Volcarona @ Leftovers Ability: Flame Body EVs: 148 HP / 108 Def / 252 Spe Timid Nature - Quiver Dance - Fiery Dance - Bug Bite - Psychic Excadrill @ Focus Sash Ability: Mold Breaker EVs: 100 HP / 156 Atk / 252 Spe Jolly Nature - Swords Dance - Earthquake - Iron Head - Rapid Spin Tangrowth @ Assault Vest Ability: Regenerator EVs: 252 HP / 148 SpA / 108 SpD Modest Nature - Knock Off - Leaf Storm - Sludge Bomb - Giga Drain My current set ideas
That looks good. Swords Dance is probably one of the best moves I've seen (saw a person able to use five and then one-hit KO everyone else on the opposition.) Also, about that Quick Feet Jolteon idea, I've been looking some stuff up, and most movesets it's good with aren't allowed due to 1. status effects or 2. substitutes. Maybe we could change it to something else? And should we keep it as an idea or scrap it?
Hope you meant Bug BUZZ for Volc Instead of Leaf Storm on Tang, maybe we should go with HP Ice or something? This team is looking mighty weak to SD Garchomp. And I feel like we should have more SpDef investment, otherwise, we can't very reliably switch into Greninja pre-ash form safely: 252 SpA Choice Specs Greninja Dark Pulse vs. 252 HP / 108 SpD Assault Vest Tangrowth: 160-190 (39.6 - 47%) -- 39.8% chance to 2HKO after Stealth Rock And if Gren transforms against what we currently have now, it'd be game over. I think we should get a water to finish this FWG core. I was potentially thinking either Gyarados or, if we want a better gren switchin, Primarina.
Seems like you’ve got only until midnight PST today to make the team! Wolf’s whole post is here. You can do it! \o/ @luxuryluxray @Shadria Nickname Squad, it seems like we each get get 2 mons to name. Don’t forget to ping us when you’re done with the team, competitive buddies
I don't think we miss out on any important KO's with Tang if we go fully SpDef on Tangrowth do we? Because here's what I was imagining for the team based off of what Apawn has so far: Volcarona @ Leftovers Ability: Flame Body EVs: 148 HP / 108 Def / 252 Spe Timid Nature - Quiver Dance - Fiery Dance - Bug Buzz - Psychic Excadrill @ Focus Sash Ability: Mold Breaker EVs: 100 HP / 156 Atk / 252 Spe Jolly Nature - Swords Dance - Earthquake - Iron Head - Rapid Spin Tangrowth @ Assault Vest Ability: Regenerator EVs: 252 HP / 4 SpA / 252 SpD Sassy Nature - Knock Off - Hidden Power Ice - Sludge Bomb - Giga Drain Primarina @ Choice Specs Ability: Torrent EV's: 248 HP / 252 SpA / 8 SpD Modest Nature - Hydro Pump - Moonblast - Psychic - Scald I dunno about Jolteon on this team, although I think having a decently speedy dragon would be nice to finish off the Fairy/Dragon/Steel core. We also don't have a Stealth Rocker yet. Maybe we could fit in Garchomp? And... I've been thinking about using Mega Scizor over Excadrill. What do you think? It still defogs, but outside of that could use a Swords Dance set if we wanted to.
I propose a female Primarina named Nebula and a female Volcarona named Shimy @luxuryluxray @Shadria if you okay with them you can choose the other ones
Thanks for the ping! I'll nickname Tangrowth because there still seems to be some discussion about whether or not the others will be used. I wanna call it Spaghet lol
We could go for Salamance ( which could both be a fast dragon and the defogger or go moxie and zstone)
Maybe. But at the very least we shoud definitely have some sort of hazard setter. That's why I said Garchomp, but maybe we could fit that in last somewhere if Salamence works better.
Here's my idea for a Garchomp moveset: Stealth Rock (your ideas) Iron Tail (to cover weaknesses) (can be learned through Move Tutoring and breeding) Dragon Claw (for STA Earthquake It has a great Attack stat, so I tried to pick physical moves for it? Sorry for submitting literally ten minutes before Saturday, or being late.
Nah, you're fine. I was thinking that set at first but.... well, you'll see. Sorry guys, right now for me it's like, 5 minutes til Saturday, so I kinda finished a team on my part: Shimy (Volcarona) @ Leftovers Ability: Flame Body EVs: 148 HP / 108 Def / 252 Spe Timid Nature - Quiver Dance - Fiery Dance - Bug Buzz - Psychic Spaghet (Tangrowth) @ Assault Vest Ability: Regenerator EVs: 252 HP / 4 SpA / 252 SpD Sassy Nature - Knock Off - Hidden Power [Ice] - Sludge Bomb - Giga Drain Nebula (Primarina) @ Choice Specs Ability: Torrent EVs: 248 HP / 252 SpA / 8 SpD Modest Nature - Hydro Pump - Moonblast - Psychic - Scald Garchomp @ Firium Z Ability: Rough Skin EVs: 252 Atk / 4 SpA / 252 Spe Naive Nature - Stealth Rock - Earthquake - Dragon Claw - Fire Blast Scizor @ Scizorite Ability: Light Metal EVs: 248 HP / 44 Atk / 16 Def / 136 SpD / 64 Spe Impish Nature - Bullet Punch - Swords Dance - Roost - U-turn Mandibuzz (F) @ Leftovers Ability: Overcoat EVs: 248 HP / 252 Def / 8 SpD Impish Nature - Foul Play - Roost - Defog - U-turn Like I said, I know we have didn't have much time, so I tried to improvise and finish a team before we ran outta time. I know we probably aren't supposed to do such a thing since it's a team effort, but guys, how does this look to you all? I'm still keeping Mence and Excadrill in mind for last minute changes.
Let's finish the nicknames then! @Shadria or anyone else who wants to do it. I'll name the Garchomp Nado. Other mons left are Scizor and Mandibuzz.
Mind if I join the nickname squad (and is it too late as well)? I'm thinking Kaulas for the Mandibuzz. (Lithuanian for bone) Apologies if someone else wanted to nickname it.
Since @Shadria doesn't seem to have shown up, I propose Zack for Scizor to get this over with, unless she does show up and chooses a name ^^
Sounds nice. Now our team is complete! Once the battle is over, however... I'll be gone for a long time after this, and may be able to come back on the 27th and 28th. After that, I'll be gone until August. Sorry I couldn't help more!
Ah, it's all right. Thanks for contributing and trying to help us out though! All right, I'm gonna potentially battle FireSpartan sometime in the next hour, so if anyone wants to watch, it would be good to stick around. Truth be told tho, I am kinda nervous. As far as battling goes, it's been a long time since I've had a lot of people depending on me for this win.
