Hi guys! How are you?
Today I want to talk of the last team that I created, based on Thundurus-T. His special attack is incredible and with the right support it is capable of destroying almost anything. The team does not turn bad, I came to 1500+ in the ladder, and I would like some advice to make it definitely competitive.
Let's go!
Building phase:
As you know, I started by Thundurus-T for his power of sweeper. I think that the speed could be a problem for him, and so I chose to also use a baton passer, and the choice is Scolipede. With this two pokemon he began to serve a defogger, and Latios is the better option, since can also help Thundurus-T in the sweep. Now, the special wall can be a hard problem e and I decided to enter as a physical sweeper, that also the mega of my team, Mega Heracross, that in partnership with Scolipede can become difficult to stop. Next step is choice a setter, and Heatran form a good core with the rest of the team. Finally, like a last pokemon I put Slowbro, useful like a Physical wall.
Moveset:
Thundurus-Therian @ Wide Lens
Ability: Volt Absorb
EVs: 4 HP / 252 SpA / 252 Spe
Timid Nature
IVs: 0 Atk / 30 Def
- Focus Blast
- Thunderbolt
- Hidden Power [Ice]
- Nasty Plot
My dear friend. Thunderbolt and HP Ice are obvious, Focus Blast good coverage versus pokemon like Ferrothorn, Excadrill, Magnezone, Tyranitar (Wide Lens is exactly for the accuracy of this move). In predict, and especially if already with the boost in speed, with Nasty Plot Thundurus-T is unstoppable.
Scolipede (M) @ Focus Sash
Ability: Speed Boost
EVs: 252 Atk / 4 Def / 252 Spe
Jolly Nature
- Megahorn
- Endeavor
- Baton Pass
- Protect
The perfect Baton Passer in this team. With this spread can defeat pokemon with Alakazam, Latwins, Mew, Serperior and Starmie, and not just be a simple Baton Passer. Endeavor can overturn some match.
Latios @ Life Orb
Ability: Levitate
EVs: 252 SpA / 4 SpD / 252 Spe
Timid Nature
IVs: 0 Atk / 30 SpA / 30 Spe
- Draco Meteor
- Psyshock
- Hidden Power [Fire]
- Defog
Classic set from life orber. Hp Fire like coverage for Bisharp and generally the steel type.
Heracross (M) @ Heracronite
Ability: Moxie
EVs: 240 HP / 136 Atk / 132 Spe
Adamant Nature
- Close Combat
- Rock Blast
- Pin Missile
- Bullet Seed
Also this is enough classic. The different this Bullet Seed on Swords Dance, that helpful me with Azumarill, Keldeo, Manaphy and Mostly Rotom-W.
Heatran (M) @ Leftovers
Ability: Flash Fire
EVs: 248 HP / 8 Def / 252 SpD
Calm Nature
IVs: 0 Atk
- Lava Plume
- Stealth Rock
- Roar
- Taunt
Good partner for my sweeper. Set the rocks, burn, taunt for antistall and roar is always helpful.Very important with the majority of fairy.
Slowbro (M) @ Rocky Helmet
Ability: Regenerator
EVs: 248 HP / 252 Def / 8 SpD
Bold Nature
IVs: 0 Atk
- Scald
- Toxic
- Thunder Wave
- Slack Off
My physical wall. Absorbs the attack and causes recoil. Spam status (do not need Psyshock or Ice Beam, so better spam status depending on the situation).
Well. I hope that my team will like it and you can give me some advice to improve it. For now, only difficult threat is Mega Diancie. Easy win versus all my pokemon. Waiting for your comments and your ideas :)
