cleanly OHKOes (Duh) predicted Ferrothorn switch-ins. Thunder for hitting my nemesis hard in the rain it provides (Thank you Kyogre). And Hydro pump... I never EVER use it so I'm planning to switch it for Ice beam, so suggestions pleaseeee. Also Evs are pretty standard.
Ho-Oh @ Life Orb
Trait: Regenerator
EVs: 252 Atk / 252 Spd
Adamant Nature (+Atk, -SAtk)
- Tailwind
- Brave Bird
- Sacred Fire
- Roost
The god-like Phoenix is what made me fall in love with the ubers tier. Not sure why, but it looks god-like, is god-like, and hit god-like. Its dual STABs are insanely powerful, and I like how it scores and OHKO on non Def-invested Kyogre with brave bird after SR. My favourite set. (Tank wasn't really helpful) I used to run flame charge on this thing, but the recoil with each hit wasn't very appealing, causing me too roost to often. Roost to heal of SR damage (If I don't get the spin) and the recoil from Brave Bird and LO. LO is too good paired with its almighty base 130 attack, allowing me to hit really hard. Groundon really synergises well with this thing: Sun, rock resist, Zekrom killer, blarblar. My dual STABs in brave bird and Sacred fire. Zekrom is not really a problem here cuz' it can't really afford to get burned by my 50% burning chance sacred fire. Sacred fire to hit every thing that doesn't resist really hard(Duh). Also Evs are obvious, with tailwind allowing me to use an Adamant nature.
Reshiram @ Life Orb
Trait: Turboblaze
EVs: 4 HP / 252 SAtk / 252 Spd
Modest Nature (+SAtk, -Atk)
- Substitute
- Roost
- Blue Flare
- Dragon Pulse
Quite a unique set in my opinion, catches many people off-guard as they scramble to try and break my sub as fast as possible. I think I might give reshiram 404 hp to beat Blissey and chansey in the Sun, but it might be kinda stupid so suggestions againnnnn. Sub roost is like the original Kyurem set, works quite well, and works like the smogon-suggested sub set only forgoing focus blast (Why did they even suggest this, Reshiram already has perfect coverage with it dual STABS) with roost to lengthen its short lifespan together with more fire-power (No puns intended) with life orb. Not sure if sub is really necessary but whatever. Insane power in the sun with blue flare, OHKOes everything not resisting it. (Even resisted pokemon die from my dragon pulse) Dragon pulse completes my unresisted coverage and hits dragons hard overall. Excellent pokemon IMO that I feel should receive more usage in ubers with the god-like blue flare in the sun(Although stealth rock weak). WHY IS EVERYONE SO AGAINST SR-WEAK POKES WHYWHYWHY??? sorry lol randomness. DARMANITAN FTW USE IT lol this is like an advertising RMT.
Forretress (M) @ Leftovers
Trait: Sturdy
EVs: 252 HP / 252 SDef
Careful Nature (+SDef, -SAtk)
- Spikes
- Stealth Rock
- Toxic
- Rapid Spin
I am getting tired of typing line after line, so I'll try to make this short and sweet. Forretress is my only non-uber pokemon in my team, and it's sole purpose: Spin and set-up SR. Spin to let Ho-oh switch in safely, two hazards to let oppsing team take more passive damage, and toxic to prevent it becoming a set-up fodder. Counters non-EQ extremekiller quite well. Well nothing more to say, Evs to maximize the special defense to take hits better (Considering that it's defense is naturally good). Lefties to lengthen lifespan.
Arceus-Ghost @ Spooky Plate
Trait: Multitype
EVs: 252 HP / 4 Def / 252 Spd
Timid Nature (+Spd, -Atk)
- Roar
- Will-O-Wisp
- Judgment
- Recover
If you didn't realize it earlier the sprite is wrong, but i can't find the correct one so WTV. Arceus-Ghost is my spin blocker (Giratina-o stacks my dragon weakness) and also my extremekiller arceus. I am planning to change this to Arceus Rock to check Ho-oh and Reshiram and extremekiller arceus, which pose quite a threat to my team. I'm getting really sleepy now... Anyway this member most likely would be removed. Im not writing much for this poke as it probably would be changed. Evs to outspeed extremekiller and hit WoW first. If it has lum i would have to pray the next WoW hits.
There, what a tiring RMT to write. Please leave your suggestions and I will see to it. Threat List would be edited in soon. Thank you for reading and hope that you would take your time to comment.
THANK YOU ALL
