I hate Mega Kangaskhan. I feel like Mega Kangaskhan ruined online battling for a lot of us; which is why I try to build my teams that could easily shut down Mega Kangashan. Mega Swampert one of those pokemon that could take Kangaskhan out.
Swampert @ Swampertite
Ability: Damp
Level: 50
- Low Kick
- Earthquake
- Protect
- Waterfall
With Mega Swamperts Swift Swim ability the Pokemon could out speed and absolutely terrify the opposition. Mega Swampert is only weak to grass so I could utilize him as clean-up for the end of the battle or use him to scout out the opponents Pokemon. [1]Low Kick Low kick is a guaranteed OHKO against a Mega Kangaskhan. If I see a Kangaskhan in the opponents party I could protect expecting the fake out and unless a devastating OHKO to the opponents khan. [2] Earthquake is there for stab however I might switch it to Avalanche [3] Waterfall is another stab move for Mega Swampert and it gives me a chance to cause the opponents pokemon to flinch.
Politoed @ Leftovers
Ability: Drizzle
Level: 50
EVs: 12 HP / 12 Def / 236 SpA / 4 SpD / 244 Spe
Modest Nature
- Rain Dance
- Scald
- Hydro Pump
- Ice Beam
This is Alex Ogloza’s Politoed. When I was watching his review of his championship team it worked extremely well with mine. However I couldn’t put a choice item on this Politode and had to settle for leftovers.
Kabutops @ Choice Band
Ability: Swift Swim
Level: 50
EVs: 252 Atk / 4 SpA / 252 Spe
Naughty Nature
- Stone Edge
- Waterfall
- Night Slash
- Ice Beam
I’m still debating whether or not to change out Kabutops for Ludicolo but I wanted to try it out. Kabutops is possibly one of the strongest most versatile swift swim pokemon out there. It has a large move pool to choose from. Kabutops is possibly one of the strongest most versatile swift swim pokemon out there. It has a large move pool to choose from. Kabutops is possibly one of the strongest most versatile swift swim pokemon out there. It has a large move pool to choose from. Although Kabutops has a lot of weaknesses for being a water rock pokemon but the pokemon is very fast and can dish out a lot of damage. Kabutops I could pair it up with Politode or start out With Mega Swampert Politode and leave him to clean up. [1] Night Slash is there to counter threats like Mega Metagross, Alakazam and other psychic pokemon. [2] Waterfall is there to get off a fast strong stab and like Swampert it could also cause pokemon to flintch [3] Ice beam there cause Kabutops could out speed most grass pokemon in the rain and since I have choice band it shouldn’t have much problem OHKO grass pokemon. [4] Stone edge is there to deal with the Talonflame and Mega Charizard Y. Even though Talonflame has Gale Wings I should still survive the atk and finish it off with a fast strong stone edge.
Ferrothorn @ Rocky Helmet
Ability: Iron Barbs
Level: 50
EVs: 252 HP / 172 Atk / 84 Def
Brave Nature
IVs: 0 Spe
- Gyro Ball
- Power Whip
- Leech Seed
- Protect
Ferrothorn is my fairy and grass counter. This is my safe swap if I don’t like the match up I’m in. This is a standard Ferrothorn set I’m still playing around with it and thinking of switching this out for a life orb Scizor.
Hydreigon @ Choice Specs
Ability: Levitate
Level: 50
EVs: 252 SpA / 4 SpD / 252 Spe
Timid Nature
- Dark Pulse
- Taunt
- Draco Meteor
- Earth Power
This Hydreigon moveset works nicely it has a lot of common resistants so if I don’t like a certain situation like Ferrothorn I could keep Hydreigon back. This pokemon also counters perish trap teams nicely [1] Dark Pulse is a powerfull dark move it could take down a mega Metagross as well as a mega Gengar. This move also causes pokemon to flintch [2] Taunt is there to try to shutdown a perish singer or even stop pokemon like cerselia from setting up [3] Draco Meteor is probably one of the strongest dragon moves out there. Although it drops special defense down a stage 2 Dracos should be enough to take down most pokemon. [4] Earth Power is there to try to get a chance to lower an opponents SpD. It’s a safe move for electric pokemon since I’m very weak to electric.
Talonflame @ Choice Scarf
Ability: Gale Wings
Level: 50
EVs: 252 Atk / 4 SpD / 252 Spe
Jolly Nature
- Flare Blitz
- Brave Bird
- Steel Wing
- U-turn
Talonflame’s Gale wings is so OP and a choice scarf guaranties that it will move first if it doesn’t use brave bird. Since a lot of Talonflames are running adamant nature I picked jolly so it could out speed those Talonflames. [1] U-Turn makes Talonflame a safe lead even though its not the strongest move still one of the better scout moves other than volt switch. [2]Brave bird is obviously there to work with the gale wings ability [3] Flare Blitz is there for coverage since I’m weak against grass. [4]Steel Wing I know isn’t the strongest steel type moves but I wanted another pokemon to deal damage to fairies. Steel wing does OHKO a few fairy types but if I could get some damage off on it then finish it off with Ferrothorn or another pokemon that would make me happy.
I’m open to any ideas changes comments that you guys have about this team. If anyone likes it the way it is feel free to use it.
