My future battle subway team

Hi there, i am a old forum user, who has not logged on in a very long time.

I am currently trying to create a good battle subway team, so here is what i was thinking. I have yet to get any BP, so No choice items/life orbs/focus sash - yet.


Haxorus@Lum Berry - Jolly
252 Atk/252 Spd/6 HP
Outrage/Dragon Claw
Earthquake
Rock Slide
Dragon Dance

My physical sweeper. It has a very powerful STAB, and has A QuakeEdge (of some kind...), plus a reliable boosting move, raising its OK speed, and it's already high attack. This thing is a monster. This pokemon has been bred, but not ev trained, so I could breed a new one, if needed.


Volcarona@Fire Gem - Modest
252 SAtk/252 Spd/6 SDef
Quiver Dance
Bug Buzz
Flame Dance/Flamethrower
Hidden Power [Dragon]

My special sweeper. It has very strong dual STABs, and one of the best boosting moves in the game. I decided to go with a Dragon-type hidden power, for at least neutral coverage with flamethrower/Flame Dance. Fire Gem is for a very hard hit. This has already been bred and ev trained. I would prefer to not start over.

Rotom-W@Leftovers - Modest
252 SAtk/252 Spd/6 HP
Hydro Pump
Volt Switch
Will-O-Wisp
Hidden Power [Ice]

My bulky sweeper. It has some BoltBeam going on, Will-O-Wisp for those tough physical attackers that volcarona might have trouble with, and Hydro Pump for Fire Types that try to get in the way. What does this guy not have?



So, that's my team that i would like to use. Sadly, I do not have access to 4th generation games. So, I can not get a Pain Split Rotom.

Thanks ahead of time,
Pokesid11~

Constructive Criticism, start now!

This team need a wall :p
Ferrothorn @ chesto berry
Ability: iron barbs
Nature: careful
EVs: 252 HP, 126 Def, 132 SpD
-t wave
-flash
-rest
-iron head
T wave to paralyze. 6 flashes minimizes accuracy. Rest if HP gets low. Switch, set up with other sweepers, then sweep. Iron head for taunters. :)

I would think HP eletric would be better for Volcarona, but if you can't do that then Dragon could be useful. Also Dragon Claw is better, just in case you don't OHKO every pokemon (which you won't with steel types obviously) you can switch up to EQ/Slide and not have to worry about confusion.

As far as pokemon used, it looks good from here, pretty nice mixture.

@bigman82
I'm not the biggest defensive pokemon fan. I might consider using a ferrothorn in a diiferent team, but Most of my sweepers weakness' are covered by Rotom-W. The weakness my sweepers have are:

Haxorus
Ice x2
Dragon x2

Volcarona
Water x2
Flying x2
Rock x4

And rotom resists...
Ice
Water
Flying

And with pretty good defenses, i can take a hit or two.


@unstopable373 I got this volcarona with a Hidden Power Dragon with a Base Power of 63 or 64. And his ivs are..
HP/ATK/DEF/SPA/SPD/SPE
30/21/31/31/31/28

I thought i got pretty good ivs, and a reasonable hidden power. I decided to not do anything different breeding wise.

Thanks for the tips, anyone else have some?
