[RATE MY TEAM] Rags to Riches???

[beastmoose]

So yeah I've been totally bored lately so I made this team on showdown just completely for fun, and wanted to know what you think. This is just a team I use to mess around with in VGC, and Each Pokemon has its own gimmick about it, so I was wondering if we could try to make this go anywhere without getting super competitive.


Hitmontop (M) @ Life Orb
Ability: Technician
EVs: 124 HP / 252 Atk / 88 Def / 44 SpD
Adamant Nature
- Fake Out
- Protect
- Bullet Punch
- Mach Punch

I absolutely love this little guy. The reason he is special is he is an all-priority pokemon. True, his only true attacking moves are mach punch and bullet punch (mostly because sucker punch is from a different gen.), but his fake out support and the fact his mach punch gets 80 base power plus life orb, I love this man. WEAKNESS: QUICK GUARD PLZ NO


Landorus-Therian (M) @ Choice Scarf
Ability: Intimidate
EVs: 4 HP / 252 Atk / 252 Spe
Jolly Nature
- Earthquake
- Rock Slide
- Superpower
- U-turn

I gotta have atleast some competitive power, right? :D Scarf gives him the ability to outspeed greninjas who stay in on him, and the rest of the set I thoroughly enjoy


Heatran @ Air Balloon
Ability: Flash Fire
EVs: 4 HP / 252 SpA / 252 Spe
Modest Nature
- Heat Wave
- Earth Power
- Protect
- Flash Cannon

Same as Lando, gotta have some presence. This guy could use some help, mostly in the item department. Balloon is good, but just one Fake Out away from eating an Earthquake.


Dewgong @ Rocky Helmet
Ability: Thick Fat
EVs: 252 HP / 68 Def / 188 SpD
Bold Nature
- Stockpile
- Ice Beam
- Rest
- Substitute

Stockpile, man. Stockpile. The item slot could use some moving around, but he has just enough Sp.Def. to BARELY take a T-Bolt from a Thundorus. I dont want to run Rest Talk, because it feels like, especially on this set, giving up a move slot for just a 25% chance of using a move.


Beheeyem @ Choice Specs
Ability: Analytic
EVs: 252 HP / 252 SpA / 4 SpD
Modest Nature
- Psyshock
- Thunderbolt
- Energy Ball
- Signal Beam

A dedicated special sweeper. Can't switch in on much, but he can 2HKO a Def. Cresselia after one Calm Mind with Signal Beam. Do what you must with him.


Probopass @ Leftovers
Ability: Sturdy
EVs: 252 HP / 4 Def / 252 SpD
Calm Nature
- Thunder Wave
- Protect
- Earth Power
- Pain Split

Okay, so tbh Probopass is one of my favorite Pokemon ever. Seriously, check this guy out, I love him. But I feel like he isn't needed on the team. He can slow down enemies, but his recovery is lousy and I already ahve 2 other Pokemon running Ground-moves, while he is also sucking mu my Lefties. He can do work, but still.

Weaknesses
- Too many Ground-Moves
- Hardly any Ice moves
- ABSOLUTELY NO WATER, DARK, FAIRY, GHOST, OR DRAGON MOVES

Strengths
Probably the most fun team you'll ever play with :P :D kappa
