So one day I was bored and I decided to make a NU team, since my NU skills are horrible. Well I took some time and made a NU team, and surprisingly this has gotten 7 wins 0 losses before JCM upset that streak. After that I'd day my win streak is about 65%. Of course, this team can't beat top NU battlers like JCM or Kupo (if you pklay on PS Kupo server you'll know that he's a really good NU player) but when I battle reguarly on PS Main I can usually get a few wins.
Anyway here is the team:
Armaldo @ Leftovers
Trait: Battle Armor
EVs: 4 Atk / 252 Def / 252 SDef
Careful Nature
- Stealth Rock
- Swords Dance
- X-Scissor
- Stone Edge
This guy has no purpose really, except to set up rocks. Sometimes when I'm lucky I can set up Swords Dance too and do a little sweep. Mostly, though, I can survive long enough to set up hazards, and even without the extra 2x Atk power this guy can do some damage.
Ampharos @ Choice Specs
Trait: Static
EVs: 252 HP / 252 SAtk / 4 SDef
Modest Nature
- Volt Switch
- Thunderbolt
- Signal Beam
- Focus Blast
I know everyone thinks Ampharos is ouclassed by Rotom-F, but I was trying something different, and Ampharos really provides some extra bulk Rotom-F needs. With Specs Ampharos does a considerable amount of damage. Vol Switch can do some damage, even nuetral, and then it goes back. T-Bolt is my STAB, and a really good move altogether. Signal Beam and Focus Blast are coverage.
Absol @ Life Orb
Trait: Justified
EVs: 4 HP / 252 Atk / 252 Spd
Jolly Nature
- Swords Dance
- Superpower
- Megahorn
- Sucker Punch
Absol can really pwn if set up correctly. Sucker Punch is baws is you can time it right. Megahorn is for coverage, and Superpower is just my add-on power house move.
Sawk (M) @ Choice Scarf
Trait: Sturdy
EVs: 4 HP / 252 Atk / 252 Spd
Jolly Nature
- Close Combat
- Ice Punch
- Earthquake
- Stone Edge
Fast sweeper. Close Combat is obviously my STAB, Ice Punch for osme nice coverage to some Pokemon. Earthquake is for Electrics and such and Stone Edge is some additional coverage, too.
Misdreavus @ Leftovers
Trait: Levitate
EVs: 252 HP / 156 Def / 100 SDef
Bold Nature
- Calm Mind
- Substitute
- Shadow Ball
- Will-O-Wisp
I was doubtful about Calm Minding Misdreavous at first, but now that I've used it, I can really see the power if you can get at least one Sub and Calm Mind up. Will-O-Wisp is to wreck some Pokemon, enabling me to set up. I know Shadow Ball is useless against normals, which is a HUGE weakness I hope to cover. But usually when that happens I just Will-O-Wisp (Most normals are physical) and then switch.
Beartic @ Life Orb
Trait: Swift Swim
EVs: 252 HP / 252 Atk / 4 SDef
Adamant Nature
- Aqua Jet
- Icicle Crash
- Superpower
- Stone Edge
Beartic is yet another bulky-ish sweeper. Icicle Crash is my main STAB, and when my opponent is pretty weak I can finish it off with a well timed Aqua Jet. Superpower is for other Ice types, and Stone Edge is for flying.
Well there is my second succesful NU team, hope you liked it! :)
