RMT: Team Solar

[chubb-o-wub]

If there's three people with RMT's here, then I guess I should post one as well. This team is going to be a Sunny Day team and it can kick anyone's *** with style.

Roserade@Wise Glasses
Rash*
EV/ 6 HP/ 252 Spatk/ 252 Spd
-Sunny Day
-Solarbeam
-Weather Ball
-HP Ground

For a Roserade, this gets good coverage, only resisted by Pokemon of Fire/Flying or Dragon/Flying in the OU environment, and those have 4x weaknesses I can exploit. And I was wondering if I should put Leaf Storm on it if it can learn it leveling up. HP Ground to hit Heatran and other Steels not named Skarmory(Weather Ball) hard
* - already bred; has this nature and HP Ground at 70 Pwr

Tangrowth@Leftovers
Impish
EV/ 252 HP/ 228 Def/ 28 Spd
-Power Whip
-Knock Off
-Sleep Powder
-Leech Seed

This just seems so awesome on a Sunny Day team. Leech Seed for easy healing, and the rest is standard. May switch out for Donphan.

Heatran@Life Orb
Timid/Modest
EV/ 6 HP/ 252 Spatk/ 252 Spd
-Overheat
-Flamethrower
-Land Power
-Dragon Pulse

On a Suuny Day themed team, there's going to be a lot weak to Fire. This, I hope, would be the cure. Overheat to hit anything that doesn't resist this VERY hard, Flamethrower late in the game, Land Power for coverage and if Roserade fails, and Dragon Pulse for them Dragons. This will get in if I see Specsmence try to Flamethrower Tangrowth, so this beast gets it's boost. Then they'll switch to a counter, and that's when I'll Overheat them to hell.

Jolteon@Leftovers
Timid
EV/ 6 HP/ 252 Spatk/ 252 Spd
-Thunderbolt
-Substitute
-Baton Pass
-Thunder Wave

During the creation of this team, I noticed I was Starmie/Togekiss weak. So I put this in to outspeed and kill it. Subpasses to whoever is in need of it, and Thunder Wave to cripple any fast pokemon or pokemon who rely on speed in general, such as Togekiss. He'll switch in on any Thunder Wave I see coming. May use Electivire instead.

Yanmega@Expert Belt
Modest
EV/ 6 Def/ 252 Spatk/ 252 Spd
-Bug Buzz
-Air Slash
-Protect
-Shadow Ball

This kills all who are prone to it. It's my Heracross counter as it outspeeds it after a Speed Boost and Slashes it. Also kills Psychic pokemon and catches Gengars and such off guard with Shadow Ball. Therefore, it's awesome.

Blissey@Leftovers

EV/ 148 HP/ 252 Def/ 108 Spatk

This isn't a good lead unless it's scarfed. Weavile leads ruin this. Otherwise, good.

I don't see anything Sunny Dayish about this team. It seems like only Roserade and Heatran get a boost from it. Sure, Tangrowth does, too, but that's the standard Tangrowth. If it's in a Sunny Day team, it should be attacking thanks to Chlorophyll's Speed boost.

In my experience with Roserades, they are better used as late-game Sweepers...And if you're worried about those Fir/Fly and Drg/Fly Pokes, HP Rock could give them a very unpleasant surprise...

Tangrowth is a weird Poke to use...My Tangrowth is God in the sun...Leaf Guard prevents it from being statused, it can SleepSeed foes, and wail on others with attacks from Physical and Special sides...

Such an scary critter...Hope no one suspects Heatran and hits you hard with Earth Power or Earthquake instead of your predicted Fire attack...

If so, give E-Vire Fire Punch; or Flamethrower for a Special Set.

Blissey...(-_-)#

Not everything I had hoped for on a Sunny Day team; I had expected at least 2 Fire, 2 Grass, and 2 other (Standard Sunny Day IMO). Only 2 of your Pokemon actually benefit from Sunny Day, when most of the team should; and only 1 Poke actually uses the move. If you're expecting a quick victory out of this, prepare to be disappointed...

I was making a Sunny Day team in which the entire team benefited from it in some way: Victreebel gets a speed boost; Typhlosion gets an amazing power boost w/Petaya, Blaze, and Sunny Day; Houndoom gets to pull off Flamethrower/Solarbeam combos; Weezing gets to WoW and Flamethrower people to death; Shiftry gets a major speed boost; and Salamence gets a strong Fire move along with the rest of it's set...This team is BL and lower except for Salamence, but things may work differently in the OU environment...

Depending on whether Tangrowth has Chlorophyll or Leaf Guard makes a little difference in its moveset: Chlorophyll super-boosts its Speed stat, meaning it should be an attacker; and Leaf Guard can call for a Rest Staller (if I can figure out a set for that)...

Be careful around certain Water types, some people (such as myself) don't have a Water attack on them, meaning they really aren't hindered that much with Sunny Day. Watch out for Specstar/Scarfmie with HP Ground, Jolteon will get azz-***** on that switch-in...

I also noticed that your entire team (except Tangrowth) uses Special Attacks...A Blissey, Cressilia, or Snorlax can easily wall most of the team and just Softboiled/Moonlight/Rest any damage off; Status isn't a problem with those two Pokes either...Figure out where a Physical Sweeper can fit in (Chlorophyll Tangrowth!!!), and go from there...

I give the current team:

Spoiler

A 7.1/10, and a boot to the head.

Don't worry about my rating too much, I don't have a "device" like W4M or Celebi...lol...

You don't really have a need for a sub-passer. Give it attacking moves such as HP Ice and shadow ball.

Bug Buzz and Shadow Ball are redundant. Replace SB with a hidden power (ice?). Make him your lead.

I hate Blissey, and all Blissey users. Looks ok I guess.

Like someone said already, this isn't much of a Sunny Day team. Only Roserade has it so after he's gone, no more sun. A gutsed Staraptor or Swellow would decimate a lot of your team.

 

[chubb-o-wub]

So should I give up on this team?

So should I give up on this team?

I wouldn't say that...It's just better in the BL and lower environment...

It can still fight, it just needs to be better thought out...that's all...

Nicely bred, though I dont reccomend using Sunny Day on her, nor using her as a starter.

Give this sunny day, along with HP Fire and Solarbeam. Watch out for tyranitar if you do, though.

Ouch, smart idea using Flash Fire to cover you fire weakness. Tyranitar can't take the hit, either, but I suggest Fire Blast to 2HKO Blissey

This doesn't REALLY cover your Starmie/ Togekiss weakness. In fact, I think it multiplys your stangely disturbing Blissey weakness. Use Electivire.

Use this as your starter, and try giving it a Focus Sash with Sunny Day over shadow Ball.

Blissey LOLs at your team. But thank god for her being NU, else we would see her as a common threat.

So should I give up on this team?

No. You just need better team building skills when it comes to Sunny Day teams. I'll help you out:

Lead

Bronzong could be a good lead for a Sunny Day team. You can give it Heat Rock so it can set up Sunny Day and it will last for 8 turns. It can also set up Stealth Rocks and Hypnosis things. Besides, people don't know if Bronzong will set up Sunny Day, Rain Dance or Trick Room. Just watch out: the Sun will increase the power of attacks that are SE against Broznong; Fire.

You could also try a Focus Sash Jumpluff.

1) Set up Sunny Day and survive with Focus Sash.
2) Chlorophyll makes you faster, so Sleep Powder them.
3) Do other stuff Jumpluff can do.

Physical Sweeper

A good physical sweeper for Sunny Day teams would be BellyZard. I don't know if you've seen my equation before, so here it is:

Fire Punch + Max Attack (252 EVs and Adamant) + Belly Drum + Blaze + STAB + Sunny Day = OUCH.

Special Sweeper

The best Special Sweeper would probably be Exeggutor. Chlorophyll and high Special Attack are good.

I might add more later.
