Uhm, do you already have the Chansey fully trained and everything? If not I want to try to run this set

Chansey (Chansey) @ Eviolite
Ability: Natural Cure
EVs: 4 HP / 252 Def/ 252 SpD
Bold Nature

-Soft Boiled
-Stealth Rocks
-Toxic
-Seismic Toss

Or do you think Infernape is still the best choice for SR?

Because I think Chnancey should be just full support and if she runs SR with her HP and putting all of her EV's into Defense and SpD I think she would be able to get down SR and be able to switch out and still have Infernape as a huge threat

Yes...except seismic toss is a 3rd gen tutor move XD. I can't get it. Sorry... Maybe stealth rock, Softboiled, toxic, and...uhh...I don't know, thunder wave?

Yeah thunder wave would actually be nice

So since I am going to use chansey You already have the chimchar ready that isn't built for SR correct?

Anyway, so that means, that neither infernape or garchomp need to have stealth rock, so what item do you suggest for infernape? And don't Make it focus sash, because if you use that you'd need to have a hazard remover, which your team doesn't have.

Hmm... Do you think my team is vulnerable to hazards? I think it may be able to tough it out, but having infernape with its best move set could heighten my team compared to it running hazard removing sets

Um...no. Two of your pokemon are resistant to stealth rock, and the rest are neutral. And I didn't mean infernape remove hazards; he can't even do that.

Oh ok thought you meant if I want focus sash on infernape it would have to be a hazard remover. Just read it wrong.

Hmm, which Pokemon would best fit the hazard remover role than? I would say chansey but not sure if she can remove hazards and she already has to set it up

No, what I'm saying is your team doesn't care about hazards. Gallade, garchomp, and magnezone are all resistant to stealth rock, and sylveon, infernape, and chansey are neutral. I you still really want a hazard remover, then you'll have to find a new team member, because none of these pokemon can learn rapid spin.

(face palm)Again my bad read your comment wrong again. So I think this could be an actually good team just need to learn to play it right. Hopefully battling you will help me out with it.

Alright, since you are able to switch up Chansey's set I am going to continue the rmt post again

Also hopefully since you helped me through this people can offer there advice it can help both you and me out

Or I can use Heal Bell instead of thunder wave or do you think having the opponents pokemon paralyzed be too crucial?

Yeah, sure! You'll probably win, with that team :D. Anyway, I have your last three pokemon ready to trade you. Now I'm going to confirm the sets.

How do you think that will perform?

Well, the item's good, but...I will have to breed all over again for a naive one. Let me tell you, it takes a lot out of me XD. But...if you feel like you want me to, then I'll do it. But, another couple of days most likely.

Yeah, that was the problem I had with it. I am already asking you for way too much I don't want to keep asking for more. I think I can run with that Infernape

No, no. I like to do anything I can for people. Really it's fine. All I'm saying is that it'll take me another day or so for it. I hope the team goes well :D!
