Hi. Before I begin, this team is currently in a Fourth Gen Soul Silver game. Once my White game has the E4 finished, I will be moving it onto fifth generation.
Currently, the team is EV trained and nature/Ability picked. I have not attempted to use Pokemon with perfect IVs.
All will be used at Lv 100.
Dragonite @ ?
252 HP / 206 Spe / 52 Atk
Jolly, Inner Focus (Is it possible to change his ability in dream world or will I have to retrain to get multiscale?)
Outrage, Dragon Dance, Thunder Punch - (Wing Attack) - Wing attack will be removed, maybe for Ice Punch or a more reliable Physical dragon move, maybe even fire punch in case of steel types like Scizor and perl.
Dragonite is a bulky damage dealer (sweeper?) in this team. I know that against everything but steel he will do a decent amount of damage.
Scizor @ ?
252 Atk / 252 Spe / 4 HP
Adamant Technician
Swords Dance, Bug Bite, Uturn and Bullet punch
I love both bug bite and Bullet punch for their STAB/Tech power of 135. Swords dance only helps to increase this. 252 Spe EVs help to allow the pokemon to outspeed things that bugs are good against, although I guess I must be wary of psychic/dark/fire/electric/water types with priority moves and bullet punchers, not that they should be using it against a steel type anyway.
Staraptor @ Choice Scarf
252 Atk / 252 Spe / 4 HP
Adamant Intimidate
Uturn, Brave bird, Close combat and fly (he is still my utility outside of competitive play.)
Should be fairly obvious in role, it takes on a leadership position and runs ahead of the line, hopefully able to outspeed in uturn choice scarf and let me set up an opponent for the fight at hand. Being a staraptor, I wouldn't be afraid to throw it away, since in the end it will die rather quickly.
Alakazam @ ?
252 Sp Atk / 252 Spe / 4Def
Modest, (Synchronise)
Focus Blast, Psychic, Calm Mind and ?
A Special coverage sweeper.
Typhlosion @ ?
252 Sp Atk / 252 Spe / 4 HP
Rash/Mild (Blaze)
Flamethrower, Eruption, (Earthquake) (Swift)
A fire-type who's only here because I have him. I'd love to keep him on but he isn't the best fire type available. if you can give me a better firetype that's in OU or lower, I'll look into him.
Tyranitar
252 HP / 252 Atk / 4 Def
Adamant Sand stream
Earthquake, Crunch, Stone edge and stealth rock
I like the tyrant. I don't know if he's any good as he is.
How is this list? I don't think it works well together. I've put together pokemon I like for themselves and haven't really thought about them as a team. if anyone's willing to help me understand what I'm doing wrong, it'd be greatly appreciated!
