Hi there guys, before I start I wanna state that this is my first RMT and that I also changed only recently to LC from OU, but LC is so damn fun to play that I felt home immediately and right now I'm ranking around 40 in ladder.
Now let's go down to business.
Dwebble @Oran Berry
Ability: Sturdy
EVs: 36 HP / 236 Atk / 236 Spe
Jolly Nature
- Stealth Rock
- Spikes
- Rock Blast
- Earthquake
Well, this little fella is my fave pokemon on LC right now, he's cute, he lays entry hazards like a boss and is so fast and offensive at the same time! There is little he can't set 1~2 layers of hazards and when I think it'll be impossible, his Rock Blast just kills stuff like crazy. Earthquake is there to check Chinchou and the occasional Croagunk that tries to revenge with Vacuum.
Mienfoo @Choice Scarf
Ability: Regenerator
EVs: 236 Atk / 236 Spe / 36 Def
Adamant Nature
- High Jump Kick
- Stone Edge
- U-Turn
- Knock Off
Foo is constantly my hero lol. I normally use him as a switch in when people bring their DD Scraggy into my Slowpoke and just OHKO him with High Jump Kick. He also one shots opposing Mienfoo and a slew of other stuff. His only trouble is with Ghost-types, the rest is just a matter of switching between him and Slowpoke.
Slowpoke @Eviolite
Ability: Regenerator
EVs: 116 HP / 236 Def / 36 SpA / 116 SpD
Bold Nature
-Fire Blast
-Surf
-Toxic
-Slack Off
This is my 2nd in command. He takes hits like a champ and just Slack Off the damage. He OHKO Ferroseed and counter pretty hard any Fighting-type that appears. His only glaring weakness is Dark-type mons (read Scraggy here) but that can be worked around with prediction. For example the most common Scraggy entrance is to U-Turn from Mienfoo, so everytime a Mienfoo switches into Slowpoke I just Slack Off and switch to my Mienfoo while they DD, proceeding to HJK and own them. Also Staryu and Chinchou gives him trouble but I'll cover them later.
Houndour @Life Orb
Ability:Early Bird
EVs: 196 Atk / 196 SpA / 36 SpD / 76 Spe - 0 HP IVs
Lonely Nature
-Fire Blast
-Sucker Punch
-Crunch
-Substitute
He's one of my revenge killers and ghost checkers. Even tho this one guy can be used to kill off anything slower than himself that doesn't resists his moves. I used to run Flash Fire, but since Hypnosis Ghastly is so common since Misdreavus got banned, Early Bird just seems far more useful. Not much else to talk about...
Croagunk @Life Orb
Ability: Dry Skin
EVs: 188 Atk / 188 SpA / 116 Spe - 0 HP IVs
Lonely Nature
-Fake Out
-Vacuum Wave
-Sucker Punch
-Earthquake
This guy used to be like the glue of my team, but I'm very unhappy with him right now. I use him mostly to finish off some near death thingy. The only thing this guy does insanely well and the only reason I keep him on the team is his Chinchou/Croagunk killing power. Every single Croagunk does his 2 priority combo on me while I EQ him to oblivion. But even then, my Muchlax does that, only better. I really don't know what to do with this guy.
Munchlax @Eviolite
Ability: Thick Fat
EVs:236 Atk / 36 Def / 236 SpD
Adamant Nature
-Return
-Pursuit
-Earthquake
-Fire Punch
My new glue! My difficulty dealing with Chinchou / Staryu / Dual Ghost cores made me think about a powerful special sponge that can kill them. Since I introduced him I had no problems against the aforementioned threats plus Croakung. Due to that, Croagunk started to feel so damn out of place in the team and now I don’t really know what to do with him.
Threat List:
-Acrobatic Drifloon: This tears my team apart like nothing else matters;
-Too many flyers: See above, but less;
-Too many waters;
-Boosting sweepers that get to boost too much;
-SubGastly: Used to tear me apart more before Munchlax, but still gives me nightmares if Munchlax goes down before doing his job;
-Other stuff I can’t remember;
What I'm searching for:
-Something to replace Croagunk, most likely something with good electric attacks;
-Maybe change Knock Off to HP Electric on Mienfoo if he still keeps his DD Scraggy killing skillz;
Now let's go down to business.
