Exploud @ Choice Specs
Ability: Scrappy
Shiny: Yes
EVs: 4 HP / 252 SpA / 252 Spe
Modest Nature
- Boomburst
- Water Pulse
- Flamethrower
- Ice Beam
My main sweeper. Spams Boomburst and takes advantage of tailwind.
Bastiodon @ Leftovers
Ability: Soundproof
EVs: 248 HP / 252 Atk / 8 SpD
Adamant Nature
- Earthquake
- Substitiute
- Wide Guard
- Sandstorm
Sits there taking no damage while boomburst is spammed. EQ helps out with steel and rock types that resist boomburst, I invested in attack beacause it's bulky enough to tank hits but can't damage without it due to pitiful offensive stats. Wide Guard is for earthquakes from chomp and any opposing ones, for that matter.

Timid Nature

Jolly Nature
- Fake Out
- Quick Guard
- Wide Guard
- Ally Switch
Sashed because of Boomburst. Fake Out and quick guard stop mach punch users, wide guard is to stop taking boomburst damage and any attacks from opposing 'mons that threaten Exploud.
Garchomp @ Garchompite
Ability: Sand Veil
EVs: 252 Atk / 4 SpA / 252 Spe
Naive Nature
- Earthquake
- Dragon Claw
- Rock Slide
- Fire Blast
My only answer to soundproof and my only form of comeback if Exploud is defeated. Also takes advantage of the sandstorm Bastiodon can set.
Overall, this is a gimmicky but reasonably effective team. Any suggestions to make it more reliable would be extremely helpful.
