A first look
Hello Smogon! Qwsd9 here with my first RMT, I have been a long time lurker on smogon and have been dabbling in competitive battling since Gen 3, i have been using this team for a while now and have been somewhat succesful but i would love some feedback on how i can improve it. So without further ado the team!
A final look
Pineco (M) @ Berry Juice
Level:(1-4)
Trait: Sturdy
EVs:
Hardy Nature
- Stealth Rock
- Toxic Spikes
- Spikes
- Pain Split
Ah pineco my lead, basically a hazard version of Aron with Shell Bell. Pineco unlike it's evolution Fortress, is guaranteed at lest two entry hazard setups, as long Pineco isn't poisoned, frozen, or burned. All three of the current entry hazards at at Pineco's command, I usually lead with stealth rock to catch any Dragonites from being able to use multiscale. The option of using Spikes or their toxic version are up to you. Pain Split turns Pineco into an annoyance that constantly gets to use sturdy.
Scrafty (M) @ Life Orb
Trait: Moxie
EVs: 4 HP / 252 Atk / 252 Spd
Jolly Nature (+Spd, -SAtk)
- Dragon Dance
- Drain Punch
- Crunch
- Ice Punch
Scrafty my physical sweeper, I truly love this pokemon, its quite amazing how many teams i have 6-0 swept with this little lizard, i usually only need one dragon dance as moxie boosts his attack after every OHKO making scrafty deadlier. I use Drain punch over hi jump kick as drain punch negates the effects of life orb and i absolutely despise it when hi jump kick misses and messes up a sweep.
Heatran (M) @ Choice Scarf
Trait: Flash Fire
EVs: 4 HP / 252 SAtk / 252 Spd
Rash Nature (+SAtk, -SDef)
- Fire Blast
- Earth Power
- Explosion
- Dragon Pulse
Heatran is an excellent revenge killer as he checks alot of the current meta game such as Scizor, Lucario, Infernape, and Dragonite. Explosion is for any blissey or chansey that thinks they can wall my special attacks, Fire blast is STAB earth power for coverage and dragon pulse for some neutral damage.
Gliscor (M) @ Toxic Orb
Trait: Poison Heal
EVs: 252 HP / 4 Atk / 252 Def
Impish Nature (+Def, -SAtk)
- Toxic
- Protect
- Earthquake
- Ice Fang
Gliscor is my defensive wall, not much to explain. I chose toxic over swords dance as i prefer his stalling capabilities to his sweeping and he checks excadrill fantastically.
Thundurus (M) @ Life Orb
Trait: Prankster
EVs: 4 HP / 252 SAtk / 252 Spd
Timid Nature (+Spd, -Atk)
- Nasty Plot
- Thunder Wave
- Thunderbolt
- Focus Blast
Thundurus is my special sweeper. He can switch in nasty plot and sweep with relative ease. I chose thunder wave over taunt as i prefer the paralysis in a speedy metagame.
Porygon2 @ Eviolite
Trait: Download
EVs: 252 HP / 4 SAtk / 252 SDef
Calm Nature (+SDef, -Atk)
- Thunderbolt
- Ice Beam
- Recover
- Toxic
Porygon2 is my special wall, Porygon-2 with Eviolite is pretty awesome. Gives it stupidly good Def and Sp. Def. i chose porygon2 as my special wall because of its recovery move, good coverage and its not completley incompetent as an attacker unlike blissey.
Well thanks for reading my RMT any suggestions are greatly appreciated!
