Ello everyone at Serebii. I'm new and I could use some final opinions on my team before I start going on Wi-Fi. The problem is I have 7 pokemon that I have specially trained for online battle and im having a tough time picking the 6 I want to use. And I havent really decided what items I should use on certain pokemon. Some help would be appreciated. Thanks.

Note: This is also for competitive online play eventually so I could use some very intense critiquing (Sorry in wrong part of forum oh well :\ )

I don't really like to be a copycat, but Weavile and Blissey are effective. So, yeah.

Tell me what you think compared to my other team. I could really use some help... lol

 

[SHUCKLE MAN]

I think you should ditch Shuckle, and use the other 6 for you team (Yes, I do know this is coming from a user named SHUCKLE MAN).

As for items

Weavile-Expert Belt
Blissey-Leftovers
Gengar-Leftovers/Choice Specs/Scarf/Expert Belt (just not Choice Band)
Poliwrath-Salac Berry
Dragonite-Leftovers
Shuckle-Leftovers
Ninetales-Leftovers

If you are stuck with an item for a Poke, its usually best to give it leftovers.

And Ninetales gets Energy Ball.

 

[Mega Typhlosion]

That's a very nice team.

Get Choice Specs on Gengar. Choice Band does nothing useful to that moves.

Confuse Ray works better with Toxic since Will-o-wisp cuts the opponent's attack in half, as well as the damage it does itself.

Shuckle should get an attacking move, because a Steel or Poison-type simply wall it completely. Try Earthquake over Safeguard or Protect. Double Team can be useful too.

I think hed be better off keeping that moveset and switching whenever a Steel/Poison/Immunity, etc Pokemon comes out.

 

[FartCakes]

Thanks for the suggestions!

One thing: Weavile would work perfectly with Expert Belt but the fact is his defenses are just horrifying. After one swords dance I dont want to be knocked out and that's why I believe Focus Sash would save me from a OHKO and be more effective. But i dunno ill have to put more thought into it

I know that Leftovers is always a great item but some players don't allow multiple items. (Oh and thanks for the Choice Specs suggestion I didn't realize Choice Band did absolutely nothing to special attacks... lol)

Also, my Shuckle is pretty useless against Steel and Poison but it's attack is sooooo pitiful it makes me wanna cry. Earthquake would barely take a smidge of their health so I think it might be better off just to switch. The Double Team suggestion was good but many trainers dont play with evasion (heh noobs). That's my only concern on that.

 

[VKM]

Lol....your Gengar is exactly like mine. Shiny, and timid. As is Dragonite EVed the exact same way. Anywho, Try fitting counter in Blissey's set and for Dragonite, Dragon Claw is good, but you can also use Rock Slide/Stone Edge or Aerial Ace. Great sets, none the less.

 

[Alpha90]

blissey
-seismic toss
-softboiled
-counter
-toxic

 

[FartCakes]

Hm. How would I get Counter on my Blissey. I like Aromatherapy on it, and Counter would be way better than Seismic Toss in certain situations. Argh. idk

Well, using Earthquake on poison types with low defense doesnt actually do too little damage. Over 15% on a lot of stuff I think. The real problem occurs when you come against Skarmory or levitate Bronzong or Forretress or Gengar or Weezing, etc.

 

[SceptileRules]

i like the team ill give it a 5/10

 

[Ikito]

weavile@focus sash
ice punch
night slash
brick break
aerial ace

 

[)blakFalcon]

BEST Weavile MS:
Weavile@Focus Sash
Ice Punch
Night Slash
Aerial Ace/Brick Break(preferance)
SD

 

[Whoppin' Weavile]

Your Weavile needs Aerial Ace. Replacing Swords Dance would prolly be the best way.
I know it wounds weird, but because of Weavile low Defences, you probably won't have time to use Swords Dance.

 

[ultilucario]

keep weavilie polyrath gengar and dragonite

if you starter is empoleon TRAIN IT!!!!!!
if not................
if u have pearl or palkia i suggest it because palkia almost always goes first and iy has good speacial attack.

or lucario but i wouldn't suggest this very much

[FartCakes]

I don't like using legendaries cuz they mean you have no skill in the end... most of the time. And many trainers dont allow legends.

I'll just swtich my Weavile to Gengar if a Fighting type comes up because most likely I will start with Weavile.

And Sceptile, if I get a 5 I'd like to know why, unless your opinion isn't fact-related (I hope not). But thanks for the rate. I was expecting better. Might have to think of some better pokes.
