Hello Smogoners!
I don't want to spend a lot of time doing this(I'm not even sure this is how to do it) lol!
So I made up a team of pokemon focused around the new most popular pokemon! Now some of you may not know what this pokemon is.... well, It's ferrothorn! Yup! I've been doing showdown recently and I use this baby a lot!
So hear is my modest team!
1. Ferrothorn!!!!
Well, this is my usual lead poke:
Ferrothorn @ Rocky Helmet
Ability: Iron Barbs
Shiny: Yes
EVs: 252 Def / 252 HP / 4 Atk
Impish Nature
- Leech Seed
- Protect
- Curse
- Bullet Seed
The way I start really depends on the pokemon my opponent sends out, if it is the ever so popular politoed, then I'll usually be able to OHKO with a bullet seed! The same goes for other popular weather leads like Tyranitar and Hippowdon!
If it is a powerful fire type, like Blaziken, Infernape, ninetales(fire team), then I opt for either a protect or leech seed, the leech seed not be that common. OR I will switch to my chandelier or Heatran.
Chandelure is next!
Chandelure @ Leftovers
Ability: Flash Fire
EVs: 252 SAtk / 252 HP / 4 SDef
Modest Nature
- Energy Ball
- Flamethrower
- Shadow Ball
- Pain Split
Flash fire lets it take the fire attacks that Ferrothorn has so much trouble with! But the rest I thought... I wanted coverage for the water weakness that chandelier has, so I picked energy ball! Nothing really big, flamethrower and shadow ball as stab, and Pain split to help it last longer!
3. Hydreigon- my anti-ghost and psychic, and ground
now I thought of the pokemon with the most immunities and it was hydreigon!
I'll stop giving pictures....
Hydreigon @ Leftovers
Ability: Levitate
Shiny: Yes
EVs: 252 SAtk / 252 HP / 4 SDef
Modest Nature
- Dark Pulse
- Draco Meteor
- Surf
- Roost
So Hydreigon is really just going to switch in on psychics, ghosts, and grounds, especially tyranitar! Decided to give it Draco Meteor for stab, Dark pulse to get rid of ghost/psychic, surf as additional coverage, since I wanted extra insurance against fire!
Breloom @ Life Orb
Ability: Effect Spore
EVs: 252 Spd / 252 Atk / 4 HP
Jolly Nature
- Bullet Seed
- Mach Punch
- Spore
- Swords Dance
I love Breloom, try not to make me change him, he is another anti-water and This set is awesome, allowing me to beat down other tanks with swords dance mach punch, and bullet seed will be able to OHKO most water types
Heatran @ Air Balloon
Ability: Flash Fire
EVs: 252 SAtk / 252 HP / 4 Atk
Mild Nature
- Earth Power
- Iron Head
- Lava Plume
- Hidden Power [Grass]
Well I decided that I couldn't have enough Water checks, and I added Iron head for extra Dragon coverage in case Ferrothorn gets taken out, and Earth Power for poison, Rock, electric, and extra fire coverage!
Mew @ Leftovers
Ability: Synchronize
EVs: 252 SAtk / 252 HP / 4 SDef
Modest Nature
- Ice Beam
- Roost
- Psychic
- Thunderbolt
Now mew is totally out of place on this team, I used him for coverage against physical tanks, I wanted extra water, and dragon checks, as well as a psychic for fighting types that give me trouble, I almost wanted to put U-turn on, but I had a psychic immunity, so what the heck?
I know my team is bad, I mean, none of my teams were very good, but please help me!
