Okay because dragon is my favorite type I wanted to make a fun none serious team that I could just have fun with ,but when it wasn't loosing I checked my rank and it was at 92! on the po sever which I only use for testing fun stuff so then I took it to the Smogon server and had the same results getting me to rank 32 in no time at all. since then I switched to the team I was using before that had got me to 1450 at one point(I know pure stupidity :(. I only did that cuz I thought that team was better and I thought I could get back into the top 20 but guess not) and have dropped to 87.
The Idea is to remove steel types then paralyze the opponets non-steel pokes. After this is done there's nothing to stop my three dragons from smashing their opponets with Outrages. So here's the team
(Jirachi) @ Leftovers
Trait: Serene Grace
EVs: 252 HP / 52 Atk / 180 SDef / 24 Spd
Careful Nature (+SDef, -SAtk)
- Stealth Rock
- Iron Head
- Body Slam
- Fire Punch
I don't know about you ,but when I see jirachi I think "Grrrreeeaat" even if I have 5 counters becuase the Hax king is just that annoying. pretty standard set on him he gets my rocks up early in the match and then proceeds to paralyze everything in sight. Because that helps my banded dragons sweep easier. Fire punch is just there to do some damage to ferrathorn and scizor, like I said pretty standard not much to say.
Magnezone @ Leftovers
Trait: Magnet Pull
EVs: 32 HP / 252 SAtk / 224 Spd
Timid Nature (+Spd, -Atk)
- Substitute
- Thunderbolt
- Hidden Power [Fire]
- Flash Cannon
Magnezone is a must have. I can't even number how many steels i've killed using mag and considering steel is the only type that resist dragon its very very helpful. As you can see I do not have charge beam on this set as I need to be able to cover the non flying dragon types and just get in and kill their steel pokes. I run a timid nature on it so I will out speed offensive scizor because when I used my offensive scizor I was able to catch a lot of magnezone off guard out speeding modest mag then koing with superpower, yes the power drop can get annoying but I think its worth it to be able to kill off all scizor barring scarfed variants.
Rotom-W @ Leftovers
Trait: Levitate
EVs: 112 HP / 252 SAtk / 144 Spd
Modest Nature (+SAtk, -Atk)
- Pain Split
- Volt Switch
- Hydro Pump
- Thunder Wave
Rotom Wash has been one of my favorite pokes since 5th gen blessed it with the electric/water typing making it so much more useful in some ways. I have found this poke to be useful with just about any set. For this team I needed a heatran counter that could also paralyze pokes, and I thought of rotom wash instantly not only can he do that but he also helps with synergy giving me an extra fire resistance so I don't have to go into my dragons to take a fire hit early in the game risking a burn. Over all he severs a geat scouter and my best counter to gyara and heatran.
Haxorus (M) @ Choice Band
Trait: Mold Breaker
EVs: 252 Atk / 4 SDef / 252 Spd
Adamant Nature (+Atk, -SAtk)
- Outrage
- Dual Chop
- Earthquake
- Brick Break
Haxorus is basically pure distruction with 147 base attack adamant and choice band there's nearly nothing that can take a hit after the steel types are cleared especially when that move is outrage. Bacause of his average speed jirachi and rotom-W help a lot paralyzing everything alowing him to outspeed and use his power freely.
Dragonite (M) @ Choice Band
Trait: Multiscale
EVs: 252 Atk / 4 Def / 252 Spd
Adamant Nature (+Atk, -SAtk)
- Outrage
- Fire Punch
- Earthquake
- ExtremeSpeed
He may not be pure distruction ,but I think he might be his half brother. Dragonite has been one of my favorite pokes since I was 5 years old playing pokemon red crushing my opponets with his hyper beam, since then he still remains to be one of my favorites and still continues to crush opponets ,but the move of choice is no longer hyper beam its Outrage.
Much like Haxsorus this guy loves to come in and outrage everything and with all the steel types gone I have nothing wrong with that. He even has more bulk and is able to take a few hits unlike haxsorus, on top of that he even has priority making him a great poke to take down the annoying sucker punchers. The only down side to D-nite is his low speed which is taken care of by jirachi and rotom between those two the entire team can be paralyzed and the speed doesn't really matter.
Salamence (M) @ Choice Scarf
Trait: Moxie
EVs: 252 Atk / 252 Spd
Jolly Nature (+Spd, -SAtk)
- Dragon Claw
- Earthquake
- Brick Break
- Aerial Ace
If you couldn't already tell salamence is my favorite pokemon of all time and when I saw he was getting moxie I was real excited to see him in action, and he's done just as much sweeping as his dragon brethren because of moxie. This was the first time i've seen moxie mence work and its become my favorite scarf user being able to catch latios off gaurd expecting him to have cb like the others then its like a bowling ball going down hill. As you can see he's goal is sweep with dragon claw and everything else is really just extra covrage stab aerial ace is some what useful if its one on one with a fighting type ,and earthquake/brick break just incase mag didn't get all the steel types ,but nothing more then the other two.
So there you have it please tell me what you think! Also if you want to see this team in action go to my youtube: http://www.youtube.com/user/salamence1100 and subscribe! Thanks! :D
