A Well Balanced Team! (?) o.o!
ok, so im trying to make a well balanced team. im not finished yet cheking the specific downs of the team, but im on that, thats y i post the team =)!
Cyrax! (Heracross) @ Choice Scarf
Jolly - Guts
Ev's: 104 HP / 252 Atk / 152 Spe
~ Megahorn
~ Close Combat
~ Stone Edge
~ Pursuit
well, this little guy as a lead is very good. normally for being a lead people assume it is Scarfer, and yeah, they are not wrong. but what most of the people, if not all, think that it is Adamant, or that doesnt have an speed + nature. this gives Heracross a lil bit of surprise capability =)!
With + speed nature, it can be also used more reliably as Revenge killer, even with some pokemons that have used attacks which boosted speed.
In my first battle with this guy, i killed the first pokemon i had in front of me, then followed by a dugtrio, if my Hera wasn't Jolly, he would've died o_o!
so lets keep it Jolly =D!
-Pursuit, because many times Hera for his respectable SpD, he can come onto Starmie, or other not so strong pokes, and they will either run, or get killed, or even better, get killed before they run :D!
That applies with many other psychics too.
-The Other attaks are explained by themselves...
-A guts boost is Way Welcomed thanks to the lack of + atk Nature.
Gliscor! @ Leftovers
Impish - Hyper cutter
252 HP / 4 Atk / 252 Def
~ Earthquake
~ Aerial Ace
~ Ice Fang
~ Roost
-Gliscor, Needed in here for covering some common threats and pairs up with the other teammates =).
-Hypper cutter. has been better for me than Sand veil cuz of many things, say Salamence, Gyarados, and sometimes they just come in and out just for the intimidate... so lets keep it hyper cutter xD.
-Ice Fang instead of a Support Move because after some battles i got to see that it was more usefull Hyper cutter + ice fang, than knock off. sometimes the "counter" to gliscor is only one, and if you dont kill it, you will be facing the same poke over and over, so u wont have anything to knock off. so its better to have a bigger movepool. and Do Something to The Gaychomp D:!
-Roost & Eq are there because they need to xD, they are one with Gliscor x).
-Aerial ace, because the main reason of gliscor in the team is countering fighting types, so aerial ace will do ok =).
Swampert! @ Sitrus Berry / Chesto Berry / Leftovers(?)
Relaxed - Torrent
240 HP / 216 Def / 52 SpA
~ Earthquake
~ Surf
~ Ice Beam
~ Roar/Rest
-Pretty much, other one of the bases of the team. I'm Trying to make a moveset or think of something for him different, but im liking him like this, and the sitrus berry gives him that touch of me xD, and has worked =)!
-Moveset of a Mixpert, pretty reliable, and works good with the team.
the only thing i have been thinking about is recovery...
-**Rest or Roar**
Rest helps Swampert to Regain its health fully, and with chesto berry keep on attacking right on. if i want to use it one more time, i can either try to wait 2 turns, or try to heal it with aromatherapy.
Roar Helps with Stat uppers basically, the important one here that makes me not give this job to another guy is Snorlax, who can be Meannie for the team with some curses on D:!
Without Rest i dont have anything to recover, other than think about a wish passer that can fit in the team, call it Togekiss...or something weird..
i still have Sitrus berry, which helps At all times. The bad thing is that it doesnt restore all health..
Vishnu! (Blissey) @ Leftovers
Modest - Natural Cure
252 SpA / 252 Def / 4 Hp
~ Thunderbolt
~ Ice Beam
~ Aromatherapy
~ Softboiled
This is basically a necesity in all my teams... idk, she is my favorite pokemon, not only for her defenses for everything... but in this team i have seen her a lil bit not so useful, dispite aromatherapy support, and being the awesome wall she is. but i need something more... x)
if u kno a different moveset that can make her better for the team ill be thankfull =).
I made this set in adv with help of some friends x), i was tired of seeing Seismic Toss blisseys everywere, so i decided on making her: an awesome special attacker! (?)
it works, but i think that if i try i can get something better o_o!
-Not much to explain, Modest + Boltbeam + Aroma + Softboiled =).
Starmie @ Leftovers
Timid - Natural Cure
160 HP / 132 SpA / 216 Spe
~ Ice Beam / Thunderbolt
~ Rapid Spin
~ Recover
~ Surf
"Normal Starmie Spinner"
-Surfs up xD, scares, and then we start the game of "lets see who has better type coverage and defenses" thats were the main point of the team starts... but i want to Perfection that "strategy"...
-I was analizing, what do i fear most, Gyarados or Garchomp... and i think garchomp D:... my starmie now has Thunderbolt, but i have been going over it.. and it would save my team with a magic "ice beam" hehe... (the reason i also gave the ice fang to Gliscor)
-Rapid spin havent been useful yet, but i think someday it will, so ill keep it for now x).
-Main MixInferchangue Counter, paired up with a little bit of gliscor D:.
A lil bit new using Starmies, so Bring on some good things, everything is useful =).
Metagross @ Expert Belt
Quiet- Clear Body
252 HP / 6 Atk / 252 SpA
~ Meteor Mash
~ Hidden Power Fire
~ Grass Knot / Psychic
~ Explosion / Psychic
Yay, another thing like what i like to use x), weird and different xD!
-I was using it With 252 Hp anyways, so it didnt hurt to give him som SpA
-Hidden Power Fire is Great, and helps to get rid of what annoys other things of my team too.
-Grass Knot Gets its Job done pretty good. but maybe change it here with Psychic
-Explosion has saved me many times, and is always a viable option in Metagross, but Zen Headbutt has been useful in the other version ive used... so im thinking in plugging Psychic in there, but im still thinking Either Explosion or Grass knot o.o!!
-In General gets its job done by resisting and "countering", and when appropiate EXPLODE! xD!
Thats it for now, i have in mind Bronzong and Celebi for the team, to help with some weaknesses, but idk yet were to put them!
plz help me with that 2 =)!
ok, so im trying to make a well balanced team. im not finished yet cheking the specific downs of the team, but im on that, thats y i post the team =)!
