Right... My battling pokes! and im SERIOUS now :D

[ToiletRoll]

Righto, my last thread got closed because, well, i sucked really. I didnt read the stickies or anything. Because the "post Thread" button was above those and was the first thing i saw. Wont happen again i promise =3

Anyways heres my updated team, complete with EV training. (i usually lead with the ninjask) :D


Aerodactyl @ Expert Belt
Adamant
Rock Head
252 Speed, 252 Atk
Stone Edge
Crunch
Earthquake
Aerial Ace
Basically the all out attacker, hit hard, die fast. replaces my Kamikaze very well methinks. and if it has been baton passed in by my ninjask, it'll kick ***

Blissey @ Leftovers
Bold
Natural Cure
252 HP, 252 Def
Calm Mind
Softboiled
Ice Beam
Thunderbolt
The Better Bertha(blissey of my crappy team) with a natural cure to get rid of those annoying Burns and Toxics :D Basically calm mind as much as possible, softboiling to keep me alive whilst doing so(leftovers help) and when i feel neccesary i pulverise with thunderbolt or icebeam

Forretress @ Silk Scarf
Sassy
Sturdy
252 Def, 252 Atk
EarthQuake
Gyro Ball
Explosion
Spikes
Now replacing my unwanted, useless, defensive Aerodactyl we have a new defense of sorts, This one is the basic attacker, need a second life orb so it may hold it but the silk scarf raises the power of explosion(will change it, open to any ideas) Just attacks really and Explodes when its sell-by date is due

Ninjask @ Focus Sash
Adamant
Speed Boost
252 Atk, 252 Speed
Swords Dance
Aerial Ace
X-Scissor
Baton Pass
Usually I lead with this. Swords dance is ALWAYS my first move and i keep using that until the opponent damages me(focus sash just incase, defense on these things suck) then I attack if i know i can take the opponents pokemon, or baton pass to my first aerodactyl and maybe on the rare occasion, my Torterra. which is up next...

Torterra @ Muscle Band
Brave
Overgrow
252 HP, 252 Atk
Stone Edge
Earthquake
Synthesis
Wood Hammer
I didnt really think much of the moveset, i want to get rid of the iron tail tbh accuracy is unreliable. Basically set the opponent up with a leech seed(if i decide to keep it) then batter lumps outta the opponent whilst keeping my own health high with synthesis.

Skarmory @ Leftovers
Sassy
Sturdy
252 speed, 252 defense
Stealth Rock
Spikes
Roost
Roar
Really simple strategy: Stealth rock once, Spikes thrice, keeping my health up with roost and forcing the opponent to Switch out AND lose health. i thought this was really good because the only decent poke that can outlast it is a Breloom.(which i am considering to raise...)


Replacements(they sometimes replace a team member)

Poliwrath @ Life Orb?
Adamant
Water Absorb
252 Atk, 126 Sp Def, 126 Def, 4 HP.
EarthQuake
Poison Jab
Hypnosis
Bulk Up
Not thought much on this one at all really. If i have it in my team i would switch it in to a predicted water attack, For battling I would put the opponent to sleep and then bulk up thus stat increase. Then i beat the pulp outta whatevers there.


Next Pokemon to add : Breloom (I'm hoping)


To be perfectly honest, the defensive aerodactyl was a Craap member for the team, im kinda glad its gone
Rate and be as honest as you can, this is a newly made team made as fast as possible, not much thought went into the movesets. Let me know what you think :D

rofl @ 2 aerodactyls.

watch out for ninjask. priority moves kill him after focus sash before you can baton pass, and chances are that whatever you pass to will die coming in anyway.

I think you should baton pass speed boost and swords dance to an attacking skarmory so your opponent will **** his pants.

 

[jigglyppuff8]

Blissey dies in one physical hit. Use 252 def instead of 252 sp. def.

Species clause only allows for one aerodactyl. I wouldn't suggest using the 2nd set.

Ninjask should drop Aerial Ace for Protect or Substitute. In your case, it would be protect so that it gets another speed boost.

Get rid of Iron Tail and use Wood Hammer or Seed Bomb(?) on Torterra.

Skarmory should be Impish Nature and give it Drill Peck rathar than both of the switch-in hazards. It works fine with just one of them. And I tried speed Skarm, doesn't work very well... Use Tamato Berries on it until its speed can't go any lower and replace them with HP EVs.

Other than that I see nothing wrong. You do realize that if you use an everstone, the FEMALE parent holding it will have a 50% chance of passing down its nature, right? Also, you're missing 6 EVs and since you're a newb(don't worry, we were all newbs once ) I think that these EV sets might be slightly less effiecient 255/255 sets. Although it doesn't really make much of a difference, it doesn't hurt to have that last 6 EVs in one stat.

And put a space between : ( so that you can have >: ( in your siggy.

*coughs and points out your reading error*

Yep, actually im sure i mentioned somewhere that i tried 100 times for a modest houndour...

Ninjask should drop Aerial Ace for Protect or Substitute. In your case, it would be protect so that it gets another speed boost.

Yep, your right :D thanks for that little tidbit of info, MAY put it to good use, as i like my pokemons to have a wide selection of moves so that in a pinch i could maybe sneak in a supereffective attack. The speed on this Ninjask is 402, so its gonna move first anyways. the attack on it is 306 quite the bit of attack i must say. I kinda made it an Adamant nature so that it could stand up for itself if it were the last pokemon left, the extra speed boost would be good at the Start, but if my Ninjask survives to the end and the pokemon it was facing was 4X resistant to bug, i would be in deep **** (s'cuse me language) So i may need to think hard on this one

Get rid of Iron Tail and use Wood Hammer or Seed Bomb(?) on Torterra.

Hmmm i dont think Torterra can learn Seed Bomb, ill check. But wood hammer is a good idea

Skarmory should be Impish Nature and give it Drill Peck rathar than both of the switch-in hazards. It works fine with just one of them. And I tried speed Skarm, doesn't work very well... Use Tamato Berries on it until its speed can't go any lower and replace them with HP EVs.

I did think on that, but with the infuriating process of trying to get a modest houndour, i didn't tend to think about much XD

Yeah i did find out about EVs and stuff about a month back, so yeah im a newbie
Also if you were referring to my houndour with the everstone trick, the parent wasnt Modest, if it were, it would be getting trained
Didnt know about the spare EVs i missed out... Dang XD

Spoiler

I just lolled, of course i know that, its just i cba to change it

 

[Metal~Mario]

Get a modest ditto if you want a modest houndour. Bonus points if it has maxed Special attack or Speed IV.

 

[JesiahTEG]

I'm not sure I follow or not, but you do know that having 2 of the same Pokemon is against the rules right? It's a violation of the species clause.

 

[Deleted member]

I have a thing for disrespect of stupid rules, and the species clause is no exception. Rock on, aerodactyl spammer.

 

[JesiahTEG]

Rock on, Aerodactyl spammer? That's all you can say? *sigh*

 

[Deleted member]

one day you will get tired of plans and logic, and maybe when you do, you'll see how much fun it is to upset them. create a little chaos, upset the order of...things.

you should know, you play mewtwo in round 4 of smogon tournaments.

 

[ToiletRoll]

:D rock on? i didnt want to bring up the aerodactyl, was just a silly idea that turned out bad. like i said, it WOULDa been a Nasty Plot Houndoom up there if i coulda got a modest hounour.

but yeah, i rock....?

Aerodactyl @ Expert Belt
Adamant
Rock Head
252 Speed, 252 Atk
Stone Edge
Crunch
Earthquake
Aerial Ace
Basically the all out attacker, hit hard, die fast. replaces my Kamikaze very well methinks. and if it has been baton passed in by my ninjask, it'll kick ***

I think Aerial Ace is a waste. It only adds Fighting coverage (SE takes on the Bug). If, by Kamikaze tactic, you're saying this is a suicide fighter, those tend to have moves that linger (read: Stealth Rocks). But if you choose all attacks, put a Choice Band on it.

Skarmory @ Leftovers
Sassy
Sturdy
252 speed, 252 defense
Stealth Rock
Spikes
Roost
Roar
Really simple strategy: Stealth rock once, Spikes thrice, keeping my health up with roost and forcing the opponent to Switch out AND lose health. i thought this was really good because the only decent poke that can outlast it is a Breloom.(which i am considering to raise...)

You realize that your really simple strategy gives your opponent 4 free turns, right? This set is destroyed by Taunt.

To be perfectly honest, the defensive aerodactyl woulda been replaced if at least one out of the hundred tries was a modest houndoom. ****it

Do as they said. Go on a ditto catching spree, pick out any of the useful natures, and use those for breeding. Everstone for the 50% pass rate.

Yep, your right :D thanks for that little tidbit of info, MAY put it to good use, as i like my pokemons to have a wide selection of moves so that in a pinch i could maybe sneak in a supereffective attack.

Or, you know, you could just avoid that scenario by starting with a better set up. Look, with a x4 Stealth Rocks weakness and SandStream brushing off his Focus Sash, Ninjask isn't really coming back for seconds. It should never be your last member.

Now imagine you took his advice and replaced Aerial Ace with Substitute.
1) You get a little extra something to pass
2) Ninjask gets more turns to work with
3) ^With said turns, Speed Boost grants more to pass

Ok, so Ninjask just Substituted himself into the red and Baton Passed. He's still useful. Near-dead pokemon make wonderful sacrificial swaps. Hence why he shouldn't be your last member.

 

[Zephyr II]

Wait..... 2 of the same pokemon is against the rules?!

Toilet Roll, you battled me at lunch, & you used BOTH of them T_T

Cheater!!! Anyway, at some point I'm going to re-raise what I have in my team to benefit there best stats - how 'bout a super fast Sceptile, heh? & mabey a Killer Wigglytuff XD

 

[jigglyppuff8]

NO U, Wigglytuff's mine!!! BTW Zephyr, look up EV training, you'll need it.

And a couple more things, Whirlwind > Roar on Skarmory. Why? I don't remember, but I'm sure it was important. And use Ditto with an everstone like crazy, it saves lives time.

I know about EV training, thanks anyway

Awww....... pleeeaase can I raise a killer Wigglytuff?

 

[Deleted member]

anything modest with Synchronize also helps.<

 

[ToiletRoll]

Good news everyone XD i edited the bit at the beginning and you'll notice that there are no longer 2 aerodactyls Welcome to Forretree the forretress XD

 

[ToiletRoll]

And a couple more things, Whirlwind > Roar on Skarmory. Why? I don't remember

I think i know how it is better than Roar, but not everyone goes around with the "soundproof" ability much. will change though thankz :D


I won a pkmn battle against the supposed 'Titan' of the school ^-^ i is a titan nows

Very clever he was, I dont really know the name of the person but he suggested i use gengar for a simple combo to his heracross....(look to my last thread(the closed one)) My opponent saw this coming somehow and taught Heracross Stone Edge. My gengar served no purpose in that battle XD

Do you think i could squeeze a Poliwrath in my team at all? :L im considering it

 

[ToiletRoll]

Guys i put in a new addition, check it out.
