Sandstorm team #124553: The annoyance of Destati

Done and done. Do you mind changing the title of the thread to show that this is now a Sandstorm team? -
Sandstorm team #124553: The annoyance of Destati
Aqueel replied to Aqueel's topic in Team Building Discussion
Alright, these are my proposed changes then. Lucario (M) @ Choice Specs Ability: Inner Focus EVs: 4 HP/252 Spd/252 SAtk Timid nature (+Spd, -Atk) - Aura Sphere - Shadow Ball - Hidden Power [ice] - Vacuum Wave Lucario will replace Jolteon. Considering Tyranitar is a physical attacker, I'm making Lucario a special attacker in case of any physical walls. HP Ice is for dragons, which my team lacks coverage of, and the rest is obvious. Vaporeon (F) @ Leftovers Ability: Water Absorb EVs: 128 HP/252 Def/128 Spd Calm nature (+SDef, -Atk) - Wish - Surf - Protect - Toxic I've gone and used your template for Vaporeon. Provides wish support, protect will give a free turn of leftovers, ensure the wish heals my vaporeon if needed, and scout the enemy. Toxic is for additional status dmg along with sandstorm and stealth rocks. Clefable (F) @ Toxic Orb Ability: Magic Guard EVs: 252 HP/252 Atk/4 Spd Adamant nature (+Atk, -SAtk) - Protect - Facade - Meteor Mash - Softboiled Clefable is replacing Latias. I was originally worried about my team being mainly ground/steel/rock, and thus being weak to fighting or grass, but now I realize my Clefable is also weak to fighting -.- But I really don't know what to use for this last slot, any advice? (I was pondering Cacturne, but he's a UU) Clefable is the status absorber. Protect will let Toxic Orb kick in, making him immune to sleep or thunder wave, and then allowing him to use powerful Facades. Softboiled is to heal as needed, and meteor mash allows it to dmg rock types. Also, what EV's do you recommend for Tyranatir? P.S. Those EV's on my Jolteon? That was Speed, not Special Defense =p -
Upon Random's advice, this team is now going to be a Sandstorm team. [sprite]142[/sprite] Aerodactyl (M) @ Focus Sash Ability: Pressure EVs: 4 HP/252 Atk/252 Spd Jolly nature (+Spd, -SAtk) - Stealth Rock - Taunt - Earthquake - Rock Slide --- Weaknesses: Rock, Steel, Water, Electric, Ice Resists: Normal, Flying, Poison, Bug, Fire Immune: Ground Aero here is my lead in. Taunt can stop the opponents Pokemon from setting up, I try to get Stealth Rocks out as soon as possible. Focus Sash ensures it survives to do this. Earthquake is to counter Infernape and other ground weak lead-ins, and rock slide is another option. I've chosen Rock Slide over Stone Edge due to it's greater accuracy. Basically, get in, set up rocks, then suicide. [sprite]448[/sprite] Lucario (M) @ Life Orb Ability: Inner Focus EVs: 4 HP/252 Spd/252 SAtk Timid nature (+Spd, -Atk) - Aura Sphere - Shadow Ball - Hidden Power [ice] - Agility Weaknesses: Fighting, Ground, Fire Resists: Normal, Rock, Bug, Ghost, Steel, Grass, Ice, Dragon, Dark Immune: Poison Considering Tyranitar is a physical attacker, I'm making Lucario a special attacker in case of any physical walls. HP Ice is for dragons, which my team lacks coverage of, and the rest is obvious. [sprite]248[/sprite] Tyranitar (M) @ Leftovers Ability: Sand Stream EVs: 74 HP/252 Atk/8 Def/176 SDef Careful nature (+SDef, -SAtk) - Crunch - Curse - Substitute - Fire Punch --- Weaknesses: Fighting (x4!), Ground, Bug, Steel, Grass, Water Resists: Normal, Flying, Poison, Ghost, Fire, Dark Immune: Psychic Switch in on something that's scared of him, use sub, and then curse my way to good attack/defense. Fire punch is for additional team coverage, and crunch is a basic STAB. [sprite]385[/sprite] Jirachi @ Leftovers Ability: Serene Grace EVs: 240 HP/160 Def/34 Spd/76 SDef Impish nature (+Def, -SAtk) - Wish - U-turn - Body Slam - Ice Punch --- Weaknesses: Ground, Fire Resists: Normal, Flying, Rock, Steel, Grass, Psychic, Ice, Dragon Immune: Poison Jirachi is support with wish, scout with U-turn, and status inflicter with Body Slam. He's actually gotten me a few kills with body slam. Ice Punch is for coverage against dragons, or a last resort against ghosts who switch in. [sprite]472[/sprite] Gliscor (M) @ Leftovers Ability: Sand Veil EVs: 252 HP/40 Atk/216 Spd Jolly nature (+Spd, -SAtk) - Swords Dance - Roost - Earthquake - Stone Edge Weaknesses: Water, Ice (x4!) Resists: Fighting, Poison, Bug Immune: Ground, Electric Jolly nature + speed EV's allow it to outspeed Lucario's and smack them with Earthquake. Swords Dance is to boost attack, and with stealth rock, Stone Edge can then OHKO all Gyaradoes, Salamence and Dragonites. I went with Sand Evasion over Hyper Cutter because the 20% evasion was too good to pass up. I also went with leftovers over a yache berry, since proper prediction can nullify my ice weakness with roost. [sprite]395[/sprite] --- King Dedede (M) @ Petaya Berry Ability: Torrent EVs: 14 HP/232 Spd/252 SAtk/12 SDef Modest nature (+SAtk, -Atk) - Agility - Substitute - Surf - Ice Beam --- Weaknesses: Fighting, Ground, Electric Resists: Normal, Flying, Rock, Bug, Ghost, Steel, Water, Psychic, Ice, Dragon, Dark (Niiiiice) Immune: Poison Empoleon is the special sweeper. Use agility, follow with sub until the berry kicks in, and then sweep. Surf is for the STAB, Ice Beam is to handle dragons/flyers. Well, any comments or suggestions? This is my first team, and I would like any pointers since I am new to competitive battling.

Then give him some dragons for the newer generations, it would give people an exciting taste of what they'll be able to get after they beat him and get the National Dex =D Besides, as Champion, it makes sense that he would be able to afford to travel further and catch different Pokemon.

Isn't it normally raining in that route? I thought it was weird running into Ponyta in Pearl.
-
3 dragonites on the champion seem almost overkill. I mean, if you can handle one, you can probably handle the other two.

Hit Ho-Oh. 7.

Mind clarifying on the issues you did and did not like? You can't just say you didn't like the game and then call it a review.

Hit Ho-Oh. I think that's 6 now.

Articuno, Lugia, or Mew. It's so hard to decide.

What were Entei, Suicune and Raikou before they were revived?

Hah, Altered Beast is amazing. I tried to play with my girlfriend a while ago, and she just went "What the hell!?" though =(- 272 replies

Hit Ho-Oh. I believe that's 4 for me now...

The sound of my girlfriends laptop fan. Wheee.

Aqueel replied to Destati's topic in Generation 4
It would be rather random if the trio were the only members of their species, and then were burned to death and raised back to life. It's possible, but it seems unlikely to me. Then again, that would give Ho-Oh more incentive to bring them back.- 272 replies

I don't think it's possible to have a shiny mew. From what I've read, most event Pokemon are impossible to get shiny.

Aqueel replied to Destati's topic in Generation 4
Entei once being an Arcanine makes sense (Arcanine is a demi-legendary already), but Suicine being a Slowking is suspect, Vaporeon would work. I would consider Raikou once being a Jolteon.- 272 replies

Oh, it was a pain, but I would normally have a Gyradoes by the second gym. (Yeah, I used to buy him in R/B) I'd just have him at the front of my party, and then switch over....kill the enemy Poke, switch back to Magikarp....switch back to another....
