Your new raindance team has literally 2 physical moves . There are a lot of specially defensive pokemon that you won't even be able to tt even be able to touch. Any specially defensive toxic staller completely ruins the new team. As it stands, turn kingdra into a DD sweeper so you have some physical power going. Gorebyss isn't doing anything that say ludicolo or Floatzel aren't doing so you can replace her with someone who has better coverage. And you never want a rest talker on a rain dance team. Rain dance give you 5 - 8 turns to rip holes into the opponent. Once the rain is gone, all you have is a team of faily frail water pokemon, so don't waste your turns using rest-talk. If you want a defensive pokemon there, go the swampert route, so that you can have a general wall and someone who can take the electric attacks. Something like RD/Hydro Pump/EQ/Yawn(or roar) could work really well. Also, you are going to have a real problem against any team that utilises toxic spikes, so you either need a rapid spinner somewhere, or a poison type. Nidoking Provides an excellent -out-of-nowehere mixed sweeper, Qwilfish works amazing in the rain and provides your team a great physical sweeper, toxicroak can utilise the rain with dry skin and become an amazing sub puncher, SD OR NP sweeper, hell he can be ran like Mixape if you so choose, with NP (or SD)/Cross Chop (or vacuum wave) / Dark Pulse (or Sucker Punch)/ Sludge Bomb (or HP Ice/ or Ice Punch/ Or stone edge). Infact I really reccommend Toxicroak on your team, It's very very versatile and provides your team with some coverage that it otherwise Lacked. On the Rapid Spin front, you have Kabutops who is probably the most devistating RD SD sweeper. Was there anything particularly wrong with the old team? .

Send a PM to one of the supermoderators or administrators. But think about it first, do you really wanna delete it?

Welcome to the site, Raven . I can see from your post on the music thread that we're going to get a long just fine haha. Hope to see you around (the competitive battling forums... or shoddy ) Enjoy your stay

^ ^ ^ I've not heard that in years ... hell of a cover Clear Enough? - Mammal ♪Have I painted a portrait or picture that's clear enough♪

I like it Fancy posting the EVs though? (and pssst you don't need to use tags to get the sprites, you can type in [sprite]POKEDEXNUMBER[/*sprite] without the *. Or [hgsssprite]POKEDEXNUMBER[/*hgsssprite]. For shiny ones, just do [*shinysprite]POKEDEXNUMBER[*/shinysprite]. You can also do icons and overworld sprites with icon instead of sprite and OVRSPRITE)

[HGSSSPRITE]047[/HGSSSPRITE] Sub-Liechi Sweeper Parasect (M) @ Liechi Berry Ability: Dry Skin EVs: 252 Atk/4 Def/252 Spd Jolly nature (+Spd, -SAtk) - X-Scissor/ Bug Bite - Substitute - Agility - Brick Break/ Aerial Ace --- Most viable in UU really. And even then it doesn't stand a great chance. Sub down till Liechi is activated, grabbing an agility on the way. Putting Parasect at a grand total of 433 Atk and 348 Speed. Best on teams that can lay multiple entry hazards and don't mind having parasect dragging them down. Best bet is to come in on a slowbro's Surf and hope for the best . Can work on rain dance teams with the dry skin ability allowing it to make more subs if need be. It's two points shy of outrunning positive base 100's so Twave support may be necessary too . X scissor is primary stab, depending on who you want to hit, fliers or steals, Brick break or aerial ace are secondary options. Similarly swords dance salac can work too, sacrificing speed for power.

The fact is having to pack a rapid spinner means giving up a spot on the team, as you know. Limited pokemon get rapid spin and a lot of them do suck. Doing well isn't the issue, it's the fact that it replaces an otherwise useful or preferred pokemon on a team. Obviously, we have to take the good with the bad to get a stable metagame. And as for your comment about UU/BLs Being able to beat a team of OUs. Yes that is true, but don't forget Overused pokemon are overused for a reason... not because they could well taste nice on a sandwiche, or even go well with the furniture in the room, but because they are in most cases very good pokemon; and the inverse can be said about UU. If a team of UU's has no problem against a team of OU's then tiers wouldn't exist at all. So IMO not all that arbitrary at all. And as for not narrowing anything down? Tell that to Articuno and Regice, two of the most dominating special walls before SR was introduced. When was the last time you saw either of those? Change your attitude dude, you coming here telling people they suck doesn't change the fact that they don't like that they have to use a spinner. I'm sure even you can agree that it's stupid having to have to pack a spinner for someone who you'd want to be a wall on your team.

Naive nature with: HP - 31 Atk - 30 Def - 31 SpAtk - 30 SpDef - 31 Speed - 31 Would be perfectly legal On magnezone that is. The nature can and often does affect this, such as in a lot of legendaries (Took me hours to get HP Fighting on my Azelf because of this ) However in this particular circumstance it does not effect it.

Gengar can still be cool. Psychic as a move lost its prowess in the second gen. However, Thunderbolt - Psychic - hypnosis and I believe it gets the elemtal punches, so Ice Punch Would work rather nicely. Shadow ball though it packs stab really isn't worth it .

Welcome to the forum... Quirky . I am a brit, also... but tea sucks. I am, however, all for crumpets ;D. As you admin elsewhere I'm sure you're no stranger to how the forums work and all that, but just in case there are any difference make sure to have a read of the rules here. I hope you enjoy your stay... and maybe pop over to the Project Pokémon Shoddy Server... I'm getting lonely.
