Hello, laddies and gentleman, totor is back with a heavy offensive toxic spikes team. I have started playing pokemon since DPP, and i have always used teams based on residuals dammage to ladder. I remember the combo of tyranitar+excadrill which was the start of all of my teams in BW and some players such as "croas", "dracomaster sasha", "mysterion", "donkey", "go10","private" in PO server. Around the half of BW's period i started laddering in PS server. I can remember a sand team with ferro / powdown / ho-oh/ water arceus / excadrill / giratina which was peaked first at this time, as well as the full baton pass team of daenys in XY. This XY generation reduces the number of turns of sandstorm, making more difficult to abuse sand combos in ubers. At this time i considered an other form of residual dammage : toxic spikes. I was watching many replays of sweep and peculiarly his stall rain with gira-o/ tentacruel / ferrothorn/ omastar / psy arceus/ kyogre defensive. This helps me understand how Toxic Spikes is very threatening in XY Ubers and it is the same in ORAS Ubers : constant damage from poison increases pressure on defensive teams to stay healthy as well as the pressure on dangerous set up sweepers in Ubers. making them easier to weaken and revenge kill. Take advatage of this boon into an offensive team has been a real challenge for me and even with the ideas provided by other players, i took one year to build my own team (one can watch "totor returns" and "senor totor" replays on PS server).
The particularity of this team is to show how sub cm ghost arceus, an underrated set can be deadly by its own. This surprise factor helps me a lot in somewhat risky situations (replays section). I have reached the 4 th place on the ladder with 1849 points thaks to this team. At first glance, for the opponent, this team seems to be standard with an e -killer as always, but the only fact that sub cm ghost arceus is here make it superior and requires more experience to choose when arceus typing has to been revealed.
I have already seen pokemon has a chess game. No exceptions will be made here with : cloyster the pawn ; primal Groudon, the Rook; deoxys-a, the bishop; arceus ghost, the Knight; mega salamence, the King and xerneas, the Queen. Set the toxic spikes and the stealth rock as soon as possible thanks to the pawn and the Rook, weaken opponents by forcing switches for paving the way to our set up sweepers : the knight and the king and our revenge killers the bishop and the Queen. This strategy is the key of the success of the team! So let's come into the Scottish castle to better discover the protagonists!
I wanted to build a toxic spikes team around substitute calm mind ghost arceus and to put a lot of pressure offensively : hence the choice of cloyster has a toxic setter. In return Ghost arceus provides spinblocking ability versus some spinners stay available : smeargle, excadrill, the rare foretress and tentacruel. In addition Toxic Spikes help pressure support Arceus formes (peculiarly water, dragon) to force them to Recover and subsequently allow Ghost Arceus to get a Calm Mind boost and then a Substitute.
I had a huge weakness to dark and i needed a reliable answer versus darkrai which is in most teams and a setter of stealth rock. Mega Diancie checks Darkrai and Yveltal reliably, sets Stealth Rock and act as an effective anti-lead to Deoxys-S, Darkrai and sleep leads. Thanks to protect and bounce ability it can take advantage of toxic spikes damage and can bounce back hazards and status which is useful in stal against walls such as lugia.
I needed a wall to deal with strong physical threats such as ho_oh, e-killer, mega kangourex, mega salamence ... In addition i run u turn +toxic to place my teammates in order to force switches and cripple common switch-ins like fairies or flying mons respectively.
A strong offensive mon was required to deal with stall better: sword dance primal don fits this role very good and can puts major holes in many team at middle or late game. Primal groudon benefits from mega diancie's ability to threaten Darkrai and Yveltal. In return primal groudon deals with annoying steels like aegislash ferrothorn skarmory dialga, klefky.
A priority mon, a second breaker of stall which can severely dents pokemons like primals, defensive arceus forms is very appreciable to abuse of cthe toxic spikes provided by cloyster. Deoxys-a fulfills those roles. In addition, it benefits from ghost arceus absorbing common normal priorities and slow u-turn yveltal to come on the battlefield. This is the first version of the team, with cloyster, the pawn ; primal Groudon, the Rook; deoxys-a, the bishop; arceus ghost, the Knight; mega salamence, the King and xerneas, the Queen.
A second version has been considered to test the synergy with scarf xerneas and mega mence with the other members; those changes drop Yveltal the King of taking physical hits to mega salamence, the King of ubers and mega diancie, the Queen of stones to xerneas, the Queen of scarf in Ubers. Xerneas provides more speed and special power at the cost of staying a target for primal groudon as well as diancie is and oppening a room for ho-oh which both are countered by Mega salamence. As special Ghost Arceus really struggles against ho_oh, it synergizes well with mega salamence which can even grab a burn on the switch and proceed to sweep thanks to facade. In return ghost arceus checks strong special sweepers such as lati@s, giratina-o, and lugia and skarm and can set substitute in face of water,dragon,rock arceus ones of his biggest threats. Primal Groudon helps sub Calm Mind Ghost arceus’ placement by providing stealth rock support.
Now we expose the set details of the second version of this toxic spikes team. As the two versions has fourth same sets the reader can refer to both this section and the previous one if he attempts to experiment he first version. So let's me teach you the rules of this peculiar chess game.

The Pawn (Cloyster) @ Focus Sash
Ability: Skill Link
EVs: 252 Atk / 4 Def / 252 Spe
Jolly Nature
- Toxic Spikes
- Icicle Spear
- Rapid Spin
- Shell Smash
Main role
The pawn is the toxic spikes setter the rapid spinner and a potentially sweeper if it can get a free shell mash boost. Usually used as a lead, it is one of the most offensively-oriented toxic spikes setter in the uber metagame and requires prediction and very aggressive play in order to keep the field free of entry hazards : switch directly into potential entry hazard setters such as primal groudon dialga in order to preserve the focus sash and to proceed to spin. In addition The pawn has to deal as much damage as possible to those bulky hazards setter to the point where deoxys-a can reliably ko them and preventing entry hazards from being set up. Nevertheless, this hazards work essentially when at least half of the opponent team is grounded : the dominance of p don increases the use of flying and levitate mons, and in the absence of poison mons suchs as scolipede, toxic arceus, mega gengar, tentacruel. In that case cloyster is not useless and can be used at a potent sweeper.The Pawn (Cloyster) @ Focus Sash
Ability: Skill Link
EVs: 252 Atk / 4 Def / 252 Spe
Jolly Nature
- Toxic Spikes
- Icicle Spear
- Rapid Spin
- Shell Smash
Main role
The pawn is typically used as a lead which can beat most opposing entry hazard leads, such as Deoxys-S and Deoxys-A, sash exca or suicide leads : rayq sash, or can outspeed and wear down bulky entry hazard setters such as Primal Groudon or Dialga for the next Pokemon to take them out. He has to watch for sleep leads such as Darkrai and Smeargle, or entry hazard setters that can beat it, such as the rare Forretress and tentacruel. The pawn can deals with common deffogers such as lati@s, gira and gira-o, but it struggles against bulky Defoggers that can shrug off its STAB, such as defensive Arceus forms (steel, water pogre) and Scizor.
Icicle Spear is a ice STAB attack, with 125 base power thanks to as Skill Link and it has good coverage in Ubers, dealing super effective damage to Giratina giratina-o ,the most common spinblockers and defoggers. Shell Smash allows The pawn to aggressively pressure the opposing team provided its main checks are over, but Explosion can be used to pseudo-spinblock or to deal damage to Pokemon such as p-Kyogre or water arceus.
Maximum Attack and Speed investment alongside a jolly nature allow The pawn to optimally fulfill its role, by outpacing bulky entry hazard users and walls sucha s lugia, even the entire unboosted metagame after a shell mash boost. Focus Sash is the item of a suicide lead : it helps spinning or win a turn of setup against faster, more powerful foes. At least, it also lets The pawn acts as an emergency check to dangerous setup sweepers such as Mega Salamence, landorus therian, and Geomancy Xerneas.

Main Role:
The Rook's role is to set up Stealth Rock reliably (it can be used as a lead when half of the opponent's team is immune to toxic spikes) ,to apply offensive pressure by forcing switches, checking xerneas and annoying steels.The Rook (Groudon) @ Red Orb
Ability: Drought
Shiny: Yes
EVs: 176 Atk / 248 SpD / 84 Spe
Adamant Nature
- Stealth Rock
- Precipice Blades
- Dragon Tail
- Lava Plume
Main Role:
Thanks to its versatility, and great offensive capacities, The Rook sets Stealth Rock reliably. This Rook is as mandatory in all teams as the castle towers' are. As a Xerneas check The Rook perfoms well : the special defense investment let it take any hit from Xerneas evn after stealth rock damage and he retaliates with a pothe werful Precipice Blades provided you hasn't missed. In this process The Rook paves the way for the bishop's Extreme Speed to revenge kill Xerneas. The Rook is also a decent check to Primal Kyogre, because it can switch in and threaten it with Precipice Blades while not taking a huge amount of damage from Ice Beam.
Precipice Blades is The Rook's strongest STAB attack, despite his accuracy. Dragon Tail synergizes well with Toxic Spikes, shuffling the opposing team and spreading poison while also allowing The Rook to phaze setup sweepers : arceus formes special and physical mega mence, and gets crucial chip damage on Defoggers such as Latios, Latias, and Giratina-O on the switch. Stealth Rock is mandatory on every team and it enables the team to break through defensive threats such as Lugia more easily. 84 Speed EVs allow The Rook to outspeed neutral-natured, uninvested base 100 Speed Pokemon. 176+ atk is a good benchmark to put xerneas into range of the bishop's espeed after hazards damage The rest : 248 ev's goes into Special Defense to allow The Rook to take hits from Xerneas and Primal Kyogre better. The EV spread lives a Draco Meteor from Timid Latios at full HP. Lava Plume is the safest move to deal with steels and to prevent miss predictions. The 30% chance of burn can torments devoted counters such as mega sableye, lugia or yveltal and can discourage switch-ins like Landorus-Therian.

The Knight(Arceus-Ghost) @ Spooky Plate
Ability: Multitype
EVs: 248 HP / 8 Def / 252 Spe
Timid Nature
IVs: 0 Atk
-Substitute
- Calm Mind
- Judgment
- Focus Blast
Main role
After the pawn’s duty is achieved, the knight provides spinblocking ability, takes care of common levitate defoggers and forces switches. As a bonus he provides the team a middle or late game sweeper on condition that his checks are over.The Knight(Arceus-Ghost) @ Spooky Plate
Ability: Multitype
EVs: 248 HP / 8 Def / 252 Spe
Timid Nature
IVs: 0 Atk
-Substitute
- Calm Mind
- Judgment
- Focus Blast
Main role
A good way to set an effective substitute is to forces switches, provided all checks to The Knight are over, especially darkceus, yveltal darkrai. Under substitute it can kills darkrai with focus blast. Some targets of The Knight are bronzong, aegislash, lati@s, giratina-o, lo mewtwo, mega mewtwo-X, mega luke. In addition, he can be used to dammage dialga, skarmory which keeps off some pressure on The Rook devoted to kill annoying steels. Against stall team substitute over a status move and set up calm mind this mon can deal with waterceus, lugia (if multiscale is broken), giratina provided the pink blocks (be carefull of snatch) are over. You have to analyse when arceus ghost will be the most effective : generally it is at middle or late game sweep.
Calm Mind Allows The Knight to boost its Special Attack and Special Defense simultaneously, providing it with potential to sweep while making it harder for special attackers to break through. Judgment is a reliable 120-Base Power STAB move thanks to spooky plate, and Focus Blast provides The Knight with perfect coverage, notably allowing it to hit Extreme Killer Arceus and Kangaskhan while denting switch-ins such as Tyranitar or darkrai. Substitute helps protect The Knight from crippling status moves such as Thunder Wave and Toxic, will o wisp (the two latters put a timer to his sweep); the move can also be used to help counteract or even scout for aggressive play, which is generally much safer than just firing off Focus Blast.
Maximum HP and Speed EVs alongside a Timid nature give The Knight good bulk and let it ties with opposing Arceus formes such as Extreme Killer Arceus and defensive ones.

The bishop(Deoxys-Attack) @ Life Orb
Ability: Pressure
EVs: 20 Atk / 252 SpA / 236 Spe
Rash Nature
- Psycho Boost
- Ice Beam
- Superpower
- Extreme Speed
Main role
Despite of the obvious bishop's frailty, he is an outrageous mix sweeper, stall breaker, late-game cleaner, and a revenge killer all in one. His fearsome power is behind most wins. Hence his name.The bishop(Deoxys-Attack) @ Life Orb
Ability: Pressure
EVs: 20 Atk / 252 SpA / 236 Spe
Rash Nature
- Psycho Boost
- Ice Beam
- Superpower
- Extreme Speed
Main role
Send out teammates to weaken opposing threats, then bring out The bishop to KO the rest with Psycho Boost or the appropriate move : thanks to his speed and his raw power increased by life orb effect, it can dig depth gap in stall teams. The fearsome bishop's power causes many switches : priority users such as e-killer, giratina-o yveltal ; scarf users like xerneas, what synergizes well with both toxic spikes and stealth rock.
Its main STAB move, Psycho Boost, puts a major dent into every Pokémon that isn't a Dark-, Psychic-, or Steel-type. Superpower deals with darkrai handles and is a good coverage alongside psycho boost. Ice Beam is the safest move to spam if misspredicting is a concern, it punishes the Flying- and Dragon-types in the tier, most notably Yveltal on the switch and Mega Salamence and it deals a good amount of damage to common defoggers such as specially defensive Giratina, Latios and Latias and the rare lugia.
Max SpA alongside life orb is required to hit as hard as possible at the cost of speed : 236 Spe EVs allow the bishop to outspeed positive base 130 Pokemon, most notably Mega Gengar and Mega Mewtwo X, lo mewtwo and darkrai. The rest goes in Atk to slightly increase the power of extreme speed and superpower. To give you an idea extreme speed'bishop does the same damage as extreme speed' jolly lo e-killer.

Main role
Firstly, the king supports the team by taking hits from physical threats like luke mega, kanga mega, e-killer, ho-oh ... and in return he can retaliate thanks to his sheer power or even set up if need be.
Indeed, against offensive and balance teams you have to create a set up opportunity thanks to intimidate in order to sweep, or paving the way for the knight to set up or for the queen and the bishop for revenge killing. Rather than revenge killing it as offensive teams does, stall and balance teams use damaging status as their win condition, which force it to sacrifiate his coverage move like earthquake to run facade in order to not become useless. Thus, you have to take a burn in order to be the most effective possible, because toxic puts a timer to his sweep. Thunder wave is the most annoying of those because mega salamence has to rely on luck to abuse of facade.
Dragon Dance and Roost allow The King to set up throughout the match making it a massive threat, which is a very solid wincon with bulk investment. Frustration alongside aerilate ability is the most reliable flying move The King can use without any drawbacks and is very useful when The King has set up repeatedly. In addition most ditto have 255 happiness. Facade takes advantage of a status based metagame making the king more threatening.
The bulk : 200 hp coupled with great base Defense of 130 let it survive +2 extreme speed from e killer and tank cb brave bird from ho-oh after intimidate them and in return with 132 atk he can 2ohko them. 176 Speed EVs is there to outpace 252 EV invested base 90 Speed Pokemon prior to Mega Evolving and outpace positive base 110s like lati@s... after mega evolving.

This Queen fulfills two roles : counter dark pokemons such as (darkrai, yveltal, dark arceus, mega sableye) and a revenge killer.
The Queen takes advantage of her dragon immunity to switch on draco meteor from the like of Latios, Latias, Giratina-O, and surprise them : they stay in thinking xerneas is a geomancy set. She has to switch on Yveltal (be careful on oblivion wing), and Mega Sableye too . Bluffing the geomancy set is the key of success to make those targets in confidence. Moonblast allows The Queen to deal immediatly significant damage to Pokemon even when unboosted, wearing down foes even further in conjunction with Toxic Spikes. The Choice Scarf item, allows The Queen to revenge kill threats such as Darkrai, Mewtwo, Shaymin-S, Deoxys-A, and weakened Arceus formes.
248 Special Attack EVs with a Modest nature are used to maximize the damage output of Moonblast, better allowing Xerneas to revenge kill weakened threats and chip away at Pokemon such as Primal Groudon. 228 Speed EVs are used to outspeed +1 Rayquaza and Kyurem-W and scarf xerneas who commonly run 224. 32 EVs are slotted to Defense to ensure that Genesect gets a Special Attack boost from Download. At least, Geomancy is used for the odd case that you get Knocked Off by Yveltal. Thus, taking advantage of the lack of the Choice Scarf item seems to be natural for your opponent. Don't forget the fact that you don't have mental herb : geomancy is a two turn set up move, so forces a switch to fully abuse of this surprise factor is highly recommended.

ho-oh+yveltal tank:
the two exerts huge pressure on the queen and the king and are usually coupled with a bouncer and a defogger like water arceus. Paving the way for the king to set up and deal with of them is your win condition. So keep the king healthy
aegislash : by far a biggest threat
It annoys a lot the Knight and the Rook and even the king whith the combination of toxic + king's shield which grabs toxic dammages and can decrease atk. Setting hazards to limit switches whit its teammates and aggressevly play is required to get even chip dammage on it.
