Hi everyone.
This is my first message in the forum, i never thought to join here, but i have read you very often. I have read the guidelines to post in RMT and i hope to make my decriptions the most complete possible.
When i decided top build up this team, my idea war not to use the common overused pokemon as Rotom W, Garchomp, Mawile, Salamence, Meostic, Rotom H or aegislash. I tried to not use OU pokemon at all, but sadly, i made a lot of attemps with low results, then i decided to use just 1 or 2 pokemon that i see commonly against me.
Build Processing
I started with this 2 pokemon. They work really well together thanks to the immunity of zapdos to earthquake and the immunity of Mamoswine to discharge. The first idea was to spam this moves every moment. Zapdos would kill most of the water pokemon, than Charizard and Talonflame and makes several damages to every enemy with a low sp. Defense. Mamoswine works well in many situations. To this point I found that the biggest problem of this two were the grass type, ice type and Rotom W.
I decided to get immediatly a cover for rotom W with Ferrothorn. I was not warried about Charizard Y and Talonflame because of Zapdos, and Ferrothorn gives to the team the coverage I need to Rotom W getting a OHKO to him and i can easly switch out contrasting some grass type and Amoonguss spore or Venusaur sleep powder. With Ferrothorn inside the two biggest flaws where fight (both ferrothorn and mamoswine) and fire (ferrothorn only because of thick fat of mamoswine.
I thought flash fire Chandelure was the best option for this. He compense the weakness of Ferrothorn and Mamoswine and can hit hard against Mega Lucario, Ferrothorn and Scizor. He is helpfull also against Amoonguss and Venusaur. Except Lucario, I had difficulty to get down those enemies. Chandelure can provide easly to this. To this point i started to do some matches in order to see the real weaknesses of my team. I find out that the biggest problem where fire, water and fight. Than Hydreigon, Scrafty, Conkeldurr, Rotom H and Gengar were the real threaten. In addiction to this Prankster pokemon weren't easy to manage.
Azumarill was my best option. He resists to fight, fire and water and takes down Hydreigon, Scrafty, Conkeldurr and Rotom H with no problems. There isn't another pokemon who can to this better than him. I can easly change pokemon and thanks to his defenses i can also hit later. Mr. Mime is the support of the team. I've chosen him because I really like him and with filter he can takes many hits before going down. The support is given with Safeguard and he annoying with Teeter Dance too.
BUILD
Mamoswine @ Focus Sash
Ability: Thick Fat
EVs: 196 HP / 60 Spd / 252 Atk
Adamant Nature
- Ice Shard
- Earthquake
- Protect
- Icicle Crash
I found this Evs spread here in smogon, I think i'm no good with this, so i tested with that spread and it worked. I've chosen Focus Sash because it really soffers special hits and when he gets one, his life easly go down. Lucario's Cannonflash is an example of this. Earthquake is a nice combo with Zapdos and needs no explanations. Icicle Crash for dragons and grass types and Ice Shard for the prior. I think he is a relevant member of the team. Also with 0,67x attack he makes very high damage and take down several enemies.
Zapdos @ Life Orb
Ability: Pressure
EVs: 252 SAtk / 252 Spd / 4 HP
Timid Nature
- Thunderbolt
- Discharge
- Protect
- Light Screen
I think this is a good set for him. Timid nature is essential for outspeed Charizard Y and some others threatens. Sadly, the timid nature doens't give him the power of shotting down Charizard Y and Politoed. Thunderbolt and life orb provide to this. In fact I can easly OHKO them. Light Screen is a cover to Mamoswine. With Mamoswine he works very well, discharge makes him a very good sweeper in the team
Ferrothorn @ Lum Berry
Ability: Iron Barbs
EVs: 252 HP / 204 Atk / 54 SDef
Brave Nature
IVs: 0 Spd
- Gyro Ball
- Power Whip
- Thunder Wave
- Protect
His main role is to take down Rotom W. That's why i gave him Lum berry. Power Whip OHKO Rotom W and some others ground and water threatens. Fairy types such as Gardevoir are OHKOed too. I have a 2HKO against garchomp and 2HKO against Salamence after intimidate. Thunder Wave is a good support covering the low speed of Azumarill and Mamoswine. Ferrothorn is also a good check for threat room team with the OHKO on slowbro and slowking.
Chandelure @ Choice Scarf
Ability: Flash Fire
EVs: 84 Spd / 252 SAtk / 172 HP
Modest Nature
- Shadow Ball
- Dark Pulse
- Energy Ball
- Heat Wave
Choice Scarf was the best choice for him. I haven't in the team anyone who outspeeds most of the tier. I needed a very fast special fire sweeper and that's him scarfed. I think I can make a better evs spread, but I'm not very good to this. I tried to change with low results. Heat Wave is the main move. He shoots down Aegislash and Mawile and i've chosen him for the coverage given to Mamoswine and Ferrothorn.
Azumarill @ Weakness Policy
Ability: Huge Power
EVs: 252 HP / 252 Atk / 4 SDef
Adamant Nature
- Protect
- Aqua Jet
- Play Rough
- Helping Hand
Weakness policy is perfect to him. I've never seen it dying with a supereffective move. Acqua Jet and Play rough works well and helping hand gives Chandelure a very powerfull Heat Wave. His resistance to fire, fight and water was what i needed and he has OHKO to Hydreigon, Scrafty, Conkeldurr and Rotom H.
Mr. Mime @ Mental Herb
Ability: Filter
EVs: 252 HP / 252 Def / 4 SDef
Bold Nature
- Fake Out
- Teeter Dance
- Safeguard
- Psychic
Annoyer and supporter of the team. I do not know if I've given a right evs spread. I think he is good with this evs spread, he can takes several hits before die. Teeter Dance is the core of this pokemon: confusing 2 enemies is perfect in my opinion. Only Ludicolo and Mr Mime has this fantastic move. But i choose him not only for teeter dance, but to counter Smeargle and Amoonguss and some other prankster with Safeguard. The mental Herb is here to prevent taunt and psychic was the better option for an offensive move.
Conclusions
I think you appreciate the team and the description. I'm sorry if you find some english error but i'm no so good at this. I think that the team has good synergies and works well againts almost every situations. I would like to get advices for evs spread and item. Your opinion really interest me.
See you soon and thanks!
