Underused Team

[Vampiric Knight]

Meh, I'm bored. :/ But I have been thinking about using this team, though. (against friends, on Netbattle, in the JAA tournament, who knows?)

Primeape @ Leftovers
Adamant/Jolly nature
- Rock slide
- Cross chop
- Body slam
- Aerial ace / Bulk up

I just love Primeape. Suprised it's UU...ah well.

Farfetch'd @ Leftovers / Salac berry
Adamant nature
- Aerial ace
- Fury cutter
- Slash
- Return / Toxic (for 2 v 2)

Love this fella, too. As bad as it is, it's my very beloved physical sweeper in Leaf Green (really). Now, for toxic in 2 v 2...

Sneasel @ Salac berry / Shell bell
Naughty nature
- Brick break
- Shadow ball
- Aerial ace
- Swords dance / Facade (for 2 v 2)

...since I gave it plenty enough Atk EVs, once it's poisoned, it'll cause some major damage.

Feraligatr @ Leftovers
??? nature
- Surf
- Ice beam
- Earthquake (???)
- ???

Yeah...haven't decided on how this guy'll do.

Arbok @ Leftovers
Jolly nature
- Sludge bomb
- Earthquake
- Rock slide
- Iron tail (or something...)

Lanturn @ Leftovers / Petaya berry / Chesto berry (with rest)
Modest nature
- Thunderbolt
- Surf
- Ice beam
- Rest

 

[Tazzler]

Primepae@Choice Band
Jolly Nature
-Cross Chop
-Earthquake
-Rock Slide
-Hidden Power Ghost/Focus Punch/Double-Edge

Ditch farfetch'd. It is highly inferior to swellow/fearow as a sweeper and scizor as a baton passer.

Sneasel should also be ditched.

But I'll give movesets:

Farfetch'd@Liechi Berry
Jolly Nature
-Endure
-Agility
-Flail
-Hidden Power Ghost/Flying

OR

Farfecth'd@Leftovers
Jolly Nature
-Swords Dance
-Return
-Baton Pass
-Agility

Sneasel@Leftovers/Liechi Berry
Jolly Nature
-Swords dance
-Substitute
-Focus Punch/Brick Break
-Shadow Ball

Feraligatr@leftovers (SapphireL jumps with glee evrytime someone has a feraligatr that wants to be rated. XD)
Brave Nature
-Earthquake
-Hydro Pump
-Swords Dance
-Rock Slide

Lanturn@Leftovers
Modest/Calm Nature
-Thunderbolt
-Surf
-Thunder Wave/Ice Beam/Sleep Talk
-Rest

Arbok@Choice Band
Adamant Nature
-Sludge Bomb
-Rock Slide
-Earthquake
-Hidden Power Ghost/Double-Edge

Pretty much die to an asasult of rock slide, earthquake, and brick break/hi-jump-kick/focus punch.

 

[ZNtelle]

Nothing here can really take a hit tbh.

 

[magnemiteZ]

Slap in a nice friendly Curselax, and all your troubles will be gone... Well, almost

Snorlax@ leftovers
Careful Nature
-Body Slam/Return
-Rest
-Shadow Ball
-Curse

 

[ZNtelle]

I thought you said you didn't like Snorlax. lol

Curselax wouldn't be a good fit here because the guy is going UU.

 

[magnemiteZ]

I DO hate Snorlax, but that doesn't stop me reccomending it when it is appropriate.

erm, What are UU tanks then?

 

[ZNtelle]

Good point, there are like none. Pretty much all of them are OU. Shuckle's not worth recommending either, which makes it hard to find a real UU tank. Grumpig's a good special tank and Aggron the best physical, but that's like all I can think of.

 

[magnemiteZ]

Golem>Aggron cos of the 2 4x weaknesses that Aggron has.
Mr Mime likes Special Hits.
Steelix.
Slowking.
Politoad+Poliwrath... but less so

 

[ZNtelle]

I think Mr. Mime is OU and Steelix is BL.

 

[magnemiteZ]

Nah, I checked today... Mime is UU, but you are right about Steelix (I assumed on 'im)
Look here

 

[ZNtelle]

That deems half of my formerly UU team as BL. :oh joy:

Blastoise makes for an okay UU Physical Wall InGame.

 

[Vampiric Knight]

Golem>Aggron cos of the 2 4x weaknesses that Aggron has.

Good point. But, there's this I'd like to point:

Golem's weaknesses:
- 4x: Water, grass
- 2x: Ice, fighting, ground, steel
- 1/2x: Normal, fire, flying rock
- 1/4x: Poison
- 0x: Electric

Aggron's weaknesses:
- 4x: Fighting, ground
- 2x: Water
- 1/2x: Ice, psychic, bug, rock, ghost, dragon, dark
- 1/4x: Normal, flying
- 0x: Poison

In terms of how many types they can/can't stand up against, Aggron pretty much has it beat. And those 4x weaknesses of Golem; both of which can hurt him bad with his horrible Sp. Def. Aggron can maybe stand up against his 4x weaknesses with his better Def. (Just a little theory...or whatever :/)

Edit: Steelix isn't UU? o_0

 

[magnemiteZ]

^THOUGH, the problem is, EQ and Fighters are everywhere.

lol, What'd you have Nine Thou?

Blastoise, forgot about that.
Same with Altaria, but then again...
Hypno Likes Special Attacks too.
Muk! Totally forgot about him. I love Muk! I am making that an official suggestion.
Muk@ Leftovers
Trait-Sticky Hold
Careful Nature
Evs-144 HP, 176 Attack, 8 Def, 180 Sp Def (something along those lines)
-Curse
-Sludge Bomb
-Shadow Punch
-Thunder Wave/Rest

Or you could always use Sharpedo... O.O

 

[ZNtelle]

Well, Typhlosion, Slowbro, and Chansey are now absent from what I thought was my UU team...

Muk is the ultimate UU tank. How did I forget about him?

EDIT: I mean, how did we forget?

 

[DragonDance]

Slowbro is UU right?

 

[magnemiteZ]

^Apparantly not

damn, Slowbro is in my UU team too... -_- shoot.

Muk... Gotta love him. (That is my set that I sue in UU)

 

[Tazzler]

The best UU special tanks are grumpid, HYPNO, mantine, lapras, muk, and lanturn.

The best UU physical tanks are Steelix (dunno about tier tbh), AGGRON, golem, gligar (to an extent), and reflect solrock.

 

[ZNtelle]

Both Lapras and Steelix are BL though.

 

[Tazzler]

I haven't nb in a loooooooooooooong time especially UU and there lapras and steelix were everywhere. And unless they changed the rules/preferences BLs are still allowed. But I really don't know tbh.

 

[DragonDance]

BL's are Banned from Smogon, and you're allowed 2 in PokeRealm
