Excitable Boy
is a metaphor
Guys, I know there's been a lot of talk about a tourney amongst us, but I've realised that there's going to be a DS tourney at the league I go to so I'd like to get your opinions on what I've got on my mind for a team.
I'm gonna put this next bit in bold so people will actually notice it (just incase they normally wouldn't)I don't want to go all out OU style with my team and anything that I say is definatly on my team will be there unless you have a good reason to suggest otherwise, moves however can be discussed. I'm also going to stick a post like this in the rate my team section later but I want your opinions first...
Anyway, these first 2 are the ones I'm definatly having in (although the second one I'm not sure what style to go for...
Togekiss, Calm, Ability. Serene Grace, Item. Leftovers
EV's:252 HP / 6 Def / 252 SpD
Moves: Thunder Wave, Air Slash, Roost, Aura Sphere
Gallade(1), Adamant, Ability. Steadfast, Item. Focus Sash
EV's:56 HP / 252 Atk / 200 Spe
Moves: Close Combat, Shadow Sneak, Taunt, Destiny Bond
Why Focus Sash when SR is very common these days and you have 56 HP EVs?
(2), Adamant, Ability. Steadfast, Item. Leftovers/Wide Lens
EV's:252 HP / 152 Atk / 104 Def
Moves: Close Combat, Night Slash, Hypnosis, Thunder Wave/Will-O-Wisp
I'm questioning the need for two status moves on the same Pokemon.
Advice on which Gallade set is appreciated, I've got 5 other thoughts for members of my team so suggest the best 4 out of them or of something else you think might be better,
Forretress, Relaxed , Ability. Sturdy, Item. Shed Shell
EV's: 252 HP / 112 Atk / 144 Def (0 spd IV)
Moves:Toxic Spikes, Gyro Ball, Rapid Spin, Earthquake/Rest
Fine. I see no problem.
Scizor, Adamant, Ability. Technician, Item. Choice Band
EV's: 248 HP / 252 Atk / 8 Spe
Moves: U-turn, Bullet Punch, Pursuit, Superpower/Brick Break
Again, fine.
Rhyperior, Impish, Ability. Solid Rock, Item. Leftovers
EV's: 244 HP / 184 Def / 80 SpD
Moves: Earthquake, Megahorn, Avalanche, Stealth Rock
Dump Megahorn for Stone Edge or Rock Slide.
Breloom, Adamant, Ability. Poison Heal, Item. Toxic Orb
EV's: 44 HP / 252 Atk / 212 Spe
Moves: Spore, Stun Spore, Focus Punch, Seed Bomb
If you're going to use Focus Punch, you may want to use Substitute as well.
Abomasnow, Modest/Mild, Ability. Snow Warning, Item. Choice Specs
EV's:4 Atk / 252 SpA / 252 Spe
Moves: Blizzard, Energy Ball, Hid Power: Fire, Focus Punch
This really doesn't fit with the team. Dump it.
I think you may need another Special attacker and something Special defensive too. Ampharos, perhaps, or Latias? A Rotom Forme could work, too.
Thanks for any help and I'll let you know how it goes...
Comments in bold. Good luck!
