Roaring in the Sand

[Vivrion]

Hi everyone :)

I've been using this team for a while and although it works quite well it has something that doesn't make it work properly, and i think that's forretress. Anyway, here it is

Forretress @ Leftovers | Sturdy
Relaxed | 252 Hp | 144 Def | 108 SpD
- Rapid Spin
- Explosion (Or Volt Switch, I dunno)
- Toxic Spikes
- Stealth Rock

Forretress. Nothing special. I used him as Lead but it can also switches in after Hippodown very well. Sometimes it simply comes to naught though.

Skarmory @ Leftovers | Sturdy
Impish | 224 Hp/ 252 Def/ 32 SpD
- Brave Bird
- Roar
- Spikes
- Roost

It's essential to wall breelom with BBird and to roar away all the boosted (BAN ME PLEASE) out there, such as scizor, the ddancers and many many more. Spiking after roaring and roosting to start all over again.

Hippodown @ Leftovers | Sand Stream
Careful | 252 HP/ 192 Def/ 64 SpD
- Roar
- Ice fang
- EQuake
- Slack Off

Recently as use Hippo as a lead, expecially against polioted and ninetales, allowing me to have the weather by my side. Ice Fang for the dragons and EQuake for everything else. The Evs in Spd allows Hippo to switch in Gengar and to take just 33% from ShadowBall.

Tyranitar @ Choice Band | Sand Stream
Adamant | 178 HP/ 252 Atk/ 80 Spe
- Fire Punch
- EarthQuake
- Crunch
- Superpower

I just love this guy. It crashes everything on his road; fire punch is udeful with Jirachi and Ferrothorn. I generally use him at the end of the match, when all the counters are gone. Simply awesome.



Stoutland @ Choice Band | Sand Rush
Adamant | 252 Atk/ 252 Spe/ 4 SpD
- Superpower
- Return
- Pursuit
- Wild Charge

With sand rush, this dog it's outspeeded only by scarfed Keldeo. Destroing everything with Return and superpower, 2HKOing skarmory with Wild charge and switching in ghost types after Forretress for killing them with pursuit, it easily wins lots of battles by his own.

Cradily @ Leftovers | StormDrain
Relaxed | 252 HP/ 252 Def/ 4 SpD
- Protect
- Recover
- Energy Ball
- HP Ice

Wonderful. Simply wonderful. Strom Drain boost her SpA while forcing all the water types to switch, since there isn't one that OHKO her with Ice Beam with the sand, that guarantees her a helpful boost in SpD. Hp Ice for grass types, such as breelom and venusaur, and the dragons.

(I'm italian, sorry if I've made any mistake in writing this)

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 descriptions aren't up to the standard. you need a minimum of three lines per pokemon. PM me your updated descriptions and I'll unlock this thread.
