My lame team that has had a surprising amount of shoddy success

So, for those of you who don't know, recently shoddy unbanned wobuffet, and I was having fun with a trap team. I personally believed that wobbuffet didn't belong in the standard metagame, and I was testing him to find out. Seriously, I made this team in like 5 minutes.

Crobat (♂) @ Lum Berry
Ability: Inner Focus
EVs: 128 Def/252 Spd/128 SDef
Jolly nature (+Spd, -SAtk)
- U-turn
- Taunt
- Hypnosis
- Sunny Day

This has become my favorite lead by far. Taunt stops everything that doesn't attack, hypnosis stops things that do, and u-turn gets me out of a bad situation. U-turn is also especially important because....

Charizard (♂) @ Salac Berry
Ability: Blaze
EVs: 252 Atk/4 Def/252 Spd
Adamant nature (+Atk, -SAtk)
- Substitute
- Belly Drum
- Fire Punch
- Earthquake

Okay, lets say I hypnosis'd something and u-turned out. If he didn't switch, I'd probably switch to charizard first. Its a standard bellyzard, nothing special. Coming off of an encore from Wobuffet is also pretty useful.

Wobbuffet (♂) @ Leftovers
Ability: Shadow Tag
EVs: 4 HP/252 Def/252 SDef
Bold nature (+Def, -Atk)
- Counter
- Encore
- Mirror Coat
- Safeguard

If its mildly threatening, I switch to wobuffet. Encore lets me know what to do next... for instance, if they attack, I kill with counter/mirror coat. This is especially even more potent coming potentially off of a taunt from crobat. If I manage to encore a status move, then I use safeguard and switch to...

Dugtrio (♂) @ Choice Band
Ability: Arena Trap
EVs: 6 HP/252 Atk/252 Spd
Jolly nature (+Spd, -SAtk)
- Earthquake
- Aerial Ace
- Sucker Punch
- Rock Slide

My secondary trapper, and I have a million ways to get him in, whether through u-turn, baton pass, or switching from Wobbuffet. They can't escape, so I guess I have to kill them.

Heatran (♂) @ Choice Scarf
Ability: Flash Fire
EVs: 6 HP/252 Spd/252 SAtk
Modest nature (+SAtk, -Atk)
- Earth Power
- Explosion
- Overheat
- Hidden Power [Ice]

I dunno why this is even on the team, he doesnt fit in at all. Oh well.
---
Vaporeon (♂) @ Leftovers
Ability: Water Absorb
EVs: 188 HP/252 Def/68 SAtk
Bold nature (+Def, -Atk)
- Substitute
- Surf
- Wish
- Baton Pass

My second way of switching in my trappers... wish/baton pass/sub gets in whoever I need. Sub-passing to Dugtrio is an especially effective technique.

Thats it. Good? Not really. Hilarious? Very yes.

Wobbuffet is Uber. I suggest replacing it with a different Pokemon.

No, it's your first and only trapper.

Wobbuffett(SP?) is allowed on the shoddy ladder, like Deoxys E.

And he DID mention it was a shoddy team.

I like it, although Sunny Day seems a bit limited in use.

Nice set-up and moveset. Just watch out for Stealth Rocks, they will pretty much completly ruin him.

...WTF. They unbanned this guy?? First that Deoxys, now this. :dizzy: Anyway, I think you want to max out HP in order to maximize Leftover returns and Counter damage.

I think you should remove the band and give it Swords Dance over...something else. If you pass it from Wobbuffet, you basically get a couple free turns. Why not bulk up your power while waiting for their encore to end?

Is this your other main option from Crobat's U-turn? Seems like it would do well.

Even more of a reason to go with Swords Dance on Trio. Anyway, good.

I think a couple of pokes need a re-banning. Wobbuffet for one is broken in the standard metagame. Oh well, nice team.

Again, wobbuffet was just unbanned on shoddy battle.

@tombstone, you're absolutely right. Dugtrio could use a stat up move while the enemy is locked into doing nothing. Sadly the only stat up move he knows is.... double team.
As for stealth rock, I thought about a spinner, but at the moment I'm using it at an opportunity to switch in and set up.
