Hey everybody! This is my 4th RMT in which I wanted to try out a banded ferrothorn with mixedscarfape :P
Infernape @ Choice Scarf
Trait: Iron Fist
EVs: 252 Spd / 148 Atk / 108 SAtk
Naive Nature
- Close Combat
- Flare Blitz
- U-turn
- Hidden Power [Ice]
Infernape is usually my lead and allows me to hit hard and scout at the same time. It's not neccessarily a sucide lead because I do like saving mixape as a revenge killer. HP Ice for all the dragons/landorous.. etc. CC + Flare Blitz are strong STABs along with U-turn in turn of a bad match up.
Rotom-Wash @ Choice Scarf
Trait: Levitate
EVs: 252 Spd / 252 HP / 4 SAtk
Timid Nature
IVs: 30 Atk / 30 Def
- Volt Switch
- Hydro Pump
- Pain Split
- Trick
I think this Rotom set needs some changes but it's been doing just fine lately for me. Rotom-W's typing allows it to take hits and once in a while cripple something with Trick. Pain Split is my method of recovery with Volt Switch and Hydro Pump for dual stabs.
Ferrothorn @ Choice Band
Trait: Iron Barbs
EVs: 248 HP / 8 SDef / 252 Atk
Brave Nature
IVs: 0 Spd
- Gyro Ball
- Power Whip
- Bulldoze
- Explosion
The other day I ran into someone running Banded Ferrothorn and I really liked it. Power Whip and Gyro Ball can really surprise Pokes and bulldoze and explosion are just fillers lol. Ferrothorn's typing really allows it to take hits and then hit hard. Too often, Ferrothorn is mistook for it's defensive ability rather than its reasonable 94 physical attack.
Latias (F) @ Leftovers
Trait: Levitate
EVs: 252 HP / 252 Spd
Timid Nature
- Calm Mind
- Substitute
- Dragon Pulse
- Roost
Latias fits in perfectly with my sort of hyper offensive team. Latias is there to take hit and then Sub Calm Mind Roost and do its thing. Inferape is there to get rid of those steels for latias.
Umbreon @ Leftovers
Trait: Synchronize
EVs: 252 SDef / 252 HP / 4 Def
Careful Nature
- Wish
- Foul Play
- Baton Pass
- Protect
Umbreon can take special hits for days. It's also my Wish passer considering how much I can use it since I need a way for recovery for ape and ferrothorn. I like running Baton Pass + Wish because this makes sure that Umbreon takes the hit from the opponent and then I can bring in the Poke to who I wanna pass the wish to.
Alakazam @ Life Orb
Trait: Magic Guard
EVs: 252 Spd / 252 SAtk / 4 HP
Timid Nature
- Shadow Ball
- Psyshock
- Focus Blast
- Hidden Power [Ice]
Alakzam is probably one of the most powerful special attackers. This thing is here for a late game sweep. Psyshock for STAB, Focus Blast (even tho its accuracy always hurts me) and Shadow Ball/HP Ice for coverage.
