So, my old thread got deleted because I didn't write 3 lines per Pokemon but that wont happen again (hopefully :P). I will write a few lines to every Pokemon of my Team at the bottom of this post.
Nidoking: He's one of my Special Attackers. I basically took the build from VGC'12 but replaced Protect with Shadow Ball as it proved pretty much useless in numerous fights. Thanks to Sheer Force he isnt damaged by Life Orb and hits pretty hard with every attack. He replaced my Tyranitar after coming to the conclusion that Tyranitar is just too slow and weak against Fighting-Types wheareas Nidoking is both faster and has an awesome resistance to Fighting-Types due to it being a Poison-Type.
Electivire: Is one of my favourite Electric Pokemon right now and a Physical Attacker. I gave him the Muscle Band because i try to avoid having same items on my team and because it increases the strength of physical attacks. The best thing about it and the reason I chose Electivire is its amazing speed which allows me to often OHKO the opponent before he even attacked. He also survives most attacks with a little bit of HP left for a counter.
Hydreigon: Replaced my Dragonite as I noticed that having having 3 Flying-Types is too easy for the opponent. I use him as a Mixed Attacker who is able to OHKO or at least punch severe wounds quite often thanks to Expert Belt. It also has great speed . Superpower is used to surprise the enemy with a sudden physical attack. Im thinking about switching in some other Dragon-Type due to the fighting weakness but I'm not sure which one would work out best here. Feel free to suggest replacements ;)
Gyarados: My favourite Water-Type and another Physical Attacker. I gave him Focus Sash to survive the first round 100% to allow a Dragon Dance. After that, it outspeeds most other Pokemon and also hits harder thanks to the attack-boost. Waterfall is his STAB move and i chose Stone Edge over Earthquake because many others on my team already use Earthquake. I chose Gyarados because of its base Atk which along with its Speed and Dragon Dance is able to devastate many teams.
Snorlax: He is one of my alltime favourite Walls :P I use him as a mix between Wall and Physical attacker (also known as Curselax) which seems to work pretty often. I also chose Bodyslam over Return because of the para-effect which saved my life a few times. I used this build since diamond and pearl and I'm pretty sure he is the most useful Pokemon in my team currently. I often end up with him as my last Pokemon and easily disposing of 2-3 enemies. Im thinking about replacing Rest with Crunch but I'm like to hear opinions first.
Charizard: Is my favourite Fire-Type and another Special Attacker. Fire Blast and Air Slash are its STAB's and build a nice coverage along with Focal Blast. I gave it a Quick Claw because it can sometimes save its life when the opponent happens to be faster but low on HP. Sometimes I give it a Wide Lens to prevent its Fire Blast and Focal Blast from missing. I used to use a Solar Power build but found this one to be better in terms of surviving.
Soooo, I tried to build a team out of my favourite Pokemon and to have a great mixed tier team out of this! Pls rate my team and help me improve it !
thx in advance!
