Hey everyone this is a RMT about a offensive team.
This team is what pulled me back into competitive Pokémon.
but I have been testing it on PO and it peaked #6 and I tested it on wifi battle and it got 89-1. It got pushed around by scarftran then I figured out a strategic plan to eliminate that problem and keep my winning streak going.
Happily Scarftran usage as reduced to 12% meaning this team has a better chance to sweep. This team destroys stall and helps me get around powerful attacker like DDmence and MSLumDnite. So here is the Team
Introducing Team Abyss Heavenly Sky
(Team Building Process)
First I needed Set up and Tank this thing tanks all attack and it is usually used to stop tall teams. Thanks to team preview I can see if someone has a Heatran and make sure I always have mine in play. I chose Heatran because has a huge weakness to mix mence so I chose Heatran to tank a Hydro pump that's if it is in full health. Heatran get's 2HKO by a Earhquake if he is in full health.
Now I needed a Late game Sweeper I only send this in late if I feel tempted to bring it in It will always result in me losing a valuable player in the team.
Lucario tanks Dragon and Ice types which take out two of my main Sweepers and revengers.
I had to choose between Latias and DDnite and Latias surpassed DD nites strength and came to my team as a Stall breaker. I use this when Heatran is switched out and I want to build up momentum. Latias sucks against Physical team Though but at full health it can tank a pursuit at switch out so it needed a spot in my team.
Ahhh CMachi lol thing thing get's so much priority and people don't know how dangerous this thing is after 2 CM because it will ko halve your team even though you resist sometimes I get lucky with so crits.
Now I needed to Walls That has great synergy with Jirachi Lucario and Latias which help me take on many stalls. Some people Try to K:o my team with just one pokmon until I bring in My walls then it is time to stall.
When My two walls are gone without even doing anything then I do have some problems because then I need to go Hyperoffense and just attack until my problems are gone then Luacrio can end the Game.
So Here The Team!
This team is so great and Offense is the only option. If you study this team and use it to it's full potential you will always win, but I have to say this team does have some weaknesses and has it's losses aswell.
Heatran (M) @ Air Balloon
Trait:Flash Fire
4 HP / 252 SpA / 252 Spe
Modest(+Spe -Atk)
- Over Heat
- Will-o-Wisp
- Stealth Rock
- HP Ice
Heatran's role on this team isn't an easy task. He sponges so many hits that it is surprising that he is still around most games. I rely on him as my single Dragon resist and have found little need to run another. The fact that he has found his own niche as a bulky Fire Pokemon means that there really wasn't any other choice besides him. Not only does he take hits, he also decimates switch-ins to him. His resistances plus immunities means that he forces a lot of switches, meaning that he can fire of attacks without any repercussions. His rather shallow movepool is a bit of a let down, but he makes do with what he has been given.
Heatran's all important role on this team is to set up Stealth Rock's. While they aren't as game changing as they were in 4th generation, they still are game changing. With the focus of my team being forcing switches, Stealth Rock's soon find themselves racking up damage. Overheat is the STAB of choice. This is simply due to the fact that Heatran functions as a 'hit and run' type of Pokemon. People will switch in a counter to Heatran when they see him, so it only makes sense to hit hard and run. Although there are times I wish that I had Fire blast over Overheat, most times Overheat is more beneficial. . Hidden Power Ice gives me the ability to dispatch of Outrage locked Dragon's in a second. I chose Hidden Power Ice overs Dragon Pulse because Ice can also hit Grass and Flying types hard, while Dragon Pulse only hits Dragon's. While its base power is lacking compared to Dragon Pulse, the fact that there are Pokemon that are 4x weak means that it is a feasible option over Dragon Pulse.
Lucario (M) @ Life Orb
Trait:Inner Focus
252 Atk / 4 Def / 252 Spe
Adamant(+Atk -SpA)
- Swords Dance
- Close Combat
- Crunch
- Extremespeed
Once Lucario is revealed it is generally the beginning of the end. Lucario is to powerful as soon as the Threats are away it is game Over
Setting up a game plan for Lucario is always useful. For instance, sometimes it is worth, given adequate knowledge of the opponent's team, letting Latias take a Draco Meteor, in order to give Lucario a free turn. Pokémon like Latias and Rotom are often Pursuited or taken out with Crunch, and with its 4x resistance to Dark-type moves, Lucario becomes an immediate threat to the opponent.
Latias (F) @ Life Orb
Trait:Levitate
4 HP / 252 SpA / 252 Spe
Timid (+Spe -Atk)
- Draco Meteor
- Surf
- Thunderbolt
- Recover
It has wonderful synergy with Gliscor and Lucario because they cover each other's weaknesses. She covers Electric attacks very well with easy recovery,Calm Mind doesn't really have a place on Latias in this team because of its fast paced nature. Thunderbolt offers more covered a slim chance of paralyzing the opponent. The paralysis only has merit when Latias is stalling out something like Zapdos. With an increase in SpD Skarmory's, Thunderbolt is like an ace in the hole. They'll switch in to Surf and take only a modest amount of damage, think it's safe to Roost, and be taken out. It also takes the pressure off Draco Meteor against things that don't need that much firepower.
Jirachi @ Leftovers
Trait:Serene Grace
252 HP / 252 Def / 4 Spe
Bold (+Def -Atk)
- Calm Mind
- Wish
- Psychic
- Thunderbolt
This Jirachi is, well, the star of the team! At first, I used to play very conservatively with Jirachi, but I realised introducing it in the mid-game can actually be useful. Most people expect physical Jirachi as well! Wish support is not only incredible for Jirachi itself but for its fellow teammates. Psychic and Thunderbolt is an old standard with great neutral coverage. Jirachi is designed to tank hits while statting up and Wishing as required. It can also take status decently, although Gliscor is on the team to ease this pressure.
Gliscor (M) @ Toxic Orb
Trait:Poison Heal
252 HP / 36 Def / 220 Spe
Jolly (+Spe -SpA)
- Taunt
- Sword Dance
- Ice Fang
- Earthquake
Gliscor absorbs Thunder Wave, a move this team previously had trouble with (so Jirachi was usually delegated to take the paralysis). This set beats stall pretty handily, checks most Lucario, and can stall problem Pokémon out itself efficiently.
Rotom-w @ Choice Scarf
Trait:Levitate
252 HP / 4 SpA / 252 Spe
Timid (+Spe -Atk)
- Thunderbolt
- Shadow Ball
- Hydro Pump
- Trick
Rotom-W is my favourite sweeper on this team and It checks things very well and it's bulk makes it very hard to go down. Rotom-w also lures out Choiced Dark attacks from the likes of Scizor and Tyranitar, so if caught in a compromised situation, Lucario can take advantage of the circumstances!
rick lets it cripple Blissey or anything else causing problems for the team. Rotom-c was also previously Modest and 252 SpA, but it was too frail, so bulkier EVs help it switch on its resistances while still maintaining decent power. Also, the very useful Ghost typing can also take the Explosions that Latias seems to bait.
Conclusion:
Overall this has been an extremely fun team to use and it is still winning matches. Though I am worried that something will come one day and destroy this team completely. I have never tried Offense before because I am more of a Bulky Offense player because that makes it quick and deadly but Offense increases the speed of the match and it makes the battle very quickly need. Scarfers annoy this team and it really Rages me to the point when I have to just drop my offense and Stall until I lock my opponets in a tight spot.
