While Suicune's here, I'd like a showcase of what it can do. Use whatever y'all consider the best set. Aquarius recommended Cobalion as a complement, if that makes things easier on you. My preferred style is bulky offense with ample counterplay to cheesy ladder sweepers.
Hey all, I want to branch out so I need a team first. Are you guys able to make me a coba+togekiss+ suicune? If so ty!
sorry for being kinda late on this, got busy
and lazy during the holiday period, but here's the team!
i started the team off with vincune as it is, to me, the set that is best able to tear up an opposing team if they are not well-equipped to face it, or if there is proper support. cobalion + togekiss as outlined in aquarius ghost's request, shores up the team vs zarude and provides rocks, speed on cobalion is for max speed base 105s, mainly zarude, and rocky helmet to hinder zarude heavily. for the togekiss set, i opted for a np variant over the standard defog variant as i knew i wanted to include spikes or toxic spikes later on in the build, which is counter-intuitive. additionally, i felt like such a set could take more advantage of spikes. could consider aura sphere on it over flamethrower to hit stuff like obstagoon for an ohko and rock-types such as rhyperior. ev-wise, speed evs are for max spe base 60s, rest in bulk. for the next member, decided on a spiker in roserade. originally, it was a toss up between roserade and dragalge, but decided on rose for its speed and neat utility in sleep powder which can be a huge annoyance to the opposing team if used properly. synthesis is also an option that be considered over sleep powder if you do not feel sufficiently insured vs electric types, based on user preference. i then added zygarde-10%, which functions as a nice breaker with a really neat speed tier, and the spikes support rly aids it by putting its target in range of attacks. opted for toxic over outrage to catch bulky stuff like cress on the switch-in if you ever face one, and also felt that locking in outrage with fairy-types in the tier such as togekiss and sylveon was never really going to be the option most of the time. lastly, added a scarf ditto on the team to shore up potential weaknesses of the team, as well as allowing for reverse sweeping potential, which again, can be supported by spikes. for example, you can copy a opposing np thundurus and reverse sweep given the right conditions, and i felt like it would provide more value here than other potential scarfers.
here's an alternative team that you can also try out, built by mac3 (just posting on his behalf)
description (in his words): I decided to build around roarcune + spikes as I think CM Suicune is a bit underwhelming right now. I opted for Roserade because Suicune is prone to electric-types and synthesis allows it to sustain well to check them throughout the game. I then added Zygarde as it abuses teams weakened from spikes and roar very easily, as it's guaranteed switch-ins usually don't use hdb. After that I added Togekiss + Snorlax to strengthen my defensive backbone and give me hazard control if necessary. Finally I decided to add Palossand, as I felt the team was a bit too weak to Heracross and other fightings.
hope you enjoy the team(s)!
