RM Stall T

[Metallic]

With the opening of the Smogon Shoddy Server, I decided to make a new team. A stall team sounded interesting, and this is what I came up with. IIRC, this team has a 5-1 record.

The team at a glance:

Drapion@ Lum Berry
Impish
Battle Armor
252 HP, 112 Def, 144 Spe
Taunt
Toxic Spikes
Pursuit/Crunch
Brick Break

My anti-lead, Toxic Spiker, and TS remover. 144 Speed EV's outspeeds max speed Adamant Gyarados. This has been working very well.

Hippowdon@ Leftovers
Impish
252 HP, 252 Def, 6 Atk
EQ
Ice Fang
SR
Slack Off

Sets up SR and Sandstream, and also walls most physical threats with ease.

Forretress@ Macho Brace
Relaxed
252 HP, 162 Atk, 96 Def
Spikes
Rapid Spin
Gyro Ball
Explosion

Spinner and spiker. Macho Brace powers up its Gyro Ball.

Jirachi@ Leftovers
Impish
240 HP, 56 Atk, 76 Def, 136 Spe
Wish
U-turn
Zen Headbutt
Light Screen

Integral to my team. Provides Wish support and helps my team take special attacks. Zen Headbutt, with its 60% flinch rate, is incredibly fun to use, often doing sizable damage whie flinching and letting Toxic take its toll.

Moltres@ Leftovers
Bold
248 HP, 148 Def, 112 Speed
Flamethrower
Roost
Substitute
Toxic

I <3 StallTres. This thing wall the shit out of a lot of things.

Garchomp@ Yache Berry
Jolly
252 Atk, 252 Spe, 6 HP
SD
EQ
Outrage
Fire Fang

YacheChomp. I'm sure you're all familiar with it. This is my cleanup Poke (though, in half the battles that I used this team in, I never had to send it out).

3. 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're 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.

Please read the rules before posting a RMT thread, otherwise you will end up breaking one of those given; like the one above you right now.
