Got intertested in Pokemon again, so why not make another team? Trying to catch up with the current metagame, though.
Team at a glance...
Gengar @ Life Orb
Ability: Levitate
EVs: 4 HP/ 252 SpAtk/ 252 Speed
Nature: Timid
- Hypnosis
- Shadow Ball
- Thunderbolt
- Focus Blast
This used to be a Sash Destiny Bond 'Gar, but it didn't work so well. (mainly Tyranitar) This is pretty standard, but I'm considering Energy Ball over Focus Blast for Swampert since that's what my last 'Gar ran. I can usually get 1 kill with him or get one of their tanks/walls to sleep if I predict it right.
Dugtrio @ Choice Band
Ability: Arena Trap
EVs: 252 Atk, 24 SpDef, 232 Speed
Nature: Adamant
- Earthquake
- Stone Edge
- Sucker Punch
- Aerial Ace
A great revenge killer. Especially with Arena Trap. Switch it in on a Tyranitar or any other non-flying types and it can either KO or serioulsy injure it. Sucker Punch is for those Scarfed Pokemon that are faster than Dugtrio and can at least get one hit on it. Aerial Ace is mostly filler, but can take on Heracross.
Gyarados @ Leftovers
Ability: Intimidate
EVs: 212 HP/ 180 Def/ 16 Atk/ 100 Speed
Nature: Adamant
- Dragon Dance
- Taunt
- Ice Fang
- Earthquake
Bulky Tauntrados. Switch it in on walls/tanks, Taunt, and Dragon Dance for the sweep. It is getting a little predictable though so suggestions here. Not much to say here since we all know and love/hate it.
Salamence @ Choice Specs
Ability: Intimidate
EVs: 4 HP/ 252 SpAtk/ 252 Speed
Nature: Modest
- Draco Meteor
- Dragon Pulse
- Flamethrower
- Hydro Pump
Ahh, Specsmence. This can come in early in the game and Draco Meteor for a free KO, or come in late and sweep with the last 3 moves. Blissey and other walls tear this down so I have to make sure I take them out before I send this beast out. Some people still don't suspect SpecsMence and predict it's either mixed or physical.
Blissey @ Leftovers
Ability: Natural Cure
EVs: 252 HP/ 252 Def/ 4 Speed
Nature: Bold
- Softboiled
- Thunderwave
- Seismic Toss
- Ice Beam
You love it, you hate it. The most common special wall in the game is working really well for me. Not much to say since you all have had experienced with this little pink ball of goodness.
Forrestress @ Leftovers
Ability: Sturdy
EVs: 252 HP/ 184 Atk/ 72 Def
Nature: Relaxed
- Explosion
- Gyro Ball
- Stealth Rock
- Rapid Spin
A new addition to my team and it's working really well as a physical wall. Mixpert used to be here but was raped by physical sweepers. Forry also gave me Rapid Spinner, something I didn't have in my last team. Relaxed powers up Gyro Ball which cripples sweepers. Explosion is when I'm done with everything and gets a free KO.
That's my team. Suggestions are needed. Sorry if the descriptions aren't long enough.
