Hello everyone! I have recently gotten back into Pokemon a few weeks ago and am now trying to make a Hyper Offense team and I am looking for any help I can get as I do not know the typings, resistances, what pokemons are good for what, etc.
The team includes:
1.
Azelf @ Focus Sash
Ability: Levitate
EVs: 4 HP / 252 Atk / 252 Spe
Jolly Nature
- Stealth Rock
- Taunt
- Skill Swap
- Explosion
This is just the standardish stealth rock suicide lead so that certain sweepers can one shot focus sash/sturdy pokemons (and just chip in general)
2.
Rillaboom @ Life Orb
Ability: Grassy Surge
EVs: 252 Atk / 4 Def / 252 Spe
Adamant Nature
- Swords Dance
- Grassy Glide
- Knock Off
- Superpower
This is a really good clean up sweeper because of the priority that grassy glide along with grassy surge supplies as well as the high damage and sword dance capabilities of Rillaboom (with life orb too!). It's also used as a bait early on to bait out fire/ice types for Azumarill
3.
Grimmsnarl @ Light Clay
Ability: Prankster
EVs: 92 HP / 252 Atk / 164 Spe
Adamant Nature
- Reflect
- Light Screen
- Taunt
- Spirit Break
This is the dual screen setter of the team. It has prankster so it can priority set the screens and taunt before opponent's Pokemon does anything. I personally don't think a dual screen is necessary for this team but can't find a good replacement for this so it's here for now I guess.
4.
Azumarill @ Sitrus Berry
Ability: Huge Power
EVs: 4 HP / 252 Atk / 252 Spe
Adamant Nature
- Belly Drum
- Play Rough
- Aqua Jet
- Knock Off
This is the physical wall breaker of the team/fire and ice counter when enemy switches in ice or fire to counter the Rillaboom
5.
Volcarona @ Heavy-Duty Boots
Ability: Flame Body
EVs: 4 Def / 252 SpA / 252 Spe
Timid Nature
IVs: 0 Atk
- Quiver Dance
- Flamethrower
- Bug Buzz
- Psychic
This is the special wall breaker of the team/grass and steel counter in case of anti Azumarill being effective or a bulky steel type.
6.
Weavile @ Heavy-Duty Boots
Ability: Pressure
EVs: 252 Atk / 4 SpD / 252 Spe
Jolly Nature
- Swords Dance
- Triple Axel
- Knock Off
- Ice Shard
This is the set up sweeper of the team. Now I know there's probably much better options out there but from the basically no weaknesses prospective this seems like a great fit (although a bit jarring that the 1 weakness is 4x to fighting). It has great coverage according to smogon and also has a priority stab move incase of out speeders so it seemed like a decent if not great fit for the sweeper of the team.
Overall I'm trying to make this into a team where there's 3 set up pokemons to take advantage of bad match up (opponent having to switch), 2 for cleanup/strong backbone defense (1 physical,1 special) and 1 suicide lead for stealth rock capabilities.
All in all, thank you for reading this and again, any suggestions are much appreciated. I am very new to Pokemon still and am wishing to improve my team through the wise community and my own thoughts so yea. Again, thank you very much for even taking the time to read this.
Triple element counter:
grass (Rillaboom) counters water
water (Azumarill) counter fire
fire (Volcorona) counters grass
they end up in a triple cycle of resisting each other's weaknesses and being able to capitalize on it and sword dance or belly drum in Azumarill's case
