First Team

[Ditto124]

This is my first Team attempt, so it is probably filled with weaknesses.


Kangaskhan @ Life Orb
252 Attack, 129 HP, 129 Speed
Scrappy
Adamant
-Focus Punch/Drain Punch
-Outrage
-Return
-Earthquake

Mainly used against Spiritomb. This is possibly because scrappy allows Kangaskhan to attack Ghosts with Normal/Fighting attacks. A decent attacker, with a very good HP count.


Weavile @ Expert Belt
252 Attack/ 216 Speed/ 40 HP
Pressure
Jolly
-Ice Punch
-Night Slash
-Pursuit
-Brick Break

Quick and has some pretty good physical attacks. Pursuit for switchers. Pusuit for switchers. Brick Breack, Night Slash, and Ice Punch for some brute strength.


Gengar @ Black Sludge
252 Special Attack/252 Speed/6 HP
Levitate
Modest
-Thunderbolt
-Focus Blast
-Shadow Ball
-Hypnosis

A Special Sweeper that helps with my weakness to fighting types. As well as a sweeper, it has a good speed stat.


Swampert @ Choice Band
240 HP/ 56 Attack/ 212 Defense
Torrent
Impish
-Avalanche
-Earthquake
-Waterfall
-Stone Edge

Strong Physical Sweeper. Also has good HP and Defense Stats.


Roserade @ Big Roots
252 HP/6 Special Defense/ 252 Speed
Natural Cure
Timid
-Sleep Powder
-Leech Seed
-Substitute
-Spikes

A SubSeeder with spikes to protect from the switch out.


Torkoal @ ????
252 Defense/ 129 HP/ 129 Attack
White Smoke
Bold
-Eruption
-Stealth Rock
-Toxic
-Curse

A good physical wall. Toxic the opponent and Stealth Rock for the Switch out. Because of Torkoal's already low speed, Curse doesn't hurt as much as other pokes. Also Eruption to help with the Fire that my Team Lacks. White Smoke protects his stats from his opponents.

Don't be too rough when commenting..

Choice Band > Expert Belt on Weavile, and Night Slash > Aerial Ace.

Dark Pulse + Shadow Ball are pointless together, they hit super effective on the same types. Hypnosis > Dark Pulse.

Swampert - Earthquake / Surf / Ice Beam / Stealth Rock @ Leftovers

Jirachi - Zen Headbutt / Wish / U-Turn / Reflect @ Leftovers, Impish nature

Healing Wish is not a great idea, ever.

 

[The Shadow Trainer]

Gengar needs Psychic or Confuse Ray instead of Dark Pulse. nooblet is right, they hit super effective on same type.
Give Night Slash to Weavile, not Pusuit.
Jirachi: Psychic,Wish,U-Turn, Reflect/Light S.

Psychic / Confuse Ray Gengar is pointless.

Psychic doesn't help you at all. The only thing it actually hurts more then Shadow Ball, and will be somewhat OU, is Weezing, which is 2hko'd by Shadow Ball, and it won't even stay in on you. Heracross, maybe, but Hera is 2hko'd by Shadow Ball if it even tries to switch in, and Psychic doesn't OHKO without Choice Specs anyway.

Confuse Ray on Gengar is pretty much the same as running across a minefield and hoping to still be in one piece if you get to the other side.
