Latios (M) @ Choice Specs
Trait: Levitate
EVs: 4 HP / 252 SAtk / 252 Spd
Timid Nature
- Draco Meteor
- Psychic
- Surf
- Thunderbolt
Standard Latios specs set. Basically hit something hard with draco and switch out if needed. Other moves for coverage mostly. Question: Should I replace something with HP fire? Cause ferrothorns give me a hard time.
Mamoswine @ Focus Sash
Trait: Thick Fat
EVs: 4 HP / 252 Atk / 252 Spd
Jolly Nature
- Earthquake
- Endeavor
- Ice Shard
- Stealth Rock
Mamoswine is my dragon counter primarily. Ice shard makes them flee while I can set up rocks if necessary. EQ provides a great STAB for it and hits things hard. Endeavor for the focus sash purpose and is an effective way because of priority ice shard to finished the Pokemon after it takes the Endeavor.
Tentacruel @ Black Sludge
Trait: Rain Dish
EVs: 252 HP / 240 Def / 16 Spd
Bold Nature
- Rapid Spin
- Scald
- Toxic Spikes
- Giga Drain
I obviously need a rapid spinner for my Volcarona and Mamoswine (since it has a sash) and I find Tentacruel to be the perfect fit. A good tank and wall overall, Tentacruel also effectively sets up toxic spikes which helps me tremendously.
Volcarona @ Leftovers
Trait: Flame Body
EVs: 4 HP / 252 SAtk / 252 Spd
Timid Nature
- Bug Buzz
- Fiery Dance
- Giga Drain
- Quiver Dance
This is one of my main sweepers. Volcarona literally can WRECK havoc by just having one quiver dance up. It can sweep teams at ease. All moves provide great coverage for Pokemon that want to come and counter/check this poke.
Scizor @ Choice Band
Trait: Technician
EVs: 252 HP / 252 Atk / 4 SDef
Adamant Nature
- U-turn
- Bullet Punch
- Pursuit
- Superpower
Standard Scizor banded set. Since I don't have a ground move except for Mamoswine, bullet punch hits rock types hard. With STAB U-turn and Bullet punch, able to OHKO threats like T-tar, Scizor is a perfect fit for this team.
Infernape @ Choice Scarf
Trait: Blaze
EVs: 252 Atk / 4 SDef / 252 Spd
Jolly Nature
- Close Combat
- Flare Blitz
- U-turn
- Stone Edge
My lead. Another standard set. I love this set because it is a potent revenge killer and can get a lot of teams in trouble because lets say there was a psychic type. Example: Latios. If Latios stays in, it gets it HARD with U-turn being super effective. If it wants to switch out, I get switch initiative.
NOTE: This team has performed above average compared to my other teams. So, I am doing something right... however, I know every team isn't perfect at first, so I know there are some changes that can be made.
Provide as much insight at possible. Thank you so much!
