The reason I made this thread is because I need help making A UU team for shoddy battle. This would be my first competitive team so I need an idea of what Pokemon to put in my 2 empty slots in my team. Below are the Pokemon I have so far.
Sableye/leftovers
Careful nature/stall
252 Hp/158 Def/100 Atk
-Counter
-Payback
-Taunt
-Recover
As my starter I tried to give him lasting power and with by maxing out hp and boosting def, counter takes advantage of this. Taunt makes counter more viable. Payback takes advantage of his unique ability stall. Finally recover gives him one thing over his superior counter part, spiritomb.
Venomoth/silverpowder
Timid Nature/Tinted Lens
6 Hp/252 SpA/252 Spd
-Stun Spore
-U-Turn
This strategy is simple, put things to sleep and hit them with bug buzz. due to tinted lens bug buzz should do significant damage whether its effective or not.Stun spore is for sleep clause and u-turn is to do a little damage with is inevitable switch, due to it's paper defenses.
Pelipper/leftovers
Bold Nature/Keen Eye
252 Hp/184 Def/74 SpA
-Air slash
-Hydro pump
-Roost
-Toxic
Pelipper is a favorite of mine for several reasons. Due to his high defense and special attack he can sponge off physical attacks and really harm physical Pokemon. The reason why I picked hydro pump over surf is because I had to take EVs in SpA and put them in Def so I figure that when I do hit I want to hit hard. Toxic and roost are there to out last Pokemon. Finally air slash is another STAB move that with hydro pump, covers a lot of types.
Toxicroak/life orb
Jolly Nature/Dry Skin
82 Hp/252 Atk/176 Spd
-Cross Chop
-Stone Edge
-Sucker Punch
-Swords Dance
This is straight out of the smogon guide. Its various attack moves are there to for weakness coverage and swords dance sets up a sweep.
So thats it, any advice would be greatly appreciated. So if any one has even a general idea as to what Pokemon would work well in the last two slots don't hesitate to say anything
