So an LC team... well, I am horrible at teambuilding. So prepare for a cringfest.


Tarroseed (Ferroseed) @ Eviolite
Ability: Iron Barbs
Level: 5
Shiny: Yes
EVs: 36 Atk / 188 Def / 228 SpD / 56 HP
Impish Nature
- Bullet Seed
- Spikes
- Stealth Rock
- Thunder Wave

Hazard setter/lead. Bullet seed 2HKOs (If I'm lucky) offensive threats like Staryu and Chinchou. Spikes and Stealth Rock are the hazards that can take the Focus Sash off Abra, Chimchar, Cleffa, and Diglett. And Thunder Wave cripples common mons like Vullaby and Pawniard that resist Bullet Seed.


Spoooooky (Gastly) @ Choice Specs
Ability: Levitate
Level: 5
Shiny: Yes
EVs: 40 HP / 196 SpA / 76 SpD / 196 Spe
Timid Nature
IVs: 0 Atk
- Sludge Bomb
- Shadow Ball
- Energy Ball
- Thunderbolt

Special sweeper. Choice Specs makes sure I deal quite a bit of damage. Shadow Ball and Sludge Bomb (which has a nice chance to poison) are great STAB moves. Energy Ball checks Wooper, Shellos, Staryu, and more. Thunderbolt helps with.... only Flying types really... I need a replacement for that tbh. Gastly also works as a spinblocker.


Elmo (Magby) @ Life Orb
Ability: Flame Body
Level: 5
EVs: 20 HP / 236 Atk / 252 Spe
Jolly Nature
- Flare Blitz
- Thunder Punch
- Mach Punch
- Will-O-Wisp

Physical sweeper. Flare Blitz OHKOs Ferroseed and is the main STAB move to go for. Thunder Punch OHKOs Mantyke and Wingull and is good coverage. Mach Punch is perfect Pawniard coverage, while doing lots to glass cannons like Bellsprout on Sun teams. Will-O-Wisp is just GREAT for crippling Timburr and Mienfoo. Supporting the next member on this team....


SilverRibs (Pawniard) @ Chople Berry
Ability: Defiant
Level: 5
Shiny: Yes
EVs: 4 HP / 236 Atk / 36 Def / 196 SpD / 36 Spe
Adamant Nature
- Sucker Punch
- Iron Head
- Swords Dance
- Brick Break

Pawniard is one of the most common pokemon in LC right now, for a good reason too. Swords Dance + Sucker Punch is great for revenge killing and just normal sweeping. Chople Berry allows it to live a Mach Punch from just about anything, allowing it to kill in return. (Dat Attack stat tho) Iron Head is the best Steel STAB move it gets and destroys Fairy types like Spritzee and Flabebe. Swords Dance is great for boosting that Attack to insane levels and puts Pawniard in a good position to SUCKAAAAAAA PAUNCH! Brick Break deals lots against other Pawniard and does well against other mons too.


John Tena (Riolu) @ Berry Juice
Ability: Prankster
Level: 5
EVs: 196 Atk / 116 Def / 196 SpD
Adamant Nature
- High Jump Kick
- Rest
- Sleep Talk
- Swords Dance

I didn't want to go for the annoying Copycat + Prankster + Roar set. I didn't want to use Copycat at all. So I used this. Here is how it works: They attack, I live on a bit and heal with Berry Juice and go for Swords Dance. They attack again, I either go for Swords Dance again, or High Jump Kick. If I go for SD, I priority Rest next turn. Then I live on a bit. Then go for Sleep Talk (priority ftw) and hope for High Jump Kick. That's a +4 130 Base power move... That's gonna OHKO anything that doesn't 4x resist it or bulky 2x resist it.


Unsuspicious (Salandit) @ Life Orb
Ability: Corrosion
Level: 5
Shiny: Yes
EVs: 64 Def / 188 SpA / 36 SpD / 220 Spe
Timid Nature
- Sludge Wave
- Flame Charge
- Fire Blast
- Hidden Power [Ice]

A questionable member of my team for sure. I usually send this guy out on set-up fodder and go for Flame Charge to make up for no Scarf. Fire Blast and Sludge Wave are used for maximum power and are great STAB. Hidden Power [Ice] needs to be changed, either to another Hidden Power type or to Dragon Pulse. Mainly a check to Steel, Bug, Grass, and Fairy types.

So I SUCK at this. You don't have to point out everything wrong, bc that will take a while lol.

Wow you really do suck at teambuilding. The first thing you should do to make your team a lot better is to replace everything with Wishiwashi.
That was originally "Replace everything with sunkern" ;)
I like how you call your Magby... Elmo
Spooooooooky
This team is actually not awful, though you're missing out on important threats like vullaby, and Riolu is heavily outclassed in pretty much every regard.
Elmo. I called mine fire-face, which I thought was great, but.. Elmo.
