Oh Lawd, Alakazam and Gengar, two of the biggest, baddest, fastest Special Sweepers in OU on the same team! How will Krug ever overcome such a weakness to Weavile?!
OVERVIEW
The Uncanny Lead
Alakazam@Choice Specs
Timid/Synchronize
4 HP/252 SpA/252 Spe
-Psychic
-Hidden Power Fire
-Signal Beam
-Trick
What happened to Alakazam? He should be called Allah-Kazam because his Spe and SpA are so godly. Anyway, this Alakazam lacks Focus Blast so it can be a more effective lead. I know that may raise Eyebrows, but to Screw over Bronzongs and Metagrosses I need HP Fire. Trick will lock things into Stealth Rock or any other move that's useless on 'Zam. This works very well on LeadGross, Inferape, Azelf, and Bronzong. I haven't tested on Aerodactyl yet, but I'm sure the effect is much the same. Speaking of Azelf, Signal Beam is kept so I can hit it hard, same goes for Weavile. Psychic is there for Leadape. If I run into Heatran then I switch to Moltres, and Stall the thing out.
The Cool Special Sweeper
Gengar@Life Orb
Timid/Levitate
4 HP/252 SpA/252 Spe
-Shadow Ball
-Thunderbolt
-Focus Blast
-Energy Ball
Gengar is the master of Resisting things, I can come in on super common moves, and pound away at whatever unlucky soul Gengar is now facing. Shadow Ball is a powerful attack and all round good stuff. Thunderbolt hits Flyers, but the most important of them being Gyrados. Focus Blast smashes steels and Slower Darks, AKA Tyranitar. Energy Ball is the teams lone Grass Attack, so it's Crucial I come in on an EQ from Swampert to take it out and clear the team of that threat.
Samuel L. Jackson in Pokemon Form
Machamp@Leftovers
Adamant/Guts
252 HP/252 Atk/4 Spe
-Close Combat
-Payback
-Rest
-Sleep Talk
I AM SICK AND TIRED OF THESE MOTHA****IN WEAVILES SWEEPING THIS MOTHA****IN TEAM. The Killer of the First Two's weaknesses, Dark, and Ghost. Gut's boost while asleep, with Close Combat's Base 120 Power, is more Powerful IMO than the 100% Confusion from No Guarded DynamicPunches. Payback hits Ghosts, that takes down enemy Type #2.
Raging Bull
Tauros@ Liechi Berry
Jolly/Intimidate
4 HP/252 Atk/252 Spe
-Return
-Stone Edge
-Earthquake
-Subsitute
SubBerry Boost, wether to use Liechi or Salac is questionable, but Im guessing because I'm going Jolly I should use Liechi. Tauros shouldn't be NU, with massive late game sweeping capabilities. Once the right things are out of the way, Tauros is likely to go on a massacre.
The Fried Chicken
Moltres@Leftovers
Bold/Pressure
252 HP/148 Def/112 Spe
-Flamethrower
-Roost
-Subsitute
-Toxic
Moltres has a big Job as a Staller, as most of my Team is based on quick offense. Moltres is a blazing bird who you switch to when the Going gets Rough, or when Heatran drops in uninvited. His Job? Stall the foe out, by using toxic, and by beating Heatran's moves via resistance and SubRoosting. Moltres's main attack is Toxic on non steels, as it won't ALWAYS be facing a Heatran. Yet, Flamethrower is there for anything that resists the Bird's Poison. This thing can kill Weavile too.
The Not from Kanto guy
Swampert@Leftovers
Impish/Torrent
252 Hp/216 Def/40 SpD
-Earthquake
-Avalanche
-Roar
-Stealth Rock
Wall thing #2. Swampert is a Powerful choice anywhere, especially here. Swampert sets up rocks, hits Dragons, and Roars away stat boosters. He has quite a big job on his hands, so I must be sure to pump EV's into Def so it can live long enough to hit Salamance/Flygon with that all important Avalanche, or Roar them away.
