Superiority Complex ... But I am Superior ...

Penance

Me again. UU teams are fun because one Pokémon does not single handedly rape the whole tier and weather is unfathomably broken. Anyways I just feel like showing the team.

Blastoise @ Leftovers
Trait: Torrent
EVs: 212 HP / 38 Def / 252 SpD / 8 Spe
Calm Nature (+SpD, -Atk)
- Foresight
- Rapid Spin
- Roar
- Scald

Standard Blastoise beating Spin Blockers and discontinuing whatever form of hazards are up. I went up a specially bulky route because who the Hell runs Electric coverage except for Arcanine but that's physical, as for Grass there will be obvious Hidden Power and STAB. No he is switching in that Shaymin to use Hidden Power Ice, obviously. Enough joking though. Calm is obvious extra special bulk and I run no physical attacks. So this used to be ResTalk but WayofRhetoric [an excellent new rater, good luck to him in the future]. Scald is so I am not Taunt bait and to get residual damage if something gets burned. Rapid Spin and Foresight are obvious Blastoise just to remove the hazards.

Tangrowth @ Leftovers
Trait: Regenerator
EVs: 252 HP / 4 Atk / 252 Def
Impish Nature (+Def, -SpA)
- Knock Off
- Leech Seed
- Power Whip
- Sleep Powder

Tangrowth is the physical part of my BlastGrowth defensive core and does the job nicely since it stops physical sweepers like Rhyperior cold. Tangrowth is pretty solid when it comes down to anything that doesn't carry a special attack but Blastoise can take any special hit that is super effective against Tangrowth. Impish is the reverse of Calm, so... no need to explain it. Knock Off just cripples any Choice and Wall Pokés, so I might be able to outstall them. Leech Seed will sap the opponent dry while sleeping, also they are taking powerful whips to the face. Power Whip is my attacking move and it does nice damage, 180 base power accounting STAB and can smack Quaggy and Rhyperior pretty hard if they think I will Leech Seed or I will switch out. Leech Seed + Sleep Powder = Trolol.

Darmanitan @ Choice Scarf
Trait: Sheer Force
EVs: 4 HP / 252 Atk / 252 Spe
Jolly Nature (+Spe, -SpA)
- Flare Blitz
- Rock Slide
- Superpower
- U-Turn

Darmanitan can mess up some teams that are unprepared for it's wrath. I do not run a bit more of a standard-ish Scarf set since I feel the need to run Taunt on this team just because I do not play my FrosTom with TrickScarf, so I don't have much to check set up sweepers that can plow right through Blastoise with ease. Jolly is to outspeed stuff, like every other Darmanitan. Life Orb and Flare Blitz with Sheer Force is just a rape factory since it absolutely demolishes anything that isn't a bulky Water. Rock Slide gets the Sheer Force boost and is nice coverage with Fire. Taunt is just to stallbreak so I can plow right through the opponent. U-Turn keeps my momentum going and I run a Volt Switcher on this team.

This has been changed to a Scarf Set, and I was too lazy to edit out about five lines of blah blah Life Orb and taunting.

Rotom-F @ Choice Specs
Trait: Levitate
EVs: 4 HP / 252 SpA / 252 Spe
Timid Nature (+Spe, -Atk)
- Blizzard
- Thunderbolt
- Trick
- Volt Switch

Frost Rotom? Without Hail? Yeah, I am a definite ratard. That's me alright, doing something retarded. Choice Scarf Rotom, how original. The set is just to keep my coverage flow going, since I have OCD like that. I chose Modest just for that little bit of punch that we all like. Blizzard is for the BeamBolt coverage that we all love so much. Thunderbolt is my main STAB move if I just want to hurt something. TrickChoice will hopefully be better but not a lot of things can take a Specs Blizzard and then have to deal with a useless pair of shades. Volt Switch just finishes off the VoltTurn or U-Switch combo that we love so much. Once again changed by recommendation of WayofRhetoric.

Machamp @ Leftovers
Trait: No Guard
EVs: 212 HP / 252 Atk / 44 Spe
Adamant Nature (+Atk, -SpA)
- DynamicPunch
- Ice Punch
- Stone Edge
- Substitute

Anti lead Machamp is epic. The opponent will probably get annoyed by an onslaught of DynamicPunchs spreading the confusion around, like a boss. I chose to use Machamp just because I was in need of a bully Fighting type that could serve a couple good purposes. Substitute is great to sit behind so I don't get statused which is annoying with Machamp. DynamicPunch is great STAB and is so haxxy lol. Ice Punch messes up whatever can take a DynamicPunch and Stone Edge *coughflygoncough* which is pretty good and gets nice coverage. Stone Edge kills Froslass with ease and messes up Zapdos to a greater extent than Ice Punch.


images

Uxie @ Leftovers
Trait: Levitate
EVs: 252 HP / 252 SpD / 4 Spe
Calm Nature (+SpD, -Atk)
- Heal Bell
- Stealth Rock
- Yawn
- U-Turn


Cleric Uxie is my replacement for Mew as of recently, I didn't really like Mew on this team. I prefer the greater bulk that Uxie possesses. Uxie is all setup on this set. For the Nature and EVs I went up a specially bulky route, since only Bug is mainly Special (Ghost is more for STAB or on Gallade and Shadow Sneak is physical. And Dark is only Special on Zoroark, but nobody uses Zoroark anymore.) I have chosen Cleric because I have no status absorber or any Poké with Guts on this team, so to make up for it I will add a Cleric. Stealth Rock is necessary on almost every team. Rest is the only recovery Uxie has, I wish Uxie had access to Wish but I guess Uxie is bulky enough to take a couple unprotected hits. Grass Knot is just to mess up fatties like Snorlax. I chose Uxie over Chansey because Uxie is just a lot more versatile so they can't just say "special wall" and just go out to a Fighting type to scare it out.

Edit: I have replaced Grass Knot and rest with Yawn and Thunder Wave, it is such a trolly thing to do. Yawn! Force the switch! Thunder Wave! Oh darn! Lololol. Edit2: Changed TWave with U-Turn as suggested by Moo.

TBP and Threat List later. I am welcome to make any changes I deem necessary changes.

i read the title as "Serperior" and got excited to see it used :P

as far as i can tell the team looks pretty solid, although why does rotom have petaya berry? does it usually live in red when you play it? i'd recommend lefties or life orb over it but you can do what you want. nice team
 
Frost is bulky. I am considering running a bit more of a bulky Lefties or ChestoRest set however.

Actually, I have decided to make it a Choice Scarfer, I will change the EVs and item in a couple minutes.
 
what does the speed evs on Rotom-F allow you to out speed in particular? also Ice beam is a much more reliable choice than a 70% acc blizzard. I also suggest putting choice scarf on darmanitan because otherwise you have no pokemon to revenge kill. I don't have much time to rate so good luck.

Hum .. Rotom-F doesn't get Ice Beam; he only gets Blizzard :/.


Anyway, hey there, Penance. I have few suggestions that I wanted to show you.

So, firstly, the Blastoise set... Sleep talk is interesting but it would never replace the original set of Rapid spin.

Blastoise @ Leftovers | Torrent
Calm | 252 SpD / 212 Hp / 38 Def / 8 Spe
Scald / Rapid spin / Foresight / Roar or Dragon tail

Ok, I custom the Evs for you. 252 SpD for the bulk you wanted Blastoise to have, 212 Hp for the maximum recovery of Lefties, 38 Def for a little bit of physical bulk and 8 Spee to outspeed other Blastoise. I know you lost the status immunity with Rest but I think it's a blessing in disguise.


Then, for Tangrowth, nothing else to say.. Maybe HP Fire; idk ..


Well, here, it becomes a little bit complicated. I highly recommend you to turn Darmanitan to the (always seen in UU) Scarf version. I know that it's not 'original' but it will work out well for you I think. The U-turn combo works well with the scarf one. So, here it is..

Darmanitan @ Choice scarf | Sheer force
Jolly | 252 Atk / 252 Spe / 4 SpD
Superpower / U-Turn / Flare blitz / Rock Slide

Ok, the Evs, not much to say.. The moves too. I choose Jolly to outspeed the majority of other Darmanitan (usually running Adamant). So, yeah ..


Now, Rotom-F. If you choose my recommendation, Rotom-F should be your Specs user. Or, if you don't want that much the U-turn / Volt switch combo, the SubSplit set can be a real pain in the ass for the opponent. Here are the sets:

Rotom-F @ Choice specs | Levitate
Timid | 252 SpAtk / 252 Spe / 4 Def
Blizzard / Volt switch / Thunderbolt / Trick

Evs, pretty standard. Blizzard as powerful STAB, Thunderbolt too. Volt switch helps for the U-Turn combo and Trick to cripple things.

Rotom-F @ Life orb | Levitate
Timid | 252 SpAtk / 252 Spe / 4 Def
Blizzard / Thunderbolt / Substitute / Pain split

I used this set with Hail in UU .. Very annoying. With the pressure of Hail .. OMG. But here, no Hail :3. This set can work .. I try to use it without weather. The problem was the accurancy of Blizzard but, it can abuse the SubSplit combo and finish things with Thunderbolt. Chancey counter Rotom-F, but can be damaged by the SubSplit combo. Obliged to using Wish / Protect or Sofboiled to restore the damage.


Machamp, Machamp, Machamp <3. So powerful. I have just one thing to say about this set, the Evs ;p. Change them to : 212 Hp / 252 Atk / 44 Spe. "Enough Speed EVs are invested to outpace any uninvested neutral natured Pokemon at base 60 Speed and below, such as Empoleon. "

Finally, Mew. The set you use is pretty weird. Pain Split, are you kidding me? (o;o). The original StallBreaker set will do a better job imo. Capable of cripple things like Chancey, Ferroseed, .. that are a pain in the ass for this team.

Mew @ Leftovers | Synchronize
Timid | 252 Hp / 176 Spe / 80 SpD
Will-o-wisp / Roost / Taunt / Psychic, Ice beam or Psyshock

So, 252 Hp for the overall bulk, 176 Spe to "outspeed the majority of the tier, and more specifically base 90 Speed Pokemon" and 80 SpD to add bulk in the special side. W-o-w does the job for the physical one. Sofboiled isn't used because Roost can lure EQ users. Taunt and W-o-w, basics. Now, for the attacking move, it's your choice. You can use Flamethrower or Seismic toss too. Even U-turn. Do whatever you want ;).


Ok, this is the end .. I hope I could help you, even a little bit. It's my 'first real' rate, so, I could forget some things ;).
 
I'd strongly recommend using Rapid Spin on Blastoise. If you prefer a pHazing bulky water, then Milotic does everything blastoise does but better. There's not really much "surprise" factor in a blastoise without RS, it's merely more convenient for your opponent
 
Thanks. I will try that out. I wasn't liking Mew on this team, actually. So if anybody has any suggestions. I have been considering Bisharp in it's place.
 
Bisharp, no. It gives you a fighting and fire weakness :S. And.. You don't need another Physical attacker. But, you need SR. Maybe, change Mew's set I post a little bit?
 
We will see. There aren't a lot of decent Special attackers that can set up rocks, I could try Azelf or the other members of that trio.
 
Azelf is too frail .. Mesprit and Uxie are pretty decent but Mew is the best (from my point of view).

You should try this set;

Mew @ Leftovers | Synchronize
Timid | 252 Hp / 176 Spe / 80 SpD
Will-o-wisp / Roost / Taunt / SR

It's the same set that I post, but with SR. No attacking moves, I know. But it's the best way to set up SR. Try it and if the lack of an attacking move really bother you. Than, PM me, we will find a solution ;). I don't want to pollue this thread anymore :).

PS; Add images to your RMT, to make people wanted to read this.
 
Alright. I feel confident about this team right about now. I might log onto Pokémon Online. I will take some more changes right now though.
 
I am considering running Tangela with Eviolite since it is technically bulkier with Eviolite. Does anybody here have thoughts on that?

Yeah Mews great for almost anything your opponent just won't know what your doing ^^ Use the dual screen set

Mew@lightclay
Ability: Synchronize
Nature' Timid: 252hp, 252spe, 4satk
Moves:
Roost
Light Screen
Psyshock
Reflect
Roost
 
Hey, I've got a few suggestions to help improve your team:

Firstly, change Tangela to Tangrowth. Here's the set, I'll explain in a minute:

Tangrowth (M) @ Leftovers Trait: Chlorophyll
EVs: 252 HP / 4 Atk / 252 Def
Impish Nature (+Def, -SAtk)
- Knock Off
- Sleep Powder
- Leech Seed
- Power Whip

This is basically the same set as your Tangela set, but with a few advantages. Firstly, Tangrowth is actually bulkier due to its much higher HP stat. It also has access to Leftovers, which Tangela does not, and has a higher Attack stat, so it won't have a piss poor Power Whip. There are a few Pokemon that outclass their evolutions with an Eviolite, but unfortunately, Tangela isn't one of them. Tangrowth is definetily the better option here.

I can see Alakazam being a problem here, because nothing on your team can switch into it safely. Uxie can switch into it with some careful prediction, but can't do much against it, as Substitute will block Yawn and Thunder Wave. I suggest putting U-turn over one of the status moves to let it safely switch out to either Darmanitan or Rotom-F. Not only will this help you to combat Alakazam better, it will also allow Uxie to maintain momentum after it has done its job of healing your team.

Good luck with the team, I hope I helped!
 
Yeah I was messing around with Tangrowth vs Tangela. As for Alakazam, Blastoise doesn't mind taking 1 hit from it. I do like Yawn Wave trolling, probably going to replace TWave at this point since Yawn is epic and messes stuff up.
