New UU, new team

kamikazeking05

Well i hvent posted here sinc ei got infracted, but having learned the lessonI am back with a new team made for the UU enviroment.


Shine (Clefable) (M) @ Toxic Orb
Ability: Magic Guard
EVs: 4 HP/252 Atk/252 Spd
Adamant nature (+Atk, -SAtk)
- Meteor Mash
- Trick
- Wish
- Facade

Leadfable is love. If up against another tricker I dont use trick, I let them Toxic themselves. Other than that it is pretty standard with Wish over Softboiled so it can support it's fellow teammates.

Rozza (Roserade) (M) @ Black Sludge
Ability: Natural Cure
EVs: 252 Spd/212 SAtk/44 SDef
Timid nature (+Spd, -Atk)
- Sleep Powder
- Leaf Storm
- Hidden Power [Fire]
- Aromatherapy

I needed a cleric, and a sleeper, and something to deal with Steelix. Roserade is all three of those things plus a nasty surprise for Drapion. *drapion used Whirlwind! Roserade absorbed the spikes* TADA, now you have a free switch while they usually start spiking again.

Thimble (Torkoal) (M) @ Leftovers
Ability: White Smoke
EVs: 252 HP/6 Atk/212 Def/40 SAtk
Relaxed nature (+Def, -Spd)
- Rapid Spin
- Stealth Rock
- Stone Edge
- Lava Plume

This just defines sexy :). I needed a spinner, and thought everything else was too commmon and too easily dealt with. I usually end up passing this thing a wish when i switch it in not only healing the Sr damage, but, well that's exactly why i pass wishes. The EVs are because I was once stalled by a Ninetales, so i dropped the stupid bold one and came up with this. Lava Plume is nice for the burn, and helps it take on some of the physical sweepers ala Medicham and gallade. It also counters every arcanine except the bulky one since the standards usee either all physical or Hp Grass/ electric. And it spins :)

Chompy (Feraligatr) (M) @ Salac Berry
Ability: Torrent
EVs: 4 HP/252 Atk/252 Spd
Jolly nature (+Spd, -SAtk)
- Swords Dance
- Waterfall
- Earthquake
- Ice Punch

Feraligatr is one of my main sweepers. I used to have the substitute one here, but it turns out feraligatr is bulky enough to survive and get the Torrent + salac boost, enabling the sweep. Pretty standard

Chica (Froslass) (F) @ Choice Scarf
Ability: Snow Cloak
EVs: 4 HP/252 Spd/252 SAtk
Modest nature (+SAtk, -Atk)
- Trick
- Thunderbolt
- Ice Beam
- Shadow Ball

Nobody expects 2 trickers :). Modest because it still outspedds alot (Base 110 speed) and because i like the oomph. If you cna trick something with either a LO or Lefties to make the most of this set.

Krazy (Primeape) (M) @ Salac Berry
Ability: Vital Spirit
EVs: 252 Atk/252 Spd/4 SDef
Jolly nature (+Spd, -SAtk)
- Substitute
- Reversal
- Bulk Up
- Ice Punch

This is probably the one thing im not happy with, but it does deal with all of the regi quadruplets. Shame it didn't get suckerpunch in the transition but hey, make due with what ya got. Ice punch is for..well i dont really know. It's just that Thunderpunch wasn;t too handy. I may just drop it entirely for Luxray ro something, but for now it's in.


I can handle most stuff, but the one thing i have problems with is Cro-Tomb. At least i think thats the name of the set, with Rest/ Sleep Talk/ CM / Dark Pulse. Anyway all comments and stuff appreciated :)
 
For first I don't think that you need Rapid Spinner when you pack only one pokemon weak to it. Especially when you have Roserade to easily absorb Toxic Spikes. My suggestions:

a) I think that you're safe to replace Torkoal on another spinner, probably on Bulky Arcanine. It handles nicely Staraptor and Gallade, which may be troublesome. Set, which looks like this:

Arcanine @ Leftovers
Relaxed
Intimidate

188 HP / 216 Def / 104 SpA

- Fire Blast
- HP Ground
- Toxic
- Extremespeed

This guy survive two CB Brave Birds from Staraptor, which shows how bulky that guy is. With Wish Support it will stay in for a while.

b) Now with Arcanine and Frosslass (if you need Rapid Spinner that much) I think that the best Rapid Spinner would be right now Blastoise in a spot of Primeape.

c) If Spiritomb is that troublesome you need a phazer or... SubPunching Scrappy Kangashkan. You switch in when it Calm Mind, put up Sub and annihilate it with Focus Punch. With Kangaskan in a place of Feraligatr you would like to have more entry hazards. My ideas are Stealth Rock on Clefable (with Arcanine right now you need that SR, Clefable will use it well) and give Roserade in one of the spots Toxic Spikes. With those changes your team is bulkier, so some entry hazards would help you alot.

But if you think that you need Feraligatr alot, change that set a bit on that one:


Feraligatr @ Leftovers
Jolly Nature
Torrent
Salacy Berry

6 HP/252 Atk/252 Spe

- Swords Dance
- Waterfall
- Return / Crunch
- Substitute

That set is deadly in late game sweep. You just use Swords Dance and after that you sub up to 25% hp left and with Torrent Waterfall is stronger then Sword Danced Stone Edge from Rampardos. Waterfall + Return gives great coverage. But Crunch if solid replacement for Return.

I hope that helped you a bit. Cheers.
