Hello Guys,
I'm here with my 2nd team. I wanted to build a team around Mega-Sableye and a Trick Room-team was the result. So, here it is:
As you can see, my team is: Mega-Sableye, Heatran, Tapu Bulu, Malamar, Hoopa-U and Porygon2
The Teambuilding Process:
That's my team and now the Sets:
Item: Sablenite
Ability: Prankster -> Magic Bounce
EV's: 248HP, 252Def, 8SpDef
Nature: Relaxed (+Def -Spe)
-Will-O-Wisp
-Recover
-Knock Off
-Fake Out
It's the Pokemon, I wanna build around, because I like the normal Zobiris and the so I wanted to try out the Mega. It can cripple and check physical attackers very well, knocks items off and can revenge kill Pokemon with 1HP (Sash) with Fake Out. The other big thing it does is my Hazard controll. It's my only removal but I can switch very well into somethink like Ferrothorn.
Item: Iapapa Berry
Ability: Flash Fire
EV's: 248HP, 8SpAtt, 252SpDef
Nature: Sassy (+SpDef -Spe)
-Stealth Rocks
-Taunt
-Earth Power
-Lava Plume
My Switch-In in Fairy and Bug-Moves and a very good special wall. If the opponents manages it to get it low, my Berry will activate and I recover 50%, for Heatran very nice. It's my Switch-In in dangerous Pokemon for my Sableye and both are very nice together and make my Core. I want Stealth Rocks and Taunt is another option to prevent hazard on my side. It's also cool against Boosters and disables Recovery. Earth Power maintainly for other Heatran and Lava Plume is a strong STAB which can burn.
Item: Leftovers
Ability: Grassy Surge
EV's: 248HP, 252Att, 8SpDef
Nature: Brave (+Att -Spe)
-Bulk Up
-Horn Leech
-Superpower
-Leech Seed
I wanna play it defensive to check Ground types but I still do a lot of damage and I can boost very well with Bulk Up, so I negate the Superpower drops. Leftovers, Grassy Terrain, Leech Seed and Horn Leech are my pretty reliable recovery. Horn Leech and Superpower are strong Moves. I can perfectly Switch-In in EQs and get by the Switch-Out of my opponent a free Bulk Up or Leech Seed. There are a lot of Pokemon I can boost against, thats what I like.
Item: Aguav Berry
Ability: Contrary
EV's: 252Att, 4Def, 252SpDef
Nature: Brave (+Att -Spe)
-Trick Room
-Knock Off
-Superpower
-Psycho Cut
Yeah, another 50% Berry, but my Malamar needs it. It's my 1st Trick Room-Setter and can boost with Superpower while still doing a lot of damage! SpDef investet, because I boost my physical defensive. Full Attack for the damage, I need damage now. Knock Off is always nice to have to get rid of annoying Items from my opponents and it's a strong STAB. Psycho Cut as another stong STAB hopefully critting. Superpower boosts me and does insame damage. Malamar can Sweep and that's what my team needed.
Item: Darkinium Z
Ability: Magician
EV's: 252Def, 252SpAtt, 4SpDef
Nature: Quiet (+SpAtt -Spe)
-Nasty Plot
-Dark Pulse
-Psyshock
-Thunderbolt
My Sweeper in the Trick Room. Does insane damage on the special side and is my big Win-Con. Definitely what my team needed. Nasty Plot to boost, with my Bulk I get very often a boost. Then I'm deadly dangerous. Z-Dark Pulse does insane damage, Psyshock against special defensive Pokemon an another strong STAB. Thunderbolt only for coverage against something like Magearna or Hydreigon. I play it full Def to tank a little bit more there, because I'm special defensive very strong and the physical defensive is my Weakness, so I need this investment.
Item: Eviolite
Ability: Trace
EV's: 248HP, 8Def, 252SpDef
Nature: Sassy (+SpDef -Spe)
-Trick Room
-Recover
-Toxic
-Tri Attack
I needed a 2nd very reliable Trick Room-Setter. I have good physical defenive (Will-O-Wisp, Mega-Sableye, Bulk Up, Superpower) and my mainly special defensiv Pokemon has to handle with a lot of Stuff, so I want to take the pressure off it. Why not play a special defensive Porygon2. Gets the Trick Room safe and checks throgh Eviolite and Investment almost everything on the special side and even soemthing on the physical side. This Pokemon need recover and Toxic is always nice to have. At last Tri Attack for the Hax and a nice STAB, every chip helps my Late-Game-Sweepers.
So guys, I hope you like my Team and if you think you can improve it, just comment. And I'm sorry for my bad english, I hope you can understand it anyway.
Have a nice day :)
I'm here with my 2nd team. I wanted to build a team around Mega-Sableye and a Trick Room-team was the result. So, here it is:
As you can see, my team is: Mega-Sableye, Heatran, Tapu Bulu, Malamar, Hoopa-U and Porygon2
The Teambuilding Process:
At 1st, I had my Mega-Sableye. I play it physical defensvive, because with Will-O-Wisp I have then the perfect answer for physical attackers.
But it has it problems with Fire-Types (can't burn them) and Fairy Moves (Weakness). So, what's the perfect partner in the OU-Tier for it? Correctly, it's Heatran. And I play it defensive, because I want it to handle a lot of Pokemon, I play it special defensive, because I already have something against physical attackers and now I have a cool Core.
Heatran is a nice Swith-In in a lot of Moves, so I want it to live long. But EQ and other Ground-Moves are a big problem with it. So I need something to deal with. Tapu-Bulu is perfect for this role. I play it Bulky Offensive, becasue on this point I saw, I have no Speed, why not playing Bulky Offensive.
At this place, I had Mimikyu at 1st, but this doesn't have much Speed as well and after some playing with the entire team I recognized I want some Speed. So I came on the idea of playing Trick Room. I wanted 2 Setters and Mimikyu can learn it, but it's not a good Setter. So I took Malamar. I know, it's only NU, but why don't try it out. Invested it SpDef and Attack with Superpower-Boost it can Sweep in the Trick Room and that's what my team needs.
I still need special offensive Power and I saw a Pokemon I never played but I always wanted to try. Its also a nice Z-Move-User and the opponent could even think, it's physical offenive. I'm talking of Hoopa-U. I know, I have 2 4xBug-Weaknesses, but I have Heatran and apart from U-Turn, Bug isn't a often used type. Heatran has to check the 3 Fairy-Weaknesses as well, but I trust him, to handle this. At 1st I had Trick Room on him as well, but he isn't a good Setter, so I gave it my last Mon.
My last Pokemon was Rotom-Was at 1st, but I wanted a good Trick Room-Setter, why not using Porygon2. It gives me a lot of defensive Power, so I can offer up a Mon with a Fairy or Bug-Weaknesses (My little problems), can go in Porygon2, trough the Eviolite I should tank a Move, go on Trick Room, can damage the opponent before I die and go in Hoopa-U to revenge kill. Hoopa-U is in most cases my Win-Con as well. And I like Trace, its always cool. I can stall a little bit with Toxic and Recover as well, but it's not that bad.
