metagross.png

Metagross @ Occa Berry

Adamant nature (+Atk, -SAtk)
- Earthquake
- Meteor Mash
- Bullet Punch
- Stealth Rock
---Well starting off with metagross. First i always Stealth Rock that is a must. Then depending on the situation im in i either attack or switch out. This lead does fairly well against other leads Meteor Mashing Azelf then Bullet Punching him to death, EQ for other Metagross Leads, Meteor Mash for Tyranitar. So just that telling you that Metagross could be a great lead.
Metagross vs Other Leads[/color=blue]
Azelf vs Metagross=Metagross usually wins
Swampert vs Metagross=I SR Then Switch.
Roserade vs Metagross=I know it's going to sleep me So i let it sleep me and w8 till l8ter to set up the rocks.
Jirach vs Metagross=hmm...tricky one beacuse i have to watch out for Trick But i usually SR then EQ But i have to watch out for Trick
Aerodactyl vs metagross=metagross

Threat List

Firstly, Suicune/Swampert can be dealt with without making huge changes to your team; You con't really need MM with BP on Metagross, so replace it with Explosion. Trust me, it Kills EVERTHING. Btw, that includes Kingdra, Machamp, Suicune and Swampert. That only leaves Jirachi and Empoleon.
Emp isn't much of a problem to Scizor on revenge kills, but straight off, you might want to consider Snorlax's fire punch and EQ for them.
Really, every team has a weakness, and your appears to be Mix-Mence. After one DD it is pretty much through your team, potentially OHKOing everthing appart from Snorlax, who really can't do much. Here's my advice; Explode it early on with Metagross. Otherwise, really gud ;)
 
What common Mix Mence runs DD? The only Mix Mence out there that runs DD is the Mix Dancer set, which is not common (from my experience).

The trick to beating Salamence though is getting him to use Outrage, after that Metagross and Scizor should be able to take him out, that is assuming he gets Stealth Rock up.
 
Yea I had a lot of matches with this team..But i had no problem with MixMence Just like Unholy said I just bait him to use outrage...And switch into metagross and kill him off.

Thanks for the rate guys..Any more suggestions?
 
Snorlax really wants thick fat for this team, especially with two fire and two ice weaknesses. If your worried about posion, you could always give Latias Safeguard somewhere on the move set for after it's done tricking. But that might be a bad idea.

Also, I second the notion for explosion. If Metagross is at high health he can come into the match late game and blow up on a serious threat.

Also, I don't think that you can't really bait out outrage all the time that easily, especially since most will just use Draco Meteor (then again, it still works in your favour because you don't really fear flamethrower after a -2 Sp.attack drop). Good team regardless.
 
Well...At the Bottom of the RMT I got Rid of Dragonite and replaced him with Gyrados...So that really takes care of my ice weakness. As for snorlax i'll give him thick fat..But immunity Helps alot against some Blisseys That i face With Toxic. And yes...Safe Guard on Latias is a rather Bad idea if you ask me...So yea thanks for the rates and thanks for the compliments..I faced ipl with this team and The match was pretty good and interesting untill the server on TU Disconnected and he Automatically moved on Since He was up 6-5 @_@ But back on topic...Any pokemon that i should replace?
 
Before you replaced DNite, I was going to suggest Sub + DD Kingdra in its place. It performs a similar role as a bulky DD Dragon, while resisting Bullet Punch, letting you set up on CB Scizor alot of times. He also sets up on stuff like Choice Latias locked into Surf and Choice Heatran locked into Fire Blast. This makes getting a sub off very easy, protecting you from status and Scarf'd Dragons, and allowing you to DD safely. Bring Kingdra in at the right time and it can be GG for the opponent.
 
Hey iRockUrWorld, i've examined your team closely and it's a pretty good team, in fact i really like it. However, i did notice you're having problem with some threats, so i'm here to help you =)

First of all, i want to notice how Gyarados ramparts through your team. In your Threat List you listed Latias, however she's outspeed after 1 Dragon Dance. And Life Orb Gyarados with 1 Dragon Dance is able to OHKO a full health Latias with Life Orb 60% of the team after Stealth Rock, meaning that if you lost just a tiny amount of health earlier, you're going to be swept.

Now, you have a perfect counter in your team which can hold off Gyarados really good. Suicune is the name. Suicune can shrug off Waterfall and in exchange, you can OHKO it with Hidden Power Electric. I suggest that you change Rest for Hidden Power Electric. Your Suicune becomes a bit more offensive here, so if you want to switch to an Offensive Cune, that's completely fine, however you do lose some bulkiness.

Now, there is a second threat which you might have seen coming. Lucario is a very big threat to this team since you don't have a really good counter. After a Swords Dance, Suicune with Max Defense and Max Hp loses 95% maximum from Lucario's Close Combat. That is with Life Orb. So here again, your counter that you listed on your Threat List, is almost OHKO'd. And when it lost a little bit of health, it's doomed to destroy, especially with Stealth Rocks running around.

You need an effective counter to Lucario, and since you're also having problems with Kingdra, i suggest that you use a Gyarados. Since Dragonite looks a bit like a throw in, i's duggest you switch him out for Gyarados. I suggest a RestTalk Gyarados or a BulkyGyara. Either could work, it's a matter of preference here. I would pick RestTalk Gyarados. Anyway, here are the sets:

130.png

Gyarados @ Leftovers
Ability: Intimidate
Nature: Adamant
EVs: 156 HP / 72 Atk / 96 Def / 184 Spe
Moveset:
~ Earthquake
~ Taunt/Bounce
~ Dragon Dance
~ Waterfall
Since Bulky Gyarados with Taunt screws Bronzong and Skarmory, Earthquake is used over Stone Edge, but you could use Bounce over Taunt if you think Celebi is annoying with Grass Knot. This set walls Lucario easily due to Intimidate and resistance to Fighting. And you can OHKO it with Earthquake.

130.png

Gyarados @ Leftovers
Ability: Intimidate
Nature: Impish
Evs: 252 HP / 252 Def
Moveset:
~ Rest
~ Sleep Talk
~ Roar/Dragon Dance
~ Waterfall
Okay so this one is more of a wall than a sweeper. This is also a very good Status Absorber and a good check to Breloom aswell. Kingdra loses his +1 because of Intimidate, and with the bulkiness, this can easily Roar Kingdra. If you're low on health, Rest of and then use Sleep Talk. Also note here, Lead Jirachi without Thunderbolt and Thunderpunch is walled by Gyarados very easy. This also Walls Machamp so i think i covered some threats for you.

I'm suprised that your team isn't really vulnerable to Salamence, so thats a big plus here!+

I hoped i helped, nice team =)
 
You said that your dragonite doesn't come out very much which in itself is the problem. The thing I've noticed about dragonite is that it needs at least a little help in getting out. Your team generally lacks an efficient way to get dragonite out. My suggestion is that you either take dragonite out of your team or place something in that can help dragonite get out and do what it does best. It really sucks if your incappable of getting a pokemon out to battle. Fighting a 5-6 battle in the begining really sucks.
 
Hmmm...this team looks solid for the most part, but I can see an Offensive Gyarados with Ice Fang giving you trouble. You may wish to use HP Electric on Suicune, as Scizor already covers Salamence.

Other than that, you need a plan to deal with stall. As Chileno brought up, Gyarados is generally fairly good at this, as even Skarmory and Forretress have a bit of trouble dealing with him. I would recommend putting him over Latias.

Good luck with your team. I hope I helped.
 
When facing a Jirachi lead, don;t start out with SR. A kill is better than laying down rocks, which you can always do later. Use EQ on the first turn, Then when you get the scarf equipped, outspeed and EQ again for the kill (not sure if ir OHKOs, definetly 2HKO though) Also, I've found that putting the last EV on Sicune from SpA to Speed really helps, letting you outrun the same base group that don't invest in speed.
 
wow thanks for the rates guys hehe...yea i forgot to mention that i already replaced dragonite with gyrados a while ago. But yea Thanks for the rates and i really thanks you all...But i could use more rates xP. Possible teammate changes? What do you guys think..Since this team is in it's prime i have no idea who should i change.

~Btw im thinking about putting choice scarf on latias xP what do you guys think?
 
I love your team, and Im so glad that your using TEH ORIGINAL DRAGON instead of that poser Salamence. Also, snorlax is a sexy beast, and Blissey is a fat whore. Just a quick thing, for your problem with other Suicunes, couldnt Latias just Trick them into a Calm Mind? Good luck :)

EDIT: You replaced Dragonite with Gyara? How could you? o.O
 
hehe yea i replaced gyrados with dragonite but i still replace dragonite here and there for the lulz...But yea thanks for all the rates ^^. Anything else xP?
 
I see a little gyarados weakness if it obtains a DD (which can be done vs scizor or latias. To lessen this, I suggest running a choice band snorlax and utilising the moves: selfdestruct, return/body slam, fire punch, and crunch on snorlax, so it can kill gyarados, preferrably over earthquake. Running an EV spread of maximum Attack and Sp. def with the 4 remaining in hp will suffice. Selfdestruct can also induce massive damge to pretty much anything, even foretress and skarmory if need be and allows you to OHKO gyarados in emergencies. This snorlax provides a more immediate threat, which is often nice as you may not get the chance to curse.

Otherwise, not a bad team, I wish you luck with it.
 
Eh...well i worked my way around DD gyrados and yes it does kinda rape my team But...I put HP:electric on suicune to handle that...Thanks alot guys for all the help xP. Sadly this team is going into retirement and im starting a new team :(. Thanks alot.

~You rock.
