hello smogon community this is my first rmt and im a little excited. Now my team is mostly sets that are uncommon or never used as far as ive seen and some pokemon ive been able to give a little niche.
Flareon@choice band
252 atk/252 speed evs)adamant) flash fire
-bite
-return
-quick attack
-fire fang
Alright, now i know what your thinking "your insane a physical Flareon is horrible" you would actualy be suprised. It seems to me that he has great potential and his movepool isnt as bad as you would think. Fire Fang and Bite are almost unresisted as far as i know and i think it can put a dent in alot of pokemon. Return is his strongest option outside super bite and fire fang and quick attack is for priority against weakened foes.
Floatzel@ choice band
252 atk/252 speed evs)adamant)swift swim
-crunch
-ice fang
-waterfall
-aqua jet
This guy i rarely see. He has a monstrous speed with decent attack that most people dont take advatage of because of newer choices like SubBulk Up braviary. With this move set this guy has superb coverage and can hit pretty decent with aqua jet as its priority falling at a 60 base power do to STAB.
Grovyle@ focus sash
252 atk/252 speed)adamant)lvl 16
-endeaver
-quick attack
-protect/detect
-toxic
This is a pokemon i found a niche for with ratatata and aron as a endeaver suicide. This set is no where near perfect because of the ghost types being immune to both the quick attack and endeaver leftover and other hp restoring items and moves aswell as pokemon that have their own priority moves but over all it can take a trainer by suprise. Protect can be used for scouting and toxic can be used of course to put a timer on pokemon that are immune to endeaver and if you just dont think its worth it.
Ramapardos@ choice scarf
252 atk/ 252speed)adamant) mold breaker
-stone edge/ head smash
-earthquake
-crunch
-zenheadbut
Yes.he has a choice scarf for that little extra speed. Im not sure if im willing to let him take the recoil from head smash or just lose some power and accuracy so i wont take recoil. The earthquake and crunch are for coverage and zenheadbut is there for hitting phycics who resist all but earthquake on this set. i use adamant to max attack over jolly because i dont want to sacrafice to much power.
Now im missing a few things a defensive pivot and a rapid spinner. I was wondering if it was neccesary to have these two and wondered if i should just go for choice users or Lo users. Then i thought i could have a power house AND a rapid spinner in Torkoal!
Torkoal@ white herb
128 atk/128 spatk/252 speed) ???
-earthquake
-fire blast
-shell smash
-rapid spin
I know this is wierd. I have soem points in Physical and some in Special attack but thats because i dont have access to B/W2 so.... no earth power. I wish i did but i dont so im a little both ways which can be a good or bad thing because now i can go against physical and special walls but with considerably less damage.
Now im looking at my team agian. Torkoal has got my rapid spin problem down, but i releized i had a major weakness to water except grovyle and floatzel where grovyle wont matter period and floatzel is kinda frail so i needed a great defensive wall that also solves my water type problem. SO i thought about it and decided on Amoongus
Amoongus@ black sludge
252 def/252 hp) bold) effect spore
-giga drain
-clear smog
-toxic/synthesis
-spore
Amoongus goes great member of this team resisting water types which does the most and hitting back with a powerful giga drain to heal off the damage. He has spore which is pretty much a staple and clear smog to mess with set up sweepers. I dont know if im going to use toxic or synthesis yet. Toxic sets a timer on alot of pokemon laking a team member or laking heal bell itself or rest but synthesis allows instant recovery.
So thats my team i hope you like it as much as i do and i cant wait to here your responses
