Hey guys. I'm making this RMT for a handful of players who were interested during a recent tour that I won. I've won a total of three tournaments with this team and usually sit comfortably at high 1600s. It is very stall, but with a pink twist! Pink Trap, as the name suggests, has pokemon who trap and are pink.
Team building process:
The theme came from the days when I used Shedinja in BW. In order to keep the zombie-bug alive, I used Dugtrio and Goth to trap the weatherers, my own Politoed for a neutral weather and then used Defog when it was introduced this gen.
Since the weather mechanics have changed and megas became in vogue, I have since concentrated on using stall while being a tad different.

Iago (Skarmory) (M) @ Shed Shell
Ability: Sturdy
EVs: 252 HP / 252 Def / 4 Spe
Bold Nature
IVs: 0 Atk
- Defog
- Roost
- Counter
- Whirlwind
Skarmory is part of my defensive core. Its main jobs are to take physical hits, phaze and defog. Counter is there for Bisharp and mons who swords dance. Thanks to Skarm's ability, countering at the right time will guarantee a KO on most Phys attackers. The element of surprise is key.
Tink (Clefable) @ Leftovers
Ability: Unaware
EVs: 252 HP / 242 Def / 14 SpD
Relaxed Nature
- Moonblast
- Meteor Mash
- Wish
- Protect
Clefable is usually the mon I'm most ok with sacking. Meteor Mash is there to 2hko Mega Diance, which is wonderful. Thanks to Unaware, even if Mega Diance had a +1 defense from Diamond Storm, the boost is ignored while MM potentially gains a +1 attack. MM blows big chunks on lots of fairies and is great for surprises.
Keep up the facade of having Magic Guard as long as possible. Wish is great for keeping Wobb healthy, giving the blue monster more chances to trap.
Defensive Unaware Clef with Wish/Protect helps with scouting Mixed Attackers Skarm or M.Sab usually have trouble with, such as Life Orb Ky-Blk.
Humpty Dump (Blissey) (F) @ Shed Shell
Ability: Natural Cure
EVs: 248 HP / 252 Def / 8 SpD
Bold Nature
IVs: 0 Atk
- Soft-Boiled
- Seismic Toss
- Stealth Rock
- Heal Bell
Blissey is an odd choice at first, but with the abundance of Knock Off, she seemed like a better pick. This pink blob acts like most pink blobs, however the Shed Shell allows me to escape trappers, most notably Goth and Magma Storm Heatran. Due to the rise in cores, Magma Storm really rains on my parade (lolpuns). With Shell, it allows me to scout and switch out to something more appropriate, such as my own Goth. With good prediction, I can at least avoid Heatran's taunt spam and trick a scarf onto it, in which case Wobb will 1hko.
Heal Bell is used when M. Sab is burned by scalds or plumes and wakes up Resting Goth.

Wobbufet is an interesting secret weapon and great Mega Slayer. Thanks to double Shadow Tag, Wobb does not fear encoring pokemon who set-up. Swords dancers in particular who don't resist dark are easily OHKO'd by Goth's Foul Play, or phazed out by Skarmory, or handled by Unaware Clefable.
Wobb can't switch in without taking massive blows, but in some instances, that'll be an advantage. Sometimes, you WANT stealth rocks set up on your side of the field in order to inch Wobb's health oh-so-slightly to the red zone. This activates Custap Destiny Bond.
Wobb loves coming in on Mega Lopunny and other physical attackers who don't have SE moves.

IVs: 0 Atk
- Taunt
- Recover
- Snarl
- Will-O-Wisp
This anti-fairy is usually my lead in order to bounce back EH. Snarl and WoW cause a lot of confusion neutering both sides of the attacking spectrum. Taunt is here for Baton Pass. Keep in mind, you wont want to Mega evolve versus baton pass chains. Priority taunt is great. Note that snarl hits behind substitutes and the drops are baton passable. Be wary of spamming Snarl as Contrary and Defiant mons will quickly become a problem.

Ability: Shadow Tag

Timid Nature
IVs: 0 Atk
- Psyshock
- Foul Play
- Rest
- Trick
You want to Trick Clefables and other pokemon who give M. Sab issues. This includes Heatran, Gliscor and Slowbro. Foul Play is great for Swords Dance mons such as Excadrill and Talonflame (after it has been encored). In general, this set is under appreciated and easily the most evil thing to happen to walls. The max HP is needed to survive pursuits.
Many of my losses come from unfortunate critical hits or flinches.
Zero IVs in attack to reduce the damage from confusion.
