The Description

- Cradily is the main pokemon on the team to help against both Bug and Fire because of the move Stealth Rock. Like most of the criticisms for my team, everyone says the team is weak to Fire but once the Stealth Rock goes up Celebi and Whimsicott can help finish the rest if everything goes right. Cradily is also the only pokemo that can beat the Heatran on a Steel Monotype team with the Earthquake as most Heatran will not stay in against a Celebi and the rest lose to it. Cradily is a valuable pokemon and a must use for the team.

- Mega Abomasnow is the defeater of Flying Monotype teams, outside of Skarmory's. You do not usually see Mega Abomasnow because of the really low speed and not many other pokemon to take advantage of the possible Trick Room team. The SD Physical set was chosen because as the team progresses, the team needed a more offensive physical pokemon. Lastly, Mega Abo is the only pokemon on the team to use a priority move because there is no Shiftry or something like that.

- Whimsicott was chosen because most of the Grass teams that have been made are extremely weak to both Dark and Fighting teams, mainly Fighting. The Pixie Plate is the favorite item for the team because it gives the main move a boost in power while being able to use Stun Spore if needed. Whimsicott may not look useful offensively against Fire Monotype but using Stun Spore helps a lot because of the amount of faster pokemon people typically use. Giga Drain is there for the recovery and the STAB Grass type move.

- This Celebi set is what I have been using since the beginning of X/Y to help against Steel, Poison, etc.. and has proven its worth. Leaf Storm can be switched out with Giga Drain if the user wanted a healing option to keep Celebi in a little longer due to the fact of the Life Orb. This pokemon may not be as valuable as Whimsicott for using against fighting but it is still nice to have nonetheless. Another option is to add Healing Wish on instead of the Hidden Power Fire so that you can replenish a much needed pokemon.

- Rotom-Cut is the Mega Pinsir check for the team. It helps prevent a sweep not only by tusing Will-o-wisp but it can also use Volt Switch to potentially knock it out for the momentum. Move threats that Rotom can help against are things like Hawlucha which can not defeat Rotom in one shot unless the situation is really poor. Pain Split is only here to gain back some HP if needed and the Leaf Storm is there just because.

- Chesnaught is the final pokemon to go against more bulkier teams like a Normal Monotype or to use as a defensive monster against things like Dragon Monotype. Chesnaught can stall with the Leech Seed + Spiky Shield combination and can limit switch ins using Spikes. The EV spread is meant to make it more of a mixed wall to help support both the Rotom and the Cradily if either of the need help and Chesnaught can do something about it.

Thanks to Zukushiku for testing out the team!

Description

Mega Pinsir is a very strong wallbreaker with a decent amount of Speed. Swords Dance helps it boost it's Attack to incredible levels and do major damage to the opposing team. Frustration and Quick Attack are Mega Pinsir's two STAB Flying moves. Quick Attack is a STAB priority move that Mega Pinsir can spam after it sets up which is why it's Adamant nature and Frustration is a very strong attack that Mega Pinsir can abuse against slower Pokemon. Close Combat is a nice coverage option that hits things that resist Mega Pinsir's STAB such as Steel and Rock types. Mega Pinsir is a great answer to Fighting which the team otherwise struggles with.

Crustle is one of the Pokemon that this core requires. A Shell Smash set doubles it's Speed and Attack, turning it into a sweeper and allowing it to take on Flying and Fire, one of Bug's weaknesses. A Lum Berry is used to cure status that could cripple it's sweep.

Volcarona is a dangerous set-up sweeper with Quiver Dance and has longevity to support the sweep thanks to Roost and it's decent bulk. HP Ground is for Heatran and Rock types. The EVs allow it to live a V-Create from Choice Scarf Victini at full.

Galvantula has the ability to set up Sticky Webs which is very nice to support the rest of the team. It has a Focus Sash so the webs are guaranteed. It's Electric typing it allow it to be a check to Flying types with it's powerful STAB Electric move Thunder which won't miss as much thanks to it's Compound Eyes ability. Hidden Power Ice is for Pokemon that are x4 weak to it, as they usually deal with Galvantula quite well. These include Landorus, Gliscor and Garchomp.

Forretress is a bulky hazard stacker with access to Stealth Rock and Spikes and also serves a Rapid Spin user which Bug really appreciates. Volt Switch is for gaining momentum and Red Card + Sturdy allow it to stop set-up sweepers.

Durant is the second Pokemon of the core. It's decent Attack stat combined with Hustle allow it to hit very hard. Iron Head and X-Scissor are it's two STAB moves which it can spam unless there's a Pokemon that resists them in which is why Superpower and Rock Slide are there. It's a Choice Scarf variant that checks faster threats to Bug or set-up sweepers such as Mega Gyarados which Choice Scarf Durant outspeeds at +1 and kills it with X-Scissor.

Description

This oddly enough was a team I had prior to this being released (although Fluxx and I have similar mons, a few of them are pretty different).

Druant (aka Kevin) is a pretty underrated mon (even though the accuracy drop from Hustle can be annoying). Thanks to Choice Scarf it sits at a pretty good speed tier, and its attack boosted by Hustle is no laughing matter. Iron Head and X-Scissor are your main STABs. Rock Slide is able to check Victini after SR, as well as Mega Charizard Y and +1 Volcarona. Superpower is to hit Steel (primarily Heatran) that resist the other 3 attacks).

Crustle I decided to take a different route. Lab8 Moth had a similar set on his Bug Team, so I decided to snatch it to use here. It's my SR setter, and a general check to physical threats. Once Crustle is below 25% (typically activating Sturdy to allow it to live with 1 HP), Custap Berry activates, so it has +1 priority on any attack the next turn, which can be rpetty handy. Knock Off is for general utility, and as the name implies, Knocks Off items (this is where Custap comes in handy the most).

Mega Pinsir was the Mega I decided to use early on. Since I'm not running Sticky Webs, I preferred to have someone fast, and I don't want to run Scizor because I already have Durant and Forretress (I also wanted solid priority). Pinsir is incredibly strong, sitting at a fair speed tier upon Mega Evolution, and Aerialate gives it reliable Flying STABs in its artillery. The reason I didn't wanna run Moxie, was because I already had SD, and mons with intimidate like to switch into it (namely Lando-T) and take a weakened attack. Hyper Cutter prevents attack drops, so I opted for that. Close Combat is used over EQ because I needed another Fighting STAB, and I also wanted a mon that could threaten Rock, since I'm lacking Heracross.

Forretress is my physical defensive wall, and a secondary Hazard Setter. Gyro Ball is to hit mons much faster than it hard, Volt Switch is to keep momentum (its always good to keep momentum on an offensive type like Bug), Rapid Spin is to get rid of Hazards on my side (primarily SR), and Toxic Spikes is to spread the oh-so annoying Poison status (this was better to handle walls compared to Spikes).

Volcarona I'm running a pretty standard Physically Defensive set, with HP Ground for neutral coverage, and Fiery Dance as a primary STAB. Quiver Dance allows it to sweep (late game preferably), and Roost is to keep its health up while boosting. Lum Berry is to prevent it from getting statused once.

Galvantula was the last mon I decided on. I wanted a fast Special Attacker so I didn't have to rely on only Volcarona (who starts fairly slow). Yanmega I felt was too similar for Pinsir, so I opted for an Offensive Galvantula set (this is especially helpful in Flying and Water matchups). Thunder is the main STAB with ~93 accuracy thanks to Compound Eyes, and a nice chance to paralyse. Energy Ball is a reliable coverage attack that can hit Ground/Water mons super effectively (if you feel you need to, Sticky Web could be put in as opposed to that). HP Ice is to hit Garchomp, Dragonite, and Landorus 4x (and usually ensure a KO). Volt Switch allows it to keep momentum while acting as a second Electric STAB.

Extending the teambuilding date to 5/31, and the Voting date to 6/3. Poll is up right now! Pick from Flying, Ground, and Normal.

Description

Durant: With hustle this mon already hits hard but with band almost nothing is a switch in, also haveing a good speed teir out speeding base 108s.
Crustle: A good set up sweeper if used at the right time haveing Earthquake and Rock Blast make it have good coverage for threats of the type such as heatran and Most flying mons.
Forretress: A good hazard stack mon with rapid spin nice for harming verry rocks or Spikes weak mons like Charizard and Dragonite aswell as breaking sashes to threats like breloom and Infernape.
Galvantula: Having Sticky webs for this team since it isn't exactly fast baring Durant will allow my slow shell smash sweeper Crustle beat some mons it couldn't before like terrakion and Allow Slower mons like Heracross to out speed and hit mons that it couldn't with its subpar speed.
Mega-Heracross: With Bullet Seed rock blast and CC Mega hera hits alot of mons verry hard that bug doesn't like faceing Like most rock mons, Zapdos and Skarmory Who get either 2ko after rocks or get Knocked out by Bullet Seed or rock blast.
Yanmega: The core has a fighting weakness so I added a mon that can out speed most after +1 hitting them with air slash and atleast 2ko also helps beat mons that arnt effected by Sticky webs like latios and latias.

Durant: literally the frame i saw it, i knew i had to use power herb dig because i felt that this team would be weak to heatran. i used a sub set because setting up with durant is optimal in many scenarios especially considering you have a mega scizor chilling in back.
Crustle: the optimal pick for a suicide lead, i knew i wanted to use it as a spike-stacking lead to help my trusty durant sweep. knock off for knocking off items, stone edge for stone edging things.
Volcarona: the best set for volcarona, i decided immediately that i wanted to straight up fold to offensive fire types with even a moderate amount of speed. Giga Drain no bulk was the pick!
Scizor: i decided that i wanted to use scizor on bug, it gets hte exact same support it gets on steel and its on an even better type.
Pinsir: i really wanted to win this competition so i made it dual mega. this is your electric counter because sometimes giga drain volcarona just isnt enough.
Galvantula: i realized that i didnt have any special attackers. i already had crustle for a suicide lead so i elected to use life orb 4 attacks to help with my special presence

I actually wanna make a quick suggestion to you. Sweeping without a means of hazard control (which Bug desperately needs bc it's weak to SR, especially Volcarona) is very hard to pull off. With that said, you may want to try an Offensive Mega Scizor set with Defog. Your lacking Fighting Coverage, so Superpower may be handy to have. Otherwise, this looks like a really fun team dude, great job!
