I am into NU Weather Teams now. NU is my favorite tier and i really want to exploit my real talent and get the best out of me. Here we go!!!!
Shiftry @ Heat Rock
Trait: Chlorophyll
EVs: 252 SAtk/ 252 Spe/ 4 SDef
Modest Nature (+SAtk,-Atk)
- Sunny Day
- SolarBeam
- Hidden Power Rock
- Dark Pulse
My Sun Starter. Sunny Day + Heat Rock for holding the summer-kind of weather a bit longer. SolarBeam for STAB plus no charging required with the Sun. HP Rock covers Shiftry's Fire, Ice, Flying and Bug weaknesses in one attack. Dark Pulse for additional STAB.
Lampent @ Eviolite
Trait: Flash Fire
EVs: 252 SDef/ 248 HP/ 8 Def
Calm Nature (+SDef,-Atk)
- Flamethrower
- Shadow Ball
- Will-O-Wisp
- Pain Split
If the menace for Shiftry with those persistent Fire-types is too much for him to handle, i switch into Lampent who happily absorbs the attack. If Shiftry has problems facing a Fighting type and Exeggutor can't handle it? Lampent avoids that too. He is the defensive core of my team. Flamethrower boosted by Flash Fire can convert this guy into a sweeper and Shadow Ball is also STAB. Will-O-Wisp is for wearing the opponent down slowly and Pain Split is for it's usual use.
Exeggutor @ Life Orb
Trait: Chlorophyll
EVs: 252 SAtk/ 252 Spe/ 4 HP
Timid Nature (+Spe,-Atk)
- Hidden Power Fire
- SolarBeam
- Psyshock
- Synthesis
My Sunny Sweeper. HP Fire is not STAB but the 50% boost of Fire-type moves in the Sun compensates for it. SolarBeam is for the usual use plus it's STAB. Psyshock is also STAB and takes care of the pesky Poison and Fighting type that dare to try to hit my Shiftry. Synthesis heals by much when used at the proper time during the Sun.
Sawk @ Heat Rock
Trait: Sturdy
EVs: 252 Atk/ 252 Spe/ 4 HP
Jolly Nature (+Spe,-SAtk)
- Sunny Day
- Fire Punch
- Brick Break
- Stone Edge
Here's my other Sunny Day setter. Fire Punch looks new on him and is boosted by the Sun. Stone Edge is for coverage against Flying types and Brick Break is STAB. As easy as that!
Charizard @ Choice Specs
Trait: Solar Power
EVs: 252 SAtk/ 252 Spe/ 4 Def
Timid Nature (+Spe,-Atk)
- Fire Blast
- Air Slash
- SolarBeam
- Focus Blast
Here the little Fire dragon that is considered the strongest Pokemon since generations by your six-year old neighbor. Fire Blast + Solar Power + Sun Boost + Choice Specs sweeps almost everything. Air Slash is for reliable STAB with a good critical hit chance. SolarBeam is for the usual Sun use and Focus Blast hits Rock types super-effectively.
Altaria @ Leftovers
Trait: Natural Cure
EVs: 252 Atk/ 252 Spe/ 4 Def
Adamant Nature (+Atk,-SAtk)
- Dragon Dance
- Dragon Claw
- Earthquake
- Roost
This guy fits pretty well in my team. He fights his own Dragon weakness and the Ice weakness is vanquished by the other members of my team. Dragon Dance for setting up and sweeping with Dragon Claw, which is STAB. Earthquake is good to defeat Altaria's and many other Pokemon of team's Rock weakness. Roost is a decent way for the Pokemon to heal.
Dis is the end of my first NU Weather team. I will be continuing my weather teams and i have Rain and Hail left. Thanks for reading and thanks for answering!
