Hi, I hope I've done this right, it's my first post on here, so yeah...
Ok, so a friend and I have a challenge going, to design a team before June, level it up to LV100 and then we're going to have a massive battle.
The only rules are, that they have to be hatched/caught/obtained with our HG/SS ID No, otherwise we can't use them, and that there can only be one legendary pokemon in our team.
Now, at the moment, we also know parts of our teams, but we're allowed to freely interchange before the battle, provided that they don't break our rules.
The pokemon that he said he would have on his team are:
- Feraligatr
- Typhlosion
- Gengar
- Mewtwo
At the moment, I feel pretty confident with my team, but I'm pretty sure there's adjustments or mods I could make to make it more powerful.
This is the team:
Aerodactyl - Naive
Ability - Rock Head
Hold Item - Focus Sash
EV's - 255 Atk, 255 Speed
Moves - Stealth Rock, Crunch, Earthquake, Rock Slide
Aerodactyl is designed to be my first in, smash 'em up, then get murdered. My EV's give it speed, and the attack EV's give it the power to take a chunk out of other leads. By setting up Stealth Rock, and taking as much health out of my friend's lead as I can, it gives him a challenge for the next five pokemon.
Projected Stats at LV 100 (Calculated with my Rare Candy stash from Platinum [Linoones @ LV 100 are more useful than I could've imagined])
290 HP / 289 Atk / 157 Def / 148 Sp. Atk / 163 Sp. Def / 393 Speed
Lugia - Careful
Ability - Pressure
Hold Item - Leftovers
EV's - 4 HP, 252 Def, 252 Sp.Def
Moves - Toxic, Whirlwind, Ice Beam, Roost
Lugia is meant to be brutal on his pokemon. I EV'd her in defence and sp. def in order to take a few hits... well, a lot of hits. By sending her out after Aerodactyl's knocked out I can inflict poison on the first turn, force a switch on the second, and heal on the third. I hope that I can force at least two switches, I know that most of his team can get poisoned. Aerodactyl's Stealth Rocks should help with the residual damage on his team.
Projected Stats at Lv 100: 334 HP / 191 Atk / 346 Def / 171 Sp. Atk / 440 Sp. Def / 248 Speed
Tyranitar - Naughty
Ability - Sand Stream
Hold Item - (Haven't decided yet)
EV's - 255 Atk, 255 Spd
Moves - Dragon Dance, Outrage, Crunch, Earthquake
By the time Lugia is taken down, I hope to have inflicted significant damage to my friend's team. By using Tyranitar, I hope to create even more residual damage losses to his team.
When Sand Stream activates, I'll start using Dragon Dance, if it's safe to do so, and from there begin to sweep with a super fast, super strong Tyranitar. I picked Crunch for it's STAB, and Earthquake for it's raw power, not sure if Outrage will be useful, though. It locks me in, so I'm a little worried about that.
Projected Stats at Lv 100: 333 HP / 398 Atk / 234 Def / 217 Sp. Atk / 205 Sp. Def / 213 Speed
Garchomp - Naughty
Ability - Sand Veil
Hold Item - Choice Band
EV's - 255 Atk, 255 Spd
Moves - Crunch, Earthquake, Fire Fang, Outrage
Garchomp... Garchomp is going to hurt. Not just normal hurt... I'm going to call him Cupcake, for a laugh, while I slaughter his team.
I really like this set, it's got a really good STAB move in Outrage, which I've used before on my Garchomps (this is my second Garchomp, my first was on Platinum with a +Spd nature). Combining this with Earthquake should wreak havoc on any defensively weak pokes on his team.
Projected Stats at Lv 100: 326 HP / 390 Atk / 215 Def / 165 Sp. Atk / 165 Sp. Def / 286 Speed
Lucario - Mild
Ability - Inner Focus
Hold Item - Life Orb
EV's - 255 Sp. Atk, 255 Spd
Moves - Psychic, Dragon Pulse, Aura Sphere, Dark Pulse
Projected Stats at LV 100: 264 HP / 237 Atk / 152 Def / 350 Sp. Atk / 157 Sp. Def / 261 Speed
Gengar - Timid
Ability - Levitate
Hold Item - (Haven't decided)
EV's - 255 Sp. Atk, 255 Spd
Moves - Psychic, Protect, Dark Pulse, Thunderbolt
Lucario and Gengar were picked in order to be the special sweepers in my team. Lucario, primarily because of his immunity to sandstorm, and Gengar for his raw power. I am a bit worried about each of their movesets, I'm not sure if there are better pokes to be using on this team for special sweepers.
Since I can only use one legendary, and I'm using Lugia, I can't put something like Heatran in here.
At the moment, most of my team are at levels 50 -70, but I've already EV'd them, the only exclusion being Gengar, who I haven't started on yet.
RMT, anyone?
One final note... my friend doesn't use any pokemon websites or designs his team with some of the movesets on here, he's not an EV person, and doesn't worry about natures.
