[Untiered] Building a team, wanting some advice.


Recommended Posts

Posted

There is this team, https://pokepast.es/cb1d50c761e95a92 , want to hear the opinions. 

 

Spoiler

Some notes and considerations: 
Sandslash - Straight up the best lead in format, so it's pretty much inreplaceable. 
Misdreavus - This set allows me to basically shut down most Sandslashs. Taunt also make the life of tanks pretty hard. No need for speed since most Sandslashs are run Adamant Full HP/Atk.
Charizard and Slowking - Their sets are pretty much inspired on their NU Counterparts, Moltres and Slowbro respectively. Still open to changes.
Electivire - I wanted to use an Electric but have pretty much limited choices. Don't want to run Bulk Up since an Ground easily scares the s*** out of him, especially sandslash . 
Scyther - Inspired on the Scizor's Acrobatics Set in Over Used. Also one of the top mons in speed in the format as well.

I’m not too familiar with the UT format but I’d consider replacing either Charizard or Scyther for something else. Otherwise you have 2 mons with 4x weakness to Stealth rocks. This could be problematic since you also don’t have defog and only Sandslash with rapid spin for rocks removal. If the opponent denies you the spin with a ghost mon you could be in trouble fast.

Yea. It's a valid point even though ghosts in the UT meta are very limited. Any ideas for replacers?

misdreavus is also setup bait to a lot of stuff most likely, mono hex isn't gonna do much, and you might taunt but something at +1 will likely threaten your team already.

(I forgot about this thread)

Untiered is far different, which mons would Misdreavus be setup fooder from? Bigger threat as setup sweepers are physical, in the likes of Sawk Bulk Up or Scyther Swords Dance. All of them fear Will o Wisp.

 

Taunt is more to stop rocks and slow bulky mons. And like i sayed on spoiler, Sandslash is straight up the best lead in the format and Misdreavus walls it completly because it's a ghost type(Cannot spin) with Levitate(Quake cant hit) and with Will o wisp (broke it offensive capability) and taunt(Prevent rocks). There is no other decent ghost type that does that job too well.
