Starter
Jirachi@choice scarf
Sirene Grace
80 HP / 252 Atk / 176 Spe
Adamant (+attack -SPC attack)
Iron Head
Trick
Fire Punch
Thunder punch
My lead and a great one too. scarfed makes him faster than Aerodactyl and just about ever pokemon thats not scarfed. i try to keep him alive for later because Iron head flinch rate 60% almost never fails me plus he gets good covarage with fire, electric, and steel.
THE COUNTER
Mesprit@leftovers
levitate
252 HP / 220 Def / 36 SpA
Bold (+Defence -Attack)
thunderbolt
ice beam
grass knot
steath rocks
My Favorite counter better than porygon 2. i usually bring him in on an EQ aimed at jirachi than attack with the most effective attack posible or steath rock depending on the enemy. grass knot OHKOs Swampert and Rhyperior, ice beam OHKO Salamence, and thunderbolt OHKO gyarados after steath rock damage.
The Wall Kinda
Swampert@leftovers
torrent
252 Hp / 58 Defense / 200 SPC Defense
Careful (+Defense - SPC Attack)
Curse
Waterfall
Earthquake
Avalanche
Well swampert is one of the best walls i think, because of typing and Coverage. He gets STAB waterfall and EQ. i usually bring him in on i fire or electric attacks. (mainly Heatran) and either curse or attack usually curse because im pretty sure theyll switch. This guy has swept entire teams before.
The Physical Sweeper
Salamence@life orb
imtimidate
200 Hp / 200 Attack / 110 Speed
Adamant (+attack -SPC attack)
dragon dance
dragon claw
earthquake
brick break
salamence is great he can usually force a switch, then thats when i dragon dance after a dragon dance he usually is set for a sweep but i try to get two in. good coverage too. im willing to change his set and ev's though life orb and steath rocks take its toll pretty quick. ill take any suggestions on him.
