Hi all this is my first ever hail team and i love the form of stall so naturally hail comes with it but i have been having quite a few issues with building my team i cant seem to find an answer that will help boost my team. Here it is:
K i should prolly state this. I want about 4 defensive pokes (including abomasnow) and 2 offensive pokes for revenge killing. Also Changes in Red
Ferrothorn
Leftovers
Iron Barbs
Sassy
252 hp, 252 def, 4 sdef
MOVESET:
Spikes
Stealth Rocks
Thunderwave
Gyro Ball
Changed Skarmory to ferrothorn because i need a physical wall and a special wall to replace both blissey and skarmory and who better then the most annoying wall in the game today. Sets up spikes and rocks, thunderwave to slow opponents down for sweeper and gyro ball as a filler. With about 300 def and special defense along with about 350 hp and a handful of resistances and immunities this is a pretty tough opponent.
Abomasnow
Snow Warning
Bold
Leftovers
252 hp, 124 def, 132 satt
MOVESET:
Giga Drain
Blizzard
Protect
Leech Seed
This is the only guy on the team i am not going to replace (since its a hail team) but i need to adjust his moveset. Blizzard is an obvious choice and i wanted some source of recovery so i put in giga drain. Protect was many filler but even then i cant think of what to put for his last move. I also need a good EV set cause this one was just me being defensive minded. I also don't know if there is a better item to use for abomasnow then leftovers. Still i feel like he just isnt cutting out to be what most abomasnows can be. He is losing to these weak pokes and maybes its me but i just haven't found the right moveset yet. Filled in the last move slot with Leech seed. Combine that with protect and he won't die as easily anymore. Also changed the special defense Evs to Special attack so he can pack a harder punch.
Walrein
Leftovers
Bold
Ice Body
252 hp, 100 Satt, 156 sdef
MOVESET:
Toxic
Surf
Protect
Blizzard
This is my Stallrein i was running blizzard over aqua ring but someone pointed out that the more recovery i have the better for stallrein and now he just gets raped by taunters. I still need to keep him bulky while having an attack in here. He wasn't good when he had blizzard but when i switched it out he went from bad to very bad and i cant figure out a way to bring him from very bad to atleast good. Switched Aqua Ring back to blizzard and changed substitute to Surf for some type coverage with still having some stall capabilities and changed the defensive Evs to special attack for some attack power.
Reunicles
Magic Guard
Leftovers
Calm
252 hp, 132 spa, 124 sdef
MOVESET:
Calm Mind
Recover
Psychic
Focus Blast
K i replaced Drifblim with Reunicles as a suggestion. Calm mind recover combo just to setup a sweep and pyschic focus blast to get ALOT of good coverage. The main problem is physical dark types like tyranitar, purloin, murkrow, etc. However if i run into those i can always switch into skarmory so i need not worry bout those. It has good synergy with the other ice types as it resists those pesky fighting types and is super effective against them. Still having problems with other weather teams. I can kill their weather guys but by then my guy is already KOd and then they bring out Excadrill and i get screwed need suggestions for this.
Hitmontop
Technician
Life Orb
252 hp, 252 att, 4 def
Adamant
MOVESET:
Mach Punch
Bullet Punch
Fake Out
Rapid Spin
I wanted a rapid spinner in my team and blissey just was not making the cut. I did and now i really tried to abuse his technician ability. I was thinking about a choice band but i didnt want to put a band on my rapid spinner so life orb it is. I didn't invest any Evs into speed because all of his attacks (excluding rapid spin) have a priority level 1 so i figured i wouldn't really need it. Mach Punch and Bullet punch for some damage and Fake out just to really make my opponent frustrated.
Kyurem
Life Orb
Modest
252 hp, 252 satt, 4 spe
Pressure
MOVESET:
Blizzard
Dragon Pulse
Shadow Ball
Focus Blast
My revenge killer. Switches in gets the KO and usually switches back out. He gets about 3 KOs each game and he is the only one who actually attacks for the KO the other guys either stall for it or just get lucky. He is a huge help and i would like to change him but i am willing to change him if it brings good results. I have this moveset for optimal coverage in a special guy. I ran special over physical due to blizzard but i still feal like he doesnt have the support he needs to be a good revenge killer. Changed his choice specs to Life Orb just so he can use all four moves without having to switch. Still need a way to get him some speed though. Also changed Draco Meteor to dragon pulse.
This is my team. A mess i know thats why i asked for help. Needs a lot of work and hopefully it can be successful. I haven't been able to make a decent team ever since the garchomp ban so this is the first and it really doesnt do so hot but i cant think of anything to fix it with but maybe you guys can thanks for the help in advanced.
