(14:58:25) ±Porygon: Your rank in Wifi NU is 292/10666 [1154 points / 33 battles]! That's the peak that this team has brought me to on the PO server (so far ), and honestly. That's the best I've ever done. I really never thought I would do good in NU, but here I am climbing the ladder. and this is still a test team! I was hoping I can get some constructive criticism, thoughts, comments, and suggestions and whatnot from this. So here's the team! At a Glance: Here's a closer look! Reiji (Serperior) (M) @ Leftovers Trait: Overgrow EVs: 252 HP / 184 Def / 72 Spd Bold Nature (+Def, -Atk) - Glare - Taunt - Giga Drain - Leech Seed Reiji the Serperior is my sort of lead, but really my support. I usually lead with Monferno in team preview, but then I whip this guy out and it can just cripple and cripple. Glare is the real crippler, slowing down any sweepers that think they can set up on it. Taunt is used to prevent set-ups, or prevent entry hazards. Giga Drain is the STAB move of choice and helps Serperior recover HP. Leech Seed is another crippling move that benefits in draining the opponent. UFO (Beheeyem) (F) @ Choice Specs Trait: Analytic EVs: 252 HP / 4 Def / 252 SAtk Modest Nature (+SAtk, -Atk) - Psychic - Thunderbolt - Signal Beam - Hidden Power [Ground] I never really knew how powerful this Pokemon was until I tried it out. Before the UFO, I had a CM Musharna, and it definitely can not accomplish as much as Beheeyem. With Analytic, Choice Specs and a Modest nature, her power SKYROCKETS. A STAB Psychic will OHKO almost anything that doesn't resist it. The other moves provide Beheeyem with excellent other offensive options. On the PO server where Bisharp is oddly NU, people tend to switch in to Bisharp on it. However, it is easily brought down by either HP Ground or Tbolt. Samurai Jack (Samurott) (M) @ Life Orb Trait: Torrent EVs: 4 Def / 252 SAtk / 252 Spd Timid Nature (+Spd, -Atk) - Hydro Pump - Ice Beam - Hidden Power [Grass] - Substitute This is my second Special Sweeper. Samurai Jack does some pretty solid work. Putting Samurott in during a safe switch opportunity is really good. Samurott forces out switches very often, letting me get a free substitute. Hydro Pump is the very powerful STAB move of choice, and the other two attacking moves provide really good coverage. Plus, Substituting to Torrent range makes Hydro Pump almost unstoppable. BabyKang (Marowak) (M) @ Thick Club Trait: Rock Head EVs: 4 HP / 252 Atk / 252 Spd Adamant Nature (+Atk, -SAtk) - Stealth Rock - Bonemerang - Stone Edge - Double-Edge By the way, the nickname behind this set is due to the theory that Cubone was originally a baby Kangaskhan. Anywho, back to the set. Another pokemon forcing switch-ins is Marowak. He is able to get Stealth Rocks up and is a very powerful pokemon. Thick Club lets Marowak's attack soar sky high. Bonemerang breaks them really annoying subs. Double-Edge is a way to take advantage of Rock Head and Stone Edge takes care of Flying types. DiscoInferno (Monferno) (M) @ Choice Band Trait: Iron Fist EVs: 4 HP / 252 Atk / 252 Spd Adamant Nature (+Atk, -SAtk) - Mach Punch - Close Combat - Flare Blitz - U-turn Meet little Infernape. Just with a different approach. This set is just... a monstrosity. STAB, Iron Fist boosted Mach Punch makes Monferno a great revenge killer. Close Combat is another STAB move that's a better option for situations where I don't need the priority. STAB Flare Blitz just obliterates, with the cost of recoil. Monferno can also be a Scout with U-turn and rack damage as well. Pregnant Lady (Kangaskhan) (F) @ Leftovers Trait: Scrappy EVs: 4 HP / 252 Atk / 252 Spd Jolly Nature (+Spd, -SAtk) - Substitute - Focus Punch - Disable - Return Last and possibly the MVP of this team; KANGASKHAN! THE PREGNANT WOMAN! Scrappy lets Kangaskhan hit Ghost types with it's STAB Return. What Kangaskhan does is switch-in on a harmless pokemon and substitute. This lets her easily Focus Punch OR hit the opposing Pokemon with Return. Kangaskhan has come up clutch so many times, and even performed a 6-0 Sweep during my first battle with it! That should be all for now. Hope you enjoyed, and like I said before. Hope to get some good responses. Here is an importable version of the team for those who want to "test" it

and I'll upload more They're... eh. Hope you like them!

Yeah I will :] Okay, but for this team... I don't think I will use that strategy for this team

Yeah I think I want to start a goal to this team, the supporting the one pokemon one... I don't know who to support it around though.. EDIT: I was thinking Bisharp.. It looks like a Dark, UU version of Lucario Maybe something like this?: Bisharp @ Leftovers Defiant Adamant 252 HP / 252 ATK / 4 Speed -Swords Dance -Brick Break -Night Slash -Sucker Punch ?

Hmmm... wow I guess I have a lot to think about.. Ahh this is hard So your kinda suggesting I pick a UU Sweeper or any special pokemon that can damage most of the UU Pokemon out there and kinda base it around that?

Ahhh I see what you mean. I think imma go with something like this: Houndoom @ Life Orb Flash Fire Hasty 252 Atk / 12 SpA / 244 Spe Pursuit Over Heat Sucker Punch Hidden Power Grass Does that seem right? Also for your "XYZ" method, it seems interesting... Do you think you could show me more examples or something, cause I am kinda poor at making movesets and I kinda always wanted to make a team using only original movesets. Thanks Bird!

Wow, that's a lot! lol thanks for noticing my thread and umm I am very much thinking about the hitmontop suggestion! I like it a lot and for the Houndoom... You suggest a choice band if I understand right? Well.. Being his 90 attack and his 110 Sp. A, is that good? Do you think it could do enough?

Okay I guess I came up with a small strategy. Ambipom uses Fake Out. Either kill the opponent with a boosted Acrobatics or Low Sweep OR if Ambipom is faster, U-Turn to Xatu on someone who will set up or just switch to Xatu. Xatu reflects things and could paralyze them. Then I can switch/U-Turn Xatu out to either Houndoom or Quagsire depending on the opponent. The paralyze will either make the opponent switch or stun them for a turn, letting me able to set up Curse/Nasty Plot. If they fail, I can come in with a late game sweep from a Choiced Physical (Flygon) or a Choiced Special (Yanmega)!

I read the thread that said "[GUIDE]" or something and I understood it and all, but its just... I don't think this team has a "Goal"

Ahh yes, Marriland team builder. I used that before but not for this team. Normal and water... Yeah I see why I should be scared of those I guess but idk. The goal of this team? Well... Not much besides switch ins and things like that. I wanted to defenders and then the rest attackers. But other than that, i think its balanced... not sure

Wraith, your a RMT GOD! lol Okay, for your lead comments I say that ambipom will still work. First, I use Fake Out all the time (Unless its ghost) and it just dishes damage at first. If the opponent switches to hitmontop, I either risk an Acrobatics without a mach punch or switch to Xatu or Yanmega who can resist fighting like gods and counter it. Yanmega is probably better for speed and Air Slash but yeah. As you said, my Houndoom is very reliant on no rocks/spikes. And your idea of your houndoom makes more sense so thanks for that! I'll test him out soon and let you know results. Same as you, I have no idea who I would replace for a spinner. http://www.smogon.com/bw/tiers/uu <- those are the UU Pokemon but anyways Mew, Shaymin (Normal) and Victini are the only ones of the legendaries your talking about. As for Victini murduring me, 3 of my pokemon resist fire and 3 of my pokemon resist psychic. for Grass, there are 4 resistants. But yes, I guess they might be threats. Although I have tested the team MANY times, i haven't found an exact weakness... Thanks though! I'll test suggestions later
