Welcome to my RMT! First and foremost this team was created by me wanting to use my favorite mon, Lickilicky! I'm well aware that he is not that great of a mon but I wanted to build a team where he could prosper. I have had decent success and I think I can make this team slighter better or gather different ideas to even make a new team designed around him! I am mainly a OU player but I been looking into NU lately. The team I tried before this was Queen of Luvdics stall team. I think I made top 50 before the ladder reset but it really wasn't my style of play although it was really good. I named this team after my favorite snacks. So lets get into the RMT. I laddered under the name Yung Wavy with this team.

Chocolate Swirl (Spiritomb) @ Choice Band
Ability: Infiltrator
EVs: 252 HP / 252 Atk / 4 Def
Adamant Nature
- Pursuit
- Shadow Sneak
- Sucker Punch
- Trick
Man this set has got me out of so much trouble! I love it I use other mons to bait to the psychic and then I choice band pursuit them. Works all the time :) Ev spread is for tanking hits and then dealing out max damage. This set also works on non psychic types like. Cryogonal for example coming into spin. I can take him out and not worry about him for the rest of the game. That being said I think its better to make him more specially defensive so he can take moon blast and stray moves better. Also taking on scarfed Typhosion better would be nice. Tricking though subs is a godsend against opponents that keep setting up. As well as sucker punching though subs. This set is a little bit different but more people should try it out. Chocolate swirl mixes up the game until its in my favor. HE ALWAYS PUTS IN WORK.
Lil Debby (Vileplume) (F) @ Rocky Helmet
Ability: Effect Spore
EVs: 252 HP / 252 Def / 4 Spe
Bold Nature
- Sleep Powder
- Giga Drain
- Sludge Bomb
- Moonlight
Who dosent like Lil Debbie snacks? Lil Debbie was a late addition to the team. But I needed something that could handle non Crotomb and belly drum Slurpuff. The item I choose here is rocky helmet because I between moonlight and giga drain vile stays at a healthy amount of hp So I feel rocky helmet is great for discouraging people from constants attacks. Effective for the most part but most teams are prepared for this mon so you have to play her very careful. Having sleep is really nice for the thing I can't stop on the spot. Effect spore for ultimate lulz. Ev Spread is fairly standard.
Pound Cake (Gurdurr) (M) @ Eviolite
Ability: Guts
EVs: 252 HP / 252 Atk / 4 Def
Adamant Nature
- Bulk Up
- Drain Punch
- Knock Off
- Mach Punch
Pound cake beats up the opposition to crumbs. This thing is pretty self explanatory, He is so good in this tier and even with knockoff around, once he sets up it's game over. Another thing to point out about him is the source of priority he provides to the team making him not mind rocks to finish the kill.
He might be banned soon but who knows. He works well with Spritomb like I said earlier by baiting those psychics. But he almost so good to the point he doesn’t need synergy, but thats a different story. He will always be relevant as long as people still willow in his face haha.
Honey Smacks (Seismitoad) (M) @ Leftovers
Ability: Water Absorb
Shiny: Yes
EVs: 192 HP / 208 Atk / 108 SpA
- Stealth Rock
- Earthquake
- Scald
- Ice Punch
I really didn't like honey smacks (the food) until I got older and that is a similar case with this mon. I didn't want to use him at first but he is just so good. Great bulk and move pool and he is actually pretty fast. He is somewhat the glue to this team allowing me to take on Typholsion and pyroar much better. People really seem to be onto him tho. Grass knot Richu?? solar beam Crustle? HP grass Pyroar? I have to play him very smart and assume the worst. As far as move set earthquake for strong stab and a way to deal with poisons, scalds for stab and burn chance and ice punch is for the pesky birds that want to defog rocks away. Evs allow me to take 2 specs fire blast from Pyroar and deal heavy damage. I really like this set I grown to like good ol honey smacks.
Red Velvet (Slurpuff) (F) @ Sitrus Berry
Ability: Unburden
EVs: 4 HP / 252 SpA / 252 Spe
Modest Nature
- Calm Mind
- Dazzling Gleam
- Flamethrower
- Psychic
Red velvet has layers. The more you get to the center the sweeter it gets. I saw this set first on pokeaims youtube. Thought I would try it out and oh man is this thing powerful. After one calm mind not many things ohko her. Then you take the hit and get the unburden boost and tear though teams. The coverage on here is really nice too. Being able to hit fire types for neutral damage is wonderful. Another thing going for this set is that people might think is belly drum and save there steels for last to only get a flamethrower to the face. Modest for max damage. Overall a really good set and effective late game sweeper.
Lemon Square (Lickilicky) @ Leftovers
Ability: Oblivious
Shiny: Yes
EVs: 252 HP / 92 Atk / 108 Def / 44 SpD / 12 Spe
Calm Nature
- Wish
- Heal Bell
- Knock Off
- Power-Up Punch
The man himself! My favorite mon! Before you knock off this set (lol) consider what he can do. First let me break down the Ev's, usually for licky I do 252 hp then 128 in split defence but in this tier he comes in on special hits much better. So I made him a careful nature. 12 speed is there to make sure he always goes before other base 50's, which is very common in the nu tier. Now lets move onto the moveset. It looks like a support mon but its really a hidden set up sweeper. Wish is there to allude that I am no harm to the other team. Heal bell is really for licky but can also support the rest of the team. Knock off is great for hit and run. For example come in on a special attack.They will now bring in there fighting type, as this point you can knock off and go into plume are a better match up. When mid to late game arrives lickiy loves weak mon to get and easy PUP boost and hit things HARD for a plus 1 or 2 knock off. I don't care what mon you are you don't want to take that damage and lose your'e item. As far as unboosted moves Licky will only get ohkoed for anything but a strong close combat. Also with the new buff to his ability he can be taunted anymore which is wonderful.
Imagin this.. I bring in licky and the opponent brings in Weezing with out clearsmog. I have now achived plus 6 knock off. He can't willow be because I have heal bell. Sludge bomb will do next to nothing between wish and leafties recovery. By the time they figured out whats going on I’m plus 1 or 2 ready to disrupt what ever comes in next slow but I never said this set would be pretty haha. Some might consider it gimmicky but I like this set over in SD or full on wish pass set because I can play both sides of the fence with this particular set up.
Well today I bring you good but sad news. After considering the feedback I decided to add KlingKlang to my team and the results are scary. I more then doubled my score with this set. (I went to rank 84 to 24) Licky was really holding this team back but I'm glad I used him with mild success. So here it is....
Not Food (Klinklang) @ Leftovers
Ability: Clear Body
EVs: 128 HP / 216 Atk / 164 Spe
Adamant Nature
- Substitute
- Shift Gear
- Gear Grind
- Wild Charge
Now that I wrote this I kind want to try it out again because I feel like it handles the meta fairly well. At the same time I want to put this to rest. I want to go back to OU for a while and see how this tier changes over time. Thank you for checking out my RMT and I'm looking forward to the feedback. Threat list is really hard to say because this is kinda bulky offense. But strong ground types and the fast fire types give my team a hard time. Also vileplume is a big issue. Cya!
Team looses badly to Xatu baton teams and sun teams. I'm good with NU for now, time to take on UU. Hopefull I have just as positive results!
