This is my first smogon team ever so please be kind. I'm kind of new to competitive battling.
Clefable
EVs:196 HP/216 Att/96 Sp Att
Nature: Adamant
Ability: Magic Guard
Item: Toxic Orb
Moveset:
-Protect
-Facade
-Fire Blast
-Softboiled
Standard toxic orb abuse Clefable. I want to keep clefable in my team but I'm not sure if I should keep her as lead. It seems like half the time I switch in claydol to rapid spin/stealth rock/KO frosslass with shadow ball. What do you guys think about Claydol as lead?
Claydol
EVs: 252 HP/144 Def/114 Sp Att
Nature: Bold
Ability: Levitate
Item: Leftovers
Moveset:
-Rapid Spin
-Stealth Rock
-Earth Power
-Shadow Ball
And here's the claydol I was talking about, pretty standard I think.
Houndoom
EVs: 4 HP/252 Spd/252 Sp Att
Nature: Timid
Ability: Flash Fire
Item: Life Orb
Moveset:
-Nasty Plot
-Flamethrower
-Dark Pulse
-Hidden Power (Electric)
And here's my special sweeper. Flamethrower and dark pulse are the obvious choices. Hidden Power is just a nasty little surprise for the water types that like to switch in. Speaking of the nasty, although nasty plot really seemed like a good idea to me in the beginning, I never get time to really use it. One idea I have would be to get a Substituter on the team but in all honesty I don't really like substitute. Any other options? (I will use a substituter if I have to.)
Toxicroak
EVs: 4 HP/252 Att/252 Spd
Nature: Jolly
Ability: Dry Skin
Item: Life Orb
Moveset:
-Swords Dance
-Sucker Punch
-Brick Break
-Stone Edge
Here's my physical sweeper. Again, same problem with swords dance. No time.
Milotic
EVs:252 HP/200 Def/56 Sp Def
Nature:Calm
Ability: Marvel Scale
Item: Leftovers
Moveset:
-Rest
-Sleep Talk
-Hidden Power (Grass)
-Surf
Nothing really to say here, she's done her job so far.
Altaria
EVs: 252 HP/200 Def/56 Spd
Nature:Calm
Ability: Natural Cure
Item: Leftovers
Moveset:
-Dragon Pulse
-Aerial Ace
-Heal Bell
-Roost
Wasn't really sure what to put in this spot. Ended up putting Altaria just because I felt like I needed a flying user and because she wasn't a bad match for Milotic. Any alternatives for Altaria would be appreciated, seems pretty useless right now in my opinion.
