Pokemon SoulSilver Team!
Hi! This is my SoulSilver team and my competitive team. Please rate and suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
Team at a Glance:
Feraligatr
Feraligatr @ Life Orb
Nature: Jolly
Ability: Torrent
- Waterfall
- Ice Punch
- Crunch
- Dragon Dance
EVs: 252 ATK/252 SPE/4 HP
*The purpose of this Feraligatr is to use it as a attacking lead. It gets a Dragon Dance off first, then can outspeed many other pokemon due to its Jolly nature and its boost. It also has an all physical moveset. After a DD, it can OHKO/2HKO many walls and other pesky pokemon.
Tyranitar
Tyranitar @ Life Orb
Nature: Admadant
Ability: Sand Stream
- Crunch
- Stone Edge
- Swords Dance
- Earthquake
EVs: 252 ATK/252 DEF/4 HP
*Yay! Another physical monster! (I have a thing for them) This Tyranitar is unique. I didn't invest any Speed EVs. Its a physical tank, kinda like Snorlax except more epic. It, like Feraligatr, has an all physical moveset with the exception of Swords Dance. It gets a Swords Dance off first, boosting its attack to unbelivable levels. Then it can utilize its all physical moveset and kick some ***. Also, it's almost impossible to take down.
Houndoom
Houndoom @ Leftovers
Nature: Modest
Ability: Flash Fire
- Flamethrower
- Dark Pulse
- Will-O-Wisp
- Nasty Plot
EVs: 252 SpA/252 SPE/252 HP
*Behold.... Houndoom. One of the most epic pokemon of all time. Also a extremely potent late-game Nasty Plot sweeper. It gets a Nasty Plot off first (Usually takes first turn). Then it cripples the foe with a Will-O-Wisp. Then it destroys opposing teams with its 2 STAB attacks, Flamethrower and Dark Pulse. KABOOM GOES THE OTHER TEAM!!!
Gliscor
Gliscor @ Life Orb
Nature: Jolly
Ability: Sand Veil
- Earthquake
- Night Slash
- Swords Dance
- Roost
EVs: 252 ATK/252 SPE/252 HP
*Finally. The famous but rarely seen SD Gliscor. Extremely powerful and amazingly epic at the same time. Ok. It uses Swords Dance first, boosting its attack ALOT. Then it uses its two physical attacks to sweep. It uses Roost if neseccary. (Or if it last that long...) to recover from Life Orb recoil and damage. It also works really well in Double Battles with my Tyranitar due to its ability.
Jolteon
Jolteon @ Leftovers
Nature: Modest
Ability: Volt Absorb
- Thunderbolt
- Shadow Ball
- Charge Beam
- Protect
EVs: 252 SpA/252 SPE/4 HP
*Jolteon is one of the most potent late game sweepers due to its typing and high SpA and SPE stats. In this set, it has all special attacks and Protect. For me, I usually use Charge Beam and hope it raises my SpA (Charge Beam has 70% chance of raising SpA). Then I can use Shadow Ball and STAB Thunderbolt to their full potential. It also has Protect for coverage.
Blissey
Blissey @ Leftovers
Nature: Calm
Ablility: Natural Cure
- Toxic
- ThunderWave
- Softboiled
- Ice Beam
EVs: 252 HP/252 SpD/4 SpA
*This Blissey annoys even the nicest people. I absolutely hate Blissey, and thats precisely the reason that i'm using it. It has an arensal of status afflicting moves and a HP recovery move. It is also able to take down physical Dragon types with Ice Beam. So this is how it works:
1. Afflict Paralysis condition on fast pokemon to reduce Speed/Afflict badly poisoned condition on bulky pokemon
2. Right when opponents think they have taken down Blissey, use Softboiled to make them RAGE QUIT.
3. Take down annoying Dragon types slowly with Ice Beam.
Team Overview: I personally think this is a well balanced team. But I would like opinions from experienced battlers. I am also aware that I am lacking a physical wall. I will get to that problem later with Swampert or Skarmory.
THANK YOU FOR READING THIS RMT!!!
