Here's my first competitive team, I picked some Pokemons I love and some meta picks
This is my first team and I need some guidance.
(Gengar) @ Choice Scarf
Ability: Cursed Body
EVs: 252 SpA / 4 SpD / 252 Spe
Timid Nature
IVs: 0 Atk
- Dazzling Gleam
- Focus Blast
- Sludge Wave
- Shadow Ball
Gengar is my revenge killer. I use choice scarf to have great speed and can Dynamax if I need to get rid of the lock.
Focus Blast give me coverage and access to Max Darkness if needed.
(Corviknight) (M) @ Leftovers
Ability: Mirror Armor
EVs: 248 HP / 208 SpD / 52 Spe
Careful Nature
- Brave Bird
- Roost
- Taunt
- Bulk Up
Corviknight is my go to if I want a Bulky Attacker. Bulk Up gives me the damage I need if I can set up properly and taunt gets rid
of threats like Gothitelle's Cosmic Power and other moves of the sort. He can also take a few hits and stalls surprisingly well if needed
(Darmanitan-Galar) @ Choice Band
Ability: Gorilla Tactics
EVs: 252 Atk / 92 Def / 92 SpD / 74 Spe
Adamant Nature
- Flare Blitz
- Icicle Crash
- Earthquake
- U-turn
Galarian Darmanitan is my Physical Sweeper. I chose U-Turn to go quickly in and out of unwanted matchups.
EQ, Icicle Crash and Flare Blitz give me a lot of options and type coverage. Flare Blitz helps vs Ferrothorn and Corviknight
Toxapex @ Black Sludge
Ability: Regenerator
Happiness: 160
EVs: 252 HP / 252 Def / 4 Spe
Bold Nature
IVs: 0 Atk
- Scald
- Recover
- Baneful Bunker
- Toxic Spikes
Toxapex usually helps me setup things such as Toxic Spikes or Bulk Up on Corviknight.
He's pretty good to stall and Recovery with Black Sludge is annoying to deal with. Scald helps me against Pokemons like
Excadrill and Ttar and can get some clutch burns from time to time
Rotom-Wash @ Heavy-Duty Boots
Ability: Levitate
EVs: 252 HP / 252 SpA / 4 SpD
Modest Nature
IVs: 0 Atk
- Hydro Pump
- Volt Switch
- Will-O-Wisp
- Thunder Wave
Rotom helps me scout and can get rid of things like Gyarados and Toxapex. I gave him a bit of utility with Will-O-Wisp
and Thunder Wave and Volt Switch to switch into somehing more suitable if needed.
Grimmsnarl @ Lagging Tail
Ability: Prankster
EVs: 252 HP / 252 Atk / 4 SpD
Adamant Nature
- Fake Out
- Trick
- Play Rough
- Sucker Punch
Grimmsnarl is pretty cool. He can be really helpful against some top threats and I really love using Trick and Lagging Tail
against fast Mons like Excadrill and Dragapult.
What would you change? Is there any Mons that would fit in this comp better? This is my first time building a team and I feel so overwhelmed. Thanks for the help in advance! AllI know is that I want to center the team around G-Darmanitar and Gengar
