Ok, hopefully someone rates my team this time:(

Shelcario

This is my new BL team I just made, enjoy:

233.png


Porygon2@Lum Berry

Trace/Modest

EVs: 240 HP/164 Def./12 Sp. Atk./92 Sp. Def.

-Ice Beam
-Discharge/T-bolt
-Magic Coat/T-Wave
-Recover

This is as you can tell or not, my BL lead, and with the ability to copy the foes' ability which at times can be beneficial, I think he does his job well.

Lickilicky@Leftovers

Own Tempo/Sassy

EVs: 224 HP/56 Atk./92 Def./136 Sp. Def.

IVs: 0 Spd.

-Curse
-Return
-Gyro Ball
-Wish

This is the cursing Lickilicky set and Return is for obvious STAB and Gyro Ball is so it can hit Gengar hard, Wish is for healing support.

Uxie@Leftovers

Relaxed/Impish

EVs: 252 HP/252 Def./4 Sp. Def.

-Stealth Rock
-U-Turn
-Yawn
-T-bolt/Psychic/Protect

My bulky wall and supporter for the team, I was thinking about putting Registeel here but I don't know.

Flygon@Choice Scarf

Naughty

EVs: 252 Atk./120 Sp. Atk./136 Spd.

-EQ
-U-Turn
-Stone Edge
-Draco Meteor

I don't know if I should make this my lead or a late game sweeper as he'll have to switch out if he chooses to use Draco Meteor first thing and that could be bad.

Raikou@Choice Specs

Timid

EVs: 6 HP/252 Sp. Atk./252 Spd.

-T-bolt
-HP Ice/Grass
-Extrasensory
-Shadow Ball

Again, this is some more force for the team.

Typhlosion@Choice Specs

Timid/Modest

EVs: 4 HP/252 Sp. Atk./252 Spd.

-Overheat
-Focus Blast
-Fire Blast/Flamethrower
-HP Ice/Grass/Electric

More force.

So that's my team, so feel free to comment and rate it.
 
YES YES A BL TEAM <333, is this for BL or OU, though?

Your team utterly lacks PHazers if any Calm Minders try to set up on you. Mismagius in particular, with the proper support to take out Raikou, can easily sweep your team. I think that Typhlosion is pretty expendable, and your team has a heavy bias towards special attacking which should be avoided.

P-2 is a rather poor lead in BL unless you're setting up TR. The analysis EVs (which is what I thik they are) is for OU to survive things like Salamence, so you'll at least want to cut down on the defenses a bit. Magic Coat is somewhat ineffective since nearly everything else packs Lum Berry and the surprise is ruined, so they'll set up on you while you're stuck there sitting like a...duck.

I'm lazy right now, so later I'll type a bigger block of text. BL rocks.
 
Thanks for the comment:) Yeah I was getting tired of making UU and OU teams so I thought why not make a BL team:) Also I just noticed that now my team looks like it was just randomly thrown together so I need a lot more help it looks like.
 
Just to let you know, I was wondering that because Gengar is banned in BL (in Lickylicky set comments).

I'm lazy now, I'll help you out more later. Looks interesting to say the least, I think it's very cool to have Lickylicky as a replacement for the now OU Curselax.
 
Ok, will be looking forward to it:) Oh and for some reason I love the fat pokemon of pokemon, Snorlax,Lanturn,Lickilicky:)
 
Ok, I'm back from my math tutor. But I hope you don't mind major edits, because I have plenty of them....

Looking over your team, that Lanturn comment reminded me that your team is very vulnerable to offensive threats, such as weather teams and the aforementioned CM Pokemon. It looks balanced, but in reality, your team suffers greatly defensively.
  • Because you pack Raikou, clean up your team slots and boot out both Typhlosion and Lickylicky and use Scarf Blaziken. Blaziken + Raikou are an excellent offensive combo that I've used to great success before, and cover a wide variety of threats and just in general do big damage.
  • While you're at it, I'd discourage using Specs Raikou; use Life Orb instead and replace Extrasensory for Thunder Wave. Or either Screen. I can think of literally nothing that Extrasensory will hurt other than Venusaur, and it's not worth it at all (also the fact that Venusaur is rare in BL...) For the Dragons (especially Altaria, whom you will see often to wall things like Shaymin and Moltres) and Torterra (the latter is a huge bitch to Raikou, believe me...), I'd definitely go with HP Ice.
  • If you still want to use Specs Raikou, then lead with Agility Blaziken @ Lum Berry. I still recommend Thunder Wave (or either Screen) > Extrasensory on Raikou so Darks don't get a free switch-in; just because it's Spec'd doesn't mean it can't offer support.
  • Since you now have a free slot and hail teams are somewhat covered, I would encourage using a Rain counter. They don't have to counter the rain itself, they just have to be able to face up to Kingdra+Azumarill+Toxicroak. While Shedinja is an excellent candidate, I won't recommend it for a BL newbie. This slot is really up to you, your team looks like it needs a bulky water anyways, perhaps Slowking is a good prospect.
  • I don't see what Flygon or P-2 are doing for your team. They look nice alone, but I don't really see what synergy they have for your team. I know that Scarf Flygons are starting to lead a bit, so you could try that and boot out P2 for a PHazer or Hazer that interrupts set-ups. Yawn Uxie alone really isn't adequate for that job.
That's all I can think of now, hope that was helpful! I'll also be watching for updates, so. ^_^;
 
Go for Magic Coat and Discharge if you lead with Porygon2.

Magic Coat can return any Hypnosis (and I think Taunt... I need to go check.) back at the user, so you could possibly cripple a lead such as Gengar or Crobat.

But yeah, you need a more reliable physical attacker. As previously mentioned, Blaziken would work well. You could dip into UU and pull something out from there.

Lastly, are you going against OU, or is there a BL metagame now? O.o
 
Dude, there is no Gengar in BL....

Umm, there always was a BL metagame. Except there are very few BL players such as myself. So yeah.
 
Thanks for the edits to my team guys and I agree that there should be more BL players as the BL tier may not have that many pokemon but they are very interesting to play with.
