Hello everyone ! This is the first team I create in this new gen. Thus I would like to have some advices or tips from you guys !
The Team
Alola Akbar (Golem-Alola) (M) @ Mental Herb
Ability: Sturdy
EVs: 252 HP / 252 Atk / 4 SpD
Adamant Nature
- Explosion
- Earthquake
- Stealth Rock
- Wild Charge
I use a suicide lead since DP and the alolan Golem is by far my favorite 7G (appearance, typing, beard and the jokes possibility with the name). Sturdy is an amazing ability which allows me tu use a mental herb if the opponent uses taunt. Earthquake and Wild Charge deal a very decent amount of damage and explosion has a chance to take down life orb mamoswine :
252 Atk Golem-Alola Explosion vs. 0 HP / 0 Def Mamoswine: 310-365 (85.8 - 101.1%) -- 12.5% chance to OHKO
Komala @ Leftovers
Ability: Comatose
EVs: 248 HP / 48 Atk / 212 SpD
Careful Nature
- Earthquake
- U-turn
- Rapid Spin
- Play Rough/wish
Aw so cute !
Cutesness aside, this pokemon helps a lot : comatose + wish make it a solid special wall, it can spin and U-turn allows him to be a good pivot. 115 base Attack is great. It can 2HKO support Marowak which can bloq my spin. Very cool pokemon.
Gyarados (M) @ Leftovers
Ability: Intimidate
EVs: 88 HP / 220 Atk / 4 Def / 196 Spe
Jolly Nature
- Earthquake
- Dragon Dance
- Waterfall
- Substitute
My all time favorite pokemon. The EV plus the natural bulk allow me to use substitute and DD effectively. For example it completely walls Buzzwole and it deals with a lot of pokemon, besides tanky grass types.
Hug me pls (Muk-Alola) @ Assault Vest
Ability: Poison Touch
EVs: 252 HP / 212 Atk / 44 SpD
Adamant Nature
- Shadow Sneak
- Poison Jab
- Knock Off
- Pursuit
Not the most beatifull pokemon, but works really good with Gyarados. This one deals with the annoying grass pokemon while the other covers the ground weakness. Its amazing typing gives him only one weakness, Knock off + pursuit are very annoying Tools to deal with and poison jab scares most fairy types which are very common in showdown, at least when i log.

Alakazam-Mega (M) @ Alakazite
Ability: Trace
EVs: 204 SpA / 52 SpD / 252 Spe
Timid Nature
IVs: 0 Atk
- Energy Ball
- Focus Blast
- Psychic
- Shadow Ball/Dazling gleam
My spA powerhouse. I use this IV spread to get a speed boost with Trace, once it kills an Ultra-beast (thx for the tip pokeaimmd). The moves are here to cover what his teammates can't hit. Not much to say.
Krookodile (M) @ Choice Scarf
Ability: Moxie
EVs: 252 Atk / 4 SpD / 252 Spe
Jolly Nature
- Crunch
- Earthquake
- Stone Edge
- Fire Fang
The late game Sweeper. Only here to spam earthquake, get Attack bonus via moxie and win the game. Can sometimes counter Tapu Koko when it tries to take my Gyarados down with an electrik move, but its so obvious it only occured once.
Anyway this is the team I run on Showdown, it is also really easy to breed, that's why it's the first team i wanted to build in Pokémon Sun.
Thanks for reading it guys, I'm looking for some feedback ;)
