Well, I'm not only new to this forum I'm also new to online battling. I said online because this team is not for competitive tier battling, it's just.. well, something I have on paper but didn't really manage to try out yet. I should also note that this is for 3v3 battles only.
It goes like this:
Ninjask @ Focus Sash
Ability: Speed Boost
EVs: 252 Atk / 252 Spd / 6 HP
Jolly Nature
- Swords Dance
- Baton Pass
- Protect
- X-Scissor
Pretty obvious here. I know it's overdone to oblivion, but it worked good enough for others so I thought I might give it a shot.
Gorebyss @ Focus Band
Ability: Swift Swim
EVs: 210 HP / 150 Def / 150 SDef
Impish / Calm Nature
- Baton Pass
- Surf
- Psychic
- Amnesia
After Ninjask (hopefully) succesfully baton passed to Gorebyss, the Speed Boosts will alow it to set up Amnesia, harshly increasing special defense. Now Focus band is a bit risky here, but it should work fine enough. Alternatively, I could also use Musharna/Espeon for Calm Mind passing. Espeon would probably the better choice here; Light Clay+dual screens, I suppose.
Steelix @ Life Orb
Ability: Sheer Force
EVs: 150 HP / 100 Atk / 110 Def / 150 SDef
Adamant / Sassy / Relaxed Nature
- Crunch
- Iron Head
- Fire Fang / Thunder Fang
- Earthquake
And for this beauty I'm going through all the trouble. Its meiocre special defense will gain a grand boost by even a single use of Amnesia, if I can manage to set up two, even better. Granted, Calm Mind users are a bit less risky, but it will take longer. With a moveset like this one there isn't really much that could go wrong.
Now, I am aware of the risk factors. Priority moves, Sandstorm and Hail, Brick Break, Infiltrator... etc.
Could someone help me to improve it a bit? As I said, I'm extremely new and basically just took the standard Ninjask set, so please, bare with me.
