Hey guys, I am hathater (as you can see by the title) I have made a vgc team. I got interested in vgc a few months ago and when I see battles, they always have the pokemon ;eg latios, chandulure, terrakion etc. So, I wanted to make an unpredictible team. Before I ev train my team, I want to see if has some problems. I have done a lot of reasearch So, here is my team!
This is my first rmt, so go easy.
Dusclops
Sassy nature Ev:252hp 252def 4 sdef
Eviolite
Moves: Night shade
Will-O-Wisp
Pain Split
Helping Hand
I picked dusclops because it is very bulky with eviolite. Seriously, it is too underused. A tornadus took many hits seriously? A tornadus? It can survive 1 choice specs shadow ball from chandulure. I chose night shade over seismic toss because there is more viable ghost types than normal types (obviously). helping hand is for support, pain split is for recovery and will-o-wisp is for attack drop and residual damage. in wifi, my dusclops required many hits to ko. I probably will not replace this, it's that good!
Durant
Item: Wide lens
Ability: Hustle
Jolly 4hp, 252 atk, 252 spd item:wide lens
moves
x-scizzor
iron head
rock slide
aerial ace
This is a very underrated pokemon, I do not know why this is in ru (maybe because of accuracy drop in hustle) , but it is a very powerful pokemon. Since hustle is + 50% in attack - 20% in accuracy it gets aproximately 265 attack, which is astonishing, but it gets wide lens to make up for the accuracy drop. X-scizzor is for cresselia and can 2 hit ko cresselia, iron head is for terrakion rock slide is a spread move, and aerial ace cannot miss. This may be replaced, but read the rules at the bottom first. I don't know if this moveset is very good because it doesn't have protect, and the moves aren't the best. Please feel free to correct this moveset.
Whimsicott
Ability:Prankster
timid 4hp 252 sp atk 252 spd
item:Focus Sash
Moves
Giga drain
tailwind
taunt
protect
Why whimsicott? Whimsicott is a very common pokemon, but i will make an exeption as it has prankster and has good support moves. Giga drain is for stab, tailwind is for speed, priority taunt is for trick room or tailwind and protect is standard. If you have any substitutes for whimsicott, feel free to that. But since it is extremely common, and trainers can now easily counter whimsicott, so maybe an alternative?
Nidoking
Timid 252 spatk 252 speed 4 hp life orb
Item:Life orb
Ability: Sheer force
Moves
Ice beam
dragon pulse
earth power
flamethrower or protect?
I chose Nidoking because it has good special attack because of the sheer force ability. I really don't know how I came across nidoking.
ice beam is for Pokemon that are weak to ice type moves (Quite frankly, a lot of types) earth power is for ground types, dragon pulse might be replaced and flamethrower might be replaced as well in place for protect. Also po will also not factor in sheer force, and will never get ko's. I am will to keep this for it's move pool and it being uncommon. Also, it could get some ko's in the real game because bw2 obviously factor in this ability, but this moveset is here for now, and can change
I have been practicing on po, but po doesn't seem to reconize eviolite and the hustle abilty
Vaporeon
Ability:Water Absorb
Ev's 252 hp 252 spdef 4 spatk
Moves
Icy wind
protect
wish or ice beam?
acid armour
Right here, vaporeon is supposed to be a very bulky pokemon, with acid armour, but with wish, it make for taunt bait, so the better move than wish should be ice beam, but wish can heal my pokemon and almost fully heal my dusclop therefore making my dusclops more annoying and can pain split+night shade and ko pokemon. Acid armour is for vaporeons low defence, and a wall in vgc should be a mixed wall, this could be changed because the vaporeon could be ko'd before acid armour, so maybe wish?
Jolteon
Item:Choice specs
Ability:Volt absorb
Moves
Volt switch
Thunder
Shadow ball
Signal Beam
Yes, I know what you are thinking.. Why would put 2 members of the eevee family?! Well, it hust so happens that the next choice is jolteon because it is a good rain counter because of STAB 100% accuracy thunder with choice specs, it will counter most things except for ludicolo, which is countered by x scissor from durant. volt switch works just like choice band scizor; it's a free switch. shadow ball and signal beam could for cresselia.
Honorable mention
1.Cradily 2.
Jynx
1.Why not? Because it relied on support moves, 2. Why not? It is a little too slow and before, I wanted a trick room team, and vgc has a time limit. But cradily is still great. Team, but it was too fast.
Thanks for reading this. Deuces?
