Could I get some team advice /vp/? It's kinda gimmicky, but I play on cart, and at most I'll be on battlespot/battling a friend of mine. He knows how the meta works and has played showdown, so he knows what he's doing. Anyway, it's a paralysis shuffle/speed support team.
Dragonite
252 SpDef/252 HP/4 Defense, Careful (leftovers)
- Roost
- T-wave
- Dragon Tail
- Fire Punch
My lead and paralysis shuffler. Fairies shut down his main attraction, but at the least, I get off t-wave.
Chandelure
252 SpaAtk/252 Spd/4 HP, Modest (Choice Specs)
- Hyper Beam because it's fun
- Fire Blast/Flamethrower
- Shadow Ball
- Energy Ball
This is one of my sweepers, and he hits outrageously hard with modest and specs both. My only concern is whether or not that's smart. Should I go Modest/Scarf or Timid/Specs?
Hawlucha
252 Atk/252 Spd/4 HP, Adamant (Power Herb)
- Sky Attack
- Swords Dance
- Acrobatics
- High Jump Kick
Went with adamant because paralysis support. Want him to hit as hard as possible. Physical sweeper.
Bisharp
252 Atk/252 Spd/4 HP, Adamant (Sitrus Berry)
- Swords Dance
- Sucker Punch
- Knock Off
- Iron Head
Similar role as Hawlucha. He's kinda iffy for the team, really.
Nidoking
252 SpA/252 Spe/4 HP, Modest (Life Orb)
- Tbolt
- Ice Beam
- Earth Power
- Sludge Wave
This guy is one I really wanted to shine. Special sweeper. Always loved Nidoking and was thrilled when sheer force was announced.
Galvantula
252 Spd/252 SpA/4 HP, Timid (Focus Sash)
- Thunder Wave
- Sticky Web
- Bug Buzz
- Thunder
Emergency Twave support if Nite goes down, as well as SW if that would be more helpful. Hopefully won't have to use him much, but he's there if needed.
Adjustments? Recommendations?
