Hello. This is a team I made based around choice band Pangoro. It has 3 choiced mons and three slow volturners.
Ricardo (Pangoro) @ Choice Band
Ability: Scrappy
EVs: 4 HP / 252 Atk / 252 Spe
Adamant Nature
- Superpower
- Knock Off
- Gunk Shot
- Ice Punch
The team is based around this pokemon. He is a very strong hitter and with choice band he is even stronger. Superpower and knock off are two very strong stab moves. Knock off also has the power to take out pokemons leftovers and seriously weaken them. Gunk shot and ice punch give great coverage against fairies and pokemon like landorus-T that would otherwise wall Pangoro. Pangoro can usually get a kill whenever it comes in. With a max attack investment and adamant nature it can K.O defensive pokemon like sabeleye with superpower. It can outspeed pokemon like defensive rotom wash and deal heavy damage.
Episode (Rotom-Wash) @ Leftovers
Ability: Levitate
EVs: 248 HP / 252 Def / 8 Spe
Bold Nature
IVs: 0 Atk
- Volt Switch
- Hydro Pump
- Will-O-Wisp
- Pain Split
Defensive Rotom wash provides good volt turn support with landorus-T allowing Pangoro to come in and get off a hit more easily. Rotom also deals with threats like talonflame and can use its will-o-wisp to weaken many offensive threats that would otherwise beat the team like Azumarill. Hydro pump is used as a strong STAB move. Pain split allows rotom to increase its longevity while weakening opposing pokemon.
Dramaturgy (Landorus-Therian) @ Rocky Helmet
Ability: Intimidate
EVs: 248 HP / 244 Def / 8 SpD / 8 Spe
Impish Nature
- Earthquake
- Stealth Rock
- U-turn
- Stone Edge
Landorus adds the slow volturn core with rotom. Landorus can wall many offensive threats and with rocky helmet it can punish pokemon for using moves like u-turn. Landorus is my stealth rocker. It has earthquake for powerful stab and stone edge for flying and fire pokemon. It's the standard set so most people know what this does.
Rem (Latios) @ Choice Specs
Ability: Levitate
EVs: 4 Def / 252 SpA / 252 Spe
Timid Nature
IVs: 0 Atk
- Draco Meteor
- Psyshock
- Surf
- Defog
Latios is the hard hitting special attacker of the team. Latios appreciates the slow volturn core and if the opponent has no fairies then it can get off a specs draco and seriously damage the opposing pokemon. I'm running specs over the usual life orb set to give Latios more damage output. Latios also helps counter keldeo which is a big threat to my team. It has draco and psyshock for strong stab that can deal with most pokemon. Surf is to take care of pokemon latios wouldn't usually be able to like Heatran. Latios also has defog but as it is choiced that option is rarely chosen.
Furuta (Excadrill) @ Choice Scarf
Ability: Mold Breaker
EVs: 252 Atk / 4 SpD / 252 Spe
Jolly Nature
- Earthquake
- Iron Head
- Rock Slide
- Rapid Spin
Standard Scarf excadrill is the speed of the team. He's the fastest pokemon on the team and can out speed opposing threats and K.O them. Thanks to mold breaker there are very little pokemon immune to it's earthquake which gives it very good sweeping capabilities allowing excadrill to act as the late game sweeper. It has rapid spin to get rid of hazards and along with latios gives me two choiced pokemon that can get rid of hazards.
Guillotine Cutter (Scizor) @ Scizorite
Ability: Light Metal
EVs: 248 HP / 44 Atk / 16 Def / 200 SpD
Impish Nature
- Swords Dance
- Roost
- Bullet Punch
- U-turn
Defensive mega scizor acts as the final slow volturner of the team. Scizor is a strong pivot and the main sweeper of the team. Scizor is my mega. Scizor can take hits and either u-turn out or swords dance up and seep. It's bulk along with roost gives it longevity and makes it a good switch in against pokemon it resists. Bullet punch along with technician gives scizor hard hitting priority STAB making it a good revenge killer on top of everything else.
Altogether the team consists of switching and trying to bring in Pangoro, latios and excadrill unharmed so they can K.O a pokemon. The team has some problems and is very susceptible to latios, serperior and keldo. I'm sure there are a lot of improvements I could make and I would love to hear some suggestions.
