My NU Team

[SCDL]

Introduction
I have decided to post my team here so the pokemon world may rate it!




Mightyena
I chose this pokemon because I wanted a pokemon that was a pure Dark type.
I also wanted a pokemon with a pretty good Attack and can make up for its Speed with Quick Feet ability.It also has decent attacks that gain STAB.


Mightyena
Ability:Quick Feet
EV's 252 Speed 252 Attack
Item:Toxic Orb
My First Physical Sweeper


Moveset
-Howl To boost my Attack stat.
-Crunch To gain STAB and to lower the enemy's Defense.
-Roar To make the enemy send out a different pokemon.
-Sucker Punch To gain STAB and to attack first.


Corsola
I chose this pokemon because I wanted a NU pokemon with decent Defenses.
It also has a great ability in Natural Cure and can learn some pretty good attacks like Recover,Refresh,and Power Gem.


Corsola
Ability:Natural Cure
Nature:Calm
EV's 252 SpD 252 HP 4SpA
Item:Leftovers
My Special Defensive Wall




Moveset
-Recover To heal more HP and faster than Leftovers.
-Bubblebeam To gain STAB and to lower the enemy's Speed.
-Power Gem To take care of Flying types and to gain STAB.
-Ancientpower To take care of Flying types also and gain STAB but the most important thing about Ancientpower is it could raise all my stats.


Glaceon
I chose this pokemon because I wanted a newer pokemon that was pure Ice.
I looked at Glaceon and I saw that it was a pokemon that was pure Ice and that has pretty good stats.Its also is one of the newer evolutions of Eevee. I'm not making a Hail team either.

Delibird
Ability:Hustle

My Second Physical Sweeper


Moveset

-Sky Attack A very strong physical attack that gains STAB.
-Headbutt A move that is somewhat strong and may cause the enemy to flinch.
-Toxic To poison the enemy so badly that they die and to piss off the enemy.


Illumise
I chose this pokemon because I wanted a bug type pokemon with a very good ability in Tinted Lens.This pokemon has a above average Speed stat and has some very interesting moves like Flatter and Moonlight.I also wanted a pokemon that could only be a girl.

I chose this pokemon because of its interesting move Tail Glow and its ability Swarm.I also wanted a pokemon that could only be a boy and since it has decent stats and a good attack and ability I decided to put in into my party.

Um....have you even tested this team?

Imma break it down simple:

Luvdisc, dies to tackle.

Corsola is outclassed by Relicanth and awful, shouldn't have two Rock moves (let alone Ancient Power)

Glaceon is lol.

Delibird: Please don't use this, same goes for Volbeat and Illumise.

Your Stealth Rock weak too.

*warning:summary:scrap. this. team. everything else is just details*
Words cannot describe my feelings about this team. You have no idea what NU is like, or else you are completely unaware of the existence of Slowking-quagsire (about the top 30 most used NU pokes. Luvdisc should be Floatzel, and rain dance ain't worth it. The turn you spend setting it up, you die. Caterpie is the one thing that fails to kill luvdisc. Hell, if luvdisc lacks charm (which yours does) even Caterpie can beat it. Also, every water type in the game can learn surf. its an HM anyways, so it even works on wifi. Water pulse is a totally inferior option, and don't say "but it confuses!" 45 extra BP is way better than 1/5 confusion rate.
Also, corsola ticks me off. Just because this is NU doesn't mean that 55/85/85 counts as decent defenses. Quagsire has decent defenses, Skunktank has good defense, Slowking/Miltank have great defense. Make it a slowking, or at least make AP some support move.
Congratulations. I've seen some crappy Glaceon sets, but yours really takes the cake. One attacking move, an attempt at walling, Hail that benefits exactly one pokemon, and icy wind. unless you invest in speed, no one will be any slower than you after one icy wind then they were before. this means you need two turns, at which point you've died to the oh-so common fighting/rock/fire moves and SR.
Delibird:For the love of god, please tell me this is a wifi team. Even if it is, Delibird still learns ice punch and aerial ace, which is a hell of a lot better than Sky Attack. Why? You're opponent knows which move you will use next turn with sky attack, and Electric/steel/rock types with the defense to survive it are incredibly common. Also, like Jewgong said, only riverside can use delibird to any effect, and even he says that it fails as a sweeper. Also, present? PRESENT? this thing either does aprox. 1/3, 1/5, or a whopping 1/18 of you opponent's health, or it heals them by 1/5. This move should never be used ingame, let alone on the competitive scene! Also, Delibird has better options than toxic for that last slot, and a better normal move than headbutt. Return TMs are given out daily in every game, and the power boost is far superior to the flinch chance unless you back it up w/para/confuse/attract.
Illumise. This set is the best so far. In what world can Illumise take a hit. at all. Flatter is actually an OK idea for survival, but if you can learn that you can learn Swagger, which will cause them to do more damage to themselves. And you can't take a hit anyway, so why do you care about the attack boost? Also, covet is not worth it. pick your own item so you know what you have. I honestly don't know how you managed to overlook the fact that you have acess to THUNDERBOLT and Shadow Ball, two of the most potent attacks in pokemon. Also, one-move sweeper? only works with cro pokemon. (restalk, booster, neutral coverage stab)
Volbeat. I have one opening question. Why in the name Arceus and Mew would you give a pokemon a -Spatk nature when its only attack move is special? why? also, Volbeat has base 47 spatk. BASE 47. with your - nature, you reach 174 spatk. 348 after a tail glow. There are pokemon in NU who can reach you +2 power without a boost, and with only a small EV investment. Again, moonlight is totally pointless. Name one unchoiced pokemon who can't kill this thing in some way or other. This also renders leftovers/protect useless. use offensive moves and an offensive item. again, a one atk sweeper? seriously?
This is the best approximation of your team using viable NU pokes:
Luvdisc--->Floatzel
Corsola--->Slowking
Glaceon--->Miltank
Delibird--->Charizard
Illumise--->Magneton(maybe.)
Volbeat--->Espeon
pokemon that are utter crap work just as badly in NU as they do in OU. anyone who reads your team is going to think that this is what the NU tier looks like. Its not. Period. Not one of these pokemon works at all in NU. (with the exception of delibird and glaceon, both of whom's roles are completely different from what you attempted.) Your other team was better than this one by far, and your insistence on Frosslass forced it into UU. Find a replacement for it and put that up to the judge, then I'll take you seriously.
Oh, and LO magmortar OHKOs your entire team, fails to be killed by a rain water pulse from luvdisc, and has billions of opportunities to switch in. Also, no SR means Charizard kicks your ass too. EQ+Fire move floors your whole team, because luvdisc has less than paper-thin defense stats. Espeon can power through you whole team with virtually any move, as can Flare Blitz/Eruption Entei(though FB hasn't been implemented yet) Miltank tanks every one of your sweepers, and easily KOs all of them with Body slam. Skunktank will kill everyone on your team without breaking a sweat, and will take almost no damage doing it, too. I could go on and on (well, oner and oner) but I have other things to do.

Bump Bump....

This thread is getting a bit out of hand. I deleted multiple posts that had no beneficial information for the user of the team in addition to posts like "words cannot describe how much this team fails". Just a word of advice for some posters in this thread: if you don't have anything good to say, don't post. If you decide to post something idiotic, risk an infraction. Also SCDL, you have bumped your thread a bit too much. I've left one of your bumps un-deleted. I'm locking this thread as I don't see anything positive coming from it, sorry.
