hello everyone, I am trying to make an OU team based on mega gyarados.
So here I go:
Gyarados-Mega @ Gyaradosite
Ability: Intimidate
EVs: 252 Atk / 4 SpD / 252 Spe
Jolly Nature
- Waterfall
- Crunch
- Earthquake / Ice Fang
- Dragon Dance
As my first mega pick, my team will revolves around him. Gyarados.M is pretty good fighter, Originally I run aqua tail over waterfall until hax get me. Crunch and DD is staple. I think. Third slot moves is the one that gives me a lots of headache. I only choose EQ over anything else just for the high power it has.
Talonflame
Ability: Gale Wings
EVs: 248 HP / 8 Atk / 252 SpD
Adamant Nature
- Acrobatics
- Roost
- Bulk Up
- Will-O-Wisp
Oh boy, give a medal to whoever invented this set. A seriously great pokemon especially if my opponent sending in tyranitar or hippowdon only to get burned. This pokemon doesn't really need much explanation, I guess, as smogon already explained it all.
Mew @ Life Orb ?
Ability: Synchronize
EVs: 4 HP / 252 Atk / 252 Spe ?
Adamant Nature ?
- Defog
- Swords Dance ?
- Explosion ?
- Stealth Rock ?
I'm not-so-newb in pokemon, I can guess you guys will shoud Stealth Rock! the moment you guys saw my first 2 pokemon.
I have considered many defogger/spinner in the meta:
- Togekiss, skarmory, mandibuzz, gliscor, scizor, excadrill, latias
All of them either afraid of SR, or M.manectric. The most viables are latias and excadrill.
I ended up choosing mew for the sole purpose of not dying to M.manectric.
I have tried almost every single one of them, they ended up spinning/defogging once and almost completely useless afterwards.
For now, I only expected mew to defog, and the rest is just trolling the opponent.
Overall the defogger/spinner slot is my one biggest reason why I create this RMT thread as you can see there are many Question Marks (?) here.
Also I suspected someone might suggest replacing the former two, I know, but they are so awesome I don't want to replace them :(
Rotom-Wash @ Leftovers
Ability: Levitate
EVs: 252 HP / 4 SpA / 252 SpD
Calm Nature
- Volt Switch
- Hydro Pump
- Will-O-Wisp
- Reflect / Light Screen / Pain Split
Another support pokemon, so far has performed admirably. The options for him are a physically defensive one or specially defensive. I choose partially, with specially defensive spread with will-o-wisp and reflect. This pokemon still up for suggestions. I rarely use the fourth moveslot, I don't know what to put.
Kyurem-Black @ Life Orb
Ability: Teravolt
EVs: 20 Atk / 252 Def / 236 Spe
Mild Nature
- Fusion Bolt
- Ice Beam
- Earth Power
- Hidden Power [Fire] / Outrage
The last two pokemon are what I call as "supplementary" or "auxiliary". If my team are threatened of certain pokemons, I am putting their counter here.
First up is Kyurem-B. If I predicted right with his moves, victory could be guaranteed early. The fourth moveslot, again, asked for suggestions.
Conkeldurr @ Assault Vest
Ability: Guts
EVs: 248 HP / 252 Atk / 8 SpD
Adamant Nature
- Drain Punch
- Mach Punch
- Knock Off
- Poison Jab
After I have chosen my dragon, I tried to make my sixth pokemon the most neutral as possible, sort of like my safest switch into. Well a bulky fighting came to mind, and conkeldurr happened to cross my mind.
However, he is completely countered by M.gallade, As I don't really have a dedicated wall.
So far the pokemon that I found most troubling are clefables (or any fairy, really), it KOs kyurem, conk and gyaradosM, tank rotom to no end, and I once win against him by outstalling with bulk-up talonflame (his aromatherapy run out), this is why I don't really want to replace talonflame.
So here I go:
