Team Isadco

So... hi. This is my first succesfull team, that means that it wins more than it loses. So here it is.

Cat (Weavile) (M) @ Focus Sash
Ability: Pressure
EVs: 4 HP/252 Atk/252 Spd
Jolly nature (+Spd, -SAtk)
- Fake Out
- Taunt
- Ice Punch
- Night Slash

Fake out + second fastest taunt + great stab coverage, there's nothing not to like.

Leviathan (Gyarados) (M) @ Leftovers
Ability: Intimidate
EVs: 156 HP/108 Atk/100 Def/144 Spd
Adamant nature (+Atk, -SAtk)
- Stone Edge
- Waterfall
- Dragon Dance
- Taunt

Standard tauntados. 6-0 potential if the opponent does some mistakes (like switching in skarmory or swampert).

Kangaroo (Breloom) (M) @ Toxic Orb
Ability: Poison Heal
EVs: 44 HP/252 Atk/212 Spd
Adamant nature (+Atk, -SAtk)
- Focus Punch
- Substitute
- Leech Seed
- Spore

General annoyer and late game sweeper if the opponent's remaining pokemons are slower than him.

Ball (Gengar) (M) @ Choice Scarf
Ability: Levitate
EVs: 4 Def/252 Spd/252 SAtk
Modest nature (+SAtk, -Atk)
- Shadow Ball
- Thunderbolt
- Trick
- Energy Ball

Fast special killer, and annoyer with trick.

Frog (Swampert) (M) @ Leftovers
Ability: Torrent
EVs: 240 HP/216 Def/52 SAtk
Relaxed nature (+Def, -Spd)
- Earthquake
- Stealth Rock
- Surf
- Roar

General annoyer #2, it's so funny when the opponet tries to switch in a counter and I just roar on the switch.

Robot (Magnezone) @ Leftovers
Ability: Magnet Pull
EVs: 172 HP/84 Spd/252 SAtk
Modest nature (+SAtk, -Atk)
- Thunderbolt
- Substitute
- Tri Attack
- Flash Cannon

Steel killer, I have doubts with tri attack but the high chance of status infliction has randomly been useful.

Sorry for the shortness but I can't really write long things. :/ If you like the images you can find them by writing hitec and the name of the pokemon in google images.

Hi.
I think Scizor seems to have some fun with this team sans Gyarados. STAB Bullet Punch takes care of Breloom and Weavile, while pursuit can take care of Gengar, and U-turn can deal some pretty legit damage to Swampert. I would suggest a ScarfZone specifically to deal with Scizor:

Magnezone @ Choice Scarf
Ability: Magnet Pull
Nature: Naive or Timid
EVs: 4 HP/ 252 SpA/ 252 Spe
- Thunderbolt
- HP Fire
- Explosion
- Flash Cannon

Oh and on Weavile, although Ice Punch deals more damage, I would probably go for Ice Shard instead, for that priority move that your team sorely lacks.

Good luck!

I love the pictures but, cute as they are, I need more descriptions and team strategy to work out what your team needs?

More descriptions please? :)

Out of interest what is your plan of action? Although the synergy is good, it feels like the team has been half cobbled together to counter some threats and to randomly hit people with some attacks then hope your opponent "makes some mistakes" so that you can 6-0 with Gyara? O_O

What do you do if you lose Gyara? Breloom and Magnezone have trouble sweeping with low speed and attacking power :o

Please add more descriptions!
I know it can be nerve-wracking but it would really help :)

Bye

3. Have some actual words in your post beyond your six Pokemon and their moves. Not following this makes your post quite boring to read and rate. All Pokemon should have a good reason for being in your team anyway, so why not post that reason? If you are having trouble with this one, start by giving an explanation for each team member. Why are they there? What role do they serve? How do you get them in? Then, give an explanation of how you would open with the team and how you would go about using it. All of these things help people rate your team and allow us to offer more helpful advice.

This does not mean add one sentence saying "Standard x" or "all-around awesome" after each Pokemon. If you put thought into making the team, you can put thought into posting it.

The pics are great, but lengthier descriptions are definitely needed. You'll get better rates as a result as well. PM me with the edited thread and I'll open it.
