Then I suppose you can do EV training (vitamins) in def to get them equivalent, which you then use a reset bag after evolution. at 20... it should be 20 evs per stat point I believe. I would just vitamin up what you need at 19. I don't think they will vary by a whole lot, so a handful of Irons should do the trick. | ||

Try this out vs Trick Rotoms: Black Sludge Roserade. He actually doesn't mind getting the Scarf they probably carry. And Rotom will get hurt by the Black Sludge. | ||

And Rotom will get hurt by the Black Sludge. Hmmm that's a neat idea. I've usually been switching into my assault vest donphan so they lose rest/WoW now that I'm not so shocked by it. It just wrecked me the first time I saw it and my poor blissey got scarfed. What type of set / role does roserade usually run? I love trying new pokemon! :D + Show Spoiler [My current team for reference] + Blissey (F) @ Leftovers Ability: Natural Cure EVs: 4 HP / 252 Def / 252 SDef Calm Nature - Aromatherapy - Soft-Boiled - Toxic - Flamethrower Skarmory @ Leftovers Ability: Sturdy EVs: 252 HP / 252 Def / 4 SDef Impish Nature - Spikes - Roost - Brave Bird - Whirlwind Mawile @ Mawilite Ability: Intimidate EVs: 252 HP / 252 Atk / 4 Spd Adamant Nature - Fire Fang - Swords Dance - Play Rough - Sucker Punch Tyranitar @ Leftovers Ability: Sand Stream EVs: 252 HP / 100 Atk / 156 SDef Adamant Nature - Flamethrower - Stealth Rock - Stone Edge - Crunch Greninja @ Life Orb Ability: Protean EVs: 4 HP / 252 SAtk / 252 Spd Timid Nature - Scald - Taunt - Spikes - Ice Beam Donphan @ Assault Vest Ability: Sturdy EVs: 252 HP / 252 SDef / 4 Spd Careful Nature - Earthquake - Ice Shard - Rapid Spin - Stone Edge | ||

Roserade @ Life Orb/Black Sludge Trait: Natural Cure EVs: 252 SAtk / 252 Spe / 4 HP Timid Nature - Leaf Storm/Energy Ball/Giga Drain - Sludge Bomb - Shadow Ball/Extrasensory/Hidden Power[Fire]/Hidden Power[Ice] - Sleep Powder/Rest Leaf Storm off of 125 base SpA is going to hurt a lot. Sludge Bomb for poison STAB helps to deal with other grass types + fairies. Ghost is a great attacking move this gen and is probably worth using as your 3rd attacking move. Extrasensory helps to deal with opposing poison types. Hidden Power Fire helps to deal with Ferrothorn, HP Ice helps with Gliscor and Landorus and dragons. Natural Cure + Rest gives him a lot of longevity if you wanna go that route and he can actually hit pretty hard. While he can also put stuff to Sleep if you wanna go hyper offense instead. If you wanna work with having Blissey for cleric, the guy also has Technician to work with. And with his base 125 SpA, he can abuse those 90 BP Hidden Powers more than anyone. If you are going Technician though, put Magical Leaf over Leaf Storm as it never misses and becomes 135 BP after the Technician buff and STAB. Roserade also has a surprisingly healthy amount of status moves if you wanted to give it more of a utility role. Roserade has access to Spikes, Toxic Spikes, Sleep Powder, Stun Spore, Leech Seed. | ||

Wow, this is super helpful, thanks!! The set on smogon was a specially defensive one, but I kinda like your idea of an offensive one more. Will likely try swapping greninja for it. Time to start breeding  | ||

Well I am trying to go for a perfect one so I guess I could give a male and female pair as well. I will likely leave myself on starting around 6PM EST today | ||

+ Show Spoiler + Smeargle @ Focus Sash Ability: Own Tempo EVs: 252 HP / 252 Spd Jolly Nature - Spore - Baton Pass - Shell Smash - Magic Coat Nidoking (M) @ Life Orb Ability: Sheer Force EVs: 252 Spd / 252 SAtk / 4 HP Modest Nature - Earth Power - Sludge Wave - Ice Beam - Thunderbolt Scizor @ Leftovers Ability: Technician EVs: 252 Atk / 252 HP / 4 SDef Adamant Nature - Bullet Punch - Pursuit - Roost - U-turn Rotom-Wash @ Leftovers Ability: Levitate EVs: 252 SDef / 252 HP / 4 SAtk Calm Nature - Hydro Pump - Thunderbolt - Will-O-Wisp - Substitute Trevenant @ Sitrus Berry Ability: Harvest EVs: 252 HP / 136 Spd / 120 Def Impish Nature - Shadow Claw - Leech Seed - Substitute - Will-O-Wisp Excadrill @ Leftovers Ability: Mold Breaker EVs: 252 Atk / 252 HP / 4 SDef Adamant Nature - Earthquake - Rapid Spin - Rock Slide - Swords Dance Smeargle lead, smashpass to Nidoking. If I'm playing against a hazard lead or what not I can Magic Coat to even out the hazards game since I don't really set any of my own. With +2 Nidoking pretty much 1hko's everything aha. If that fails I still have four solid Pokemon to back me up. | ||

scizor pursuit -> swords dance you don't need pursuit on this team and swords lets scizor sweep lategame consider leftovers -> iron plate / scizorite iron plate lets him bluff band, and scizorite buffs his defensive stats for easier setup rotom-w substitute -> volt switch volt switch lets rotom-w build momentum for your team consider thunderbolt -> pain split tbolt has its uses but pain split is really good with rotom-w's low hp pool consider 252 SDef / 252 HP / 4 SAtk Calm -> 252 HP / 252 Def / 4 SpA Bold defensive rotom checks a lot of relevant threats like talonflame, azumarill, and aegislash. SpD is ok too but imo not as good trevenant why 136 Spe? you can outspeed wobb and skarm but that doesn't really accomplish anything. 76 outspeeds uninvested scizor/ttar and 84 outspeeds 8 Spe scizor consider shadow claw -> rock slide to deal with talonflame and volcarona excadrill 252 Atk / 252 HP / 4 SDef -> 4 HP / 252 Atk / 252 Spe 252 Spe lets excadrill outspeed a lot of threats, most notably rotom-w and opposing excadrill. also adamant gyarados, swords scizor, smeargle, etc consider leftovers -> air balloon or life orb smashpass is a little gimmicky though; overall your team is pretty slow so if smash pass fails you're pretty screwed. for example talonflame and volcarona both sweep through your team pretty easily, especially since you don't have rocks | ||

I can try balloon for a bit, I've never really played it enough to get a good feel of it. Scarf Ditto can be handled by Rotom-W or Scizor depending on what move they lock in on. That's most likely going to be Ice Beam to take out my own Nidoking so I can switch to Rotom-W and Hydro Pump or if my Nidoking is low just let him die for the free switch. @Dead9 I was already typing my post before I saw your response. Can't respond now but I'll read it over and then post. | ||
