Since Ninetails recently dropped to RU, i thought of experimenting hail in RU and it is turning out to be decnt so thought of sharing my team.
Ninetales-Alola @ Heavy-Duty Boots
Ability: Snow Warning
EVs: 252 SpA / 4 SpD / 252 Spe
Timid Nature
IVs: 0 Atk
- Aurora Veil
- Hypnosis
- Moonblast
- Freeze-Dry
Ninetails can be given icy rock as well but i prefer boots since there a lot of hazard setters in RU, so it's a better option. The moveset is an offensive lead with aurora veil + hypnosis combo. The other two are just standard moves.
Now there are a quite few hail sweepers in the game, i'll be choosing two for the team as in Arctovish and Arctozolt. Arctovish with band hits very hard and is a good option to start your game with after setting up with ninetails. I've given it a few spa ews since it's runing freeze dry and is a very great move in RU
Arctovish @ Choice Band
Ability: Slush Rush
EVs: 248 HP / 252 Atk / 8 SpA
Brave Nature
- Fishious Rend
- Icicle Crash
- Freeze-Dry
- Psychic Fangs
The next set is of Arctozolt basically your end game mon. With life orb it can sweep out the remaining bits of the opponents team.
Arctozolt @ Life Orb
Ability: Slush Rush
EVs: 252 Atk / 32 SpA / 224 Spe
Naive Nature
- Bolt Beak
- Icicle Crash
- Freeze-Dry
- Low Kick
Next we need a good rapid spinner and the best option is Starmie, with great special attack it also serves the purpose of our special attacker, here's the set.
Starmie @ Heavy-Duty Boots
Ability: Natural Cure
EVs: 252 SpA / 4 SpD / 252 Spe
Timid Nature
- Thunderbolt
- Ice Beam
- Scald
- Rapid Spin
Next in is a wall breaker as in Flygon, pretty decent and basic set.
Flygon @ Choice Scarf
Ability: Levitate
EVs: 252 Atk / 4 SpD / 252 Spe
Jolly Nature
- Outrage
- U-turn
- Thunder Punch
- Earthquake
At last we have in is a defensive tank as in Reuniclus. It's always been one of RU's finest mons for a reason. The main reason for using assault vest is that it can tank a shadow ball from +2 polteagist which is very annoying. Here's the set.
Reuniclus @ Assault Vest
Ability: Magic Guard
EVs: 252 HP / 252 SpA / 4 SpD
Modest Nature
IVs: 0 Atk
