First X/Y competitive team I wanted to breed in game but tried showdown to see how well it would do. Some main concerns I have is I feel Bisharp could be replaced but idk with what since he does decent but I feel this team could do better. Would also like feedback on EV spreads and I feel the main problems I have from practicing has been stall teams and certain strong megas. Thanks for your input, I'm also open to any suggestions since this is my first team. I don't mind if you replace certain pokes that you feel would accomplish what I would like and more.
Pinsir @ Pinsirite
Ability: Mold Breaker
EVs: 4 HP / 252 Atk / 252 Spd
Adamant Nature
- Earthquake
- Quick Attack
- Swords Dance
- Return
Main pokemon of this team that I have become a huge fan of due to Aerilate being such an awesome ability. Mold Breaker used here to kill pokemon like Rotom-W since Mega cannot do it due to most of them running Volt Switch. Otherwise I think the set is pretty self explanatory and standard.
Excadrill @ Assault Vest
Ability: Mold Breaker
EVs: 182 HP / 252 Atk / 76 Spd
Adamant Nature
- Earthquake
- Rapid Spin
- Rock Slide
- Shadow Claw
One of my favorites, Honestly used him because I needed a spinner since M-Pinsir is flying and does not like rocks. Assault Vest bulky helps him kill a bunch of stuff from my experience than the typical 252atk/252speed/4hp set.
Mamoswine @ Focus Sash
Ability: Thick Fat
EVs: 4 HP / 252 Atk / 252 Spd
Jolly Nature
- Earthquake
- Icicle Crash
- Ice Shard
- Stealth Rock
Anti-lead/suicide. Kills w/e he can while setting up rocks pretty standard. Handles a lot of stuff due to his raw damage and innate tankiness from Thick Fat. Although the majority of the times he will die, he still usually takes down a target with hm or scouts something important.
Bisharp @ Dread Plate
Ability: Defiant
EVs: 124 HP / 252 Atk / 132 Spd
Adamant Nature
IVs: 30 Atk / 30 Def
- Night Slash
- Iron Head
- Sucker Punch
- Swords Dance
This guy so far has been decent after 1 SD he kills a lot of stuff. However with Bisharp I have a huge gapping 4/6 weak to fire that I would like to remedy even though 1 of them is bulky and Mamo being Thick Fat and is proned to death, still I just feel he could be replaced even though he does decently well.
Togekiss @ Choice Scarf
Ability: Serene Grace
EVs: 4 HP / 252 SAtk / 252 Spd
Modest Nature
- Air Slash
- Dazzling Gleam
- Shadow Ball
- Flamethrower
Read someone else's Pinsir RMT and found Togekiss a really good revenge killer thats immune to Dragon, She does her job well kills the targets that my other guys couldn't do and checks Gengar properly since Scarf will help me outspeed him. Also the person I use to kill Ferrothorn. Also doesn't like rocks which makes Excadrills job even more important and the reason why he needs to be tanky imo.
Rotom-Wash @ Chesto Berry
Ability: Levitate
EVs: 252 HP / 252 Def / 4 SAtk
Bold Nature
- Hydro Pump
- Volt Switch
- Will-O-Wisp
- Rest
Rotom-W such an amazing tank that helps alleviate so much of my pain from physical sweepers due to Will-o-Wisp. Although I feel Rest could be replaced for Pain Split and I could maybe use a better EV spread but thats the only issue I have with him that would like feedback on.
