Project What's Their Last?
- Thread starter Holiday
- Start date
trapinch :}
I will update the OP when I get home, but Corporal Levi and his Trapinch won. As far as the actual last, I did just rip the team from Star. (sorry I realized it wasn't mine when you posted) and the real last was Chinchou!
You guys can submit me a team on the forums, otherwise I'm using one of mine.

Week 2 (submitted by Coconut.)
This team revolves around having a powerful sweeper in Fletchling and having switch-ins to things that threaten it. Hippopotas is a bulky stealth rock setter that soft checks multiple things. Mienfoo is a fast pivot that allows forces switches and doubles. Skrelp can also check multiple things and do lots of damage. Scarf Shellder is meant to be a surprise as it a fast surprise and hits things with a surprising amount of power.

Ferroseed @ Eviolite
Level: 5
Ability: Iron Barbs
EVs: 84 HP / 36 Atk / 188 Def / 148 SpD / 36 Spe
Careful Nature
- Bullet Seed
- Spikes
- Thunder Wave
- Knock Off
Most chinchou weak team i've ever seen, especially the rest talk set which beats everything. Ferroseed provides a counter to Chinchou and spikes so the u-turn core of the team works better.

Well, the first thing that jumps out at me is the lack of Rapid Spin or Defog (though with taunt on Mienfoo and only one rock weakness it's probably not a huge priority.) It's also really weak to Chinchou (as noted above). Therefore, you obviously need a Seedot to comple- I'M SORRY PLEASE DON'T LYNCH ME.
Lileep @ Eviolite

Level: 5
EVs: 188 HP / 140 Def / 28 SpA / 140 SpD / 12 Spe
Calm Nature
- Stealth Rock
- Giga Drain
- Recover
- Ancient Power
This mon provides similar assistance to Ferroseed, but it also has good synergy with Hippotas, since water moves are generally what people seem to use if they don't have a Snivy. Again, I don't think this team really needs to be able to get rid of hazards that urgently.
But seriously tho, Seedot completes the team perfectly.

So yeah, its a pretty chinchou weak team and foongus deals with that pretty well. Foongus also makes a nice regen core with Mienfoo and can spore things that are annoying to the fletch sweep. Just in general a great mon that deals with annoying stuff to fletchling like rock and steel types. Hp fire is for ferroseed which is pretty annoying to this team.

This doesn't take a week.
One more day for submissions, post them :(( we have two so far
Because you asked.
Snivy @ Eviolite
Level: 5
Ability: Contrary
EVs: 240 SpA / 252 Spe
Timid Nature
- Leaf Storm
- Glare
- Synthesis
- Hidden Power Flying
Snivy can check Chinchou. Unless it's 17 speed LO/Specs Blizzard. Don't send Snivy into that. It also has Glare which is fairly nice for this team since it's a form of speed control other than tailwind to help Skrelp. It's also a sweeper in its own right if Fletchling switches into Stealth Rock a few times. It also checks Chinchou.
It also pairs well with Skrelp, who can take on Ponyta fairly well due to RestTalk. This set could be changed to HP Fire, but 17 speed is nice for Chinchou.

Lileep, that team is very weak to fletching but I think that earth power / toxic > steal rock. Idk why double SR.

ferro. i never get here early enough to get the good ones =(
Lileep
Abra/Fletch/Chou are pretty glaring problems. Ferro isn't the best fit because Overheat SD Fletch can murder this team.
I don't understand why Shellder is even on this team because the team already have a revenge killer but needs to patch up its weaknesses vs super common mons. Imo it seems super unnecessary on this team and could have been replaced by something like Vullaby (BIRDS THO)

For the record, yes, my suggestion was kinda derpy looking at it. It was late at night and I completely forgot to edit it. I'll leave it in tho.
sorry everyone, I've been sick and busy :(
congrats to fitzy72 for winning this week with his ferroseed nomination. The actual last was Aipom (ask Coconut don't ask me)
Week 3
The team is built around CM Spritzee and supporting it to get a sweep late game. Timburr forgoes Bulk Up for Poison Jab to lure Cottonee and other Spritzee, which typically allows Timburr to abuse Drain Punch and Knock Off more effectively in a match. Scarf Pawniard is a great revenge killer and sweeper in its own right should bulky Fighting types are taken out, which Psychic Porygon and Spritzee do. Recycle Mag is a solid stop to sweepers, and Twave Porygon give the team speed control, which is helpful since the team is quite slow.

Spin for mag is important, but most of the team hates spikes. Also makes Dril a null threat unless LO or scarf. Gives some extra speed, and counters pony which is important. Gives coverage vs Gunk too.
