OU The flame of Houndoom and The War machine of Terrakion. (Once you find the way you no longer need the path) ~Jofly

Question

Yo, Rate this team please ;)

How i built this team

I started with this core

My 2 favorite Scarfers. Terrakion and Houndoom. I wanted to try Houndoom in OU and he worked very well.

I needed something to cover the fighting weaknesses. Jellicent works great with the Scizor that i added later.

I didnt want my Scarfers to be Paralyzed so i added this Thundurus-T. Im sorry for the sprite. Thundurus-T has Volt Absorb so Thunder-wave will not be a problem.

I got an idea. I use the weakness of scizor to power up Houndoom's flash fire.

Garchomp. Maybe not the best choice for this team but i didnt know which pokemon who would use this moveslot on the most effective way.

You have two of the same question, Jofly.

---

Two Scarfers = Bad

---

That's your opinion. I and many others have used teams with 2 scarfers with all kinds of success.

---

Actually, when Terrakion can run a much better banded set, two scarfers = bad.

---

Sorry, i didnt see that i posted two questions

---

I have no idea what you did to put those sprites in their but it won't let me edit it for crap, so here is a Thundurus-T sprite. http://www.serebii.net/blackwhite/pokemon/642-s.png

---

http://sprites.pokecheck.org/ these have animated sprites if you want to use them

---

Pokecheck always crashes mah computer :(

---

Ben, I tried to edit with exactly the same Thundurus-T sprite that you linked. but it removed the other sprites

---

Lol that Garchomp looks like it's having a seizure :P

Looks good Jofly.
That Shadow Ball doesn't do anything coverage wise for Houndoom, but he sort of lacks a nice movepool. Maybe throw in Solarbeam to take advantage of sun teams?

---

Nah, SBeam's too risky.

---

Yeah my thoughts. But depending on how much you use that Shadow Ball it might be worth throwing SBeam on just to play with Sun teams.
 I mean, Shadow Ball hits ghost and psychic types, so does Dark Pulse. And you dont get STAB from it. Meh just an idea.

---

Use solar beam. Given the fact that you already have dark pulse, why use shadow ball? It hits the same types super effectively.

---

Ummm....  Houndoom? Well, you certainly have an Erick Point for creativity...

---

Two words. Conkeldurr. Lucario. Say bye-bye when either of these come in play.

---

Jofly try overheat over shadow ball. It gives a powerful move option and fits the hit and run nature of choiced pokemon. And choice scarf latios may prove itself a nuisance
