Before you question my selection in Pokemon please understand my abit of my view. A abit of ranting so you may skip this. Basically I tried to go competitive Pokemon. The few things I like about the Meta is IV & EV's training. I also like the battle flow of switching, and predicting; but I quickly realized that the scene is losing the spirit of Pokemon. Too much Never-used Pokemon these days, so I chose not to follow the so-called "Standard" Tiers of the Singles-metagame. Following a list of what I could include in a team is just not Pokemon too me. I loved Pokemon because you get to pick the ones that you wanted to battle with, and not for the reason of having the best, or current trend. Basically with such a broad-spectrum of Pokemon I seeing to many "Clone Teams", or using Uber Pokemon, simply cos they can't win any other way. Honestly when I looked at the tier list they weren't kidding when they say "OVER USED" I honestly battle the same Pokemon Teams, and same copy cat gimmicks. So over used that it quickly become easy to predict since everyone uses them. I STRONGLY dislike the very concept of it on a deep level, it just bothers me so much that a game that makes a big deal out of the fact that Pokemon are supposed to be raised for FUN AND COMPANIONSHIP, where people who freak out over "which Pokemon is strongest" are ALWAYS portrayed in a negative light, is stuffed full of people who ONLY do just that..
(wifi I often ask if legendary can or can't be used. From there we battle with pokemon we like, with a competitive flow style) Want to use your favorite Houndoom in the "overused" tier? Good luck. You will be immediately swarmed by a team with 4-6 legends that completely obliterate your Pokemon , often using the cheapest tactics. I understand that Tiers are there to simply keep balance in the competitive part of Pokemon. But the character diversity within the game, and the Living core of Pokemon die with it
Thank you for reading I would like to ask how I can improve my existing team. In order to maximize too the full potential. Please not to say choose better Pokemon. I'm just trying to build my chemistry (I loved Pokemon when I was 4 years old, 13 years back, and stopped playing in 2006 Perl was the last one I got. Recently I bought a 3DS and White 2. Just got back into Pokemon, so I'm just a bit new.) The Team holds there ground in the so called OU game, and certainly does well with good prediction, and match up. Again Thank you for reading, please rate, and suggestion in improvement would be nice! Thank you for the support!
My team is a semi-balance team. Composed of some of my Favorite Pokemon; Stunning in beauty, yet hits hard in a speed game.
My Team (I don't know why, I like a mostly a female team.
)
Attacks: Flamethrower, Wisp-O-Wisp, Solar-beam, Hypnosis
Nintales 2nd fastest on the team, and is the core. It sets up the hard sun for Leafeon, and usually out speeds the first Pokemon in the battle (usually a heavy Pokemon that sets up rocks,spikes,Baton pass), all EV's went into Speed, and Sp, Atk. She hits super hard with a flamethrower STAB that also gets a power boost from the Sun, and has a one turn Solar-Beam to take out heavy Ground or Water type Pokemon. In addition can easily set up a switch into another Pokemon so she/he can (Sword dance, Baton Pass, Calm Mind) at the start with a Hypnosis hit, in addition a possible sweep with a fast Hypnosis. Nintales can also take Sp.Atk hits like nothing.
-------
Attacks: Ice Beam, Surf, Dragon Tail, Recover
Milotic is a mixed wall, slow that dragon tail non-priory won't matter, and gets rid of Pokemon if they Baton Pass, stats boost, mismatch. Hitting the STAB Surf or Ice beam for a versatile super effective move. I usually switch into her to save a Pokemon, and then Recover. Marval Scale helps boost her Defense when under condition. She doesn't need the Nature for Attack. so used a nature into Defense. Since her Sp. Atk is already good, and EV invested into more HP for wall purpose.
------
Attacks: Sword Dance, Synthesis, Leaf Blade, Baton Pass
Leafeon is my first cute Physical Sweeper. With Nintale's Sun it opens up her special ability Chlorophyll, doubling her speed to a fast 620 Speed (making her the fastest in the team) In addition she can take heavy physical hits with her high defense, and recover her health with a sun boosted Synthesis. In addition 1 - 2 Sword Dances and a leaf blade will destroy Teams. In addition she can Baton Pass her Sword Dance boost to Lucario or Pikachu, even Milotic (Dragon Tail). Making them super deadly! Once her threats are taken out, she is a force to be reckon with!With EV's I'm still not sure, the current ones I have are from Smogon.
-------
Attacks: Volt Tackle, Substitute, Thunder, Attract
The other cute Pokemon on the team, Pikachu is too cool! Holding a light ball doubles her Attack making it 418 and Sp. Atk to 274! In addition her she gets a STAB boost since all of her attacks are Electric! No Pokemon will surive a Volt Tackle (Stab, 418 atk, 120 power,100% accuracy) hit if Leafeon Baton passes a Sword Dance or two. Pikachu also absorbs Electric Hits on prediction! Attract prevents Male Pokemon from hurting her! In addition same speed as Lucario, so she can also scout out faster Pokemon to protect Lucario being out sped. As for EV's I don't expect Pikachu to last long if I use her in the early game, and lowering her low defense wouldn't matter ; so I picked a nature to increase her speed so she has a fighting chance. Shes a good finisher during end games, and with her low defenses I choice to lower her Sp. Defense since she is immune to electric attacks (usually Sp.),
-------
Attacks: Calm Mind, Psychic, Shadow Ball, Hypnosis
Gardevoir my Primary Sp. Atk Sweeper. In addition can take Sp. Atk hits! A Hypnosis hit, and a set up Calm Mind, Shadow Ball/Psychic will tare them apart. In addition counters that OverUsed Ninjask substitution tactic! She will copy Ninjask's Speed Boost, and while they use substation I hit with a Psychic, and set myself up for a +6 boost of Calm Mind's. When they switch/baton pass she will have Max Speed,Special Defense, and Special Attacks utterly quick sweeping the opponent.
-------
Attacks: Sword Dance, Close Combat, Extreme Speed, Crunch
Lucario The other Baton Pass Target, basically breaks team apart if Leafeon gets a Baton Pass to Lucario. In addation is the wall breaker for those bulky Pokemon. Extreme Speed if being out sped, and Crunch so hes not locked down to ghost type Pokemon. In terms of EV's Lucario I selected ones that befit his role as fast striker in case I need get over something, and OHKO the threats.
