Hello,
I have been using this team with fairly large amounts of success on the Battle Spot, mainly in double battles. I found that Jolteon (see below) was not really needed/was not useful once I started using Rotom-W. I am unsure of what to replace it with, though. Any suggestions of what I should use in its place, or for the team in general would be great.
The Team:
Garchomp @ Garchompite
Ability: Rough Skin ---> Sand Force
EVs: 252 Atk / 252 Spe / 4 Def
Jolly Nature
- Dragon Claw
- Poison Jab
- Stone Edge
- Earthquake
The Mega of the team. See below.
Tyranitar @ Lum Berry
Ability: Sand Stream
EVs: 128 HP / 128 Atk / 128 Def / 128 Spe
Jolly Nature
- Crunch
- Stone Edge
- Ice Fang
- Protect
Works really well with Mega Garchomp in doubles, with Protect and Sand Force Earthquake.
Scizor @ Shell Bell / King's Rock
Ability: Technician
EVs: 252 HP / 240 Atk / 18 Def
Adamant Nature
- Bullet Punch
- X-Scissor
- Pursuit
- U-turn
Revenge Killer, helps cover Grass and Fairies.
Talonflame @ Focus Sash
Ability: Gale Wings
252 Atk/ 252 HP/ 4 Def
Adamant Nature
- Flare Blitz
- Tailwind
- Acrobatics
- Protect / Taunt
The Focus Sash gives me a turn to set up Tailwind, and then I can use priority Acrobatics with its full potential.
Rotom-Wash @ Sitrus Berry
Ability: Levitate
EVs: 128 HP / 128 SAtk / 128 Def / 128 SDef
Bold Nature
- Thunderbolt
- Hydro Pump
- Protect
- Volt Switch
I found that this guy covered Talonflame's water weakness well, as well as Tyranitar's and Fire for Scizor.
And finally:
Jolteon @ Focus Sash
Ability: Volt Absorb
EVs: 252 SAtk/ 252 Spe / 4 Def
Timid Nature
- Substitute
- Baton Pass
- Hidden Power [Ice]
- Thunderbolt
The main problem with Jolteon seemed to be its frailty. I couldn't get the substitute up without it fading immediately, so its usefulness was limited as a lead. A special attacker/support Pokemon would probably be needed as a replacement, as I have a lot of physical attackers on my team, and not many of anything else.
Thanks for any help in advance!
