Competitive Single Rates V2

[Blue Ace]

I need help with this moveset.

Infernape@??
Hasty
-Overheat
-Close Combat
-Shadow claw
-U-turn/Earthquake

Can't decide the item. I also can't decide between U-turn and Earthquake either.

Naive nature, so priority moves wont hurt as much, U-turn and Shadow Claw are fairly redundant

EQ is a bad move to have on fighting types in general since fighting+rock combo suffices for them

as for the item Life Orb or even Choice Band are viable

[Ezra]

152 HP, 252 Atk, 104 Spd (assuming 31 IV)

^ Standard Agiligross spread


Though to be honest I wouldnt recommend using it, its far too easily walled by just about every bulky water out there. Consider a Choice Band, ResTalk or even a Scarf Variant instead

ok, well ive been using a metagross with these moves ...
meteor mash
zen headbutt
bullet punch
eartquake

i find this works really well, so should i just stick with this moveset???item is life orb

 

[otherside]

Consider replacing Zen Headbutt with something else. You already have Meteor Mash for STAB and Psychic is a poor type in terms of coverage. Perhaps Agility (improving your sweeping capabilities), Thunderpunch (deals with Gyarados/Skarmory to an extent. Only if you play ShoddyBattle, hack or your Meta is still on Emerald Version) or Explosion.

 

[Ezra]

i dont play shoddy and apparently aligross is walled easily. i was thinking maybe rock slide for gyarados and levitators? i may be able to get explosion though, a friend has ar, so maybe mmash, earthquake, bullet punch and explosion /rock slide?

 

[otherside]

Does Meta learn Stone Edge? Probably. I can't remember ATM. If so, that's a better option. You get far more power for 5% less accuracy. Otherwise just go with Explode. Guarenteed to hit anything that isn't immune for massive damage.

 

[Annhialator Zero]

You have surf on there so if anything go with a mix attacker or you could have Avalanche, base 90 power after STAB and since Cloyster has horrible speed it wont hurt.

Because being able to kill Yache Chomp AND hit through Substitutes is useless right?

 

[Ezra]

nah it doesnt learn stone edge. so ill see if i can get an exposion from my mate. life orb ok?

 

[otherside]

Life Orb or Leftovers is fine. Depends on whether you want to be more tank or more offensive.

 

[Ezra]

generally my old gross would go out first, but that was packing 252 ev's in defence. i imagine this one is still going out first, but its designed to break the intimidate ect and if necessary take a hit before giving one back. i find life orb works well, as i use gross as more of an attacker than a wall. i have umbreon and rhyperior for walling etc, so itll be a physical attacker. ev's....252 attack obv, adamant nature.
rest in what? def, speed or hp?

Calm Mind baton Passer with Leech Seed based recovery... ?

I find Recover a better form of recovery than Leech Seed because you don't lose it everytime your opponent switches out.

 

[Bouncy_Ferret]

but recover dont hurt the other pokemon so you dont get anywere by using it

Set up Stealth and TSpikes 1-3 times switch out spin if needed, Then Boom!

 

[Frost Nova]

Forry is usually too valuable on a team to just go boom.

Spikes / Gyro Ball / Rapid Spin / Earthquake or Toxic Spikes work fine. Alternatively Zap Cannon can go over Gyro Ball to counter Gyarados.

 

[Flannery]

Another Forry. xD
I need comments and advice.

Forretress@Leftovers
252 HP/252 Def/ 6Atk.
Nature will depend as it's a shiny. I want to use it for a few competitive battles though.

-Spikes
-Earthquake
-Gyro Ball
-Explosion

To be used as a physical wall/Spiker. I'd lay down spikes to start, then either switch out, EQ or Gyro ball.When Forry's about to faint, instead of simply letting it, I'll make it explode. ^^ The extra damage could be useful.

I'd also like to know which Pineco I should use...
I have 3 shiny ones and I was wondering which one I should train.
Their natures are all different, and since there is a huge gap between their IVs, I wanted to pick one by the stats.
Here are their base stats at level 100:
Pineco #1
HP=213
ATK=147
DEF=213
SP.ATK=79
SP.DEF=75
SPEED=52

Pineco #2
HP=225
ATK=159
DEF=203
SP.ATK=115
SP.DEF=89
SPEED=47

Pineco #3
HP=231
ATK=143
DEF=192
SP.ATK=82
SP.DEF=101
SPEED=45

So either Toxic Spikes or Stealth Rock?
If so what should i choose?

 

[Reno]

Toxic Spikes. More or less everything gets Stealth Rock.

Machamp @ Lum Berry

Modest Nature (+Sp.Att, -Att)

I have no clue. I just started building competitive teams, and I find this Spiritomb to be fun to use.
