I LIKE COBALION
I saw a cobalion set I liked, and decided to make a team around it! :D
Team building process:
Cobalion is countered hard by jellicent, quagmire, and slowbro, so, BRELOOM
I still have a painful weakness to chandelure, so I decided to pack my own, faster, chandelure.
Excadrills are biting me in the butt, so I decide to take a gliscor
Now I need a good lead, so I go for someone who can stealth rock like a champ, deoxys-s
Blissey is starting to look threatening, so I decide to go for a physical sweeper
THE TEAM
Deoxys-S @ Leftovers
Trait: Pressure
EVs: 252 HP / 4 Def / 252 Spd
Jolly Nature (+Spd, -SAtk)
- Stealth Rock
- Magic Coat
- Taunt
- ExtremeSpeed
An all-around great lead. SR is always useful. entry hazards are not a major threat to this team, but enemy SR can HURT Chandelure, so I wanna taunt/magiccoat that away. extremespeed incase the enemy manages to land a taunt, so i don't find myself struggling
Cobalion @ Life Orb
Trait: Justified
EVs: 4 HP / 252 SAtk / 252 Spd
Timid Nature (+Spd, -Atk)
- Calm Mind
- Focus Blast
- Flash Cannon
- Hidden Power [Ice]
God, how I love this guy. He can rip through teams that aren't prepared and is my favorite CM sweeper. he can switch in on a whole score of moves due to his resistances and sweep easily. HP Ice beats dragons and gliscor/landorus. Focus blast beats rock and opposing steel types, some of the things most likely to hurt him with Earthquake. Flash cannon beats things like archeops and most ice types
Breloom (F) @ Toxic Orb
Trait: Poison Heal
EVs: 4 HP / 252 Atk / 252 Spd
Adamant Nature (+Atk, -SAtk)
- Spore
- Substitute
- Focus Punch
- Seed Bomb
Useful as a physical sweeper. He covers bulky waters such as jellicent and quagsire that can wall cobalion. 100% accuracy sleep is fucking fantastic. seed bomb over bullet seed for reliability. Focus punch to take out things like chans/bliss. Switch in to a water type move then sweep. he CAN however, be in for some serious hurtin' if a bulky water gets a burn on scald.
Chandelure (F) @ Choice Scarf
Trait: Flash Fire
EVs: 4 HP / 252 SAtk / 252 Spd
Timid Nature (+Spd, -Atk)
- Overheat
- Shadow Ball
- Energy Ball
- Hidden Power [Ice]
He's (ironically) my chandelure counter. he absorbs fire attacks aimed at cobalion and outspeeds them for the shadow ball KO. also useful as a revenge killer. energy ball incase breloom fails at its job, and HP ice to take out dragon and ground types. although he's taken out my rock and ground, deoxys-s can usually prevent SR from getting up and gliscor can wall.
Gliscor (F) @ Toxic Orb
Trait: Poison Heal
EVs: 252 HP / 184 Def / 72 Spd
Impish Nature (+Def, -SAtk)
- Toxic
- Earthquake
- Ice Fang
- Protect
GLISCOR <3 walls with the best of them, taking out excadrills and other EQ users that pose a threat to cobalion. ice fang for the type coverage, but considering replacing it with substitue. EQ incase I get taunted but also as a fairly consistent source of damage. protect to stall toxic for a turn and give me poison healing
Krookodile (F) @ Choice Scarf
Trait: Moxie
EVs: 4 HP / 252 Atk / 252 Spd
Adamant Nature (+Atk, -SAtk)
- Stone Edge
- Crunch
- Earthquake
- Outrage
Krookodile is one of my favorite physical attackers. crunch takes out things like reuniclus and most other psychich and ghost types. outrage can rip through teams, especially with moxie. stone edge and eq give great coverage
