LETS FUCKING NOOOOOOOOOOOO
I have always found metagross an awesome pokemon so i decided to build a team balanced around it.
Metagross @ Metagrossite
Ability: Clear Body
EVs: 172 HP / 76 Atk / 4 Def / 4 SpD / 252 Spe
Jolly Nature
- Meteor Mash
- Zen Headbutt
- Protect
- Ice Punch
Mega Metagross was the pokemon i wanted to build around, I wanted to have it have a high damage output whilst still having a lot of bulk. meteor mash and zen headbutt are the STAB moves whilst ice punch is great coverage in my opinion. I EV'ed Metagross to OHKO non-bulk 4x weak pokemon like Landorus, Mega salamence, Mega garchomp and dragonite whilst still having a great damage output.
- 76 Atk Tough Claws Mega Metagross Ice Punch vs. 0 HP / 0 Def Mega Salamence: 336-396 (101.5 - 119.6%) -- guaranteed OHKO
- 76 Atk Tough Claws Mega Metagross Ice Punch vs. 0 HP / 0 Def Landorus: 460-544 (144.2 - 170.5%) -- guaranteed OHKO
Landorus-Therian @ Choice Scarf
Ability: Intimidate
EVs: 52 HP / 220 Atk / 52 Def / 4 SpD / 180 Spe
Adamant Nature
- Earthquake
- Rock Slide
- Superpower
- U-turn
I needed something to counter MegaCross' weakness fire and I really wanted a rock type attack against the common charizard y and talonflame. This guy had this all plus the ability to spread intimidate. I first ran knock off for a long time but I didn't really use it and u-turn gives a lot more momentum so i chose this. I took the spread from Yan Sim.
- Outruns Timid Mega Gengar and Jolly Aerodactyl by 1 point
- Survives Hidden Power Ice from 84 SpA neutral Thundurus 100% of the time
- Survives Jolly Mega Kangaskhan Double-Edge 56.2% of the time
- Survives Modest non-boosted Hydreigon Draco Meteor 100% of the time
- Survives Sucker Punch from +1 Life Orb Adamant Bisharp 87.5% of the time
- Survives Ice Shard from -1 Life Orb Adamant Mamoswine 93.7% of the time
- OHKOs 4 HP / 0 Def Terrakion with spread Earthquake 81.3% of the time
Ferrothorn @ Rocky Helmet
Ability: Iron Barbs
EVs: 248 HP / 72 Atk / 184 Def / 4 SpD
Relaxed Nature
IVs: 0 Spe
- Power Whip
- Gyro Ball
- Leech Seed
- Protect
Now I needed something which could check mega kangaskhan, I had the choice between garchomp and ferrothorn, I already had a 4x weak ice pokemon and i needed something to check bulky waters. Ferrothorn can 2HKO suicune, milotic and rotom wash which are seen as the bulkiest waters.
Conkeldurr @ Assault Vest
Ability: Iron Fist
EVs: 212 HP / 84 Atk / 124 Def / 88 SpD
Adamant Nature
IVs: 15 Spe
- Drain Punch
- Mach Punch
- Ice Punch
- Knock Off
This conkeldurr's job is to put out a lot of damage and just criple a lot of pokemons. I chose for Iron fist because most people are scared to burn a conkeldurr because of guts. the 15 speed evs let conkeldurr underspeed quiet 0 iv aegislash and ohko-ing it in blade forme.
Hydreigon @ Choice Specs
Ability: Levitate
EVs: 84 HP / 12 Def / 236 SpA / 4 SpD / 172 Spe
Modest Nature
IVs: 0 Atk
- Draco Meteor
- Dark Pulse
- Fire Blast
- Earth Power
This hydreigon hits like a truck getting the OHKO on a lot of pokemons. Draco Meteor even KO's when hydreigon is at -2 or sometimes even at -4. He is also my check to ghost and psychic types.
Suicune @ Sitrus Berry
Ability: Pressure
EVs: 252 HP / 20 Def / 100 SpA / 116 SpD / 20 Spe
Calm Nature
IVs: 0 Atk
- Scald
- Tailwind
- Snarl
- Protect
I have suicune to check the fire types some more and to reduce special pokemon their attacking potential with Snarl. He's also a special attacker of which I don't have a lot. I'm still doubting about this pokemon as I usually don't use it because Landorus already wins against fire types.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------I'm thinking about maybe adding tyranitar for suicune to control weather and have some more answers to charizard. I'm still searching for a pokemon which can control speed and/or set weather and has good typing synergy with the rest of my team.
