What is happening buddies?! I'm here to get my brand new team rated, hoping to get some pretty nice advices!
The whole team is based on one of my favorite Pokes ever, who finally got a well deserved mega-evolution: Mega-Pidgeot. His moves' "unfailability", powerful and confusing stab and decent speed make him a wonderful late-game sweeper. His frailness needs a lot of support and help in order to let him win as a true Super Sayan should.
Mega-Pidgeot @ Pidgeotite
Ability: No Guard
EVs: 6 HP/ 252 SpAtk / 252 Spe
Nature: Timid (+Spe, -Atk)
-Hurricane
-Heat Wave
-Hidden Power (Ice)
-Hyper Beam
He is my man, my star, my sunshine. Pretty standard set with HP Ice to surprize Garchomp and eventually Gliscor and Hyper Beam for some extreme raw STAB power. The aim of my game is pretty much remove from the battlefield any faster enemy Pokémon and then throw him in the heart of the match to clean it up. He usually shows up pretty late during my battle because he requires protection and no Stealth Rock around, to fix this I have called the best armored bird around...
Skarmory @ Rocky Helmet
Ability: Sturdy
EVs: 252 HP/ 252 Def/ 6 Spe
Nature: Impish (+Def, -SpAtk)
-Whirlwind
-Stealth Rock
-Roost
-Brave Bird
This really brave bird provides Rocks in case I have a heavy flying-type opponent (or anyone else weak to it). I preferred Rocky Helmet paired with the Roost recovery to give some Hard Knocks lessons to any cocky physical attacker. Whirlwind is absolutely vital to me in order to block stat-uppers ASAP. This two bald birds needed someone to take electric damage and I obviously thought to
Landorus-Therian @ Assault Vest
Ability: Intimidate
EVs: 252 Atk; 6 Def; 252 Spe
Nature: Jolly (+Spe, -SpAtk)
-U-Turn
-Earthquake
-Knock-Off
-Stone Edge
I love to lead with him and scout my opponent's wills. I like assault vest a lot to fake a Scarf or something out (abusing my really high speed nature and Evs) but able to take few special hits without flinching too much. Intimidate is an ability YOU HAVE TO have in your team (imho) and I'm pretty satisfied with him because he has been my winning-condition for more than one game. My ACTUAL winnining condition #2 other than Pidgeot is....
Lucario @ Life Orb
Ability: Inner Focus
EVs: 6 HP; 252 Atk; 252 Spe
Nature: Jolly (+Spe, -SpAtk)
-Hone Claws
-Mach Punch
-Iron Tail
-Hi-Jump Kick
Pratically immune to rocks he is basically my B-plan in case the Pidgeot-thingy fails entirely. The set is pretty standard and self explanatory, I'm really digging the extra power of an Accurate Hi-Jump Kick and the steel perfection of Iron Tail on that goddamn fairies. All this steel and this wings need someone to get their back safe, and we have
Starmie @ Leftovers
Ability: Natural Cure
EVs: 252 HP/ 252 SpAtk/ 6 Spe
Timid Nature (+Spe/ -Atk)
-Rapid Spin
-Recover
-Scald
-Reflect Type/Ice Beam
I'm not 100% convinced about this starmie, but I bloody need it for Rapid Spinning the rocks away and taking eventual fire type moves coming from the opponents. I usually go for Reflect Type, which allows me to gain advantageous typing in order to recover the damage off and hopefully burn something with scald. My team is completed by:
Magnezone @ Choice Specs
Ability: Magnet Pull
EVs: 252 SpAtk/ 6 Def / 252 Spe
Timid Nature (+Spe/ - Atk)
-Hidden Power (Fire)
-Volt Switch
-Thunderbolt
-Flash Cannon
Just raw electric power pouring out of him. Takes electric damage (which I'm weak of) alongside with Landorus, gets defense-covered by the rest of my team and cripples that annoying steel type that can give troubles to my team.
That's it guys, I hope to receive some nice advices from you and know that I'm 100% opened to all kind of CONSTRUCTIVE criticism and changes. Probably I'm kinda weak to fire, but I'm posting this to be helped, so it's up to you! See ya!
