So i have this dream. a dream that one day Whimsicott will rise up back to its former glory as a genuine threat in OU. Until that utopia is realized i will continue to find a place of it in my team(maybe). Please bare in mind that my team is still a work in progress and like all things it is subject to change. now to meet my "creative" team of diabetes inducing fluff~
Chansey (F) @ Eviolite
Ability: Natural Cure
EVs: 40 HP / 252 Def / 216 SpD
Impish Nature
- Seismic Toss
- Soft-Boiled
- Toxic
- Stealth Rock
Lets start with Chansey. What could possibly be anymore cute than a little pink bundle of joy stalling you out for countless turns until your special threats die of a sugary overdose? the main purpose for this pokemon in my team is just to be a big fat special wall that can set up stealth rocks and be a general pain to deal with. there really isn't much to say about this set that makes it unique so we'll just move straight on.
Latias @ Light Clay
Ability: Levitate
EVs: 252 HP / 176 SpA / 80 SpD
Calm Nature
- Defog
- Wish
- Reflect
- Thunderbolt
You thought i was done with special walls? THINK AGAIN. while i know its not really ideal to have 2 special tanks when the majority of the OU threats are physical i find that Latias really does a better job than that of my previous screen supporti'm looking at you Klefki may you rip in pepperonis along with swagger where you belong. Its key function is to remove any entry hazards for my team and to keep my damage threats healthy with Wish. the thunderbolt is kind of a placeholder at the moment because i'm not too sure what offensive move Latias gains the most neutral hit coverage with/benefits it the most. did i mention Latias is as cute? |'D
Togekiss (F) @ Choice Scarf
Ability: Serene Grace
EVs: 252 SpA / 4 SpD / 252 Spe
Modest Nature
- Air Slash
- Trick
- Nasty Plot
- Flamethrower
-[INSERT POKEMON HERE]- Flinched and couldn't move. call me cheap all you want this thing does so much work for me. granted its not always reliable Togekiss is probably the Pokemon that holds my team together. Trick allows me to dispose of item dependent Pokemon (mostly just eviolite Pokemon and leftover sets) while also giving me access to other options outside of Air Slash spam. flamethrower also keeps them pesky steel types in checkand then i'm reminded that bullet punch exists. Did i mention this thing is cute?
Charizard @ Charizardite Y
Ability: Solar Power
EVs: 44 Atk / 212 SpA / 252 Spe
Hasty Nature
- Flamethrower
- Solar Beam
- Overheat
- Brick Break
This is the eyesore in my team. That aside Charizard is probably the biggest damage dealer in my team. while the coverage isn't that great sunny day more than makes up for it with raw damage. what else is there to say really?im sorry lopunny i betrayed you please forgive me.
Azumarill @ Sitrus Berry
Ability: Huge Power
EVs: 200 HP / 252 Atk / 28 Def / 28 SpD
Adamant Nature
- Aqua Jet
- Belly Drum
- Play Rough
- Bulldoze
Azumarill is laughing at you all as it remembers all the neglect you showed it prior to gen 6. this adorable bunny now packs a mighty punch but is also my only source of real physical damage(Chansey doesn't count guys). this set is rather plain but has one somewhat noticeable gimmick to it, Bulldoze. if you can bait out a switch this move water bunny over here can outplay a number of Pokemon you wouldn't otherwise out speed. rather than invest 40 points in speed i chose to bring the the other defensive stats above 200like it really makes a difference amirite? the biggest reason it takes a slot on my team though is for the priority of aqua jet and to check the dread Landorus.
Whimsicott (F) @ Leftovers
Ability: Prankster
EVs: 192 HP / 252 Def / 64 SpA
Bold Nature
- Cotton Guard
- Leech Seed
- Moon blast
- Growth
now that you've seen the rest its time to meet the cutest. by far the cutest piece of diabetes inducing bundle of joy you will ever see in the Pokemon universe now and foreverbecause it's not like i'm totally bias or anything, Whimsicott (while not being the biggest damage threat) is the anchor to my team. if given the chance Whimsicott will eat any team alive if you're unprepared for it. the main focus of this Pokemon is to act as my physical wall. "but LiberationPanda, Whimsicott is far too squishy to be a tank" i hear you cry, well you would be dead WRONG. priority cotton guard>leech seed is the core to this set and transforms this fluff-ball into a genuine "tanky" annoyance. Growth combined with the Drought from Charizard then turns it into a damage threat, truly worthy of holding the title of "Anchor" in my team.
please be aware i run multiple Whimsicotts with this set with the latter 2 moves altering between Giga Drain, Fake Tears, Tailwind and light screen depending on how aggressive or defensive i feel like playing that day. Rocky helmet is also a thing so yeah.
And now to close it's like i'm writing an essay i swear. While my team lacks a lot of coverage it makes up for it with a fair amount of sustained damage. one of the biggest flaws i am yet to address is the fact that if Whimsicott is killed my team lacks a huge amount of physical bulk which can lead to an easy sweep (i'm looking at you Scizor). and yes half of this team has a weakness to poison and steel so that's a thing. open to thoughts and opinions and any options people might have on how i could improve this team or even any distinct issues you have with the set and why you hate it |'D
