Hey Smogon community,
Just wondering about the team below, thoughts for improvement and opinions etc. It's been playing pretty well on PO, but it can be inconsistent at times.
Deoxys-D @ Leftovers
Trait: Pressure
EVs: 252 HP / 56 Def / 200 SDef
Calm Nature (+SDef, -Atk)
- Stealth Rock
- Spikes
- Seismic Toss
- Thunder Wave
Hazard setter, sweeper crippler and tbolt absorber. If i get rocks and 3 spikes up, pretty much guaranteed the win.
Heracross (M) @ Choice Scarf
Trait: Guts
EVs: 4 HP / 252 Atk / 252 Spd
Adamant Nature (+Atk, -SAtk)
- Close Combat
- Megahorn
- Stone Edge
- Knock Off
Scarf revenge killer, standard.
Mandibuzz (F) @ Leftovers
Trait: Overcoat
EVs: 252 HP / 252 SDef / 4 Spd
Careful Nature (+SDef, -SAtk)
- Whirlwind
- Roost
- Brave Bird
- Toxic
Special wall, pretty much the core of the team. Can't do without her.
Weavile (M) @ Life Orb
Trait: Pressure
EVs: 252 Atk / 4 SDef / 252 Spd
Jolly Nature (+Spd, -SAtk)
- Pursuit
- Low Kick
- Ice Shard
- Ice Punch
Ghost trapper and Flygon killer, Ice shard OHKOs.
Blastoise (M) @ Leftovers
Trait: Torrent
EVs: 252 HP / 252 Def / 4 SDef
Bold Nature (+Def, -Atk)
- Scald
- Foresight
- Rapid Spin
- Dragon Tail
Physical wall, spinner and phaser. Second core of the team. Also great counter to Darmanitan. Foresight is not required but has saved my life a few times.
Mismagius (F) @ Life Orb
Trait: Levitate
EVs: 4 HP / 252 SAtk / 252 Spd
Hardy Nature
- Nasty Plot
- Shadow Ball
- Thunderbolt
- Hidden Power [Fire]
Really versatile set. i have found uses for every move on this set, works as a spinblocker and general kickass poke. HP fire is also THE counter to escavalier.
Like i said the team is functioning pretty well, just wondering if you guys have improvements. Nothing too crazy here but they all have their jobs and do them pretty well. Let me know what you think :)
Cheers!!
