Pretty decent, although every combo has its counters.how does the offensive combo of Rotom-W and Volcarona work, because the article on combos in Ou doesn't give an explation
Who is the superior sand sweeper, Excadrill or Landorus?
Landorus can function without sand, Excadrill can't function very effectively without sand. But with sand, Excadrill is more of an immediate threat.
So idk, I only have room for one on my team.
Landorus is less used compared to Excadrill. Excadrill has Sand Rush, and a large base Attack stat.
But if not using Tyranitar or HIppowedon to trigger Sand Stream, Landorus is the way to go. Excadrill is dead weight in clear weather, but even with a Choice Scarf, he functions better with a freer choice of attacks in Sand.
How varied should a team be? Like should I balance between defensive and offensive Pokemon, or just stick to one theme?
I didn't mean theme, I meant style of battling....
does unaware work on speed boosts as well?
No, Rocky Helmet only activates on contact moves. Psyschock is not a contact move.
Oh, but it dealt Physical damage, which was why I was wondering. Thanks for clearing that up for me.
It acts like rough skin/iron bars. Only contact moves trigger the rock helmet. So grass knot would trigger it even though its a special moveStupid question, but would Psyshock trigger the Rocky Helmet?
Archeops needs a pokemon teamate who needs a wall partner. Its main problem is that he cannot take to many hits, or his atk is halved. Use a wall such as ferrothorn(I know hes been suggest thousands of times), Cresselia, gliscor, or and thing with defenses. Another part about archeops is that he is walled but physical walls, especially steels. Pair him with a special attacker, such as azelf, infernape, nidoking, or even Lati@s.Ello boys and girls, newbie here. Need some advice on a new team. Just maxed my first EV'd, an Archeops, had a boring time getting cool IVs. So, I need a 3-poke team for Battle Subway. Any ideas on a pair that matches Archeops? (No legends, Arch is lead)
ps. copied archeops evs and moves from here but I don't like the Rotom idea, so all I have is the Archeops.
Thanks in advance
