I am at the 7th gym, and after my Exeggutor died, I needed to fill the spot in my team with someone who preferably effective against psychic.
This is my current team, who i would prefer not to change(but i am open to moveset changes!):
Clawitzer @Nothing Lv.42
Mild
Mega Launcher
-Surf
-Water Pulse
-Smack Down
-Swords Dance
Smack Down+ Swords Dance are just filler until i get enough heart scales to get him some actually good moves. Plan on having him with a variety of types for different situations.
Gyarados @King's Rock Lv.47
Bashful
Intimidate
-Aqua Tail
-Ice Fang
-Dragon Rage
-Dragon Dance
Physical sweeper, hasn't seen much use lately because Aqua Tail misses so much for me, but as soon as I get Waterfall, he will be ready to go. Ice Fang for Dragon/Ice types, Dragon Rage mainly so I can weaken wild Pokemon reliably, and Dragon Dance for setting up on a tough opponent.
Snorlax @Silk Scarf Lv.48
Quirky
Immunity
-Strength
-Power-Up Punch
-Belly Drum
-Rest
This guy is my special wall, taking almost any special attack with ease. Hits pretty hard with Strength + Silk Scarf + STAB too. Strength over other moves mainly for utility in the field, and he hits hard enough anyway. Most of his other moves are just for setting up, power-Up Punch for attack boost, Belly Drum for a risky but powerful set-up, and Rest is really just filler until a better move.
Slurpuff @Nothing Lv.50
Naughty
Sweet Veil
-Play Rough
-Energy Ball
-Facade
-Wish
Slurpuff here was kinda weak up until I got Play Rough. Just destroys anything he finds that isn't a Steel or Poison type. Wish is for a way to heal, or to heal mid-battle on himself or another Pokemon.
Charizard @Charizardite X Lv.51
Naughty
Blaze
-Fire Fang
-Dragon Claw
-Fly
-Roost
Charizard got SO overleveled in Ramos's gym. Fire Fang and Fly for STAB, Dragon Claw for the occasions that I do mega-evolve, and Roost for a reliable source of recovery.
My options are:
Gourgeist @Nothing Lv.40
Rash
Pickup
-Shadow Sneak
-Bullet Seed
-Trick-or-Treat
-Leech Seed
Not really sure about this one, didn't do too well in training, although I would like to use him to replace my grass type while simultaneously being effective against Olympia's psychics. But hey, its there.
Gengar @Nothing Lv.40
Bashful
Levitate
-Shadow Ball
-Thunderbolt
-Dazzling Gleam
-Substitute
Originally was going for Gengar, except I forgot he was poison type. He had really crap except fro Shadow Ball, so I taught him some special TMs. He would probably be the strongest except he could die really easy, and I don't want to train him up just for him to die in Olympia's gym.
Vivillion @Nothing Lv.40
Lax
Compound Eyes
-Bug Buzz
-Psybeam
-Draining Kiss
-Roost
One of my first captures, swapped out for Exeggutor when I got her, but then after her death, I was not sure if I should use her again or not. Bug Buzz would be pretty strong against Olympia though, and she does have Roost, so I am slighlty leaning toward her.
I can't decide between them, and some help deciding would be appreciated. Keep in mind that this is a nuzlocke though, so i can't just go and catch a Pokemon to use.
