Just a little something different for the BT. No actual
expectations for this, it sounds fun though. Right? ^^'

Kecleon @ Choice Scarf
Impish Nature
252 HP/252 Def/6 Spe
*Color Change*
~ Trick
~ Flash
~ Recover
~ Thunder Wave

Color Change could give him a resistance to the attack
he's hit with, depending on the type. Recover lets him
live to Flash again and TWave negates the scarf. Max
HP/Def was chosen because, well, he's slow and already
has great SpD (still higher than his Def with the investment).

Shuckle @ Leftovers
Adamant Nature
252 Atk/252 HP/6 Spe
*Sturdy*
~ Substitute
~ Rock Slide
~ Earthquake
~ Acupressure

I hear your lol's, and I don't care. This little guy hasn't failed
me yet. Everything is pretty easy to figure out, so I'll just
leave it at that.

Toxicroak @ Black Sludge
Timid Nature
252 SpA/252 Spe/6 HP
*Dry Skin*
~ Substitute
~ Nasty Plot
~ Dark Pulse
~ Vacuum Wave

Basically a filler, although he does resist 2/3 of Shuckle's
weaknesses, and Kecleon's original weakness. Moveset
here is also self-explanatory, so... Yea.

There ya go, rate away.​

Awesome team, I love it. However, there are some major threats:

856 | Gallade | Adamant | Scope Lens | Psycho Cut | Close Combat | Leaf Blade | Night Slash | Atk/SpD

Basically, he OHKOs Kecleon with CC before you have a chance to Trick the Scarf. You're in a similar situation with at least Infernape, Lucario and Heracross; a minor Spe investment will solve the problem for Hera and Gallade, though. Here are some sets that will cause problems:

560 | Heracross | Adamant | Scope Lens | Close Combat | Aerial Ace | Night Slash | Bulk Up | Atk/SpD

361 | Infernape | Jolly | Coba Berry | Close Combat | Fire Punch | U-turn | Fake Out | Atk/Spe

769 | Infernape | Jolly | King's Rock | Flare Blitz | Close Combat | Earthquake | ThunderPunch | Atk/Spe

731 | Lucario | Adamant | Muscle Band | Close Combat | Earthquake | Blaze Kick | Shadow Claw | Atk/Spe

etc, etc. And that's just me using the Find command for Close Combat in V4E's Database.

Sorry for pointing out the problems without really solving anything.

No worries dude, this was more of a fun idea than an
actual plan for taking on the tower. ^^

I did some calcs, and there's no way I'm gonna
outspeed most of those without switching to a
+ Spe nature anyway.

I feel like Slowbro could fit this team better thenn Toxicroak.
It resists Steel and Water, and has neutral damage from Rock attacks.
It could easily absorb a Close Combat. Only thing you've got to do is make sure they will get tricked before Kecleon dies.

I suggest a Calm Mind/Iron Defense (wow, just like my Lucario o.o) one:
• Slowbro @ ... meh. Quick Claw?
• Own Tempo
• Impish nature (+def, -spatk), 252 HP / 168 SpAtk / 84 Def
- Calm Mind
- Iron Defense
- Slack Off / Substitute
- Flamethrower

The reason why I putted in Flamethrower is because Surf is walled by Water Absorbers and Psychic by dark types, and well, Fire is the best offensive type move.

Noooo use a Muk!!!

Muk @ Black Sludge
Ability: Sticky Hold
Nature: Impish
EVs: 140 HP/ 248 Def/ 120 SpD
-ThunderPunch
-Ice Punch
-Payback
-Curse

Haha ok, there's no real reason for you to use Muk. -___- I got bored. Seriously though, if it's just for fun, then anything works. Though, what's your reason for Black Sludge? Can a Toxicroak without defensive EVs live long enough to make use of Black Sludge?

@ YOOMTAH: That is a good idea, but I like having
the water immunity, not to mention STAB priority.
But thanks for the rate. ^^

@ Kerech: Black Sludge is mainly there to heal the
HP that Sub takes away while he's setting up on
a status move/weaker resisted attack.

Shinigami...CHOP!
Ah, completely missed Sub *facepalm* alright, good stuff on the team though. I make my leave once again.....

Bahaha shuckle. Crushing him is like crushing an egg, very difficult with brute force.

Kecleon hax? fun.

And Toxicroak ought to make a decent sweeper, but he's really the only offense you have. Kecleon creates enemy hindrance, and Shuckle, while you're maximising Attack, won't do very much to kill. If Toxicroak ever runs into anything it can't super-effect, you'll have to hope Accupressure gets lucky...a lot.
