LuisPocho Posted July 25, 2017 Share Posted July 25, 2017 you do need an spinner, but I would use forre in that case, you already have 2 good walls and you lack something that can go against venu (wich is a great counter against that ludi)... maybe replace jolteon with tentacruel... and you could consider using that rain dance ludi with life orb Link to comment

You also lack anything else that can benefit from rain, so this set doesn't make much sense in your current team. Link to comment
HowLXG Posted July 25, 2017 Author Share Posted July 25, 2017 (edited) Thank you both for your input, I've decided I'll swap out the Jolteon for a Tentacruel, since I need a spinner and something immune to toxic, and it benefits from rain too! Also thank you @notmudkip0 for calling me out on the Ludicolo's speed, I'll raise the speed EV to 104 and lower the HP IV to 152 I'm still open to other suggestions though, feel free to comment.

Something that can stop electric types would be best, since you have both tentacruel and slowbro weak to it. Also, tenta does not benefit from rain that much, except for a surf boost (same with slowbro.) Link to comment

Eletric types are indeed a problem, but since most of them are special attackers, I think Umbreon can wall them efficiently. Edited July 25, 2017 by HowLXG Link to comment
DaftCoolio Posted July 25, 2017 Share Posted July 25, 2017 You are probably better off replacing aero or jolt with something that can hit relatively hard, there are a couple of walls that can sit in on all 6 of the pokemon you have up there like umbreon and porygon which you will have a hard time breaking.

True! I've considered trying out a Flygon with a moveset like Thunder Punch, Earthquake, Dragon Claw and Super Power, I'm just not sure about which nature to pick ..(adamant or joly?) Link to comment

Aerodactyl - Jolly - Rock Head - Life Orb EV's: 252 Attack / 252 Speed / 6 HP Moves: Pursuit / Rock Slide / Earthquake / Double Edge Umbreon - Careful - Synchronize - Leftovers EV's: 252 HP / 252 Spdef / 6 Def Moves: Pursuit / Moonlight / Heal Bell / Toxic Jolteon - Timid - Volt Absorb - Magnet EV's: 252 Spattk / 252 Speed / 6 HP Moves: Thunderbolt / HP Ice / Shadow Ball / Substitute Ludicolo - Modest - Swift Swim - Leftovers EV's: 252 HP / 252 Spattk/ 6 Speed Moves: Rain Dance / Surf / Giga Drain / Ice Beam Slowbro - Bold - Own tempo - Leftovers EV's: 252 HP / 252 Def / 6 Spdef Moves: Calm Mind / Slack Off / Surf / Psychic Arcanine - Relaxed - Intimidate - Leftovers EV's: 252 HP / 252 Def / 6 Att Moves: Morning Sun / Toxic / Flamethrower / Extremespeed I've been thinking about replacing Jolteon with Forretress, since I have no spinner or spiker, let me know what you think. Your team is very weak against magneton and venusaur sweeper. Also would be good if you include a pokemon with choise band and a pokemon with rapid spin, dont think only in ou spinners uu and nu can also do a good job. And bite is better for umbreon than pursuit (if you use persuit pokemons with substitute would be really annoying for you, bite can brake some) Edited July 26, 2017 by soyhector Link to comment
HowLXG Posted July 26, 2017 Author Share Posted July 26, 2017 Okay, I've decided to swap out Umbreon for a Specially Defensive Spinner Tentacruel; Also swapped out Ludicolo for a Venusaur; Finally, l swapped out Jolteon for a Swift Choice Band Adamant Flygon I had laying around. I feel like this team is pretty solid, I'll start playtesting it soon if there are no further suggestions. Link to comment
