Sunny Day team

hlaalu

Rypherior @ heat rock
solid rock
inpish
244 hp / 44 atk / 140 SpD / 80 def

•EQ
•stone edge
•megahorn / t-punch (help plz)
•sunny day

My main 'sunny dayer' and surprise lead. Good coverage and can use it as a wall. When Sunny day is going solid rock lets me live a kingdra surf and 3 gyarados waterfalls.


Typhlosion @ choise scarf
blaze
modest
252 spA / 160 spe / 96 hp

• eruption
• sunny day
• solar beam
• HP ice

150 base, stab and sunny day boost. This will 2hko bliss and outrun everything except other scarfed pokes really. Its also my back up sunny dayer, it has the speed to get sunny day off asuming I predict right.


Exeggutor @ life orb
chlorophyll
modest
252 spA / 252 Spe / 4 hp

• solar beam
• explosion
• phychic
• synthesis / sunny day / hp fire / sleep powder (help plz)

my final spec sweeper. chlorophyll gives good speed and STAB solar beam and phychic hit most types for at least std damage. Life orb exlposion will kill bliss asuming she hasn't got too many def evs.


leafeon @ life orb
leaf guard
jolly
252 atk / 252 spe / 4 spD

• swords dance
• leaf blade
• double edge / quick attack (help plz)
• rest

Physical sweeper. The grass version of manaphy, just packs more punch. Leaf guard gives u awesome recovery in form of rest. An oft-overlooked eeveelution


Aerodactyl @ choice band
pressure
adamant
42 hp / 252 atk / 216 spe

• stone edge
• EQ
• ice fang / fire fang / thunder fang (help plz!)
• pursuit

Revenge killer and late game sweeper rly. Sunny day lets it live weaker water attacks.


Cresselia @ leftovers
levitate
calm
252 hp / 100 def / 56 spA / 100 spD

• moonlight
• t- wave
• phychic
• ice beam

A strange cress , moonlight gives it the extra healing ability due to sunny day, t-wave cripples sweepers that can't be hurt with ice beam or psychic.


I know sand stream will hurt this team. But I have a plenty ttar and hippo counters. This is not a serious team though when I finish it I'll test it out and see if it can actually work. Anyway, post ur thoughts and give me ur opinion (specially where I'm unsure on moves)

hmm, this seems wierd... There are alot better sunny day leads to set up the sun better then rhyperior, and you also dont have a second sunny day set up. I doubt your going to sweep in 8-9 turns, so your going to need something to set up sunny day a second time
 
O_o what a funky team but go max speed with typhlosion no point for hp <_<.
and take off sunny day on it for something like Focus blast lol and megahorn on rhyperior
 
what does focus blast hit that nothing there does? only normal types which wud take more damage from the stab eruption. I kinda need a spinner, coz I can't switch typhlosion in with rocks up, any suggestions?.
 
Put Stealth Rock on Rhyperior over Megahorn, and you need a rapid spinner. Aerodactyl just adds to your weakness, so I think maybe a HP Fire Starmie could do you some favors there... with rapid spin of course. Or put it over Leafon, and replace Aero with Dugtrio.

Also, give Executor Sunny Day and Leafon if you keep it (which you shouldn't). I don't know what cress does for you.

This team has potential though.
 
Lead with typhlosion, this will get you in better status. rhyperior is just waay too slow. Rhyperior should be used as a full fledged sweeper, give him substitute and you'll make him much stronger. Use mega horn over thunderpunch, and take that damn heat rock off of him and give him either Life Orb or Leftovers, pending on if you choose Substitute or another attack.I can see Tangrowth over Cresselia, he can absorb those water attacks aimed at your Rhyperior, Aerodactyl and Typhlosion, and use huis arsenal to completely dismember them. Tangrowth gets Stun Spore, Sleep Powder, Power Whip, Knock Off...he's a great team player, and he also gets a choice of either Chlorophyll, or Leaf Guard, which ties into your sunny day team.

I see Synthesis on your Exeggutor, that way he can heal from Scizor attacking him with priority (which i can see happening) and also, he can recover that Life Orb recoil. Why are you using Eruption on Typhlosion? Opt for Fire Blast instead, Eruption is way too risky late game, and especially if he's around 10%. This screws your late game sweep because, well, you wont have a strong fire move to OHKO steels that could defeat you.
Use Quick attack on Leafeon, and take off rest! Why would you use rest anyways? Leafeon's not bulky enough to be resting in the "heat" of battle /pun. Why dont you use Substitute, or Return? Substitute gets you ready to set up a swords dance, and Return gives you another attacking option. In my opinion, Substitute wins, but ultimately your choice.
For Aero, use Ice fang, it offers the best coverage. You don't need thunder fang because Gyarados is owned by Aero's Stone Edge, so you don't need that. Fire Fang would just pretty much be filler, and no Grass pokemon will come in on Aerodactyl.

Steels will, but you have Typhlosion for that. Oh, and fix Rhyperior's ev spread. It should pretty much imo be a standard sweeping ev spread, go 252 atk and 252 Hp, Rhyperior isn't outrunning anything anytime soon.
You only have two pokemon that are weak to Stealth rock, therefore, you don't need a spinner. It would take a moveslot up for a crappy pokemon that wouldn't do you much good at all. If you lead with typhlosion, you wouldn't really have to worry about Rocks, you could make it into a sort of Suicide lead, or you could just sac it for something else, because if you want a spinner so badly for Typhlosion, you might as well go Bellyzard instead, because imo bellyzard > Typhlosion.

I agree with MetaNite. Stealth Rock is best here, as it is such a good move, and your Rhyperior is not meant for direct offence.

However, Bronzong is a better transition pokemon, as it has better typing and only one weakness. Rhyperior won't be having a SDef boost without Sandstorm.



Typhlosion @ choise scarf

252 spA / 252 spe / 4 hp

• Fire Blast
• Focus Blast
• solar beam
• HP ice

Scarf users are horrible pokemon to set up Sunny Day, so I replaced it with Focus Blast. Fire Blast > Eruption, because Stealth Rock damage will make Fire Blast stronger than Eruption.

However, Scarf Heatran > Scarf Typhlosion thanks to better stats and typing. This is even more important in a sun team, as Heatran can absorb boosted Fire attacks that your opponent may try to abuse. It is also a Steel pokemon, which can wall many different attacks, even an Outraging Salamance in emergencies. strongly recommend this change.



Exeggutor @ life orb
chlorophyll
: Naive
evs: 252 SpA / 16 Atk / 240 Spe

• Grass Knot
• explosion
• sunny day
sleep powder

These EVs enable Exeggutor to outrun Scarf Heatran in the Sun, as well as outrunning 8 EV Speed Cresselia. I know it's sad for Grass Knot > Solarbeam, but with Tyranitar everywhere these days, it has to be done. Otherwise, Tyranitar comes and disrupts you as you use Solarbeam, forcing you into a very unfavourable position. A Sleep move is a must on such a fast Pokemon.


leafeon @ life orb
leaf guard
jolly
252 atk / 252 spe / 4 spD

• double edge / quick attack (help plz)
• rest

Physical sweeper. The grass version of manaphy, just packs more punch. Leaf guard gives u awesome recovery in form of rest. An oft-overlooked eeveelution

Leafeon is a poor OU sweeper. Too many pokemon resist Leaf Blade. I rather run a sure-fire Tyranitar counter. None of your pokemon can swap in safely on it. So I was thinking of makinga defensive Leaf Guard pokemon, which can also be your second sunny day pokemon (Exeggutor doesn't counter, as it doesn't have Leaf Rock or the defensive potential). But there's a better pokemon at this job than Leafeon:

Tangrowth - Heat Rock - Impish
Leaf Guard
Sunny Day
Rest
Power Whip
Knock Off
252 HP / 228 Def / 28 Spe

The EVs allow Tangrowth to outspeed Relaxed Swapmert, whilst maximising defensive potential. It's another Sunny Day set upper, with instant heal thanks to Leaf Guard and Rest. Power Whip and Tangrowth's bulk obliterates Tyranitar, Hippowdon and Gyarados. Knock Off is to knock off enemy Leftovers, and determine what set Salamance has when he swaps in. If it knocks off a Salamance LO/CB, it will fail to 2HKO Cresselia with Outrage.
