shiondesu Posted February 27, 2016 Share Posted February 27, 2016 Hello guys. I am currently playing Reborn and this is my 5-man Team so Far. I'm thinking of adding some good special sweeper for my team because 4 of my Pokemon are Physical Sweeper. I'm currently heading towards Samson so all of my Pokemon are currently Level 70. Any helps are very much appreciated.

bepe Posted February 27, 2016 Share Posted February 27, 2016 I've had a lot of success with gardevoir in the past. If you don't want another fairy, something like porygon-z or yanmega can be really good too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luna Posted February 27, 2016 Share Posted February 27, 2016 ok before i post a long-ish post on team advice and stuff gotta ask you are you doing any "special" runs. ie mono run only 6 pokemon team run or anything of that nature. gotta confirm because i m gonna suggest some substitute/back-up pokemon so you can swap around and not just run with 6 pokemon only. but yeah before that long post gonna tell ya what i think of your team and what you can do to some what improve your current team. Ok your current team is physical atk heavy and can be walled out by a strong def wall. i m sure you are aware of this since you did say your are planning to add sp sweepers to your team. EV/Nature/items/moves and abilities for each of your team will be modified to what i think is the best set up.this purely my opinion and you an choose to follow them if you like or change them around as you like. The modification are below in the spoiler tag. Blaziken Ability:Speed Boost Nature:Adamant Items:Black Belt/Fist plate/Charcoal/Flame Plate/Life Orb/Wide Lens EV: 252 Atk/ 252 Speed/6HP -High Jump Kick(Use heart scale to get this move) -Bulk Up -Flare Blitz -Brave Bird/Shadow Claw(depends on what coverage you want) Azumarill Ability:Huge PowerNature:AdamantItems: Sitrus Berry/LeftoversEV: 252Atk/252 HP/6 speed -Aqua Jet -Belly Drum -Play Rough -Aqua Tail(replace with waterfall once you get the HM) Metagross Ability:Clear BodyNature:Adamant/BraveItems:Iron Plate/Mind Plate/Life OrbEV: 252Atk/252 HP/6 Def -Zen Headbutt -Meteor Mash -Hammer Arm/Brick break(brick break if you are not planning to use hammer arm+gyro ball) -Bullet Punch/Gyro ball(hammer arm+gyro ball combo can do tons of dmg) Tyrantrum Ability:Rock HeadNature:Adamant/JollyItems:Stone Plate/Hard Stone/Draco Plate/Dragon Fang/Wide LensEV: 252Atk/252 Speed/6 Def -Head Smash -Dragon Dance -Earthquake -Dragon Claw Lilligant Ability:Own tempoNature:Modest/TimidItems:Miracle Seed/Rose incense/Meadow Plate/Wide LensEV: 252SpAtk/252 Speed/6 Def -Quiver Dance -Sleep powder -Petal Dance -Nature Power so that is what i would do to improve your team once you confirm that you are not doing some "special" run or something i will give my suggestion on what are good team member to have for your team. Anyways good luck and enjoy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sound of silence Posted February 27, 2016 Share Posted February 27, 2016 I'd be adding alakazam to your team. That will help considerably with samson as well as special attacking in one. Abra can be gotten from the 7th street pokemon vendor.Otherwise consider a fairy such as gardevoir, florges, or if you ca be bothered grinding in the circus, there is a clefairy up for grabs.

Anyways good luck and enjoy. No sir. I'm not doing any special runs. I am currently playing Reborn for the first time. I want to maximize my Pokemon's damage so I'm getting Adamant/Modest nature for them. But I'm thinking of having 6 Pokemon I can call a Team and get other Pokemon for substitutions etc. All of my Pokemon have 252 Attk/Sp. Attk and 252 Speed EVs because my friend says all of Ciel's Pokemon can outspeed mine so I grind all of them to get 252 Speed EVs. I'm not really good at Pokemon because I just played Reborn a Month ago. Sorry for all the trouble :3 Edited February 27, 2016 by shiondesu Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luna Posted February 27, 2016 Share Posted February 27, 2016 (edited) well actually you do not need any EV/IV to clear reborn but speed EV on metagross and azumarill is kinda useless. Hp makes them tanky. they are bulky sweepers so they are suppose to be out speed because they can take the hits. well speed nature are more useful for those set up pokemon because you are boosting the atk stat. say for example Tyrantrum with Jolly nature can set up Dragon Dance faster than most 71 or below base speed pokemon. so if you are really worried about getting out-speed i would go for speed boosting natures (Jolly/Timid). Brave and Quiet Natures are for trick room users/slow pokemon. so not all the time modest/Adamant nature are the best but to make things easy yes they are the best nature to just smack on any pokemon. Now with that aside time for a super long post you have been warned,this post is gonna be long and dont worry there will be a TLDR at the end. Ok i assume you still have access to the daycare since you say that you are heading to samson. if you are reading this DO NOT go to agate yet because once you go to agate city there is no turning back and you can't change nature,breed and you have limited pokemon to work with unless you have older episodes to go back to Reborn city. But going back to older episodes is risky cause it might make your save file corrupt or something so i do not recommend doing so. Just dont go to agate yet until you prepared a decent team of 6 plus subs.Did i mention DO NOT enter agate. well it is usually better to run with a team with 3 Special Attacker and 3 Physical Attackers so that you cant get walled so badly. I would go for duo types since having duo types in a team would be better since you can cover more without swapping around too much. so i would kinda stay away from mono types like Lilligant but Lilligant is actually a decent grass type but there are others which can do a better job and cover more since they are duo type. Chapter 1: Starting from scratch Ok now lets remove every single member except your starter. in order to make a team of six we need to start from the basics/fresh start so that it is easy to build your team.Ok Blaziken is weak to water,ground,flying and psychic. so getting a grass type into you team will deal with the water and ground weakness. Step 1 is to add a grass type to you team.should it be physical or special well that is up to you.so here is a list of grass types which are good just pick one a duo type grass type is better.I would go for Roserade if you want a good special atk grass type and Gourgeist/Trevenant if you choose to go for a physical atk grass type because ghost also takes care of the psychic weakness Blaziken has.

Ok now we need something to counter grass which are flying,ice,poison,bug and fire. ice,fire and bug are covered by Blaziken and if you choose Gourgeist/Travenant/Roserade you will not need to worry about poison weakness which leaves us with flying and Blaziken also has a flying weakness too so the third pokemon can cover the 2 of them.I would personally go for an electric type since grass can cover electric type weakness to ground.Step 2: add a electric type into your team.I personally would go for Ampharos/Magnezone for special attack electric type and Eelektross/Raichu if you are going for physical attack electric type,Anyways the other options are below.

So Step 3 kinda depends on what are your first 3 pokemon of the team. so this section is gonna be kinda long cause i m gonna try to cover the 3 points i said 1)psychic killers,2)Fairy killers,3) Covering Magnezone's arse. Chapter 3.1:Psychic type killers Well at this point of team building you would already have 3 members in the team. If your team is still weak to a certain type you will need to cover them team members. Well if you choose blaziken+ any poison/grass type. your team will still be weak to Psychic types so we will need to add in either a ghost type, a dark type or a bug type. i personally prefer going with ghost type since most ghost types are weak to dark and blaziken can take care of the dark types. you can go with dark types here but you will need to put in a dark type which can deal with fighting a.k.a Honchkrow. Also there not many special attacking Dark types so you are kinda forced to run with a physical attack dark type. ghost type has more options and who does not like ghost type they are so cool XD. well i would go for Mismagius/Gengar/Cofagrigus/Froslass if you are going for special attack ghost types and Dirftblim/Dusknoir for physical ghost types.Bug types is also a viable choice but most of them are frail and the best bug type volcarona is a fire type yeah blaziken can cover him but yeah 2 fire in 1 team is ok but not advised. There is also bug type which are always look down on but they are actually the hidden Oped. And i kinda forgot about bugs because hehe i rarely use them. i feel sad that i forgot them hahaha well they are alot of strong physical bug types which are available in reborn and they can pack a punch. Escavalier/Pinisir/Armaldo are good examples of physical bug type which can destroy. Well ther are also special atk bug type which can come in handy like Volcarona/vivilion/Galvantula/Butterfree/Yanmega. You can use the electric type to cover for the bug flying weakness and Blaziken can cover for the fire and rock weakness. As for dark type Honchcrow/Drapion/Skuntank are must have if you are going for physical attack dark type.The only 3 dark types which are special attack and available in game are Houndoom,Greninja and Zoroark. i would not recomed going Houndoom because you already have a fire type in the team having 2 of the same type in a team is kinda pointless because they will share he same weakness and make your team vulnerable to that weakness. Greninja with protean is any type depending on what move he has but he is a starter and not available in any event yet.So the only special atk dark type which is viable and you can choose right now until Hydreigon becomes available is Zoroark. well i did say having 2 pokemon with the same type on team is kinda bad but it is a different case for Drapion and Skuntank as their weakness to psychic is gone due to their typing.Anyways the list of dark,bug and ghost types is below.

-Sleep Powder-Psybeam/Shadow Ball-Quiver Dance-Bug Buzz Chapter 3.2: Fairy Killers If you have reached this far and you have read everything wow thx for doing so XD. Ok now your teams core 3 cover each other so you do not need any Psychic killer so what do we need hmm well something to deal with the pesky fairy type. usually i would go for a steel type since they are well the most effective at killing fairies but you have the option to go with a poison type too but poison type are kinda meh and most are paired up with grass so yeah having 2 grass in a team is a big NO NO because well grass has so many weakness. enuf yapping,here are the list of fairy killers. Physical Atk Poison Type WORK IN PROGRESS Special Atk poison Type WORK IN PROGRESS Physical Atk Steel Type WORK IN PROGRESS Special Atk Steel Type WORK IN PROGRESS 3.3 Covering Magnezone's Arse weaknesses Ok if you choose Magnezone as an electric type woohoo magnezone is an awesome electric and steel type and it can act as gimmick pokemon too with mirror coat and sturdy. also it is gonna be AXED next episode so best grab it and hold on to it tightly. magnezone has a bunch of weakness due to its typing. It is 4X weak to ground and it is weak to fire and fighting too. balziken can deal with the fire types and for the fighting types gourgiest/travenat/roserade can body them unless it is another blaziken. which mean we need to add in a strong water type to counter them ground types and fire types.yes grass types can cover magnezone but they are also weak to fire and the only way to effectively deal with fire types is to put em out with water.Personally i prefer going with a water and ground because they only have one weakness which is grass and you can deal with them grass types with blaziken. but the problem with watre ad ground type is most of them are physical attacker and there is only 1 which is a special attacker. I would go for Gastrodon/Kingdra/Clawitzer for special atk water type and Azurmaril/Sharpedo/Crawdaunt/Barbaracle for physical atk water type.So the options for water types are below in the spoiler tags as usual.

Now all you need is to round up your team. If you choose a psychic killer go back and add in a fairy killer for your 5th member if you added a water type to your team you will have to cover the water type weaknesses and lastly if you picked a fairy killer you will need to cover that fairy killer. all fairy killers are weak to ground so just head over to Chapter 3.3 and choose 1 of them water type to add i as the 5th member.The diagram below should simplify things. 3.1 route--->Add fairy killer as 5th member 3.2 route--->Add water type as 5th member 3.3 route--->Add something to counter water weaknesses(ground types) I will further expand on Adding something to counter water weaknesses as it is not explained in any of the section yet. So yeah water weakness is electric and grass. Grass is covered by blaziken and well electric can be walled by electric types but i rather use a ground type to do that job so if you when the 3.3 route you will need to add a ground type into the team.If you did not pick a water a ground if you did just ignore this section.so as per usual the ground type suggestion are below in the spoiler tag. Physical Atk Ground Type NidokingAbility:Sheer ForceNature:Jolly/AdamantEV:252 Atk/252 Speed/6 Def -Poison Jab-Drill Run/Chip away-Shadow Claw-Iron Tail/Secret power(Egg move/move tutor) ExcadrillAbility:Sand force/Sand rushNature:Jolly/AdamantEV:252 Atk/252 Speed/6 HP -Drill Run/Sandstorm/Rock slide-Earthquake-Metal Claw-Swords Dance MamoswineAbility:Thick FatNature:Jolly/AdamantEV:252 Atk/252 Speed/6 HP -Ice shard-Earthquake-Icicle crash/ice fang(icicle crash is an egg move)-Mist/Thrash(mist for field changing it is very very useful in reborn but if you wanna go all out atk you can put thrash instead) FlygonAbility: LevitateNature:Jolly/AdamantEV: 252 Atk/252 Speed/6 HP -Earthquake-Rock slide-Dragon Rush/Dragon Claw-Superpower/Dragon Claw/Dragon rush/Crunch(if you are lazy to get super power by training a trapinch to lvl 41 just put dragon claw/rush if u want more stab move or crunch for coverage) KrookodileAbility:MoxieNature:Jolly/AdamantEV:252 Atk/252 speed/6 HP -Outrage-Foul Play-Earthquake-Brick Break/Crunch(crunch before you get TM for brick break) GolurkAbility:No guardNature:Brave/AdamantEV:252 HP/252 Atk/6 Def -Dynamic Punch-Phantom Force-Earthquake-Mega Punch/Shadow punch DiggersbyAbility:Huge PowerNature:Adamant/JollyEV: 252 Atk/252 speed/6 Hp -Earthquake-Bounce-Quick attack/Strength-Swords Dance QuagsireAbility:water absorbNature:Brave/Adamant/Relaxed/impishEV:252 HP/252 Atk/6 Def -Curse(egg move)-Recover-Earthquake-Waterfall Hippowdon Ability:Sand stream/Sand Force Nature:Adamant/BraveEV:252 HP/252 Atk/6 Def -Curse(egg move) -Slack Off(egg move) -Earthquake -Fire Fang Torterra Ability:Overgrow Nature:Adamant/BraveEV:252 HP/252 Atk/6 Def -Seed Bomb(egg move) -Earthquake -Curse -Superpower/Leech Seed(Superpower is and egg move but it is kinda hard to breed onto torterra early because you will need a totodile to do so) Special Atk Ground type Nidoqueen Ability:Sheer ForceNature:Timid/ModestEV:252 SpAtk/252 Speed/6 HP -Earth Power -Sludge Wave -Flamethrower/venoshock(put venoshock before getting flamethrower TM) -Surf/Round/Icy Wind(put round before you get Surf HM) Flygon Ability: LevitateNature:Modest/TimidEV: 252 SpAtk/252 Speed/6 HP -Earth Power -Dragon Breath -Uproar/Hyper Beam/Signal Beam(signal beam is an egg move) -Flamethrower Camerupt Ability: Solid RockNature:Modest/QuietEV: 252 SpAtk/252 Hp/6 SpDef -Lava Plume/Heat Wave(heat wave is an egg move) -Eruption -Earth Power -Growth(Growth is an egg move) Claydol Ability: LevitateNature:Modest/Quiet EV: 252 SpDef/252 HP/6 SpAtk -Earth Power -Ancient Power/Grass knot -Power Trick -Grass Knot/Extrasensory Stunfisk Ability:Static Nature:Modest/QuietEV: 252 SpAtk/252 HP/6 SpDef -Thunderbolt -Earth Power/Mud Bomb(Earth Power is an egg move) -Discharge/Sludge Wave -Surf/Muddy Water GastrodonAbility:Storm Drain/Sand forceNature:Modest/QuietEV: 252 SpAtk/252 HP/6 SpDef -Surf-Mud Bomb-Icy Wind/Sludge Wave-Sandstorm/Rain Dance/Recover/Icy Wind/Sludge Wave Chapter 5: Rounding things up Woohoo we are almost done with the team building process now it time to pick the 6th and final member of the team. Now the team just need to cover up its last few weaknesses and it can take on most teams easily. i will put some sample team at the end of this section. you can follow the sample team if you want.So if you picked a water type as your 5th member and it is not a water+ground type you will need to grab a ground type so just head over to the section above for ground type recommendation. If you picked a fairy Killer as your 5th member please head over and grab a water type as your last member. I personally advice you to pick a water+ground type as your water type,so you dont need to worry about electric weakness but it is up to you. And if you pick ground type for the 5th pokemon and you do not have a psychic killer in your team head over to the psychic killer section and choose 1 psychic killer for your last member. if not add in a dragon type/dragon type killer if you do not have 1 in your team yet.The diagram below will help you pick the last member of your team. 3.1 route--->Add fairy killer as 5th member--->Add water Type as the 6th Member 3.2 route--->Add water type as 5th member--->Add ground type as the 6th Member 3.3 route--->Add something to counter water weaknesses(ground types)--->Add Pyschic killer if you do not have 1 3.3 route--->Add something to counter water weaknesses(ground types)--->Add dragon Type/dragon type killer if you have a psychic killer in your team Ok reason why you would want to put a dragon type or a dragon type killer if you do not have 1 in you team you would have a problem because elemental atks like fire/grass/electric/water are weak against dragons.so it is always good to have a dragon killer/dragon in your team. Now as usual the list of dragons,fairy and ice types are below in the spoiler tag.

DemICE Posted February 27, 2016 Share Posted February 27, 2016 (edited) Also Victreebel (Mixed)Ability: Chlorophyl Nature: Neutral (safe) / Lonely or Naughty (risky) EV: ~150 Atk ~102 Sp.Atk 252 Speed -Leaf Blade / Power Whip (egg move) -Knock Off (OP) / Venoshock (if you choose sleep powder below. If you want to keep Knock Off though, put all Sp.Atk EVs into Atk and get Adamant nature. and get walled by high def mons) -Growth (if you set up sunny day with another pokemon holding heat rock) / Sunny Day (if you don't) -Sleep Powder (safety) / Venoshock (extra coverage, only relevant damage after Growths) / Leaf Storm (Hello physical wall. Byebye physical wall.) [Running Sunny Day and Growth in the same set will ensure your death before you set up almost always, or you will have only 1 Attacking move which sucks] Alternatively you can just replace move 1 with giga drain (egg move), knock off with venoshock, and go full special but its boring.

shiondesu Posted February 28, 2016 Author Share Posted February 28, 2016 well actually you do not need any EV/IV to clear reborn but speed EV on metagross and azumarill is kinda useless. Hp makes them tanky. they are bulky sweepers so they are suppose to be out speed because they can take the hits. well speed nature are more useful for those set up pokemon because you are boosting the atk stat. say for example Tyrantrum with Jolly nature can set up Dragon Dance faster than most 71 or below base speed pokemon. so if you are really worried about getting out-speed i would go for speed boosting natures (Jolly/Timid). Brave and Quiet Natures are for trick room users/slow pokemon. so not all the time modest/Adamant nature are the best but to make things easy yes they are the best nature to just smack on any pokemon. Now with that aside time for a super long post you have been warned,this post is gonna be long and dont worry there will be a TLDR at the end. Ok i assume you still have access to the daycare since you say that you heading to samson. if you are reading this DO NOT go to agate yet because once you go to agate city there is no turning back and you can change nature,breed and you have limited pokemon to work with unless you have older episodes to go back to Reborn city. But going back to older episodes is risky cause it might make your save file corrupt or something so i do not recommend doing so. Just dont go to agate yet until you prepared a decent team of 6 plus subs.Did i mention DO NOT enter agate. well it is usually better to run with a team with 3 Special Attacker and 3 Physical Attackers so that you cant get walled so badly. I would go for duo types since having duo types in a team would be better since you can cover more without swapping around too much. so i would kinda stay away from mono types like Lilligant but Lilligant is actually a decent grass type but there are others which can do a better job and cover more since they are duo type. Chapter 1: Starting from scratch Ok now lets remove every single member except your starter. in order to make a team of six we need to start from the basics/fresh start so that it is easy to build your team.Ok Blaziken is weak to water,ground,flying and psychic. so getting a grass type into you team will deal with the water and ground weakness. Step 1 is to add a grass type to you team.should it be physical or special well that is up to you.so here is a list of grass types which are good just pick one a duo type grass type is better.I would go for Roserade if you want a good special atk grass type and Gourgeist/Trevenant if you choose to go for a physical atk grass type because ghost also takes care of the psychic weakness Blaziken has. Special Attack grass types Lilligant Ability:Own Tempo Nature:Modest/Timid EV: 252 SpAtk/252 Speed/6HP -Quiver Dance -Sleep Powder -Petal Dance -Nature Power Roserade(version 1) Ability:Natural Cure Nature:Modest/Timid EV: 252 SpAtk/252 Speed/6 SpDef -Venoshock -Toxic Spikes/Toxic -Giga Drain -Petal dance/Shadow ball( shadow ball if u got it from shade in earlier episode) Roserade(version 2) Ability:Technician Nature:Modest/Timid EV: 252 SpAtk/252 Speed/6 SpDef -Venoshock -Toxic Spikes/Toxic/leech seed -Magical Leaf/mega drain -Weather Ball Ludicolo Ability:Rain Dish/Swift swim Nature:Modest EV: 252 SpAtk/252 Speed/6 SpDef -Energy Ball -Surf/Hydro pump/Bubble beam(hydro pump/bubble beam before you get HM surf) -Icy wind/Nature power(Nature power before you get access to move tutor) -Grass knot/Water pulse/Nature power/Hydro Pump/Rain dance/Giga drain( giga drain before you get grass knot/access to move tutor) Exeggutor Ability:Chlorophyll/Harvest Nature:Modest/Quiet EV: 252 SpAtk/252 HP/6 Def -Skill Swap/Trick room/Reflect/Sunny day -Leaf Storm -Psyshock -Solarbeam/Uproar Vileplume Ability:Chlorophyll/Effect spore Nature:Modest/Quiet Ev: 252 HP/ 252 SpAtk/6 SpDef -Toxic -Venoshock -Giga Drain/Solar beam/Petal dance(giga drain if you wanna go for a safe set) -Moonblast(oddish learns it at lvl 43) Cherrim Ability: Flower Gift Nature: Modest/Timid EV: 6 Hp/252 SpAtk/ 252 Speed -Sunny day -Solar Beam -Magical Leaf/Weather ball(weather ball is an egg move) -Growth Physical attack Grass types Trevenant Ability:Natural Cure/Harvest Nature: Adamant/Brave EV: 252 HP/ 252 Atk/6 Sp Def Will-O-Wisp/Leech Seed/Destiny Bond Wood Hammer Horn Leech Shadow claw/Phantom Force Jumpluff Ability: Chlorophyll Nature:Adamant/Jolly Ev:252 Atk/252 Speed/6 SpDef -Acrobatics -U-Turn/Bounce -Seed bomb(seed bomb is an egg move) -Leech seed/sleep powder/Sunny Day Shiftry Ability: Chlorophyll Nature:Adamant/Jolly Ev:252 Atk/252 Speed/6 Def -Feint Attack/Foul Play(Foul Play is an egg move) -Leaf Blade -Nature Power/Sunny day -Growth Gourgeist Ability:Insomnia Nature: Adamant/Brave EV: 252 HP/ 252 Atk/6 Def -Pain split/leech seed -Seed Bomb -Phantom Force -Shadow Sneak/Explosion Leavanny Ability:Chlorophyll Nature:Jolly/Adamant EV:252 Atk/252 Speed/6 Def -Leaf Blade -Swords Dance/fell Stinger -Sticky Web/Protect -X-Scissors Leafeon Ability:Chlorophyll Nature:Jolly/Adamant EV:252 Atk/252 Speed/6 Def -Leaf Blade -Swords Dance -Baton Pass/Synthesis -Facade/Last Resort/Nature power Cacturne Ability: Water Absorb Nature:Adamant/Brave EV:252 HP/252 Atk/6 Def -Seed Bomb/Needle Arm(seed bomb is an egg move) -Sucker Punch -Destiny Bond/Pay back -Brick Break/Revenge/Low kick(low kick is an egg move) Chapter 2: Covering Each others weakness Okie back now let continue. Ok now we need something to counter grass which are flying,ice,poison,bug and fire. ice,fire and bug are covered by Blaziken and if you choose Gourgeist/Travenant/Roserade you will not need to worry about poison weakness which leaves us with flying and Blaziken also has a flying weakness too so the third pokemon can cover the 2 of them.I would personally go for an electric type since grass can cover electric type weakness to ground.Step 2: add a electric type into your team.I personally would go for Ampharos/Magnezone for special attack electric type and Eelektross/Raichu if you are going for physical attack electric type,Anyways the other options are below. Special Attack Electric type Heliolisk Ability:Solar power Nature;Modest/Timid EV: 252 SpAtk/252 Speed/6 SpDef -Thunderbolt/Thunder -Surf/Round/Hidden Power -Dark pulse -Grass knot/Round Ampharos Ability:static/plus Nature:Modest/Quiet Ev:252 Hp/252 SpAtk/6 SpDef -Thunder/discharge -Signal Beam -Dragon pulse -Power Gem Raichu Ability: Lightning Rod/Static Nature;Modest/Timid EV: 252 SpAtk/252 Speed/6 SpDef -Thunderbolt -Nasty Plot -Grass Knot -Thunder/discharge Magnezone/Magneton Ability:Analytic/Sturdy Nature:Modest/Quiet Ev:252 Hp/252 SpAtk/6 Def -Discharge -Flash cannon -Tri-Attack -Mirror Coat Galvantula Ability:Swarm/Compound eyes Nature;Modest/Timid EV: 252 SpAtk/252 Speed/6 HP -Bug buzz -Signal Beam -Discharge -Sticky web Eelektross Ability: levitate Nature:Modest/Quiet Ev:252 Hp/252 SpAtk/6 Def -Flamethrower -Grass knot -Discharge -Thunderbolt Manectric Ability:Lighting Rod/Static Nature;Modest/Timid EV: 252 SpAtk/252 Speed/6 HP -Flamethrower/round/Hidden power(before you get tm flamethrower put hidden power or round) -Discharge -Uproar/round/hidden power(uproar is an egg move) -Thunder Electrode Ability:Soundproof/Static Nature:Modest/Timid EV: 252 SpAtk/252 Speed/6 SpDef -Electro ball -Discharge -Mirror Coat -Explosion Lanturn Ability:Volt Absorb/Water Absorb Nature:Modest/Quiet EV: 252 SpAtk/252 HP/6 SpDef -Surf -Discharge -Icy wind( move tutor) -Signal beam Physical Attack Electric type Zebstrika Ability:Motor Drive/Sap sipper/ lightning Rod Nature:Jolly/Adamant EV:252 Atk/252 Speed/6 HP -Flame Charge -Wild Charge -Thrash -Spark Eelektross Ability: Levitate Nature:Brave/Adamant EV: 252 HP/252 Atk/6 Def -Wild Charge -Crunch -Crush claw -Brick Break/Thrash/Headbutt(put brick break once you get the TM if not just put trash or Headbutt) Raichu Ability:Static/Lightning Rod Nature;Adamant/Jolly EV: 252 Atk/252 Speed/6 SpDef -Volt tackle/Wild charge(volt tackle can be obtained if you breed 2 pikachu and 1 of em is holding light ball) -Nuzzle/Thunder Punch(thunder punch is an egg move) -Strength -Brick Break Electivire Ability:Motor Drive Nature;Adamant/Jolly EV: 252 Atk/252 Speed/6 SpDef -Low Kick/Brick Break -Ice Punch(egg move) -Fire Punch(use heart scale) -Thunder Punch Luxray Ability:Guts Nature;Adamant/Jolly EV: 252 Atk/252 Speed/6 Hp -Ice fang(egg move) -Wild Charge -Crunch -Strength/Thunder Fang Chapter 3: Crossroads Now if you did not pick Gourgiest/Travenant as the grass type for you team you would still have psychic weakness for Blaziken and if you picked Roserade you will also have another pyschic weakness so the 4th slot of the team if for a psychic type killer if you picked roserade as a grass type if not this slot is for a fairy killer if you did not pick magnezone and if you did pic magnezone this slot if to cover up magnezone weakness. So Step 3 kinda depends on what are your first 3 pokemon of the team. so this section is gonna be kinda long cause i m gonna try to cover the 3 points i said 1)psychic killers,2)Fairy killers,3) Covering Magnezone's arse. Chapter 3.1:Psychic type killers Well at this point of team building you would already have 3 members in the team. If your team is still weak to a certain type you will need to cover them team members. Well if you choose blaziken+ any poison/grass type. your team will still be weak to Psychic types so we will need to add in either a ghost type or a dark type. i personally prefer going with ghost type since most ghost types are weak to dark and blaziken can take care of the dark types. you can go with dark types here but you will need to put in a dark type which can deal with fighting a.k.a Honchkrow. Also there not many special attacking Dark types so you are kinda forced to run with a physical attack dark type. ghost type has more options and who does not like ghost type they are so cool XD. well i would go for Mismagius/Gengar/Cofagrigus/Froslass if you are going for special attack ghost types and Dirftblim/Dusknoir for physical ghost types. As for dark type Honchcrow/Drapion/Skuntank are must have if you are going for physical attack dark type.The only 3 dark types which are special attack and available in game are Houndoom,Greninja and Zoroark. i would not recomed going Houndoom because you already have a fire type in the team having 2 of the same type in a team is kinda pointless because they will share he same weakness and make your team vulnerable to that weakness. Greninja with protean is any type depending on what move he has but he is a starter and not available in any event yet.So the only special atk dark type which is viable and you can choose right now until Hydreigon becomes available is Zoroark. well i did say having 2 pokemon with the same type on team is kinda bad but it is a different case for Drapion and Skuntank as their weakness to psychic is gone due to their typing.Anyways the list of dark and ghost types is below.
