I'm not good at write ups so bear with me, anyhow here goes. I decided to name this team Caribbean since I live on a small Caribbean island called Barbados where it's practically sunny all the time
Sunny Day—while it seems strange—should not be new to anyone lurking this forum. It allows me to set my weather while Tyranitar, Hippowdon, or Politoed switch in. This is especially important because it allows me to gain momentum, one of the most important factors in today's games. Toxic is normally for walls that are hard to break down through sheer force and other weather inducers, as poisoning them severely limits their durability.
With Choice Scarf Terrakion common on PO I needed a way to outspeed him so a Timid Nature was needed and 172 Speed EVs to guarantee that I would outspeed Terrakion. The other EVS were pumped into 84 its HP to help survive Ice Shards and BandScizor Bullet Punches and 1HKO them back with Hidden Power Fire. Still not sure, if to remove growth and give it sunny day. That would allow Venusaur to bring back the sun just incase ninetails is dead, inturn doubling his speed and allowing no charge of solar beam.
He is here to help me out with dragons
Even with little investment in Sp.Attack a sun boosted Fire Blast hurts and roasts the likes of Scizor and Skarmory. Seeing how I needed a fast sweeper, I put a choice scarf to outspeed +1 Dragonite who cause me some problems, Outrage is to get a quick KO to get a +1 from Moxie . Salamence is very capable of turning a hopeless battle into a glorious victory. Outrage puts a dent in latios and latias
Sheer Force gives almost all these moves a 30% boost, as well as negating any Life Orb damage. Flare Blitz is my main move, as it will 2HKO even stuff that resists it, while U-Turn is an awesome move to scout with. Stone Edge is to hIt things hard like gyrados and dragonite. can take out volcarona with one hit after stealth rock has put a dent in it. Even without stealth rock, rock slide or stone edge would kill it with one hit. .
OR
I really love this pokemon's ability for this team. It increases the teams accuracy so coupled with wide lens which Venusaur has, sleep powder will then have a 95 percent accuracy of sending the opponents pokemon to sleep. V create is extremely power without sun and is beastly with sun. uturn is to get a hit on psychic and dark types
I can't really think of anything to write about Dugtrio. All I know is that he does do a good job of trapping and eliminating opposing Heatran and tyranitar, Earthquake for the obvious STAB move and Sub Reversal is pretty powerful against blissey who would also be trapped by arena trap. He is also here to switch in on a pokemon which was sent to sleep by venusaur and set up sub and stealth rock
Forretress isn't 2HKOd by any attacks courtesy of sturdy , he is my main spiker and rapid spinner of the team. Gyro Ball allows Forretress to hit switch-ins such as Hydreigon. Forretress holds the benefit of using Volt Switch for momentum as well, and can also set Spikes to help out your powerful sweepers score KOs that they otherwise wouldn't.
I tired inserting the pictures but they just won't come up. I found some on images on imageshack, I put in the url but when I try to preview the post, the images don't show.
