[Arvandor]

I ****ing hate the ****ing BT. Unbeleivable amounts of hacking. Oh well, I got 3 more wins than previous with this team.

Streak of 57
Dragonite@Lum Berry
Adamant: 252 attk, 200 speed, 58 hp
Dragon Dance
Outrage
Earthquake
Fire Blast

Milotic@Leftovers
Bold: 252 hp, 158 def, 100 sp def
Ice Beam
Surf
Hypnosis
Recover

Weavile@Focus Sash
Adamant: 252 attk, 252 speed, 6 hp
Swords Dance
Ice Punch
Night Slash
Brick Break

Lead with Dragonite, DD once, and sweep. If I thought an ice attack was coming in, switch to Milotic, sleep it, then either try to kill it (other waters were problematic) or risk a switch to Weavile then SD and sweep. I decided to switch Milotic for Bronzong on the last set of matches, since Stone Edge generally OHKO's Dragonite, and Milotic can't take many of them either, but then something like Infernape or the Slowkings running flamethrower would wreck me as I soon found out =P My loss went like this.

Go Dragonite!
Enemy sends Slowking!
Go Bronzong!
Slowking uses ice beam, negligible damage (I think leftovers healed it all back)
Slowking uses flamethrower, 40% damage
Bronzong uses Toxic, Slowking is badly poisoned
Slowing uses flamethrower, 40% damage
Bronzong uses Rest, fully healed
Three flamethrowers later, Bronzong is done for
Go Weavile!
Weavile uses Swords Dance
Slowking uses flamethrower, Weavile holds on with its Focus Sash
Slowking finally goes down from its poison. (or maybe I had to Night Slash it... I don't remember, but either way...)
Enemy sends out Waillord
Weavile uses Night Slash *prays for crit*... 90% damage, no such luck
Waillord uses something, I don't remember, and Weavile dies from it.
Go Dragonite!
Waillord quick claw hax and OHKO's with Ice Beam. Sonofa *****!!!!!!!

Porygon-Z died to Alakazam's Focus Blast.
Salamence owned Alakazam with Dragon Claw
Alakazam fainted
Opponent let out Skarmory.
Salamence Dragon Clawed it 4-5 times.
Skarmory fainted
Opponent sent out Froslass.
Salamence Dragon Clawed it to red health
Froslass OHKOed Salamence with Ice Beam
Milotic was sent out.
Froslass uses Destiny Bond
Milotic uses Surf
Both dies. I still lose.

 

[VashTheStampede]

How far do you think a standard CB-Tar (lead), SD Street Shark, and Scarf'd Togekiss will get me? I listed the Toge earlier if anybody want's to check. Also, I am replacing Ancient Power - what should I put there instead?

 

[RaikouLover]

Froslass uses Destiny Bond
Milotic uses Surf
Both dies. I still lose.

I thought Destiny Bond on last pokemon automatically meant the user loses... Wow the computer cheats

 

[Suicune137]

Still going, fought battle 84 last.

Gyrados@Leftovers
Adamant Nature
Evs: 212 HP, 16 Atk, 180 Def, 100 Speed
Dragon Dance
Earthquake
Ice Fang
Taunt

Tyranitar@Expert Belt
Adamant Nature
6 Hp/ 252 Attack/ 252 Spd
Dragon Dance
Earthquake
Stone Edge
Crunch

Heatran@Choice Scarf
Rash Nature
6HP/252spatk/252spd
Overheat
Dragon Pulse
Earth Power
Explosion

Pretty decent team. None of the battle gave me to much troubles as heatran usually takes out what threatens the most and can even be used as revenge killer.


Dragonite did give me troubles though especially if my Ice fang missed and it's Dragon Rush don't. So do Electivires.

 

[Cyl3x]

I thought Destiny Bond on last pokemon automatically meant the user loses... Wow the computer cheats

It's kind of evil that way. Instead of letting you lose, they should make you battle the person again or something.

 

[TheMaster42]

I thought Destiny Bond on last pokemon automatically meant the user loses... Wow the computer cheats.

You died, so your streak is ended.

 

[Mr.Someone]

Well, I made it to 105 wins (haven't continued on the streak) with this team:

Azelf @ Focus Sash
Nasty Plot
Psychic
Flamethrower
Grass Knot

Garchomp @ Life Orb
Earthquake
Stone Edge
Dragon Claw
Swords Dance

Gyarados @ Lefties
Taunt
Waterfall
Stone Edge

LIES!!!! lol. Jirachi is banned from BT.

as for me....
BT level 47

Salamence@Choiceband
Adamant
252 EV spread
Dragon Claw
Earthquake
Aerial Ace
Fire Blast

Dragon Claw is capable of 0hko on almost all pokemon not resistant.

Heracross@Burn Orb
Jolly
252 EV spread
Megahorn
Close Combat
Night Slash
Rock Slide

If Salamence dies, Heracross goes in for the finishing blow. Burn orb activates and so does Guts.

Cresselia@Leftovers
Calm Nature
252hp and defenses??? same amount of def as sdef
Chargebeam
Icebeam
Rest
Sleeptalk

I switch to Cresselia when the 2 sweepers are ineffective. Cresselia has only died once. Pretty decent with rest. She's good, although chargebeam sweeping takes a long time.

Salamence was killed by..i forgot. Heracross was killed by Gallade(foe's last poke), i pressed the wrong button and chose NightSlash and was KO'd by PsychoCut. Cresselia came in to icebeam but Gallade used Destiny Bond and brought her down with him.

 

[TheMaster42]

LIES!!!! lol. Jirachi is banned from BT.

Confirmed...!


Don't be a lamer and post lying teams. -_-

 

[Kier]

Breloom @ Focus Sash
Poison Heal
Adamant
6 HP / 252 ATK / 252 SPD
- Spore
- Focus Punch
- Seed Bomb
- Stone Edge

Standard. Focus Sash guarantees at least one sleeping opponent, leaving Breloom free to FP with impunity. He handles annoyers well, absorbing Toxic and putting them to sleep before they DT up.

Magnezone @ Leftovers
Sturdy
Docile
100 HP / 252 SPATK / 156 SPDEF
- Thunderbolt
- Hidden Power Ice
- Thunder Wave
- Explosion

Thunder Wave helps my team a lot, since as a whole, it's pretty slow. Explosion takes care of Walls like Cresselia, which I have problems with. Sturdy also helps with those cheap OHKO users. I love using this guy, but HP Ice was a bitch to breed for.

Gyarados @ Concentration Band
Intimidate
Adamant
6 HP / 252 ATK / 252 SPD
- Waterfall
- Ice Fang
- Earthquake
- Dragon Dance

Standard again, but he rips things apart. I needed an EQ user.


I finished making this team just recently, but so far it's undefeated at 42 wins.

 

[drtomoe123]

Right now I'm using:

Died @ 36, haha

Tauros @ Choice Band
Intimidate
Jolly
-Return
-Stone Edge
-Earthquake
-Pursuit

Electivire @ Life Orb
Motor Drive
Lonely
-Cross Chop
-Fire Punch
-Ice Punch
-Thunder Punch

Gengar @ Choice Specs
Levitate
Modest
-Energy Ball
-Shadow Ball
-Dark Pulse
-Thunderbolt

Tauros is pretty much able to take anything down in at least one or two two hits, but usually when I use Return, a ghost or steel shows up, or when I use EQ, a flying type or a Levitating Pokemon shows up, haha. The main problem is everyone else's, it either gets DTed to death, OHKO, frozen/asleep/attracted and I have to swtich out. The thing that really gets me is sleep...a freaking Wigglytuff took out my entire team because they would NEVER wake up!

 

[aquasuicune]

I completed battle 42 on doubles with this team:

Yanmega@wide lens (lead 1)
Mild

Bug Buzz
Protect

Porygon-Z@life orb (Lead 2)
Modest
Tri-Attack
Ice Beam
Thunderbolt
Dark Pulse

Gallade@expert belt
Adamant
Leaf Blade
Psycho Cutter (That sounds so emo)
Close Combat
Swords dance

Cresselia@leftovers
Bold
Rest
Sleep Talk
Ice Beam
Charge Beam

 

[Expert Evan]

Great to see some of my originally bred pokemon have had success in streaks of 50 and beyond. I shall attempt to extend my streak with Juuka's heatran along with gyarados & electivire so long as I don't come across anymore focus band rapidash with horn drill f**k.

 

[Jumpman16]

Suicune137 this is kind of not the kind of thread I want dishonest people in, so I'd appreciate it if you wouldn't post again.

Anyway I'm using this team:

Bronzong @ Sitrus Berry ** MatsuZzaka
Ability: Levitate
Nature: Relaxed
- Gyro Ball
- Earthquake
- Stealth Rock
- Hypnosis

Gyarados @ Leftovers ** I'll lead...
Nature: Adamant
- Waterfall
- Return
- Dragon Dance
- Taunt

Cresselia @ Chesto Berry ** Claire
Nature: Quiet
- Psychic
- Ice Beam
- Calm Mind
- Rest

I'm at 70 wins now but I've only used this team for like two rounds, but I'm sticking with it. The idea is basically that Focus Sash can go to hell, and that with a Stealth Rock up, the only thing that can beat my bulky Gyarados after 3+ DDs — which 384HP, 234Def, Taunt, Leftovers and Bronzong's Hypnosis make a very attainable goal — is *maybe* Brightpowder and *maybe* Quick Claw, which you can pretty much never do much about. Cress is there for obvious special sponging but I'm getting kind of tired of Shadow Ball stuff so I may go with Blissey ultimately.

 

[Dan Dan]

I just beat Palmer's second team with these 3 beasts:

Garchomp@Life Orb
Ability: Sand Veil
Nature: Jolly
-Swords Dance
-Earthquake
-Outrage
-Fire Fang

Gyarados @ Mystic Water
Ability: Intimidate
Nature: Adamant
- Waterfall
- Stone Edge
- Dragon Dance
- Taunt

Metagross@Lum Berry
Ability: Clear Body
Nature: Adamant
-Agility
-Meteor Mash
-ThunderPunch
-Earthquake

Nothing so far has really caused me any trouble =/

 

[TheMaster42]

All the teams listed so far have EV-spreads as well. Jumpman16, Dan Dan, and others... I guess the pros don't like to reveal their EV-spreads? I want to include your teams, but I didn't want to add ones without any spreads. Any way to compromise?

 

[Blakos Kyros]

Died at 45 with this team to OHKO hax.

Togekiss
Serene Grace
modest
252 sp. atk/252 speed
-Air Slash
-Aura Sphere
-Thunder Wave
-Sweet kiss

Garchomp
Sand Veil
Adamant
252 atk/252 speed
Life Orb
-Crunch
-Earthquake
-Dragon Claw
-Fire fang

Milotic
Marvel Scale
Calm
252 HP/252 sp. atk
Lefties
-Toxic
-Recover
-Ice Beam
-Surf

I may try out a new team next run.

 

[Suicune137]

Confirmed...!


Don't be a lamer and post lying teams. -_-

Oops, that was actually supposed to be DD tyranitar. I dunno where I got the Jirachi from. I'm serious.
This is awkward. Now you all think I'm lying lol

 

[YJiang]

Lol because you probably were lying in order to look good or something :/

Anyway, a little update (like you care). Died at Level 61 because of a stupid, stupid, STUPID STUPID STUPID error with Empoleon.

 

[Suicune137]

Lol because you probably were lying in order to look good or something :/

No, seriously. I know I had Jirachi in my mind and I was looking in the Jirachi analysis that day. But yeah...that was my mistake.

 

[Dr. Bolty]

I haven't been keeping track of the exact number of wins, but I've gotten far enough to get one 7 point round in the single-player Doubles challenge with this team (still haven't lost, so I might lose the next round for all I know):

-Electivire @ Life Orb
Adamant, 252 Atk/252 Spd/4 HP
-Thunderpunch
-Earthquake
-Fire Punch (I was too lazy to breed for Cross Chop)
-Ice Punch

-Salamence @ Choice Specs
Modest, 252 SpAtk/252 Spd/4 HP
-Draco Meteor
-Dragon Pulse
-Flamethrower
-Fly (again, was too lazy to do the breeding correctly, and man do I regret it in this case - it is useful in-game, though)

-Empoleon @ Leftovers
Calm, 252 HP/252 SpDef/4 SpAtk
-Ice Beam
-Surf
-Stealth Rock
-Roar

Rhyperior @ Shell Bell
Adamant, 252 HP/80 Atk/176 Def
-Substitute
-Megahorn
-Earthquake
-Stone Edge

Not a very well put-together team, admittedly, but it works in the Battle Tower. Basically, start with Salamence and Electivire - hit something super-effective and hit the other opponent with Dragon Pulse for powerful neutral damage. When in doubt, Earthquake everything and Dragon Pulse the stronger opponent. Rhyperior and Empoleon wait in the wings with impressive defensive versatility (despite this team's glaring Ground weakness). Surf is pretty much a suicide desperation move, but it works (especially if done alongside Salamence, who resists it), mostly Empoleon Ice Beams everything while its partner deals out the big damage.

Toughest team so far was probably the Trick Room team with Gallade and Steelix - the Gallade turned out to be slower than Empoleon and Rhyperior, annoyingly.

 

[Shank]

I just beat Palmer the second time:

Alakazam@Choice specs
Modest nature
252spd/ 252spatk/ 4def
-Psychic
-Grass knot
-Shadow Ball
-Focus Blast

Metagross@Leftovers
Adamant Nature
252atk/ 100hp /100spd/ 58spdef
-Meteor Mash
-Earthquake
-Explosion
-Agility

Garchomp@Life Orb
Jolly Nature
252atk/ 252spd/ 4hp
-Earthquake
-Swords Dance
-Stone Edge
-Fire Fang.

I'm pretty sure I can make it to 100, or does it get a lot harder?
It seems pretty easy for now.

 

[Cyl3x]

My 2-player status:

Metagross@Muscle Band
Adamant nature
EVs: 252 Atk, 252 spd, 4 HP
-Earthquake
-Meteor Mash
-Agility
-Magnet Rise

Salamence@Choice Band
Adamant Nature
EVs: 252 Atk, 252 Spd, 4 HP
-Earthquake
-Dragon claw
-Fire Blast
-Stone Edge

Blissey@Leftovers
Bold nature
EVs: 252 HP, 252 Def, 4 SAtk
-Ice Beam
-Aromatherapy
-Seismic toss
-Softboiled

Starmie@Life orb
Modest nature
EVs: 252 SAtk, 252 Spd, 4 HP
-Recover
-Ice Beam
-Thunderbolt
-Surf

So far at fight 56 ;D

Strategy: Metagross magnet rises. Salamence EQ's, Metagross EQ's everyone dies. Ice Beams are handled by starmie and Blissey. Life orb recoil from starmie is gone with the aid of recover. Blissey uses Aromatherapy to prevent crippling on this team.
