i had wanted to make a team mostly consisting of my favorites just for random wifi battles, and i want to be confident that the team is good before diving into any battles.
Probopass @ Leftovers
Trait: Sturdy
EVs: 252 SDef / 252 HP / 4 SAtk
Calm Nature
- Stealth Rock
- Toxic
- Volt Switch
- Power Gem
probopass is, of course, my stealth rock user and special tank, as well as my lead most of the time. volt switch is so i can get offensive momentum and power gem is to help whittle the opponent down alongside toxic.
Hitmonlee (M) @ Wide Lens
Trait: Reckless
EVs: 252 Spd / 252 Atk / 4 HP
Jolly Nature
- Hi Jump Kick
- Stone Edge
- Sucker Punch
- Blaze Kick
now, i can imagine that you are wondering why i am putting a wide lens instead of a life orb or something on hitmonlee. well, i just don't like the chance of losing half hp from a miss.
hitmonlee is my mid-game physical attacker, alongside scolipede. hi jump kick for the stab, stone edge for hitting fire and flying types hard, sucker punch for any psychic types or revenge killing, and blaze kick can be used against a sun team for the doubled power from the sun.
Scolipede @ Life Orb
Trait: Poison Point
EVs: 252 Spd / 252 Atk / 4 HP
Jolly Nature
- Megahorn
- Aqua Tail
- Poison Jab
- Rock Slide
to be honest, i just slapped scolipede on the team because of its speed, power, and decent defense. megahorn and poison jab for the stab, aqua tail and rock slide can hit any fire counters they send in. aqua tail could also be used to hit something on a rain team hard.
Sigilyph @ Flame Orb
Trait: Magic Guard
EVs: 252 HP / 252 Spd / 4 SAtk
Timid Nature
- Cosmic Power
- Stored Power
- Roost
- Psycho Shift
this should be pretty obvious. cosmic power to boost both defenses and stored power's power, roost to heal off damage, psycho shift to pass the burn to the opponent from flame orb, stored power for its main damage source and stab.
Misdreavus @ Eviolite
Trait: Levitate
EVs: 252 SAtk / 4 HP / 252 Spd
Modest Nature
- Shadow Ball
- Calm Mind
- Hidden Power [Fighting]
- Substitute
misdreavus is there for its immunities and because i needed a good special attacker in case sigilyph somehow fell. sub+cm for setting up, shadow ball for the obvious stab, and hp fighting for perfect coverage.
Tauros (M) @ Life Orb
Trait: Sheer Force
EVs: 252 Spd / 252 Atk / 4 HP
Jolly Nature
- Body Slam
- Rock Slide
- Zen Headbutt
- Giga Impact
tauros is the late game sweeper of the team. with sheer force+life orb, every attack, bar giga impact, will get a 1.6 times boost. body slam is the stab attack, rock slide is to hit ice, fire, bug, and flying types hard, and zen headbutt to hit fighting types. giga impact is for when i know tauros is useless, and a base 225 attack with a life orb isn't exactly weak.
