Spectrier @ Choice Specs
Ability: Grim Neigh
EVs: 252 SpA / 4 SpD / 252 Spe
Timid Nature
IVs: 0 Atk
- Shadow Ball
- Hex
- Will-O-Wisp
- Mud Shot

What I'm trying to build the team around. Wincon with major sweeping potential after it gets a ko and normal types are eliminated.

Rillaboom @ Choice Band
Ability: Grassy Surge
EVs: 252 Atk / 4 Def / 252 Spe
Adamant Nature
- Wood Hammer
- U-turn
- Grassy Glide
- Knock Off

Wallbreaker/pivot that aids in giving the team some recovery via grassy terrain. His slowish u-turn is a big help in getting Spectrier in safely.

Zeraora @ Heavy-Duty Boots
Ability: Volt Absorb
EVs: 252 Atk / 4 Def / 252 Spe
Jolly Nature
- Plasma Fists
- Volt Switch
- Close Combat
- Knock Off

Speed control pivot that has utility with knock off. Helpful for chip damage and for forcing switches that can be taken advantage of if predicted correctly.

Ferrothorn @ Leftovers
Ability: Iron Barbs
EVs: 252 HP / 4 Atk / 252 Def
Impish Nature
- Leech Seed
- Stealth Rock
- Knock Off
- Body Press

Tank that's meant to set up stealth rocks and knock off enemy items. Its mediocre recovery is aided by grassy terrain.

Landorus-Therian @ Choice Scarf
Ability: Intimidate
EVs: 232 Atk / 68 Def / 208 Spe
Jolly Nature
- Earthquake
- U-turn
- Stone Edge
- Defog

Another speed control pivot that's here to mainly for defog purposes as well as to force physical sweepers to switch.

Toxapex @ Black Sludge
Ability: Regenerator
EVs: 252 HP / 4 Def / 252 SpD
Calm Nature
IVs: 0 Atk
- Toxic Spikes
- Scald
- Haze
- Recover

Tank that works in conjunction with ferrothorn. The chip from toxic spikes goes a long way in helping spectrier sweep.


What advice do you have for this team? Any constructive criticism would be helpful.
 
Hi, welcome to Smogon! I am locking your RMT for the time being as the forum rules require that you provide at least three lines of descriptions for each Pokemon to explain their roles. Please read the rules carefully and look at Team Showcase to see the detail we require. PM me with updated descriptions, and I will be happy to unlock this.
