Pokemon X/Y Balanced Team RTM

[African Space Jesus]

*QUESTION* How do you put pokemon sprites in your post? I've tried everything.

Red Lobster (Crawdaunt) @ Leftovers
Ability: Adaptability
EVs: 252 Spd / 252 Atk / 4 HP
Adamant Nature
- Aqua Jet
- Crabhammer
- Dragon Dance
- Knock Off

In my opinion, the most important member of the team. If he can set up a Dragon Dance, he can either sweep or faint 2-3 pokemon easily. Not to mention, he has even took down FAIRIES with +1 adaptability knock off.



Castle Crasher (Kyurem-Black) @ Choice Scarf
Ability: Teravolt
EVs: 100 Spd / 156 HP / 252 Atk
Adamant Nature
- Fusion Bolt
- Outrage
- Iron Head
- Stone Edge

The revenge killer. Faint one of my pokemon? Expect to see this scarfed giant attacking you. Problem is, he does go down pretty easily most of the time even with those EVs.



Manbearpig (Deoxys-Defense) @ Leftovers
Ability: Pressure
EVs: 252 SDef / 252 HP / 4 Def
Calm Nature
- Recover
- Seismic Toss
- Toxic
- Cosmic Power

He is the toxic-stall pokemon. I love cosmic power for the fact if I can set up and they lack roar I either cause them to ragequit or try as hard as possible for crits. I am pretty happy with this team member, but he could use some work.




Slim Shady (Salamence) @ Leftovers
Ability: Intimidate
EVs: 252 HP / 252 SAtk / 4 Spd
Modest Nature
- Draco Meteor
- Flamethrower
- Hydro Pump
- Roost

Will the real Slim Shady please stand up? Or ya know, fly up.
This guy is fantastic for killing unsuspecting Scizors/Ferrothorns with special fire type attacks.



EXCELSIOR! (Gliscor) @ Toxic Orb
Ability: Poison Heal
Shiny: Yes
EVs: 252 HP / 72 Atk / 184 Def
Impish Nature
- Stealth Rock
- Earthquake
- Knock Off
- Roost

This guy tanks hits, as long as that hit is not an ice type attack or a special attack he is fine. He is quite amazing for taking sleep inducing moves from pesky grass types. He can do some serious damage to Aegislash though if given the chance.



Dishonored (Greninja) @ Choice Specs
Ability: Protean
EVs: 252 Spd / 252 SAtk / 4 HP
Timid Nature
- Ice Beam
- Hydro Pump
- Dark Pulse
- Hidden Power [Ground]

This guy, if he is ready, can sweep an entire team. However, Blissey WALLS him making him completely useless if the team has that pokemon. But, still a fantastic team member.

Please leave suggestions and the sorts. (also first thread so I don't know TOO much)

You should run max speed on Salamence. I mean, it's got nice speed. 100 is good. I don't see why you would invest in HP. Anyways, Greninja should run life orb. I don't see what HP Ground is hitting so I'd change it to either extrasensory, u-turn, or HP Fire. Oh and you should run a defogger on your team.

 

[SilentSpook]

I would expand your descriptions before this thread is locked. Other than that, the team looks solid.

The main things I can say is Life Orb on Greninja over Specs, and Leftovers on Kyurem-B over Scarf. Also, replace Stone Edge for Substitue, as it lets you break walls like mad.

 

[Milkshook]

Choice specs isn't the best otem for Greninja. It defeats the purpose of it's amazing Protean ability.

You have no way of removing hazards which is especially imoortant when you have 2 Stealth rock weaknesses. Maybe you could put defog on Salamence instead of Hydro pump?

Your team is very weak to Mega Manectric so you might want to put Earth power on Kyurem and change it's nature to Naughty so you can revenge kill it.

Protect is generally better than Roost for Gliscor as it allows it to scout choiced pokemon and rack up poison damage from Deoxys.

You can drag the picture into the typing box from either the image website or your desktop. You can also use this option and insert the image link by clicking the icon that looks like a picture with a mountain:

Now on to the team...
A few changes, Choice Specs Greninja isn't one of the best as said^^ You don't want to be locking yourself into one move, Life Orb is honestly much better. So that you can play on switch initiative as well and avoid getting completed walled by Specially Defensive(Blissey) walls I would suggest U-turn over Hidden Power Ground? It can go for the U-turn and you bring in Crawdaunt, the wall either takes a hard Knock Off or makes a switch in which you proceed to set up a Dragon Dance on Craawdaunt. May I ask what HP Ground was doing there in the first place ?_?
For Crawdaunt you are going for the DD set, in the case you would want to change the nature to Jolly over Adamant, even with one Dragon Dance it still isn't going to be out speeding much. If you also feel like Crabhammer is becoming an issue because of the accuracy feel free to swap that over to Waterfall for the flinch instead. 100% accuracy. As for the item, Leftovers...Crawdaunt is really frail, you want to be dishing out hits with as much power as possible, not wasting time on trying to get HP back. You either want to go for Life Orb or Focus Sash(so you actually get a turn to set up).

In future times please leave more information on the role of each Pokemon so we can make suggestions to what you can change the Pokemon to if you find that your team is weak to a specific typing. Thank you ^_^

Have some actual words in your post beyond your six Pokemon and their moves. Not following this makes your post quite boring to read and rate. All Pokemon should have a good reason for being in your team anyway, so why not post that reason? If you are having trouble with this one, start by giving an explanation for each team member. Why are they there? What role do they serve? How do you get them in? Then, give an explanation of how you would open with the team and how you would go about using it. All of these things help people rate your team and allow us to offer more helpful advice.

This does not mean add one sentence saying "Standard x" or "all-around awesome" after each Pokemon. If you put thought into making the team, you can put thought into posting it. The standard description length required is three to four lines, if you need more insight look on the detail part, check out the RMT Archive.

Your thread is breaking that rule. PM me your updated descriptions and I'll unlock your thread.
