So this is my first B/W team and its done pretty well thus far; however, it seems to always have the same problems. It gets eaten up by sandstorm excadrill, and has many problems with subbing breloom. And Tyranitar! Oh gosh how that guy can just tear through if he isnt taken down carefully. Another major weakness is that it gets owned by all thundurus, landorus, and tornadus! It does okay against sun teams, and rain teams, except those pesky Dry Skin Toxicroaks. Anyways, heres the team.
Espeon @ Light Clay
Ability: Magic Bounce
EVs: 196 HP 252 Speed 40 Sp Atk
Nature: Timid
- Light Screen
- Reflect
- Psyshock
- Hidden Power (Ice)
So this guy has just made my day sometimes. Upon the start of any battle, he can set up atleast 1 screen, whether it be light screen or reflect, and then he will have about half hp left. Depending on what they started with, I will either leave him in to make a sacrifice to get off my other screen, or i'll sub him out. Many people dont predict that it is a dual screen espeon, so they sub out into a wall, giving me a free turn. However, Tyranitar and Scizor tend to put big dents in this guys HP. Psyshock > Psychic only because many people know Espeon is a Sp. Sweeper so they sub in a Sp. Sweeper wall, only to get wrecked my Psyshock. Hidden Power Ice is there to OTK those pesky Gliscors, even if they have 252 HP and 252 SP. Def, which is also the reason for the 60 Sp Atk EVs.
Darmanitan @ Air Balloon
Ability: Sheer Force
EVs: 252 Atk 252 Speed 4 Sp Def
Nature: Jolly
- Flare Blitz
- Earthquake
- Rock Slide
- U-Turn
Although this guy has pulled off some crazy things for me, I'm not completely convinced he deserves a spot on my team. Flare Blitz for obvious STAB, EQ and Rock Slide for coverage, and Rock Slide against those Salamences, and U-Turn to just get some damage in before I switch out on ugly pokemon like Snorlax or something. I use Air Balloon only because most pokemon with EQ can still outspeed this guy, a major counter being Sandstorm Excadrill. However, I am willing to change this guy or even take him off the team entirely to better my team.
Ferrothorn @ Leftovers
Ability: Iron Barbs
EVs: 252 HP 252 Def 4 Atk
Nature: Impish
- Stealth Rock
- Gyro Ball
- Leech Seed
- Power Whip
So this is just a pretty standard Ferrothorn. Works pretty well in conjunction with my next pokemon. Overall, this thing is amazing! Often first turn move with Ferrothorn is to just throw him in to counter an attack and throw up leech seed. With Leech Seed up, this thing is a bitch to take down. Leftovers + Leech Seed each turn recovers roughly 80 HP every turn, approximately 1/4 of Ferrothorns HP. <3 Ferrothorn Sweeping. Very squishy against Sub Brelooms, Toxicroak, Fire Blast Salamence/T-tar.
Milotic @ Leftovers
Ability: Marvel Scale
EVs: 252 HP 48 Def 208 Sp Def
Nature: Calm
- Scald
- Dragon Tail
- Rest
- Sleep Talk
Oh Milotic. This is my favorite pokemon, by far. I swear to all, this pokemon can take more hits from things than anything. One of the bulkiest walls out there. Takes 3 T-Bolts from a Jolteon to get this thing down. Anyways, Scald for STAB and to setup burns on the opponents pokemon. Dragon Tail is there really to mess up people who are trying to set up, for instance, SS cloysters, Quiver Dancing Volcanarola, etc, and it works VERY well. It really disturbs those rare yet annoying BP'ing teams, and often results in my opponent rage quitting. I chose rest/sleeptalk over my old moveset, recover/confuse ray because rest gets rid of the status ailments, which is particularly useful when it gets poisoned or burned. Overall though, this pokemon is a champ and is underestimated by many people, resulting in many kills, and sometimes, sweeps.
Latios @ Life Orb
Ability: Levitate
EVs: 252 Sp Atk 252 Speed 4 Sp Def
Nature: Modest
- Dragon Pulse
- Thunderbolt
- Surf
- Hidden Power (Fire)
Latios.... Latios is a beast. Not gonna lie, Latios probably has one of the best movesets ever. With such awesome type coverage, not much can stand in its way. Not much to say about this thing. Dragon Pulse for STAB, T-bolt and Surf for coverage, while they also pick off pokemon which my opponents lazily sub in without taking movesets into consideration. Hidden Power Fire is there to take out Ferrothorn and Scizor, though a Scizor with 1 Sword Dance can OTK Latios with a Bullet Punch... :/
And Last but SURELY not least!!!
Terrakion @ Choice Band
Ability: Justified
EVs: 252 Speed 252 Atk 4 HP
Nature: Jolly
- X-Scissor
- Close Combat
- Earthquake
- Stone Edge
Terrakion is a beast. With 346 speed, not many things outspeed him, and in conjunction with his choice band, his attack is about 540~ish. This guy is often my go to pokemon when I need to end games. Frequently, I will bring this guy out when the battle is about midway, and he simply sweeps the other team with utter ease, like cutting butter with a knife. Hardly any wall can withstand a STAB close combat. And who cares if it racks up -4 or -5 Def and Sp Def, this thing is so fast, hardly any pokemon ever touchs it.
So overall, this team is a fun thing to play with, though I am sure it is no where near perfect, and thus, not done. Im not sure if I should keep Darmanitan in there or not. Anyways, thats for you guys to decide. :)
