okay so I've put together a team that I am looking to use for VGC 2015. Note that I am very new to this, this is the first team I have ever built.
It doesn't really have any team chemistry, its more or less I've whacked 6 pokemon together and I'm still figuring out how they work best together!
If you guys think there is good combinations/chemistry let me know, if you think there's pokemon that would work better with this team let me know or if you think I need to change a few of the builds also let me know! Any help/advice is much appreciated!
Greninja @ Expert Belt
Timid
Protean
31/x/31/31/31/31
252 SpAtt - 252 Speed 4HP
Moveset:
Grass Knot
Dark Pulse
Ice Beam
Scald
This is the main focus of my team I think, I like the coverage it gains with its moveset, being able to hit a lot of pokemon with super effective attacks which are boosted by the Expert Belt, also outspeeds a lot
Absol @ Absolite
Naive (I know, bad nature but its shiny and cbf re breeding)
Justified (Magic Bounce when mega)
x/31/31/31/31/31
252 SpAtt - 252 Speed
Moveset:
Thunderbolt
Sucker Punch
Fire Blast
Play Rough
This was a gift from a friend, I need a better moveset on it as sucker punch and play rough are essentially wasted with this being a special attacker. I like to lead with it if I predict a prankster lead, otherwise I use my other mega
Aerodactyl @ Aerodactylite
Jolly
Pressure (Tough Claws when mega)
31/31/31/x/31/31
252 Att - 252 Speed
Moveset:
Sky drop
Crunch
Stone Edge
Earthquake
I like usually leading this with my greninja, two of the fastest pokemon together allows for me to get some good quick damage in. Very vulnerable to priority bullet punch and aqua jet though
Bisharp @ Life Orb
Adamant
Defiant
31/31/31/31/x/31
252 HP - 252 Att
Moveset:
Iron Head
Sucker Punch
Knock Off
Protect
Pretty generic set I think, very weak to fighting
Sylveon @ Choice Specs
Modest
Pixilate
31/x/31/31/31/31
252 SpAtt - 252 HP
Moveset:
Psyshock
Protect
Shadow Ball
Hyper Voice
Hyper voice is the main offence of this set, pretty much just spam that
Goodra @ Assault Vest
Modest
Gooey
31/31/31/31/31/31
252 SpAtt - 252 SpDef
Moveset:
Thunderbolt
Blizzard
PowerWhip
Dragon Pulse
Okay so this is the tank of the team, aimed to take solid hits while dishing out a bit of damage in return.
