Blue Team Assemble!!!! (RMT)

MetagrossMaster

**Note this is not a team for Shoddy it is for Wi-Fi**

This is my first team that I have posted. I am totaly new to the online battles. So feel free to rip this team apart. I need to know what I am doing so that I can build better teams in the furture.

I have spent all day looking over the OU and BL lists today and I think that I have come up with a good team (I may be totaly bass ackwards but I will see we) this is my team:
swampert.jpg


Swampert @ Expert Belt (I don't know about this but I think it will pack a little more punch)
Nature: Relaxed
Ability: Torrent
EV's: 240 Hp / 216 Def / 52 SpA

- Earthquake
- Ice Beam
- Hydro Pump
- Stealth Rock

This is my new lead I have tried him out on shoddy a couple of times and he works really well as a lead. He doesn't have a lot of type coverage but he can dish out a lot of damage

Metagross.jpg

Metagross @ Shuca Berry
Nature: Adament
Ability: Clear Body
EV's: 104 Hp / 252 Atk / 152 Spe

- Meteor Mash
- Earthquake
- Agility
- Thunder Punch / Explosion

Ok I decided to go back to Agigross with the addition of Heracross this way I have a way to counter Gara with Thunder Punch but I also want explosion so that I can blow up right in that fat ball Blissy but it won't pack the punch it would if I were using CB but I dunno

Lucario.jpg

Lucario @ Choice Specs
Nature: Modest
Ability: Steadfast
EV's: 4 Def / 252 SpA / 252 Spe

- Aura Sphere
- Vacuum Wave
- Dark Pulse
- Dragon Pulse

with the type coverage that he provides there are not a lot of things that can get past him some of this little guys problems is namely Heatran

Cresselia.png

Cresselia @ Leftovers
Nature: Bold
Ability: Levitate
EV's: 252 Hp / 108 Def / 148 SpD

- Rest
- Sleep Talk
- Ice Beam
- Psychic

Lookin at all the sets for Cress this is the best one for a mix wall also this makes a good counter for mixape seeing how Psychic tares him apart.



Heracross.gif

Heracross @ Choice Band
Nature: Adament
Ability: Guts
EV's: 104 Hp / 252 Atk / 152 Spe

- Close Combat
- Megahorn
- Stone Edge
- Pursuit


I thought that I would try this out this will help me with some of my weaknesses and he is a good poke too boot But I am not sure if I wana give him CS or CB so I need some input on that.

azelf.jpg

Azelf @ Life Orb
Nature: Timid
Ability: Levitate
EV's: 36 HP / 252 SpA / 220 Spe

- Nasty Plot
- Psychic
- Flamethrower
- Grass Knot

Ok this is my late to mid game sweeper he has a lot of type coverage and he is a very deadly sweeper if the team is not prepared for him.

Ok so this is my team and after looking at my team I think that I should change gross to either the Rest talk set but I don't need 2 rest talkers and I was looking at CB gross what do you guys think.

Like I said feel free to rip this apart so that I can learn what makes a good team.
 
On colored teams, I plan to make them as themed as possible. I'm going to start with lucario...

this is your standard SD Lucario with one SD he can pretty much OHKO any big walls (other then Cress) with 1 CC so I like the way he looks I am jus not sure what I should use for my last move out of those 3

I feel the best thing is to just change his EVs to something like 212 spe, 252 atk, and 22 spatk, slap a life orb on there, and make his last slot HP ice. That way, you can do all sorts of crazy things with gliscor and hippowdon. Like OHKO them.

Now, I think that donphan and cresselia should be replaced with starmie and an infernape counter of your choice. Just go with the spinstar set, and your other blue thing could be something like...

-Wobbuffet (Revenge killer could help you a little bit)
-Gyarados (LO azelf works better late game imo)
-Bibarel (Awesome set)

or..

-Garchomp (xD)

as I do like that I am going off of what smogon gives once I get a little more experianced then a may play around with it but for now I like that set and I would take so looong to get HP [Ice]

as for getting rid of cress and don....I wana keep them just for the fact that I don't like stamie (don't know why just never have) and I hate wabafag with a firey passion that burns with the white hot intensaty of 1,000 suns but if you could explain some reasons to use starmie over donphan then I may consider it but he is one of my favs for this team.

also I was having trouble finding a lead that is why I put Azelf in that spot he takes care of Gara, Gengar, and Weavile (if I'm lucky)

Starmie has:

Reliable recovery
Type Coverage
Rapid Spin
Speed (outspeeds infernape and OHKOs with surf/psychic)
Counters other big threats (EQ/Waterfall gyarados can have fun with this team)
Looks cooler
warrent of fitness checks free for the first 5 years
2 years interest free
12 year warrenty

At only $29,995rp*

Starmie is better.
 
Well I was going to have a bench that I could switch in and out depending on my mood so starmie will go in my bench and pending on the outcomes of the battles that will also influence my opinion but I still have a long way to go my last game got jacked by my roommate for drug money(not joking) and I had to get I new one and I just got it a few days ago
 
I just realised, shiny cress is blue.

MoP, doesn't swampert stop heatran without HP grass? He's mostly sleeptalk anyway.

You'd think you add something that's a Water type as most are blue to stop the ridiculous Heatran massacre.

P.S. Donphan is blue?
Click to expand...
did you not see that the last spot on my team was Swampert -.- anyways I really wasn't trying to make this team blue lol it just kinda came out that way.

other than the things that have already been said what are some things that I need to fix? or do I have a pretty solid team as is?
 
Well I guess your team is 100% fine against all threats if you think having one non-healing resistent to face something that OHKO's 4 things off the bat with it's STAB move is alright. Nevermind the fact that it could also be running its 30% burning move as well. Perfect team.
 
why does this teaneed a rapid spinner? 4 immunes to toxic spikes, 2 levitate, no stealth rock weak.

chomp and tentacreul over donphan and metagross

I never said it was perfect you just made it sound like I had nothing that would take care of it

I don't really wana get rid of gross so if I switched him to CB set or rest talk set do you think that I could keep him on the team? I could get rid of donphan but Tentacrule just doesn't appel to me but I dunno
 
scarfchomp for donphan solves some heatran problems and gives you some speed
if you want gross, at least switch lucario to the special set (or mixed), this might get you past cress and help heatran problems
pursuit on gross for cress, celebi, starmie, slobrow (maybe choice band)

I know that scarfchomp is awsome but would specsmence work too? also what move should I remove on gross to add pursuit agility maybe?
 
you don't have much coverage stacking types like that
milotic and pert overlap too much
trouble taking down bulky waters
walls are decent, but can't handle specsmence
some kind of phazer is needed
gyrados hurts you

Yeah I have been playin around on shoddy and bliss and gara are my 2 biggest problems bliss walls the hell out of me and gara well after about 1 DD goes through my team like butter.

I want to switch it up but every thing I do I just come back to this. I am thinking of making my Lucario back to SD and going back to agigross this way I have a way to deal with both bliss and gara but then we get back to the pokes that are weak to dark moves and at that point I would only have crunch on SD Lucario and then I am back to my heatran problems....
maybe I could switch Milotic out with CSheracross but I don't know....
 
that is a good idea
i didn't want to wreck your blue theme
cross helps gyra, tran, bliss, and it allows tpunch on metagross
 
what should I get rid of for a phazer (I don't really care about the blue thing It kinda happened by accedent lol) I know there is scarm but that would put 3 steel types on my team making it an esay sweep for Heatran...I just can't think of anyothers right now other than cune but I dunno
 
I have made a few changes but I am still looking for a PHazer if anyone has some ideas on a good one let me know.....I would like to stay away from Skarm as much as possible I know that he is really good and he is one of the best PHazers but I don't like to use him because he is like the village doornob everyone has had a turn.
