The team at a glance:
This team was created after one of my favorite pokemon: Ampharos got a mega evolution, and i just had to make a team with him on.
Well let's get to the team
MVP (Kecleon) @ Assault Vest
Ability: Protean
EVs: 106 HP / 252 Atk / 150 Def
Adamant Nature
- Fake Out
- Sucker Punch
- Shadow Sneak
- Power-Up Punch
After i saw this set on /r/stunkfisk i just had to try it. This kecleon might just be the most fun i have ever had using a pokemon. He's a great lead and can jump in at pretty much any time in the match. The assault vest with his beastly 120 base special defense, makes him an excellent special wall. His damage output is not bad either, and his new ability Protean is the key to this set. Send him in against a special attacker, when the fighting type(or sometimes normal type) pokemon comes out shadow sneak to become immune, and then proceed to power-up punch on the switch he'll be forced to make. It's just amazing. I Power-up punch as much as I can get away with, and then sweep with sucker punch/shadow sneak (and p-up punch occasionally). It's tons of fun.
This guy does well against anything but fairy's and physical walls.
I've been thinking about replacing fake out with rest since he absolutely hates burns (and all other status effects) and has no recovery. Miltank has heal bell so i think it could work out. I would like some feedback on this.
Amphabulous (Ampharos) (M) @ Ampharosite
Ability: Static
Shiny: Yes
EVs: 252 HP / 44 SpA / 192 SpD / 20 Spe
Modest Nature
- Volt switch
- Dragon Pulse
- Rest
- Sleep talk
Oh yes, the most fabulous pokemon to date, and even more so since mine is shiny ^_^. This is a you can see a rest-talking set. Since Ampharos dies fairly easily i decided that this set that also provided some recovery would be ideal. The idea is to dragon pulse everything to death with his amazing special attack stat, then rest and either keep sweeping with dragon pulse(from sleep talk) or get the volt switch and then eventually heal bell so he's ready to rest again. The problem is that he tends to die too quickly.
Mega Milk (Miltank) @ Leftovers
Ability: Thick Fat
EVs: 252 HP / 4 Atk / 252 SpD
Careful Nature
- Body Slam
- Iron Head
- Milk Drink
- Heal Bell
Miltank: It ain't Whitney's but it's definitely though. Milk drink is obvious, very good recovery and people seem to forget miltank has 100 base speed, so i can usually heal when the opponent thinks he can KO me. Now heal bell and body slam should also be obvious, heal bell is something alot of my team really enjoys and the same with Miltank herself. Body slam is good for damage and the paralysis is very nice aswell. Now to answer the question you're all thinking: Iron head WTF?, why not stealth rocks or thunder wave? Well I feel that body slam gives me all the paralysis i need, and Xatu usually grants me some stealth rocks(magic bounce). Now when i was using this team there was one poke i could never kill: Florges. That problem went away when i got it paralysed and just killed it with iron head. Definetly not as good on Miltank as a Jirachi with serene grace, but it does a nice job taking out fairys in general. Thoughts?
Crocodile (Suicune) @ Leftovers
Ability: Pressure
EVs: 252 HP / 252 Def / 4 SpA
Bold Nature
- Scald
- Calm Mind
- Rest
- Sleep Talk
This is the standard CroCune set (hence the nickname lol). Anyway this is the newest addition to the team and the one i'm most unsure about, Suicune replaced my Slowbro since he's now OU :(. I chose the CroCune set because it's the one i have most experience using, and i thought with Miltank's heal bell it could work quite nicely. Any thoughts on pokemon to replace him is very appreciated if you can think of some better suited ones.
FlyGuy (Flygon) @ Choice Scarf
Ability: Levitate
EVs: 252 Atk / 4 SpD / 252 Spe
Jolly Nature
- U-Turn
- Superpower
- Earthquake
- Outrage
Standard scarfed Flygon, good revenge killer, does nice damage and can u-turn out into someone else in case need be. Works, not much to say. I really like the speed scarf gives, but is anyone leaning towards band? or something else entirely? Feedback: Give it to me, I love it.
Tramp(oline) (Xatu) @ Leftovers
Ability: Magic Bounce
EVs: 252 HP / 240 SpD / 16 Spe
Careful Nature
- U-turn
- Roost
- Thunder Wave
- Night Shade
This guy. I'm using him on both this, my RU and my NU team, i love him so much. This is pretty much my alternative to a spinner. Most of the time after using fake out with Kecleon i switch into Xatu if i see any hazards coming. It works suprisingly well. It is a problem when he dies and rock get up on my side, but i doesn't happen too often. Thunder Wave is for spreading status, good to use after you bounced some rocks/spikes/whatever, since a switch happens 90% of the time. Night Shade>Psychic/Psychock mainly because i like the reliability, and i also get to run careful nature without any downside (nightshade also destroys shuckle). Roost is obvious, and U-turn works nicely with his pretty nice base 95 speed. Also shuts down subseeders/status users/some walls/sableye. Really cool poke.
So that's the team, any thoughts/feedback/suggestions/whatever is very appriciated. Feel free to copy it if you wanna try it out :D
