This is my first RMT, so bear with any mistakes. This is a defensive team centered around the late game. A defensive core is formed by Alomomola and Vileplume, with a regigigas action as a backup special tank. Two powerhouses-Marowak and Haunter form my offense, with a Rotom-F to gain me momentum at the beginning of the match. However, it doesn’t quite work. I’ve used this team for a long time, and I’ve noticed a few problems. First, a lack of Stealth Rocks. Second, a real weakness to Set up sweepers. Third, it’s hard for me to break through other defensive teams.
Rotom-S @ Leftovers
Ability-Levitate
4 Def, 252 SpA, 252 Spd
Timid Nature
-Air Slash
-Thunder Wave
-Confuse Ray
-Pain Split
Paraflinchfusion. I <3 this thing so much. Typically my lead, he’s useful for taking out scarfed leads. Paralysis is very useful to my team, as it provides the chance for my Marowak and Regigigas to get a sub and allow Haunter to out speed scarfed ‘mons. He generally gets 1 kill, and another paralyzed, but it varies. Replaceable, but he’s so helpful.
Alomomola @ Leftovers
Ability-Regenerator
252 Hp, 252 Def, 4SpDef
Impish Nature
-Waterfall
-Toxic
-Protect
-Wish
The big Luvdisc is amazing. Forming the first half of my defensive core, this Pokemon never lets me down. I laugh when Pokes like Emboar try to Wild Charge, do 40%, get toxicked, I Protect, Wish, Protect,ect. Not really willing to replace.
Vileplume @ Leftovers
Ability-Affect Spore
252 Hp, 48 SpA, 208 SpDef
Calm Nature
-Aromatherapy
-Giga Drain
-Sludge Bomb
-Sleep Powder
This Vileplume is actually a Smogon set with reversed Defenses. Still works just fine. Works as my cleric, with aromatherapy, and forms the second half of my core with Alomomola. He helps me take out Samurott, which can run all over my team if I give him a chance. Sleep Powder is helpful for crippling a pokemon, which can become set up fodder later. If you can recommend a better special wall, with clerical abilities, he can be switched out.
Haunter@ Leftovers
Ability-Levitate
252 SpA, 4SpDef, 252 Spd
Timid Nature
-Substitute
-Disable
-Shadow Ball
-Hidden Power Fighting
This was originally a Misdreavus, but one day I tried Subdisable Haunter and never looked back. A great counter to choice users, he also function as my main special attacker. He is also helpful with his immunities. His HP is weaker then I would like though. A ghost type is always helpful though.
Marowak @ Thick Club
Ability-Battle Armor
4 Hp, 252 Atk, 252 Spd
Timid Nature
-Substitute
-Earthquake
-Stone Edge
-Thunder Punch
Marowak, the clinically depressed powerhouse. What’s that? Attack higher than Rayquaza’s? Without a Band? Instant Love. STAB EQ hurts so much. Thunder punch is to take out the water types that plague this team. Substitute eases prediction and often allows Marowak a free hit.
Regigigas @ Leftovers
Ability-Slow Start
252 Hp, 4 Atk, 252 SpDef
Careful Nature
-Thunder Wave
-Substitute
-Return
-Drain Punch
Don’t close the window after you see this plz. A backup special wall and power house, Regigigas has gotten me out of many a tight spot. He is probably the most replaceable pokemon on my team, and I’ve considered switching him for a Stealth Rocker quite a bit.
