I'm really new to Showdown, so I'd appreciate some help with my monotype team! I've been browsing these sites for a while now, and I've been a pokemon fan for a while, so I think it's time to up my game! Let me know what I can do better! Give me all the constructive criticism you can, please!
Zoroark-Hisui @ Leftovers
Ability: Illusion
Shiny: Yes
Tera Type: Normal
EVs: 252 HP / 4 SpD / 252 Spe
Timid Nature
- Substitute
- Hex
- Will-O-Wisp
- Knock Off
To trick my opponents into thinking it's fluttermane! Substitute to scope things out, will-o-wisp to burn, hex for damage, knock off to get rid of the opponents held item!
Sinistcha-Masterpiece @ Big Root
Ability: Heatproof
Tera Type: Grass
EVs: 252 HP / 252 SpA / 4 SpD
Modest Nature
IVs: 0 Atk
- Substitute
- Energy Ball
- Giga Drain
- Hex
Water type coverage, and cute to boot! Substitute to scope and for protection, giga drain to heal, energy ball for damage, hex for STAB, especially when paired with Zoroark's will-o-wisp!
Oricorio-Sensu @ Spell Tag
Ability: Dancer
Shiny: Yes
Tera Type: Ghost
EVs: 252 SpA / 4 SpD / 252 Spe
Timid Nature
IVs: 0 Atk
- Hurricane
- Air Slash
- Revelation Dance (Ghost)
- Roost
Spell Tag for ghost damage with revelation Dance, Roost to heal, hurricane in rainy weather from Basculegion guaranteed hit, air slash for critical hits!
Chandelure @ Charcoal
Ability: Infiltrator
Tera Type: Ghost
EVs: 248 HP / 8 Atk / 252 SpD
Sassy Nature
- Acid Armor
- Curse
- Fire Blast
- Trailblaze
One of my favorite pokemon, carried me through shield with this exact moveset! (Different held item) Acid armor for quick defense boost, curse for STAB, fire blast and trailblaze for STAB with charcoal boost! Infiltrator to get behind enemies using Substitute!
Basculegion-F @ Mystic Water
Ability: Adaptability
Tera Type: Water
EVs: 252 HP / 252 SpA / 4 SpD
Modest Nature
IVs: 0 Atk
- Rain Dance
- Chilling Water
- Hydro Pump
- Ice Beam
Rainy Sweep! I added Adaptability instead of Swift Swim because she's already quite fast, and Adaptability gives extra STAB along with the Mystic Water to boost it more! Ice beam for grass coverage and to take down dragon types.
Flutter Mane @ Heat Rock
Ability: Protosynthesis
Tera Type: Ghost
EVs: 8 HP / 248 SpA / 252 Spe
IVs: 0 Atk
- Mystical Fire
- Moonblast
- Sunny Day
- Pain Split
Sunny sweep! Pain Split for if they get to low hp or the opponent switches to a high health tank, moonblast for dark type coverage, Sunny Day to boost Mystical Fire and then swoosh!
