Yo what’s poppin smogon :] Greetings with my team that I had builded and it is surely my strongest one! The team is inspired by my favourite Pokemon Urshifu cuz it is really strong and maybe broken, also sounds like my favourite PokeRapper Shofu :]. As well the other Pokemon are ones that have inspired me from the anime and other media influences as I will say such. The team skyrocketed me to Top 500 on the ladder which I have never got there before so I’m very happy and I believe its my most iffective team of all time. Mashallah!

Pokemon cypher 2013 is just a badass song and it’s fire. The Pokemon references are so smart and also funny, so when I am is laddering it gets me energetic :]
Let’s get right into the team
Zameel el-Nawaz (Urshifu-Rapid-Strike) @ Life Orb
Ability: Unseen Fist
EVs: 4 HP / 252 Atk / 252 Spe
Adamant Nature
- Aqua Jet
- Dynamic Punch
- Close Combat
- Surging Strikes
I wanted to build around my favourite Pokemon of ten 8, Urshifu. His other form was banned last week so this thing is already OP. He is so strong with just his STAB attacks and a life orb to do more powerfulness ;). He also sounds like Shofu (Urshofu) which is awesome, Shofu spits some fire and is a cool rapper. Even though I don’t really listen to rap because my family looks down on it, everyone knows shofu is heat. So I have Max attack and speed investment for more killing and slaying on it.
Thunderblunder777 (Zeraora) @ Life Orb
Ability: Volt Absorb
EVs: 252 Atk / 4 SpA / 252 Spe
Hasty Nature
- Plasma Fists
- Grass Knot
- Focus Punch
- Iron Tail
The next Pokemon Zeraora, why added him? Well because he is like Thunder blunder the youtuber. Very strong and persistent. Blunder is my inspiration because he likes Pokemon so much just like me! On the playing field it also helps destroy teams and helps Urshofu sweep. Grass knot is for that annoying swampert and hippowdon stall teams. Focus punch is something I saw on Heatah fajita where CTC used it and it makes me look like a god when I predict a switch in for so much damage. Iron tale is for those annoying clefables which can do so much damage to then.
Mukhtaar al-Diab (Pikachu-Sinnoh) (M) @ Light Ball
Ability: Lightning Rod
EVs: 252 Atk / 4 SpA / 252 Spe
Hasty Nature
- Fake Out
- Volt Tackle
- Surf
- Grass Knot
My team was beginning to look pretty standard to the teams on ladder so I added my favourite Pokemon ever to make it unique. Pikachu has been there since day 1. When I lived in Baghdad and was 5 or 6 years old I would always watch the anime where ash and dawn fighted team Galatic. I had a crush on dawn so I would always pretend to be Ash and impressing her with my Pokemon battling skills. Pikachu has been a memorial part of my life so I added him. He also is pretty strong and people forget that on laddering. Light ball makes pickachu attack times 2 which is so strong honestly. Volt tackle is a strong move and surf is for hippowdon cinderance and randorosu :] (Landorus in Japanese) But honestly pikachu is amazing and so good to compliment my other Pokemon.
Dream worldpolitoad (Politoed) @ Leftovers
Ability: Water Absorb
EVs: 252 HP / 4 SpA / 252 SpD
Calm Nature
IVs: 0 Atk
- Whirlpool
- Perish Song
- Protect
- Rest
I was thinking what to add and I saw I had too many offensive Pokemon so I decided to balance it with a wall so I could make this more of a Tanky Offense oriented team. Everyone thinks this thing is offensive and goes Chansey or toxapex but then I trap it which is so good for my Pokemon. Specifically urshifu rapid. The nicknames is from a Pokemon cypher verse where they say “B**** I make it rain like a dream World Politoed”. It gives me power like I am a rain god making it rain down on my opponenets.
Sh0fu Da B3atd0wn (Shiftry) @ Heat Rock
Ability: Chlorophyll
EVs: 252 Atk / 4 SpD / 252 Spe
Adamant Nature
- Sunny Day
- Swords Dance
- Solar Blade
- Knock Off
I had to dedicate one Pokemon to shofu the beadown (Not actually shofu its his friend beatdown who is also a poke rapper). beatdown has some fancy dancing moves and is really tough of an opponent to beat. He is also black just like shiftry plus he says he’s fast like a shiftry. Honestly shiftry is really strong and no one expects it to set up its own sun and swords dance. It sweeps really good after that with its STAB. Also I saw it used on high ladder by storm zone so its just proof its good. This Pokemon helps so much with killing other Pokemon so I decided to bring them aboard to the team.
Fuaad el-Hamad (Magneton) @ Choice Scarf
Ability: Magnet Pull
EVs: 252 SpA / 4 SpD / 252 Spe
Timid Nature
IVs: 0 Atk
- Volt Switch
- Thunderbolt
- Hyper Beam
- Flash Cannon
Originally I had a Tauros with Life orb and sheer force combo but I kept losing to ferrothorns so I decided to use a magnet pull Pokemon. This is definitely better than magnezone because it has more speed which is really important for a choice scarf Pokemon. you don’t even need evolved Pokemon, look at ash he has a pickachu for so long and he always wins. Seriously this is so OP and hits hard and also traps those pesky steel types.
Thanks so much guys and please let me know how i can improve and get to top 10 on ladder. Peace out!
