So I’m not going to go through my team building process because it is long and pain staking but this is the team as of now.....
Ambipom
Jolly w/ life orb
252atk/252spd/4hp
-fake out
-double hit
-taunt
-u-turn
This is my usual lead, i prefer it to all other fake out lead because of STAB fake out with technician hits at 90 base power, coming of a base 100 attack stat with LO is nothing to scoff at, this is my first and my more reliable priority user.
Heatran
Modest w/ choice scarf
252SpA/252spd/4hp
- Fire blast
- Earth Power
- HP grass
- Dragon Pulse
This adorable lil’ bastard is my revenge killer. He also can switch into hits, checks mixtar, volcarona and so on. I use modest cos it hits like a truck to make up for poor coverage. I use HP grass for quagsires, swamperts, and gastros that love to switch into Tran. I kinda like it for hitting polities on the switch as for some reason ppl thinks it’s a good check yet it gets 3 hit KO’d easily.
Ferrothorn
Sassy w/ Leftovers
252SpD/188Hp/68Def
0 Spd IV’s
-Leech seed
-Stealth Rock
-Gyro Ball
- Curse
Aaah, the infamous ferrothorn love it or hate it, it’s a consistently good poke. I use the curse set because if i send it on a politoed etc, force the switch and get a curse up. It becomes a pain to take out, curse also adds attack and minus’ speed making gyro ball as powerful as possible. I have 188 HP investment for max lefties and i use him for a special wall and in dire cases a pseudo special wall.
Rotom Wash form
Timid w/ Lefties
252Spdef/252Spd/4Def
- Hydro pump
- Volt switch
- Pain split
-HP Fire
Everyone’s favourite washing machine.... Rotom!! This guy patched my x2 ground weakness, takes fire, water and ice moves like a champ, overall fits my team perfectly. I use a weird mishmash of rotom sets, i needed PS for recovery, it amazes me how many times i can predict the ferro switch and hit it for up to 60% dmg. And i like the switching thing i get with ape rotom and Ambipom, it helps me scout counters and movesets with ease. Hydro pump ‘is there for the obligatory STAB. This guy checks Dory with ease, checks volcarona’s with hp ground (that heatran can’t) and is just a great poke.
Cofagrigus
Bold w/ lefties
252Def/188Hp/68/Spdef
-Shadow Ball
-Will O wisp
-Calm mind
-Protect
I love this Guy so much!! I have no idea why he isn’t used as much, maybe his Hp is disappointing, but this set fits him perfectly.I've swept in tourney finals with this guy. After 1 CM both his defences are over 400. He is my physical wall and does it very well. I use 188HP for max lefties, max Def is self explanatory, and a bit of SpDef always helps. He works as a spin blocker, a perfect scizor, azumaril and anything that needs it ability to function. I’ve contemplated switching protect for HP fighting but i use ape to eliminate Bliss, Lax etc so its unnecessary, i use protect for extra lefties gain which is needed with his lower hp and helps for scouting as long as I’m not predictable. Id recommends this guy to anyone, with only two weaknesses (and two immunities) this guy does not disappoint.
Inferape
Jolly w/ Choice band
- U turn
- flare blitz
- Mach punch
- close combat
Last but in no way least, CB ape! This guy ain’t playing no games, I’ve OHKO’d hippowdons with a blaze range flare blitz. This guy is fantastic at breaking wallers and stallers. This guy counters Doryuuzu, with a mach punch doing around 80% which after SR and a fake out KO’s with ease. Not much to say about this guy other than he’s a beast. But this is the one slot that I’m not sure about this guy does good but he adds a x2 ground weakness and a x2 water weakness.
With this team i strode for perfect synergy and a check and a counter for common OU threats. And Ape doesn’t help, i wanted a fighting type for bliss and friends, I’ve tried nasty plot Lucario and cobalion but to no great success, if anyone is interested this team is currently at 700ish at wifi and like 1200ish at OU, i don’t play that much and i have no idea what my peak is but this is my main team, and my favourite team for using. Please give constructive criticism and suggestions to how i can improve this team, also...
Tell your friends; tell your neighbours, TELL YOUR GOLDFISH, but most of all I hope you enjoyed.
