Featuring Dragonite: My Favorite Pokemon



Dragonite Has been my favorite pokemon since the begining of the anime pokemon. Although I don't watch the shows anymore, I still check out the movies. Dragonite was featured in the 1st okemon movie. It was shown as a messenger. He looked cool to me, and when I checked him out for diamond, I found out that he was a strong pokemon overall.

Bronzong@Lum Berry
ability: Levitate
nature: Relaxed
EV's: 252 HP/ 152 Atk/ 106 SpD
Moveset:
-Gyro Ball
-Hypnosis
-Stealth Rock
-Earthquake

Bronzong is one of the best tanks/supporters. It covers a wide arrange of types. This bronzong is pretty standard, the reason i have reflect is for more defensive power, but i'm a little icky about it. This guy is a good lead, it can stealth rock right away, or sleep on the switch. Sleeping strong atackers is scoring BIG. Bronzong = Suporter
There is no better zong than the standard and he isn't really countering gross which is one of his main things without earthquake. The 152 Atk EV's are there to OHKO any gengar, which rocks ^_^

Dragonite@ Yache Berrry
Ability: Inner Focus
Nature: Jolly
EV: 252 Atk/ 252 Spe/ 6 HP
Moveset:
-Dragon Dance
-Outrage
-Firepunch
-Earthquake


Dragonite is the bomb when he gets two dragon dances in. I switch into a choice skarf garchomp that uses fireblast. It does little damage. So my opponent switches in let's say bronzong, and I use a Dragon Dance. I dragon dance again, or take it out. If i get two free dragon dances, the game is over. This set is self explainitory. Dragon Fire And Ground takes out many different pokemon. Dragonite = my favorite pokemon ^_^
Yache berry is always the best item on DDnite.Spread lets him outspeed starmie/azelf/raikou/sceptile after one boost. This guy is my all time favorite pokemon. I don't see too many skarms running in this thing becuase everyone knows that most dragonites have a fire move. I love my dragonite ^_^. Many people only have one ice beamer, so they send it out to dragonite. They would not suspect this guy to live, then I OHKO them back.

Cresselia@Leftovers
Ability: Levitate
Nature: Modest
EV's: 20 Hp/ 252 Def/ 236 SpA
Moveset:
-Calm Mind
-Moonlight
-Psychic
-Icebeam

Standard Cress. Can help out with Infernapes, with Psychic that is. Once it has a few calm minds, I'll be sweeping in no time :) Cresselia is one of my favorite pokemon. It looks so mystical, and it's rather strong too. Walling is this guys specialty, but he can easily turn to the offensive. Cresseling and me will go along way ^_^ loving her so far... Cresselia = Tank


_______________

Metagross@ Choice Band
Ability: Clear Body
Nature: Adamant
EV's: 252 HP/ 244 Atk/ 12 Def
Moveset:
-Bulltet Punch
-Explosion
-Thunder Punch
-Earthquake


Metagross is my man. This beast wipes celebi in a pinch. He has good defenses, and Strong attack, making him a strong hitter. Choice band is here to get stronger hits, while bullet punch is here to get some faster hits. I love the combination! ^_^, fast and stronger I've been thinking about switching him to rest talk machamp. I have no switch-ins to CB TAR. Machamp can just switch in and use dynamic punch, which will harm anything except slowbro.
_______________

I've switched from Gyarados to Slowbro
Slowbro@Leftovers
Ability: Own Tempo
Nature: BoldEV: 212 Hp/ 252 Def/ 44 SpA
Moveset:
-Hidden Power Electric
-Slack Off
-Surf
-Calm Mind

I changed Gyarados to slowbro to take care of those pesky machamps, This guy is a pretty strong physical base. First this guy counters, then sweeps. This guy is is mainly my machamp counter, which I hate dealing with those pesky dynamic punches, which could lessen my hopes of winning. I love this guy's special abillity... I wish more pokemon had the same one. Slowbro = Counterer

Heatran@Choice Scarf
Ability: Flash Fire
Nature: Mild
EV: 20 HP/ 252 SpA/ 236 Spe
Moveset:
-Explosion
-Hidden Power Ice
-Fire Blast
-Earthpower


This guy will mostly come in to bronzong's gyro ball, stealth rock, Usually being Bronzong. He will tear down bronzong and forretress. Blissey is a pain for this guy, so i'll be sure to switch immediately. This will probably be a surprise to many out there. So many people are used to heatran tanks these days... This guy will OHKO lucario, which could get messy if it get's a few sword dances in. Heatran = Kills
____________

History: I came up with this team based on my favorite pokemon, Dragonite. I began to like it when i saw the first movie, which had dragonite active in the movie. The dragon is a beast. He's my favorite pokemon, and also really strong.

I began this team by using the team builder at marriland. WHen I put down all of my pokemon, I had LOADS of resistances, which I love about this team. ^_^ It also deals with toxic spikes, which are so anoyying...

OVerall: Dragonite team based

Strategy: Bronzong will most likely sleep on the first turn. If they have a CBTAR, I'll hope it comes in on bronzong, so I can sleep it. It will be a pain to my team. I just hit fast and strong. Ninjask's these days have substitute and protect, so it's only for baton passing. That's why I need a phazer. (if this is not at smogon, then it is in marriland. Marrilander's make ninjask untouchable)

Threat List
dpiconani445.gif
Garchomp:
--- Bronzong can take it's outrages, and fire back with gyro balls, or sleep it. That would really ruin it's morale. I hate the subbing garchomps, Hopefully celebi will leech seed it before it subs.
dpiconani094.gif
Gengar:
--- Bronzong can ohko them. Choice scarf ones are the ones that are easier to handle. I predict what they do, and counter it. Metagross might go in and use bullet punch to wipe this guy to another dimension.
dpiconani242.gif
Blissey:
--- Metagross just beats it to a pulp. Cress might go in and stat up, along with slowbro. Dragonite 2HKO's this thing, and blissey can't OHKO him back.
dpiconani130.gif

--- bronzong can handle DD ones. Metagross or Dragonite could go and kill it quickly, but only if I know it's moveset. (earthquake- dragonite/ stone edge- Metagross)
dpiconani248.gif
Tyranitar:
---Bronzong can take non choice banded ones. They are taken care of my a quick earthquake from metagross or dragonite
dpiconani448.gif
Lucario:
--- Heatran will try to wear it down, then dragonite can come in and do an earthquake

dpiconani485.gif
Heatran:
---Slowbro takes care of this guy nicely after a calm mind
dpiconani437.gif
Bronzong:
---Celebi can leech it. But i would prefer my metagross to kill this one with thunder punch (not if it has Earthquake)
dpiconani373.gif
Salamence:
---Slowbro is my main counter here, cress will back it up.
dpiconani376.gif
Metagross:
---I just have to wear it down, or aim for the kills by Dragonite and metagross
dpiconani392.gif
Infernape:
---Slowbro will attempt to handle this one, along with cress who also has psychic

dpiconani461.gif
Weavile: Bronzong and metagross take on most varieties.

dpiconani260.gif
Swampert: Slowbro can stat up and attack, along with cresselia. If the thing has roar, I will attempt to just hit it fast and hard with metagross
dpiconani227.gif
Skarmory: Heatran, dragonite and Metagross all pose a threat. I don't give Skarmory much Spiking time generally, by using Bronzong to it with Hypnosis.
dpiconani472.gif
Gliscor: dragonite and Slowbro take care of these
dpiconani121.gif
Starmie: dragonite ohko it. Cress can also attempt to handle this one
dpiconani251.gif
Celebi: Heatran and Dragonite can beat any Celebi version. Mainly Heatran though.
dpiconani205.gif
Forretress: Heatran beats this easily, along with dragonite who can wear it down.

dpiconani488.gif
Cresselia: Heatran/ Metagross will beat this guy, and will not be affected much by it's attacks.
dpiconani468.gif
Togekiss: draonite and metagross can work it out to beat this guy.

dpiconani214.gif
Heracross: It looks like I have to go in and hit that thing hard, usually with dragonite's fire punch.
dpiconani385.gif
Jirachi: Heatran handles all but the incredibly rare CM/Reflect/Hidden Power Ground/Icy Wind Jirachi. Celebi can scout movesets and Bronzong doesn't mind paralysis, easily survives Jirachi's STAB moves, and can hit it back with hypnosis.
dpiconani286.gif
Breloom: SlowTran + Prediction. Garchomp and Mtagross (against non Mach Punch versions) can take it down when it doesn't have a Sub up.

dpiconani134.gif
Vaporeon: Metagross can take this one down. Slowbro will come in and stat up
dpiconani466.gif
BRonzong destroys ones without fire punch, and even if it does...

dpiconani450.gif
Hippowdon: Cresselia and slowbro can pose an immediate threat.
dpiconani482.gif
Azelf: Heatran takes on most, dragonite takes on others.

dpiconani143.gif
Snorlax: I either have to hit it hard, or to stat up and kill it
dpiconani473.gif
Mamoswine: Bronzong resists STABs, Stone Edge and the extremely common 'Peck'. Should Bronzong be down, Metagross will kill it
dpiconani212.gif
Scizor: Heatran and Dragonite take this down easily, although it might be able to pull off an Agilipass if it is running enough speed.

dpiconani474.gif
Porygon-z: Heatran and dragonite, possibly Bronzong/ slowbro too.

dpiconani462.gif
Magnezone: Dragonite and Metagross can do some serious damage
dpiconani469.gif
Yanmega: Heatran can outspeed this and OHKO this. Bronzong and Gyarados can beat it after if heatran fails. Metagross kills this one with ease.
dpiconani145.gif
Zapdos: I can outstall this with Celebi + Heatran, Metagross and dragonite will try to take this down.
dpiconani245.gif
Suicune: Slowbro will also stat up if suicune does, and can kill it with hidden power electric
dpiconani068.gif
Machamp: cress and Slowbro will attempt to handle this, but the confusion from Dynamicpunch can be very annoying and if Cresselia goes down due to this I could be in trouble. Slowbro walls this guy overall

dpiconani291.gif
Ninjask: I think I need a phazer

dpiconani475.gif
Gallade: Slowbro is a fairly reliable counter, especially when Heatran is there to finish it.
dpiconani429.gif
Mismagius: i never was used to mismagius... I suppose metagross and dragonite can work around it.
dpiconani230.gif
Kingdra: Slowbro should beat all versions.

dpiconani460.gif
Abomasnow: No problem here, most of my pokemon can super effectivly hit this guy.
dpiconani197.gif
Umbreon: Metagross should beat all versions.

dpiconani065.gif
Alakazam: I scout its moveset/item first with Heatran then switch appropriately.

dpiconani006.gif
Charizard: Dragonite is an option

dpiconani142.gif
Aerodactyl: Slowbro and bronzong just counters these guys very nicely.
dpiconani243.gif
Raikou: Bronzong and Heatran break its subs to let metagross or dragonite tp come in on and earthquake it.
---------------------------------------------

big problems are in red
I will be posting blue as a change I have made.

Thank you for your time ^_^ The gods will appreciated it
Rate Away!

PROBLEMS

-I phail a Phazer, so try to help me on that one :)
-Someone recomended me a machamp instead of the metagross, as I have no switchin's to CBtar
-I think a vaporeon phazer is good...
 
Pursuit on Metagross could help with Gengar, as I am pretty sure none of Gengars non-speced attacks 2HKO.

Shit bad typo.
 
I was about to rate this team when I saw you have seven pokemon. Anyway, Mixape has the potential to OHKO 6/7th's of this team.
 
The reason I have seven is becuase I need help choosing between metagross and swampert. The both seem good, but since there's only six per team, I need help choosing which one to use
 
HUGE mixape weak. going swampert only furthers it. change slowbro to cress with calm mind, moonlight, psychic, icebeam.

it will serve as a second status absorber in case dragonite loses lum and you need to switch. why dragon pulse on heatran? earth power works much better and will help with nape switch ins.
 
Ok well you need Metagross for the priority as far as I am concerned, he is a good lure for Heatran as well, has more resistances than Swampy, and explodes. Don't see why you would go with swampy other than the element of suprise.

Anyway, Mixape wipes his little monkey ass all over you team, so we need to find you a counter. Lets start with what you can get rid of. You don't need both Celebi and Slowbro. I would keep Slow around, and get rid of Ice Beam on it for Calm Mind. That way it can really take it to Gyarados even if it gets off a DD, you just CM and it runs for the hills. Besides you don't need two Purist weaks do you?

Calm Mind also helps you take care of Infernape, giving you the ability to take it out before it can you.

So what is to take its place?

Vaporeon is a cool option here. You can phase with Roar (which you need) you get wish support, and you can even pass subs if you want. My friend has a great EV spread for a Roaring Vaporeon and I'll get it to you when I can. Vaporeon is also lighter, and doesn't get owned by Grass Knot.

With 152 Att ev's Bronzong will OHKO Gengar with one gyroball witch I freaking love. Or you can just do 87% damage so SR kills it on the switch in with 24 Att evs (why wouldn't you do that at least?) with I'd also consider butting a Lum Berry on that beast so it can take the early Hypnosis. Also, with 2 lum berrys by your side, who needs a sleep talker?

This team is super speed weak, so you I would consider replacing Talkran, with Scarfran. Dark Pulse over Explosion so you can take care of Misdrevus.
 
HP Fight on your Celebi? It's a blessing. I'm guessing that your Heatran is fast enough against Nidoking and such.

MixApe may be a match for Slowbro, but be careful lol
Nice team.
