Hello, was lookin for some help with a team i had been playing with, it seems to be falling short and i dont really know where it keeps doing so.
The team is for VGC2016 format:
Xerneas @ Power Herb
Ability: Fairy Aura
EVs: 4 HP / 4 Def / 248 SpA / 252 Spe
Timid Nature
- Dazzling Gleam
- Geomancy
- Protect
- Hidden Power [Ground]
This is a Xerneas i obtained in a giveaway, I really enjoy using the Fairy type, and this Xerneas seems to be my Ace! Id like to keep him in the build if possible. Also as for hidden power ground, it came with this from the giveaway and i mostly use it to ohko or 2hko Primal Groudon.
Kyogre-Primal @ Blue Orb
Ability: Primordial Sea
EVs: 248 HP / 252 SpA / 8 SpD
Modest Nature
- Ice Beam
- Protect
- Thunder
- Water Spout
Another pokemon i got from a giveaway, EV spread is just basic sp, atk and hp/sp.Def for survivability, although ive been having some synergy issues with this and the rest of my team. One of the most notable things with this pokemon is that it was able to tank a calm mind Primal Kyogre's thunder attack twice, albeit with very little Hp afterwards.
Ferrothorn @ Lum Berry
Ability: Iron Barbs
EVs: 248 HP / 8 Atk / 252 Def
Adamant Nature
- Gyro Ball
- Power Whip
- Protect
- Thunder Wave
Used as a counter to fairy, and i had amazing resources available to me in the form of N's Ferroseed from Black2/White2 when breeding this! Ive been able to take out a Xerneas with Genomancy active in 2 hits with Gyro Ball, with Lum Berry as item to stop moves like Hypnosis
Clefable @ Sitrus Berry
Ability: Unaware
EVs: 248 HP / 8 SpA / 252 SpD
Calm Nature
- Follow Me
- Magic Coat
- Moonblast
- Moonlight
This i was experimenting with. Originally i added it as a counterpick to Dark Void Smeargle, but i feel like there could be way better pokemon to use. Follow me to drag attacks away from the main attacker which is out at the moment, and moonlight to heal afterwards. Moonblast is there so it has at least 1 attack, which does gain STAB.
Landorus-Therian @ Life Orb
Ability: Intimidate
EVs: 252 Atk / 4 SpD / 252 Spe
Adamant Nature
- Earthquake
- Knock Off
- Protect
- Superpower
Another giveaway pokemon i obtained, mostly i use it to cover up my steel and fairy types on the team, and to use knock off with a bit more damage than normal, sometimes enough to defeat a ghost or psychic type.
Mawile-Mega @ Mawilite
Ability: Huge Power
EVs: 248 HP / 252 Atk / 8 SpD
Adamant Nature
- Stone Edge
- Rock Slide
- Protect
- Sucker Punch
Well, i needed a mega and Kangaskan wasnt working with my playstyle for some reason, so i tried this. Its strong but it usually dies quickly, VERY quickly to a Primal Groudon. Its main purpose is to sucker punch when needed with rock slide as a coverup to fire pokemon.
My win/lose ratio with this on showdown is about....30%(Win)/70%(Loss) and my preferred playstyle is field control with powerful attacks.
I would of used a Primal Groudon with this, but i do not have a good one at all to use...the only other competative legend i have is a Mega Rayquaza.
I didnt save any matches from showdown as i didnt even know i could (very very new to competative battling), and this is my first real try of creating a compeative team to use. All criticism is welcomed, so please give it a look and tell me where i went wrong. Thanks <3
Edit: After practicing more with this....i noticed my win loss rate is even lower, about 10%(win)/90%(loss)....=/ somethin is seriously wrong with it....but i just cant find it...
