Hi everyone,
Just got into competitive team building, and would really appreciate any advice on my team, Thanks!
I also need help on deciding 2 more special based members for the team.
Mindset of team: Bulky! Tanky! (with lots of resistance) + Hitting like a truck!
-----------------------------------
UPDATED (again... had to get rid of rest/sleep talk):
Alright, was just trying this team with quite some success:
https://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/ou-136154182
https://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/ou-136263995
This video pretty much showed the weakness in my team. Got nothing to counter Rotom Wash
Ferrothorn (M) @ Rocky Helmet
Ability: Iron Barbs
EVs: 252 HP / 48 Def / 208 SDef
Impish Nature
- Leech Seed
- Stealth Rock
- Power Whip
- Toxic
*Lead to set up traps
Gyarados (M) @ Leftovers
Ability: Intimidate
EVs: 252 Atk / 6 Def / 252 Spd
Adamant Nature
- Dragon Dance
- Waterfall
- Earthquake
- Ice Fang
*DD Sweeper, Ice Fang for Garchomp, Venusaur & other Dragons
Aggron-Mega (M) @ Aggronite
Ability: Filter
EVs: 252 HP / 6 Def / 252 SDef
Careful Nature
- Dragon Tail
- Earthquake
- Power-Up Punch
- Heavy Slam
*Main Tank
Rhyperior (M) @ Assault Vest
Ability: Solid Rock
EVs: 120 HP / 252 Atk / 138 SDef
Adamant Nature
- Dragon Tail
- Earthquake
- Megahorn
- Rock Blast
*Usual switch-in for Fire opponents against my Ferrothorn, Sub-Tank
Garchomp (M) @ Life Orb
Ability: Rough Skin
EVs: 6 HP / 252 Atk / 252 Spd
Jolly Nature
- Outrage
- Earthquake
- Stone Edge
- Swords Dance
*Monster Sweeper
Noivern (M) @ Expert Belt
Ability: Infiltrator
EVs: 6 Def / 252 SAtk / 252 Spd
Timid Nature
- Draco Meteor
- Flamethrower
- Focus Blast
- U-turn
*Revenge Killer, Star of the team, U-Turn for retreat
-----------------------------------
I realized that my biggest issue was dealing with Mega Venusaurs, as I don't have any super effective physical attacks against him (except for Gyarados' Ice Fang, but would need a DD in order to hurt it, and would be OHKOed by solar beam)
Noivern was pretty amazing as a Revenge Killer until I met Choice Scarf Garchomp, and got blasted off the roof. Would still prefer over Dragonite for its speed I think.
Any help is greatly welcomed!
