At a glance........ Team Brightdarkness
I have had alot of sucess with this team but I need some help to make this team better. :D
Hariyama @ Toxic Orb
Nature: Adamant
Ability: Guts
[164 sp.def. / 252 att. / 94 spd
~Fake Out
~Colse Combat
~Ice Punch
~Payback
Hariyama is an amazing lead, he had the ability to stop sleeper leads such as roserade and smeargle in the tracks. 94 speed ev's outspeed most tyranitars the dont heavily invest in speed ev's.
How I deal common leads:
Azelf: Fake out + Payback (ev's save me from phychic's OHKO)
Swampert: fakeout + Close Combat x2 (toxic orb boost) or Cloce Combat x2 ( chance to get 2 hit OK)
Machamp: Fake Out + Close Combat (im faster)
Aerodactyl: Fake Out + Ice Punch
Metagross: I usually Fake Out + Close Combat Then i switch to Forretress and take the Explosion
Heatran: Close Combat
Infernape: I switch to Gastrodon
Tyranitar: Close Combat
Dragonite: Ice Punch ( I can take a Draco Meteor)
Roserade: Fake Out + Ice Punch
Smeargle: Fake Out + Close Combat
Jirachi: I usually switch to Gastrodon
Umbreon @ Leftovers
Nature: Careful
Ability: Synchronize
[230 hp. / 60 att. / 220 sp.def.] (Could change because i want more power for Pursuit)
~Heal Bell
~Pursuit
~Taunt
~Wish
I love this Umbeon setup it has saved me from alot of tough situations. Heal Bell makes sure my team stays healthy as well as wish. Pursuit although not as powerful as Tyranitars, it sitll weakens ghosts and phychics that are scarfed and are forced to switch. Taunt is there for pokemon that try to setup on Umbreon.
Crobat @ Muscle Band/Leftovers ( Not sure which item i want)
Nature: Jolly
Ability: Inner Focus
[106 hp. / 152 att. / 252 spd.]
~Brave Bird
~Super Fang
~U-turn
~Whirlwind
Crobat usually scares away Fighting,Bug,and Grass types. The opponent usually sends out a wall so then Crobat can Super Fang for half thier Hp and then I can U-turn out into a respectable counter. Brave Bird is there for doing chunks of damage to anything, and Whirlwind is for ninjask and other setup pokes. This set has worked out for me even though it has no recovery move but since Crobat works well with Umbreon I just give Crobat wish support allowing me to have Whirlwind
Gastrodon @ Leftovers
Nature: Relaxed
Ability: Sticky Hold
[212 hp. / 252 def. / 46 sp.att.]
~Earthquake
~Hidden Power (Electric)
~Recover
~Toxic
This is my ToxicStaller, I know my Hidden Power is unusual but when i had ice beam i found my self getting raped by taunt,dragon dance Gyarados constantly but now with hidden power electric I can 2hko it and recover off the laughable damage done to Gastrodon. Earthquake for finishing up Metagross,Tyranitar,and Heatran that can't really touch Gastrodon. Toxic is just for stalling purposes.
Zapdos @ Life Orb
Nature: Timid
Ability: Pressure
[6 hp. / 252 sp.att. / 252 spd.]
~Thunderbolt
~Hidden Power (Ice)
~Heat Wave
~Roost
OMG!! This thing is a beast it put a chunk into everything. I recently replaced scarfed specially based Salamence with this and Zapdos just did more damage in my opinion. basically this is just for doing damage, Roost is to recover the Life Orb damage.
Forretress @ Leftovers
Nature: Relaxed
Ability: Sturdy
[252 hp. / 112 att. / 144 def.]
~Rapid Spin
~Explosion
~Earthquake
~Stealth Rock
This Pokemon is here to remove stealth rock because with out it my Crobat and Zapdos take more damage then I want them to, I can also set up my own Stealth Rock. When I believe he has finished his job he can go WTF BOOOOOOM and hopefully take another poke down with him.
Well thats my team, please give me advise on ev spreads and movesets/items and I will look into it ;) thnks!!
