The Last Jedi
Stalling is Cowardly
Hello, I have used this team in a couple of matches so far on Pokemon Showdown; so far I have won 12 out of 24 matches. When I put this team together I at least thought I would win over 50 percent, I now realize I could use help to make it a lot better which is why I am here. I tried to go with a half type team with three of my pokemon benefiting from sunny day, and the other pokemon I have are to better balance out my team. I am open to any kind of suggestions that will help improve my team; I do not really like to use legendary type pokemon even if they are in OU. I will be using this team in matches such as to help my guild and properly make a statement, I will take any input and any help I am given, thank you.

I chose Infernape to be my lead pokemon because he is a dual type fire/fighting type that’s very beneficial with his high attack stat, he has so far not let me down in a match where I needed him. I attached Life Orb to him to help increase damage; I also added the Iron Fist ability to further boost his physical attacks such as close combat and focus blast. Infernape has Earthquake and flamethrower to balance himself out; he has been knocked out a few times but still pulls through when I need him.

I selected Umbreon because he is a great supporter type pokemon to use; also he is one of my all-time favorite Pokemon. I equipped him with Leftovers to help boost recovery and keep him going, I also added Wish to help in his recovery from damage. Swagger I put to confuses the opponent’s pokemon and boost my Foul Play attack, this combo works very well and it is very effective in all of my battles. I have Heal Bell also because I want to be able to recover my pokemon if they are affected with special conditions; Umbreon provides me with a supporter type and can attack if it needs too.

I picked Ninetails because in my opinion it is power with its special attack stat, I put her in my squad to relief pressure off Infernape and give me a real powerful fire type. I added the ability drought to bring sunny day into play without losing a turn, with this in play it can start boosting all of its fire attacks such as flamethrower and Fire Blast. I have further its attacks by adding the item Wise Glasses to boost accuracy, Solarbeam and Substitute are used to stall for attack and to wipe out ground/rock types.

I have Cloyster in my squad to have that dual type water/ice on my side in battle to keep things balanced; I fitted Cloyster with the Skill Link ability to bring out the best in my Icicle Spear attack as well as Rocky Helmet to inflict damage. Toxic spikes are used to poison and give me an advantage on my opponent’s pokemon switching out; I usually make this move first to start the match. Hydro pump I use to takeout those who are weak to water type attacks, Aqua Ring is in there as well to help boost the HP recovery and keep it going.

Hydreigon is the strongest Pokemon on my team which is why I gave him Dragon Fang to boost his attacks, his levitate ability is especially beneficial to him since he is a dark type which is weak to ground types. Crunch I use for annoying Ghost and Psychic types, as in focus Blast I use on those that are weak to this move. Outrage is one powerful of a dragon type attack so it’s his main attack, Dragon Tail I use to switch pokemon to nullify there stat changes in battles.

I have Venusaur in my lineup to have that strong Grass type pokemon to use; I equipped him with Quick Claw to ensure it can go first. Chlorophyll I use while sunny day is out to heal and with sunny day available I can use Solarbeam a turn ahead, Earthquake is another move I gave it just in case I face off against a fire type or strong ice type. Sleep powder helps me stall for recovery time and when I use Leech Seed it further boosts my healing powers, this combination of moves has so far proven to be effective but can be flawed if not used first.
