thinking about putting this guy on my team
Driftlim*Salac Berry
Ability: Unburden
252 HP EV's, rest in both defenses?
nature: ? ? ?
Calm Mind
Hypnosis
Subsitute
Baton Pass
I don't plan on having him lead simply because Aero and Sneasel screw him up so bad it isn't even funny. However, getting him out before Stealth Rocks is important too so I might lead (Meta walls Sneasel. . .what pokes wall Aero?). Anyways, I've been racked as to who should receive the speed and special boosts? These are the possibilities I've been thinking so far:
PorygonZ*Life Orb
Ability: Adaptability
Nature: Modest
Scheme
Tri Attack
Dark Pulse
Thunderbolt(?) - lets me hit Batiodon, Aggron and Probobass neutral I guess
Why: Tri Attack off this guy, along with a BP'd sub and speed lets him sweep with little trouble. He can even get in a Scheme (or 2 but really doubtful) behind Driftblim's sub if I'm lucky.
Why not: Regirock with Sandstream support, strong Mach Punchers ruin him.
Lucario*life orb
Ability: Inner Focus
Nature: Modest
?????
Why: Can run mix sweep and his walled by few opponents. Resistant to sandstream.
Why not: Not enough moveslots and a calm mind or two isn't going to make him powerful enough to hit those that have good defenses and can hit back harder (Rhypherior and Swampert for example). Fast mach puncher hurts him harder than PZ unless I carry Vacuum Wave.
Blaziken*Life Orb/pinch berry
Nature: def- or spc def-/speed+
? ? ?
Why: Not expected and kills Skarmbliss. Better attack power than Goku monkey plus passed speed makes him more formidable for sweeping than goku monkey. Can also BP to another person.
Why not: If Driftblim's sub is broken or he isn't BPed that necessary speed, Blaziken fails HARD. Mence and other dragons laff at him.
Any suggestions?
