XY UU Mega-Ampharos team

[Deleted User 212624]

I tried to build a team around Mega Amphy and that's what came out.It's working quite well,but I'd like to improve it so I need your opinion :]

Empoleon @ Leftovers
Ability: Torrent
EVs: 252 HP / 4 SpA / 252 SpD
Calm Nature
- Stealth Rock
- Ice Beam Toxic
- Scald
- Roar
Empoleon works really well as a SR set upper,I really like to use roar as it's very useful against stall and set up mons.I'm running a specially defensive set with 252 hp to tank hits brialliantly.Not sure about ice beam,I'm thinking about running toxic over it but there are so many aromatherapy florges in UU that it might be useless.

Ampharos @ Ampharosite
Ability: Static
EVs: 252 SpA / 4 SpD / 252 Spe 212 HP / 252 SpA / 44 Spe
Modest Nature
- Agility Volt Switch
- Thunderbolt
- Dragon Pulse
- Focus Blast
Ampharos is a threat in UU because of its massive sp atk and I love using it as a special sweeper.Not very sure about the set to use though,right now I'm using an agility set but I'd like to know what set would you guys reccomend me to use.

Florges @ Leftovers
Ability: Flower Veil
EVs: 252 HP / 232 Def / 24 SpD
Calm Nature
- Moonblast
- Wish
- Protect
- Aromatherapy
Just a really useful support mon for the team,being able to tank hits and give wish/aromaterapy support.I like the defensive set more than the sp defensive as I've already got Empoleon as a special wall.

Victini @ Choice Band Coice Scarf
Ability: Victory Star
EVs: 252 Atk / 4 SpD / 252 Spe
Jolly Nature
- V-create
- Bolt Strike
- Zen Headbutt Trick
- U-turn
That's my wall breaker,it works nicely thanks to v create's massive power.On the other hand it's weak to knock off spam and pursuit trap,and the ability doesn't really come in handy for my team,I wish I could use it better.

Crobat @ Black Sludge
Ability: Infiltrator
EVs: 248 HP / 80 Atk / 4 SpD / 176 Spe EVs: 128 HP / 200 Atk / 4 SpD / 176 Spe
Jolly Nature
- Brave Bird
- Super Fang U-Turn
- Defog
- Roost
Crobat is a really useful defog support.Brave bird allows me to cope with Scrafty and super fang is useful against forretress.

Krookodile @ Choice Band
Ability: Intimidate
EVs: 252 Atk / 4 SpD / 252 HP 252 Spe
Adamant Nature
- Knock Off
- Pursuit
- Earthquake
- Superpower Stone Edge
Shout outs to Calloflochie for this set,it works really well as a pursuit trapper and knock off spammer and it really deals massive damage to anything.I'm thinking about running a black glasses/life orb set though,as I already have a choice banded mon.




So that's it guys :) I hope you can give me some advice,and sorry if I made any grammar mistake as english is my 2nd leanguage.

Hi there mate :]

This team is really solid so i'm not going to make any changes to the team itself since I don't think that is required. What I am going to suggest is just a few small tweaks to make your team that much better. Firstly, I think the Mega Ampharos set you're running is less than optimal and I'd go for a more bulky attacker build (the set for this you can find below). 44 Speed lets you outpace base 50s such as Swampert and nail it for a 2HKO with Dragon Pulse.

Mega Ampharos Set

Ampharos @ Ampharosite
Ability: Static
EVs: 212 HP / 252 SpA / 44 Spe
Modest Nature
IVs: null Atk
- Volt Switch
- Thunderbolt
- Dragon Pulse
- Focus Blast

The second suggestion would be changing your Victini to Choice Scarf and running Trick over Zen Headbutt, this gives you a fast revenge killer that your team currently lacks! Third suggestion would be to change your Crobat to a more offensive build with an EV spread of 128 HP / 200 Atk / 4 SpD / 176 Spe and running U-turn over Super Fang. The speed lets you outpace base 120s such as Alakazam and the rest of the EVs maximise the Attacking power and bulk that Crobat has. And finally, Krookodile (the team with Krook on it was actually made by me so you can thank me for that set ;o ) but I would run 252 Speed EVs on it and Stone Edge over Superpower. Oh, I almost forget, on Empoleon if it isn't your defogger, i'd recommend putting Toxic over Ice Beam as it's generally a better option since Ice Beam is going to be hitting Grass-types for pitiful damage anyway.

Hope this helped and good luck with your team! :]
