Before I begin, quick shoutout to Aerow He's a cool guy and is the reason for the RMT. Blame him for this.
This team originally stems from me being extremely bad at pokemon and bored with the game. Originally, I had made a manual sand team involving the dreaded Vulpix and Tangla core along side an incredibly bad Double Rush core of Sandstorm Drilbur and Sandstorm Sandshrew. Since then, Tangla has been smashed by the ban hammer leaving me to abandon the team. However, recently this guy named CorporalNerdLevi inspired me to bring back by manual sand shenanigans and after several phases I managed to create a decent team, sotra. Thus, I present:
Darude - Sandstorm
The song? (Lileep) @ Eviolite
Ability: Storm Drain
Level: 5
EVs: 148 HP / 220 Def / 140 SpD
EVs: 228 HP / 220 Def / 60 SpD
Bold Nature
- Giga Drain
- Stealth Rock
- Recover
- Sandstorm
Lileep is the first pokemon within my Fire-Grass-Water core and provides much needed team support. Setting up Stealth Rock and Sandstorm are Lileep's primary functions; the second is to wall or pivot and switch into Pokemon that trouble its teammates, such as Foongus, Abra, Staryu, Chinchou, Ponyta, and an assortment of other special attackers. Giga Drain gets STAB while recovering HP, and hits the common Rapid Spinners hard. Recover is fairly self explanatory and synergizes well with Lileep's Special Defense boost in Sand. Lileep also has the added bonus of being able to take on Sun sweepers fairly well and ruining their reighn with SandStorm.
Name of 1st song? (Ponyta) @ Eviolite
Ability: Flame Body
Level: 5
Happiness: 0
EVs: 116 HP / 76 Def / 76 SpD / 196 Spe
Impish Nature
- Will-O-Wisp
- Flare Blitz
-Frustration Toxic
- Morning Sun
Ponyta is the second member of the Fire-Grass-Water core and synergizes well with Lileep as it takes on most Fighting types and Steel types who try to harm Lileep. Ponyta will happily spreads burns throughout the opposing team weakening their attacks. Flare Blitz can and will cause a surprising amount of late game problems for most teams. Morning Sun provides recovery, increasing the longevity and utility of Ponyta greatly. The addition of Toxic allows Ponyta to out handle other threats, such as Shellos and Lileep, with more efficiency.
Song at 0:21? (Shellos) @ Eviolite
Ability: Sticky Hold
Level: 5
EVs: 228 HP / 132 Def / 100 SpD / 4 Spe
Bold Nature
- Recover
- Scald
- Earth Power
- Stockpile
Shellos was going to be the obvious choice for my Water type as Chinchou made me lost to Drilbur way too often and really despise Mienfoo's Knock Off. Diglett trapping Chinchou also sucked to an extreme amount. Shellos doesn't suffer from any of these at the expense of not beating Fletchling nearly as often, but I have enough checks for Fletchling anyway. Recovery outside of Resttalk is also greatly liked and Earth Power makes Croagunk and Chinchou regret switching in as well.
The song's name? (Timburr) @ Eviolite
Ability: Guts
Level: 5
EVs: 76 HP / 196 Atk / 236 SpD
Careful Nature
- Bulk Up
- Mach Punch
- Drain Punch
- Knock Off
Timburr primary acts as both a Status absorber and an answer to Dark types who handle my team decently without Timburr present. Drain Punch keeps it healthy enough throughout the match, allowing Timburr to continue to be useful for awhile. Mach Punch is one of Timburr's main draws over Mienfoo, and adds some nice and very needed priority to the team. Having another win condition is also fairly handy.
What is that song? (Pawniard) @ Eviolite
Ability: Defiant
Level: 5
EVs: 76 HP / 236 Atk / 36 Def / 36 SpD / 116 Spe
Adamant Nature
- Sandstorm
- Iron Head
- Knock Off
- Sucker Punch
Pawniard provides Knock Off support throughout the game as well as priority Sucker Punch to screw over Gastly and picking off Abra who otherwise simply ruin me. Iron Head helps with dealing with Spritzee and Cottonee which also annoys this team a tad more than I would enjoy and compliments the Knock Off core formed between Timburr and itself well. Pawniard also sets Sandstorm for some passive damage and a buff to Lileep and Sandshrew for a few turns.
Song name? (Sandshrew) @Eviolite Berry Juice
Ability: Sand Rush
Level: 5
EVs: 116 HP / 76 Atk / 76 Def / 196 SpD / 36 Spe
EVs: 236 Atk / 236 Def / 36 Spe
Adamant Nature
- Rapid Spin
-Rock Tomb Rock Slide
- Earthquake
- Sandstorm
As the final sand setter for this team, Sandshrew also provides much needed Rapid Spin support and handles Trubbish relatively well.11 speed is used to outspeed most scarfers when in the Sandstorm and allows bulk to be maximized and a small amount of Attack to be invested. Rock Tomb is used as Rock Slide lacks any notable traits besides the Flinch chance, but since Sandshrew and the team are so slow, the speed drop from Rock Tomb possesses more utility. 36 Speed EVs allows Sandshrew to hit 22 Speed while Sandstorm is active, enough to outspeed 14 Speed Choice Scarf users while allowing me to maximise its attack. With this higher attack, Rock Slide gains KOes over Rock Tomb, especially after Stealth Rocks. Berry Juice gives Sandshrew the ability to live an extra hit, granted it doesn't KO him (very few physical attacks do) or is Knock Off.
