good team, but not having your flier on it is going to be annoying (at elast for me it is.) maybe crobat instead of muk?
Umbreon: ;197;
-Dark Pulse
-Psychic
- Moonlight
-Shadow ball
Toxic/Hidden Power [anything not Dark/Ghost/Psychic/Steel/Poison] over Shadow Ball. Dark & Ghost shares similar coverage, so you don't need to have both DP and SB.
Muk: ;089;
-Poison Jab
- Ice Punch
-Pay Back
- Rockslide
(he didn't want explosion because he is using this team in-game)
Just want to say this : Explosion is bad in 5th Gen anyway, no one is using that move anymore.
Metagross: ;376;
-EQ
-Meteor Mash
- Hammer Arm
-Zen Headbutt
Ice Punch over Hammer Arm, for coverage. Fight & Ground shares the same coverage, and it already has EQ which is much better, Hammer Arm is not needed there.
Anyone know of any good speedy special sweepers available ingame, currently lacking one in my team
Thanks
The lack of breeding will make this game very difficult for me due to the fact I will only use well natured Pokemon and EV train as the game progresses...
Overall I find the Pokemon options to be great but availability is lacking... for my overall strategy I will Play black with a team made up of Pokemon that I like found on the regional dex that have got good natures (IV's do not matter for in game teams but I do plan to EV train as soon as possible)
Black options (note this is ideas for my PRIMARY team usually rotate others in at times)
1) Special surf user( Starmie, Hydriegon, Vaporeon, Walrien,)most likely will use starmie as I never really trained one before...(yes really... I've used many water types such as Garydos , golduck, whalelord, walrien, ludicolo, peliper, poliwrath, tentecruel, cloyster..., suicune, palkia... okay i admit I never got around to it.... and Misty's always was so annoying... -_- )
2) physical fly user preferably with stab... (Crobat <3)
3)Offensive coverage(Arcanine(intimidate for traveling in the grass), Flygon<3, Metagross,Heracross)
4)Pokemon catcher [needs to have access to primary status and be a strong fighter(Jolteon, Galvantula, Roserade,)
5)Boosting sweeper(Volcarona, Haxorus, Aggron, Terakion, Lucario, Scolipede, Gliscor)
6)wall(Skarmory, Ferrothorn)
*other Pokemon to train if I get them/ they turn out well ect.* Zorark, Espeon, Azumarill, Steelix, Altaria, Chandelure, Miensho, Gliscor, Drapion, Weezing, Cincino(w/ DW ability only), Magmortar,
Note: a dragon type or two WILL be trained and used as they are my favorite type. Other Pokemon were eliminated by lack of access to daycare, intended use on potential or existing themed team, or sad lack of access at all until post E4... poor Tyranitar Scrafty(daycare) etc...
White will be a themed team that will play on challenge mode all game to be decided later (this team doesn't hold restrictions based on availability, I will breed them and send them over)note to be discussed yet this play through will be delayed until after black is completed for challenge mode access(will start game for events though)
If this can be narrowed down that would be most appreciative. I don't plan on using a starter, but I will be picking Snivy if you want to know...
If I can narrow it down to 10 I might make a move set later...
I shared your thoughts with regards to the day care centre, I also like EV trained teams in-game. If you are open to this, my suggestion is that you send over a bunch of Synchronize Ralts (or any other Synchronize user) with the natures you want: it will allow you to find wild Pokemon for your team with the correct natures, skipping the breeding process (since IVs are being skipped).
fantastic team, very balanced in a lot of aspects. you do have a x3 weakness to fighting, so be wary of something like that. tbh, id rather have espeon on this team then glaceon (itll help with the balance issues), but glaceon will prove to be a worthy teammate come the 7th gym and the elite 4. a word of advice, if you want a glaceon early, you should trade the eevee over to bw, evolve it there, then trade it back, otherwise youll be toting an eevee all the way to the aftergame.For White 2, I'm going to use the following team with the following movesets:
Emboar
Blaze
Any nature not hindering attack
Moveset:
Hammer Arm/Brick Break
Earthquake
Wild Charge/Stone Edge
Flamethrower/Flame Charge/?
Krookodile
Intimidate or Moxie (undecided)
Adamant Nature (hopefully... I'll settle for neutral natures on all of my Pokemon.)
Moveset:
Earthquake
Crunch
Dragon Claw/Outrage
Stone Edge
Glaceon
Snow Cloak
Timid or Modest Nature
Moveset:
Ice Beam
Shadow Ball
Signal Beam
Mirror Coat/Hail/Rest
Sawsbuck
Sap Sipper
Adamant or Jolly(or neutral)
Moveset:
Horn Leech
Return
Jump Kick
Wild Charge
Electivire
Motor Drive
Adamant or Jolly (or neutral)
Moveset:
Wild Charge/Thunderpunch
Ice Punch
Low Sweep/Brick Break
Earthquake
Swanna
Keen Eye or Big Pecks
Modest or Timid (or neutral)
Moveset:
Surf
Air Slash
Ice Beam
Fly
Any suggestions? I'll be posting my future Black 2 team whenever I'm done planning it.
