Hello, and thank you for taking the time out to read and (hopefully) help me with my team!
This is my first post, although I have been lurking around the boards and whatnot for a little bit. On to the Pokemon!
(Changes in bold)
Ninjask @ Lefties
Ability: Speed Boost
EVs: HP-176 ATK-252 SPE- 80
Nature: Jolly
- X-Scissor
- Sword Dance
- Substitute
- Baton Pass
A fairly average baton passing Ninjask. I plan on starting with him,
getting a speed boost out of it, and hopefully a sword dance and/or substitute.
He then will baton pass to:
Lucario (M) @ Life Orb
Ability: Inner Focus
EVs: 6 HP/252 Atk/252 Spd
Adamant nature (+Atk, -SAtk)
- Close Combat
- Extremespeed
- Swords Dance
- Crunch/Stone edge
Lucario is here to sweep as much as possible, dealing with anything that comes his way.
Hopefully he won't die to quick, as he counters a lot of potential threats.
Gliscor (M) @ Leftovers
Ability: Sand Veil
EVs: 252 HP/4 Atk/252 Def
Impish nature (+Def, -SAtk)
- Earthquake
- Stealth Rock
- Roost
- Aerial Ace/ Stone edge
My main physical wall, he can withstand quite a few hits.
He can also dish out some damage, and is great against Heracross.
Aerial Ace would be better for Heracross and a few others,
but stone edge might give me a better type coverage for him...
Slowking (M) @ Leftovers
Ability: Own Tempo
EVs: 212 HP/252 Spd/46 SAtk
Calm nature (+SDef, -Atk)
- Surf
- Grass Knot
- Slack Off
- Thunder Wave
My main special wall, he can hold his own against people,
and still dish out some damage. He also helps with some type coverage.
Ambipom @ Lefties
Ability: Technician
EVs: HP-108 ATK-150 SPE-252 (that any good?)
Nature: Timid
- Nasty Plot
- Baton Pass
- Swift
- Sunny Day
The concept here is for him to nasty plot as much as possible, then baton pass to Ninetails.
This obviously isn't only for late game sweeping, but I'll get into that later.
Also, if HE is my last pokemon, the swift is STAB'd and technician'd for
some fair damage. He sets up sunny day, then baton passes to:
Ninetales @ Wide Lens (or should I use lefties?)
Ability: Flash Fire
EVs: HP-6 SPE-252 SPA-252
Nature: Timid
- Energy Ball/Hypnosis (not sure which)
- Solarbeam
- Fire Blast
- Nasty Plot/energy ball or hypnosis?
Obviously, Ninetales should get one nasty plot in from ambipom, and maybe one in from itself, setting up for a sweep.
sunny day + solar beam = instant doom to all type advantages, as well as good damage, and anti-weather effect.
Obviously increases the damage on the accuraccy-improved Fire blast for more face melting.
Tyranitar- Slowking can surf him?
Azelf- Lucario?
Electivire- not too sure here...
Gengar- Lucario?
Weavile- Ninetails, Ninjask?
well, the list doesn't look TOO big, adn i might be forgetting some pokemon
so how would you guys fix this? Any others I missed?
Any glaring weaknesses?
For my first one, I don't think I did that bad!
