Team Cheese!!!!!!! A newbie team

[sanjay2000]

Hi Guys! I really wanted some feedback for my team so I posted my first RMT for UU! I hope you like it! Also, If anyone could show me how to post the moving sprites of my pokes and items that would be appreciated.



1. Porygon-Z @Choice Scarf Trait:

Download Nature:Modest

EV:252SPA 252Spe 4HP

-Tri Attack

-Thunderbolt

-Dark Pulse

-Trick


This is my lead set for Porygon-Z. Basically it comes out, cripples the opponents lead, and hits hard. This set fails only when a Pokemon already holding a Choice Item and Porygon-Z can either switch out into the appropriate counter or attack. Download is used rather than Adaptability because a)If I get a special attack boost then I can potentially KO the opposing lead if it is defensive and I can safe my Choice Scarf for a wall. b) Ghost types such as Mismagius can come in on the predicted Tri Attack and set up a sub before I can trick.


2.Gligar @Eviolite Trait: Immunity Nature: Impish

EV: 252HP 252Def 4SpD

-Stealth Rock

-Earthquake

-Toxic

-Roost


Defensive Gligar set. Basically, this is my defensive wall that sets up Rocks. I run Toxic to cripple and roost. Pretty Standard.


3.Umbreon @Leftovers Trait : Synchronize Nature: Calm

EV:252HP 4Def @252Spd

-Wish

-Toxic

-Protect

-Foul Play


My Special wall does its job very well. It keeps its teammates healthy while also maintaining its walling capabilities. I run Toxic to cripple special sweepers that Gligar can’t switch into. Protect to stall Toxic and Wish and Foul Play so I don’t become taunt bait.


4. Kingdra @ Chesto Berry Trait: Sniper Nature: Adament

-EV: 252Atk 252 Spe 4HP


-Rest

-Waterfall

-Dragon Dance

-Outrage


My Physical Sweeper on my team, Kingdra is an Absolute Monster. I run the Resto Chesto set for healing and getting rid of Annoying status and then Dragon Dance before that so I can sweep.


Mismagius @Leftovers Trait: Levitate Nature:Timid

EV: 252SpA 252Spe 4HP

-Substitute

-Hidden Power Fighting

-Nasty Plot

-Shadow Ball

Mismagius is just downright AMAZING. Its great speed and special attack give it lots of traits to sweep. Switching in on a Normal attack and setting up a sub is how this set functions. I run HP fighting instead of thunderbolt because then Steel types can wall me for AGES.


Sceptile @Choice Specs Trait: Overgrow Nature: Timid

EV: 252SpA 252 Spe 4 SpD

-Leaf Storm

-Focus Blast

-Hidden Power Fire

-Giga Drain


Sceptile rounds this somewhat offensive team, hitting really hard with the Choice Specs. I can function in any role such as revenge killing thanks to its high speed, or Hitting Steel types hard, or breaking defensive wall by bluffing the Swords Dance set. Giga drain is there over some other move because it gives reliable healing.

Hello Sanjay, and welcome to UU. This is a pretty fun and refreshing tier to experiment with, and I wish you the best of luck and fun on your journey! I have a few things that could make your team a lot better.

Make sure you're running Timid on your PorygonZ instead of Modest. Your PorygonZ has plentttyyy of power even with a neutral special attack stat and you need that extra speed in order to outrun scarfed base 80s such as Chandelure and more importantly Heracross.

Replace Gligar with Stallbreaker Crobat. I'm going to be honest here and just say that I don't think Gligar is really that good. It's not a good check to Mienshao or Cobalion because both of them regularly pack Hidden Power Ice, and it has absolutely zero offensive presence. Stallbreaker Crobat on the other hand is a wonderful check to fighting types in the tier thanks to its pretty godly defensive typing. He can switch into the predicted HJK/CC and proceed to outspeed and hit hard with Brave Bird, or U-turn out predicting the switch. It also has the added bonus of checking Roserade and Shaymin, something you weren't able to do before.

I wouldn't run Specs Sceptile. It's not that the set itself is bad, I just think there are better Pokemon for the job. Specs Raikou in my opinion would fit in Sceptile's slot better. Raikou has a lot less weaknesses while also giving you a reliable check to Water types. It's also really easy to bluff the Sub+CM set with it in a similar fashion than what you seem to be doing with Sceptile, so there's that was well.

Since you have such an offensive team, stalling out Toxic is not something you want to prioritize on. Keep Heal Bell.

That's it from me! Good luck.
