Favorite Dragons

[android49]

This team is made up of six out of my seven favorite Pokemon of all time (Gengar is the other). This will be for use in PBR, so it will be very offense oriented 3 vs. 3 battles. I want to keep the Pokemon the same because this is a fun team with my favorites.

At A Glance

Charizard @ Choice Scarf
Ability: Blaze
EVs: 6 HP, 252 SpAt, 252 Spd
Nature: Modest
Overheat
Air Slash
Focus Blast
Hidden Power (Ice)

This Charizard hits mostly anything exptremely hard with these moves. He is usually my lead because he can get in a quick OHKO, switch out, and come in to do it again.

Gyarados @ Wacan Berry
Ability: Intimidate
EVs: 72 HP, 252 Atk, 186 Spd
Nature: Adamant
Waterfall
Earthquake
Stone Edge
Dragon Dance

I am a huge fan of an all out sweeper Gyarados. Wacan Berry almost insures that he will survive an Electric attack and either Dragon Dance or OHKO the enemy Pokemon

Ampharos @ Leftovers
Ability: Static
EVs: 126 HP, 134 Def, 252 SpAt
Nature: Modest
Thunderbolt
Hidden Power (Ice)
Counter
Heal Bell

Ok this guy looks kinda like a dragon right lol? You can disagree if you want. Anyway, this is the member of the team I need the most help with. I just do not know what I want with him, but I know I want to use him. My current set has BoltBeam attack coverage, Counter for Earthquakes, and Heal Bell for team support. The EVs are for maximum Leftovers recovery, maximum SpAt, and nearly even Def and SpDf. Any help with this guy is greatly needed.

Sceptile @ Petaya Berry
Ability: Overgrow
Evs: 6 Def, 252 SpAt, 252 Spd
Nature: Timid
Energy Ball
Hidden Power (Fire)
Leech Seed
Substitute

Fastest SubSeeder in the game. It whittles down the opponent (and itself) until Overgrow and Petaya Berry activate, then sweeps. Hidden Power Fire offers type coverage and hits any Grass that is immune to Leech Seed.

Garchomp @ Yache Berry
Ability: Sand Veil
EVs: 6 HP, 252 Atk, 252 Spd
Nature: Jolly
Dragon Claw
Earthquake
Fire Fang
Swords Dance

Standard Garchomp, and standard for a reason. This thing kicks tail! Yache Berry to survive a vicious Ice move. Garchomp and Gyarados are the two best OU physical sweepers in my opinion.

Lucario @ Choice Specs
Ability: Steadfast
Evs: 6 Def, 252 SpAt, 252 Spd
Nature: Modest
Aura Sphere
Vacuum Wave
Dragon Pulse
Dark Pulse

SpecsLuke hammers nearly everything with Aura Sphere and his other moves. I always have preferred this moveset in 3 vs. 3 to the standard, but its not set in stone

Thank you for any and all help! I hope you like the team.

Specs Luke wants Vaccuum Wave over Psychic

 

[android49]

Alright, is that the only thing that should change?

 

[speedwobbles225]

I really like your sceptile set, but you cant do two things at once, you need leftovers if you want to subseed

 

[android49]

Leftovers is probably a better item to use. Does anyone have any opinions on how to make Ampharos better?

 

[Janenmori]

The way to make it better is to not use it at all. I would use Bulky Zapdos if you want something that can take a hit and counter Gyarados.

 

[RaikouLover]

Ummm no, Zapdos is NOT a Gyarados counter. Believe it or not, sceptile is one of the best Gyarados counters, provided it has Leafstorm and Choice Specs, as this will rip off 80% of Gyarados' health, and you still will outspeed it after a Dragon Dance. So if stealth rock is out, I would call that a safe counter... I would use Choice Specs, because subseeding is crap IMO.

 

[android49]

Yeah... lol. Ampharos sucks, but I love him. This is mostly a fun team anyway, so i would love to keep him. He might be too bad to even use...
