@ Spiritomb

Ninetales @ Leftovers
252 s.atk, 252 spd, 6 hp
Flashfire ability
- Flamethrower
- Energy Ball
- Will-O-Wisp
- Nasty Plot

Immune to Tomb's wisp, and after using wisp itself Ninetales won't have to worry about Tomb's low power attacks much. Plots up, taking very little from Spiritomb's pursuit, and can finish it off with Flamethrower.
 
@ Ninetails

Houndoom @ Life Orb
252 sp.atk, 252 spd, 6 hp
Flash Fire

-Flamethrower
-HP (water/ground)
-Dark Pulse
-Snatch

comes in on WoW or Flamethrower and hits back with HP. Snatch if you think nasty plot is going to be used

Flareon @ Leftovers

-Toxic
-Roar
-Dig

Absorbs flamethrower, hits you with toxic, and then kills with a massively powerfull dig, or roars you away.

Blastoise @ Leftovers
Bold 252 HP 252 Def 4 Sp atk

Hydro Pump kills it.
 
@ Electivire

Electivire @ Choice Scarf
252 atk, 252 s.atk, 6 spd
- Thunderbolt
- Earthquake
- Ice Punch
- Cross Chop

Cross Chop won't KO on the switch. Earthquake will KO, and with Choice Scarf its faster. Probably wouldn't be a counter if its opponent had a fourth attack.
 
@ Electivire

Swampert @ Lefties
Impish Nature, 240 HP, 252 def, 16 speed
- Earthquake
- Avalanche
- Protect
- Roar

Comes in on any move, can take another one, and OHKOes with EQ. Yeah....
 
@bejlash's Swampert:
Cradily@Leftovers
Bold 252 HP / 252 Def / 4 SpAtk
~Grass Knot
~Toxic
~Recover
~Mirror Coat
Yeah, this is kinda random... It doesn't take too much from Earthquake or Avalanche and takes advantage of Swampert's Grass weakness. It can also Toxic it and Recover off damage.
 
For Swampert@

Bronzong @ Leftovers
Modest@ 252/0/128/128/0/0
Calm Mind
Grass Knot
Psychic
Flash Cannon

Comes in on ANYTHING, CM's up and OHKO's with Grass Knot.
 
@ Cradily, since it was posted first

Beedrill @ Leftovers
252 atk, 252 spd, 6 hp
Jolly nature
- Swords Dance
- X-Scissor
- Brick Break
- Roost

Physical attacker, double resists Grass Knot, and immune to Toxic. Cradily really can't hurt it while it dances and it can Roost off damage.

Beedrill is awesome, and that's almost the set I use in my NU team, as Beedrill has good (for NU) special defense. Endure/Salac though for swarm abuse. Anyways, back on topic.


Sevipier @ Choice Scarf
Naive (as it can't take a hit it doesn't resist anyways anyways) 252 Spd, 126 Atk, 132 Satk
-Flamethrower
-Poison Jab
-Night Slash
-Giga Drain


-Comes in while you are dancing, outruns thanks to the scarf, and blows beedrill up with a flamethrower.

Earthquake
Hypnosis
HP Ice
Gyro Ball

Comes in on anything and EQs.
 
@ Bronzong

Shuckle @ Leftovers
252 hp, 100 def, 156 s.def
0 spd iv
Relaxed nature
- Knock Off
- Wrap
- Bide
- Rest

Bronzong really just can't hurt it, and Shuckle's slower than Bronzong resulting in a weak Gyro Ball. Knocks off Leftovers and slowly KO's with Wrap and Bide, resting when needed.
 
To Shuckle:

Metagross @ Leftovers
Adamant@ 164/252/88/0/0/0
Meteor Mash
Earthquake
Substitute
Thunderpunch

Hides behind his sub to prevent Knock Off from removing lefties, and hits back with 405 Atk STAB SE Meteor Mash.
 
Heatran @ Shuca Berry
252 SAtk / 252 Spd
Fire Blast
Earth Power
Dragon Pulse
Explosion

Can switch in to M-Mash and hit you hard.

-Rest
-Sleep talk
-Thunderpunch
-Ice punch
Can switch in on surf taking minimal damage, absorbs sleep and hits for SE with thunderpunch, while, although not a 2hko, will stall recover out of pp.
 
@ Dusknoir

Mewtwo @ Choice Specs
252 s.atk, 252 spd, 6 hp
Modest nature
- Psychic
- Shadow Ball
- Ice Beam
- Aura Sphere

Takes around 22% max from Dusknoir's attacks. Uber = cheap I know but its something different at least.

Well it looks like we've gone into ubers...

Arceus @ Silk Scarf
252 atk, 252 sp def, 4 spd
Adament Nature
-Swords Dance
-Extremespeed
-EQ
-Shadow Claw

Can take anything but aura sphere easily, and that is a 2hKo. Extremespeed is a OHKO after swords dancing.
 
If Extreme Speed is a OHKO after Swords Dance, and Aura Sphere is a 2HKO, Arceus isn't really a counter in this case. Takes an Aura Sphere on the switch and another while trying to Swords Dance.
 
@Arceus

Skarmory@Shed Shell
Impish: 252 HP/200 ATK/56 DEF
Brave Bird
Roost

Rock Slide

Adament Nature
-Swords Dance
-Extremespeed
-judgment
-Shadow claw

since the previous arceus wasnt a counter i wanted to counter mewtwo but skarm had to ruin the fun and took a SE judgment to his face
 
@Arceus:

Heatran@Choice Scarf
Modest: 4 HP/252 SP. ATK/252 SPEED
HP Electric
Fire Blast
Dragon Pulse
Earth Power

Comes in on anything. Judgement gives me a boost, but it doesn't matter.
 
@ Heatran

- Calm Mind
- HP Ground
