Uber Team

[Hey Micky!]

I got my arse handed to me so this team clearly has problems, so fix them.

Celebi @ Leftovers
Trait: Natural Cure
EVs: 252 HP / 224 Spd / 32 SDef
Timid Nature (+Spd, -Atk)
- Baton Pass
- Hidden Power [Bug]
- Substitute
- Swords Dance

Seemed cool. Only 320 Speed since that outruns a no-nature Max Speed Lati, and if there's anything with more than 220 Speed it aint gonna outrun it anyway. No-one uses it but it seems rather cool IMO. Against Kyogre I can BP straight to Sheddy who'll then BP to Groudon, there's other random possibilities but that's off the top of my head.

Groudon @ Leftovers
Trait: Drought
EVs: 252 Atk / 4 Def / 252 Spd
Jolly Nature (+Spd, -SAtk)
- Earthquake
- Hidden Power [Bug]
- Rock Slide
- Swords Dance

Eh.

Shedinja @ Lum Berry
Trait: Wonder Guard
EVs: 252 Atk / 252 Spd / 1 SAtk
Adamant Nature (+Atk, -SAtk)
- Baton Pass
- Grudge
- Shadow Ball
- Silver Wind

Just there so I don't get walled by Kyogre. Actually having major Kyogre problems since people have the sense to run Pursuit Meta or Spikes.

Exeggutor (M) @ Lum Berry
Trait: Chlorophyll
EVs: 40 Atk / 216 Spd / 252 SAtk
Rash Nature (+SAtk, -SDef)
- Explosion
- Sleep Powder
- Solar Beam
- Stun Spore

"Groudon Counter", definately quote-unquote but this is as close as it gets it seems...

Ho-oh @ Leftovers
Trait: Pressure
EVs: 192 HP / 140 Def / 96 Spd / 80 SDef
Calm Nature (+SDef, -Atk)
- Calm Mind
- Recover
- Sacred Fire
- Thunderbolt

Had too much physical in the team so I wanted something special...

Metagross @ Leftovers
Trait: Clear Body
EVs: 252 HP / 148 Atk / 92 Def / 16 SDef
Relaxed Nature (+Def, -Spd)
- Earthquake
- Light Screen
- Meteor Mash
- Pursuit

Filler is just to try and fill in random weaks...

----

I SUCK at Ubers so I'll need alot of filling in, EV setups people are likely to use, common staples etc etc.

 

[WhiteWizard42]

well, i know nothing about ubers, either, but i'd love to know the logic behind timid celebi with HP Bug being its only attacking move. surely, jolly would be better?

 

[magnemiteZ]

Yeah, not sure why Celeri is Timid.
Seeing as you will be Passing SD's to Groudon, it's SD seems a bit redundant. But I suppose it's useful having them here just in-case something happens to Celebi.

There are many better Special Ubers than Ho-oh imo.

 

[asianmang]

Celebi isn't getting a bp off in ubers, it never worked for me and I've tried everything probably that can work in ubers. You will be cannon fodder for many things.

That groudon could use more Twave or Sub instead of HP bug. I don't even bother with HP bug anymore because Latias/Latios doesn't switch in except after something has been killed.

That shedinja could use more SD over grudge

Exeggutor sucks in today's metagame, defensive kyogre is a much better Groudon counter. Remember: Max defense max hp Kyogre will always survive an SD'd Adamant Groudon's Earthquake.

Special Ho-oh is trash, it gets walled to hell and back by lati@s. Use Toxic/Recover/Shadow Ball/Sacred Fire if you want ho-oh.

That metagross doesn't do **** to anything, I would go with Toxic at the very least over Pursuit.

A standard stall team meaning one that has spiking skarm will just outstall the crap out of this one.

 

[SilverJirachi]

Perhaps you can put some attack-boosting items instead of leftovers? And for celebi, I don't think hidden power is much of a use, try something more powerful. The rest of your team seems fine, Groundon could use some fire attack move so I would replace hidden power with flamethrower or fireblast, your choice whether or not to do it. Overall, your team is pretty decent and it'll do great.

 

[Hey Micky!]

Timid Celebi was an accident on my part, obviously placed the wrong nature setting.

Thanks for the tips G80. From the looks of things I need to do a whole lot of team reshuffling so I'll put this thread on closed 'til I figure something out.
