Hey TL!

This is just a fun blog about my "competitive" team. No bashing... (unless a perfectly good reason is introduced) and maybe post your pokemanz team.

1. Swampert: Leftovers
Stealth Rock Protect Ice Beam Earthquake
2. Gengar: Choice Scarf/Shell Bell (normally the shell, considering that it's a sleeper)
Hypnosis Dream Eater T-bolt Shadow Ball
3. Arceus: A plate (trying to find an icicle plate and giving it energy ball or a grass type plate and keep ice beam since im weak in that aspect)
JUDGEMENT Recover Ice Beam/Energy Ball Extremespeed
4. Heatran: Choice Specs (it's special right???)
Fire Blast Earth Power Magma Storm Iron Head (for the lulz w/ flinch)
5. Giratina: Undecided... still working on it
Shadow Sneak D-Claw (next 2 moves are still undecided) Shadow Claw Giga Impact
6. Lucario: Probs a Fist Plate
Aura Sphere Close Combat <--- some reason, it's special and attack are the SAME... Swords Dance Extremespeed

Hope you enjoy, recommend anything like items or moves... and I want to see your teams. Enjoy!

? Have you ever played competitive pokemon on shoddy / pokemon online? That team would be classified as "uber" so it would probably get rolled by other uber teans since you have it mixed with OU, etc..

This. Your team is basically too good for OU but not good enough for Uber

EDIT: Too good in the sense that the pokemon themselves are too good. The sets definitely need work

Not only that, but it's really not that good at all. SpecTran using Iron Head AND Magma Storm?? Dream Eater on Gengar?

I don't mean to come off as rude, but you really should check out a website like Smogon and see what you can learn. As it is, you don't seem to really know what you're doing, to be perfectly honest.

Man you should do some research into your team, take heed of the other posters. your team consists of pokemon from two different tiers. this is at best a fun team to use on battle rev or DS wifi. check out smogon, cause you cant "compete" with the current line up.

A standard OU team can roll this ; ) you have no rapid spin either... gl i forsee a short lived interest in "competitive" pokemon unless you figure a bunch of stuff out. your line up is all special based attackers and what i would guess is choice band lucario... nvm fist plate huh... ok ya so your move sets are all wonkey too. id start reading up if you wanna chance to win.
its called a Tuque damnit!

for the lulz... my friend told me to get magma storm consdering he said it was its "signature" move. im using fire plume instead... YES IRON HEAD. for the lulz. the dream eater is incase it gets to low hp, but im thinking of ice beam instead.

Holy shit, for real? I havent played in a pretty long time but I never would have imagined smeargle getting banned. Jirachi is a surprise as well but not as much.

lies

my team of
Swampert [standard stealth rock mixpert] / Celebi [perish song variant] / Heatran [scarfed] / Infernape [standard physical-oriented mixape] / Gyarados [Taunt/DD] / Togekiss [standard]
was pretty much invincible back when I played a couple months ago

Just do the classic Azelf self-destruct opener.
It's pretty much kills one thing.

I think my old competitive team was Azelf, Blissey, Metagross, Togekiss, and the last two were whatever I wanted.

I forget.

But I'd be so down to some pokeman duels if anyone wants in, I think I'm still rather decent.

Hypnosis/DE rofl I haven't seen that in a while.

And yeah, Arceus and Giratina are Uber tier so.... "competitive" haha

Usually when you post a pokemon team, it goes:

Pokemon @Hold Item
Nature / EV Spread / IV Spread if applicable (e.g. 0 IV speed for gyro ball)
- move
- move
- move
- move

well there seems to be no more ban list at all which is odd cause in the summer there most certainly was, ive talked to a friend who plays still and has said with the new games coming out (soulsilver/heartgold/black/white) the way poke's are trained (EV/IV) isnt the same and most of the advice i could have given is probably no longer up to date.

WOW they finally moved salamence to uber lol bout time gogo smogon.

For what its worth my OU team (last game played platinum), all of them IV and EV trained. I highly recommend you start farming ditto's one of every nature if you plan on IV breeding, it will make your life much easyer. As will having atleast 1 pokemon infected with Pokerus at all times.

Starmie - Mild - Splash Plate
- rapid spin , recover, thunderbolt, surf (no hydropump cause my rng is shit and it seems to miss A LOT)

Scizor - Adamant - Choice Band
- Pursuit, Quick Attack, Bullet Punch, U-Turn

Togekiss - Naughty (one of the only kinda bad natures, its hard to breed T.T) - Leftovers
- Roost, Thunder wave, Aura Sphere, Air Slash (obvi need a flinch kiss!)

Mamoswine - Jolly - Lum berry
- Stealth Rock, Ice Shard, Earthquake, Protect

Zapdos - Bold - Light Clay
- Thunder wave, Discharge, Roost, Light Screen

As my 6th spot used to be salamence as he was still OU at the time. Id say the most logical guy I have trained to fill the spot is

Kingdra - Modest - Damp Rock - Hydro Pump, Raindance, Dragon Pulse, Substitute

I dont know where my lil binder is that has all of the EV/IV spreads, but if you played you can really tell what direction I looked to each poke for by the item and moves. I tried to have a good balance of special and physical attackers with support moves. While Togekiss and Scizor allows me to sweep with scary efficiency. Obviously have rapid spin, stealth rock and thunder wave all ready to go.

Not invincible but was pretty damn good when I stopped playing. A lot of being able to win in the "competitive" scene is being able to read your opponent and changing in and out at the right moments to minimize damage or maximize it. Have some other sidelined pokes that are trained (IV/EV) sitting in the box.

Gengar
Houndoom
Lucario
Ninjask
Infernape
Fortress
Snorlax
Tyrannitar
Tentacruel
Skarmory

Yes i put way to much time into playing pokemon lol. but hey i was bord!
