My first thread on Smogon, how exciting!
In my opinion, my team's pretty good. Just made this team yesterday and got 3-1 record. there'll be explanations for each guys.
Goldzong (Bronzong) @ Lum Berry
Ability: Levitate
EVs: 252 HP/44 Atk/180 Def/32 SDef
Relaxed nature (+Def, -Spd)
- Hypnosis
- Gyro Ball
- Stealth Rock
- Reflect
---Lead/Physical Wall
it's kinda obvious that it's a common lead, but it gets the job done every time. for some reason, I'm seeing some strange leads like floatzel and 'nape these days :) OK, geting back on subject. you might think I should get it sp.defensive, but since the main idea's trying to get Starman come in and sweep, I focus on Physical sturdiness.
A littlepixie (Jirachi) @ Leftovers
Ability: Serene Grace
EVs: 252 HP/220 Def/36 Spd
Impish nature (+Def, -SAtk)
- Wish
- Zen Headbutt
- U-turn
- Body Slam
---Supporter
Ah, good ol' Paraflinch, one of the most annoying thing in the game. This set lets it to its full potential. Paraflinch for annoyance and semi-sweep, WishTurn for assistance. it's very useful, and help me out in a pinch when I need a heal.
SallydaDragon (Salamence) (M) @ Life Orb
Ability: Intimidate
EVs: 220 HP/18 Atk/196 Def/76 Spd
Jolly nature (+Spd, -SAtk)
- Roost
- Dragon Claw
- Dragon Dance
- Earthquake
---Bulky Sweeper/tank
Quite strong, he can take hits from physical sides quite a bit. He supports in physical defence to let Starman for a sweep, along with 'Zong. Also, he might decide to sweep himself instead.
SuperNerdse (Blissey) (F) @ Leftovers
Ability: Natural Cure
EVs: 100 HP/252 Def/156 SDef
Calm nature (+SDef, -Atk)
- Ice Beam
- Seismic Toss
- Softboiled
- Thunder Wave
---Sp.Wall/Support
ISN'T IT OBVIOUS that it is a Special Wall? Yeah, you know Bliss. I picked 'Beam because for the guts activation for Cross. Supports by T-Wave.
Hornycross (Heracross) (F) @ Choice Band
Ability: Guts
EVs: 6 HP/252 Atk/252 Spd
Adamant nature (+Atk, -SAtk)
- Close Combat
- Megahorn
- Pursuit
- Stone Edge
---Physical Sweep.
When the T-Wavers do their jobs, this guy can own a pokes or two. I'm thinking about replacing Pursuit w/ Sleep Talk, so he can abuse his guts and be a sleep absorber at the same time.
Starman (Starmie) @ Life Orb
Ability: Natural Cure
EVs: 160 HP/216 Spd/132 SAtk
Timid nature (+Spd, -Atk)
- Ice Beam
- Surf
- Recover
- Rapid Spin
---Spinner/Sp.Sweep.
Thinking about replacing Spinning w/ T-Bolt and changing his EVs a bit. It's fast and strong, which is an ideal situation to be in for a sweeper.
Some real noobs might say, "Hey were did u get jirachi?" this is ShoddyBattle. Please don't just say, 'it's good.'. if you're going to do that, don't even post in my thread at all. I need supportive criticizm and editing.
