[TL?]

I thought double team wasnt allowed on PO?

I'm no expert at this, but your item choices and movesets are very strange to me. Why do you have king's rock with no flinch moves? Why do you have foresight? Why do you have multiple of the same type of move on one pokeman (ex: blast burn and flame charge)? Why do you have both special and physical attacks on so many of your pokemans? Why do you use atk EVs on pokemans with no physical attacks? Why such an even EV spread in general? Why hidden power flying for lucario? Why do you have sandstorm and sunny day? Why do you add EVs to the stat that your nature hinders?

 

[IceArrow]

Where to start,

1st: All your pokemon are in different tiers. You are using pokemon that should only be used in their tier which you are using in ubers.

2nd: Your pokemons movepool is not good. Double Team is banned.

3rd: A lot of your pokemons items are never used.

4th: Your EVs and Natures don't make sense.

[UltiMario]

Guide is somewhat outdated BTW.

Using Smogon as a guide/resource is certainly a better idea. Check out the site/forums/Smog/guides for all the info to start up.

 

[PsychoIncarnate]

Also I don't like the names

TBH I'm not good with fifth gen tier though.

I DO know DT is banned.

I think your using 4th gen tiers in this?

Edit: Even THEN, it would STILL be in ubers

Main Team Reworked

(See below.)

 

[War Anvil]

Main Team Reworked

Okay, so I've decided to completely redo my team, keeping only the Lapras and Typhlosion. The focus this time is Rarely Used movesets from Smogon, possibly keeping to a BLU Team theme. Comments and constructive criticism are appreciated, as well as suggestions for names (remem, only TF2 classes!).

Shiny Gallade (M) @ Leftovers
Trait: Steadfast
EVs: 240 HP / 224 SDef / 44 Spd
Careful Nature (+SDef, -SAtk)
- Bulk Up
- Drain Punch
- Night Slash
- Substitute

Lapras (M) @ Leftovers
Trait: Water Absorb
EVs: 20 HP / 252 Atk / 236 Spd
Jolly Nature (+Spd, -SAtk)
- Ice Shard
- Return
- Waterfall
- Dragon Dance

Shiny Ferroseed (M) @ Eviolite
Trait: Iron Barbs
EVs: 252 HP / 252 Def / 4 SDef
Relaxed Nature (+Def, -Spd)
- Stealth Rock
- Leech Seed
- Thunder Wave
- Gyro Ball

Typhlosion (M) @ Choice Specs
Trait: Blaze
EVs: 252 SAtk / 4 SDef / 252 Spd
Timid Nature (+Spd, -Atk)
- Eruption
- Focus Blast
- Hidden Power [Grass]
- Fire Blast

Galvantula (M) @ Choice Scarf
Trait: Compoundeyes
EVs: 252 SAtk / 4 SDef / 252 Spd
Timid Nature (+Spd, -Atk)
- Bug Buzz
- Thunder
- Energy Ball
- Hidden Power [Fire]

Druddigon (M) @ Leftovers
Trait: Rough Skin
EVs: 252 HP / 4 Atk / 252 Def
Impish Nature (+Def, -SAtk)
- Glare
- Dragon Tail
- Roar
- Dragon Claw

 

[Wave⁂]

Drop HP Fire for HP Ice on Galvantula (you don't need to worry about Ferrothorn). Because you just took movesets from Smogon, there's not much to say here, really.

Your team can't really do much to Moltres, (especially if it runs Substitute) relying on Galvantula to revenge kill it, taking Stealth Rocks damage every time. Sub + 3 Attacks Medicham kills everything. Aside from that, pretty solid team.

 

[Syphtan]

B+W OU Team
Politoed (M) @ Leftovers
Trait: Drizzle
EVs: 252 HP / 252 Def / 4 SDef
Bold Nature (+Def, -Atk)
- Scald
- Hypnosis
- Protect
- Encore

Vaporeon (M) @ Leftovers
Trait: Hydration
EVs: 248 HP / 160 Def / 100 SDef
Bold Nature (+Def, -Atk)
- Acid Armor
- Scald
- Ice Beam
- Rest

Toxicroak (F) @ Leftovers
Trait: Dry Skin
EVs: 244 HP / 252 Atk / 12 Def
Adamant Nature (+Atk, -SAtk)
- Bulk Up
- Substitute
- Sucker Punch
- Drain Punch

Azumarill (M) @ Choice Band
Trait: Huge Power
EVs: 252 HP / 252 Atk / 4 Spd
Adamant Nature (+Atk, -SAtk)
- Waterfall
- Aqua Jet
- Superpower
- Ice Punch

Ferrothorn (F) @ Leftovers
Trait: Iron Barbs
EVs: 252 HP / 88 Def / 168 SDef
Relaxed Nature (+Def, -Spd)
- Stealth Rock
- Leech Seed
- Gyro Ball
- Power Whip

Latias (F) @ Leftovers
Trait: Levitate
EVs: 252 HP / 4 Def / 252 Spd
Timid Nature (+Spd, -Atk)
- Dragon Pulse
- Wish
- Roar
- Protect

Politoad is used mainly for weather and Encore, cause other than that Politoad is terrible.
Vaporeon is used to absorb status and to wreck after it gets 3 Acid Armors up. The current EV set allows it to take 40.17 - 47.94% from a volt switch from everyone's favorite Poke Rotom-W, and can after one Acid Armor set up on any physical attacker if Vaporeon is still at full HP.
Toxicroak is my back up revenger and as a sweeper. A lot of the time I use him to force switches from Jellicent that lack Will-O-Wisp.
Azumaril main revenger.
Ferrothorn is my entry hazard user and mix wall leaning more towards Defense. He forces many switches like most Steel types do.
Latias is my Special wall and Wish passer, thats about all it does.

Things this team has problems with, Latios is the biggest threat. Latias is my Special wall but I'm not switching in Latias against a Draco Meteor. Vaporeon, a very good special sponge takes 69.54 - 82.28% from a Draco Meteor so Vaporeon dies if its not already out, and Ferrothorn gets one shot by HP fire and Draco Meteor does 37.21 - 43.75% so he can't stand up to too many switch-ins.

 

[Syphtan]

Instead of using smogon's damage calculator, I use this because it has 5th Gen and has an All Vs. One and a One Vs. All setting. http://honko2.freehosting.com/manly_calc.html

What do think of my G5 Ubers team? Comments and criticism are rather necessary, you know.

 

[Wave⁂]

Darkrai has no EVs. Darkrai is also your ONLY answer to fast sweepers. If a Mewtwo gets a Calm Mind up and your Darkrai's Sash is broken, you're done. You need priority or a Scarfer. I'd recommend a Scarf Palkia or replacing Excadrill entirely with maybe a Scarf Garchomp or something.

 

[War Anvil]

Dragons. Dragons everywhere.

So I've decided to completely rework my Uber Team, keeping only Palkia and Zekrom.

What's your say?

 

[IceArrow]

Your team has a huge dragon weakness. I would use a steel type like ferrothorn or skarmory instead of Reshiram. Also replace palkia with scarf kyogre.

 

[Grizzlpaw]

Hmm... I thought this was the official post your team thread, but now that I look more closely, I realize it isn't

Please, pay no attention to the dyslexic burying his head in shame...

 

[Wave⁂]

I'd personally go with Skarmory, it can take Fire-type moves in the rain, and you could use the Ground resist.

Reeeead the title.

 

[Grizzlpaw]

Why toxic on Skarmory? Its a good move, but it has better options. If you want, you can try using Giratina Land form with Toxic. Your team already has 4 other power houses, and it can be used to tank special attacks aimed at skarmory.

I put Toxic on Trickster because, well, he's meant to troll. He isn't called Trickster without a reason!

Welcome to SmashBoards!

This isn't really the right thread to go to if you're looking for a match of any sort. If you're looking for Pokémon battles, you'll want to go to the Battle Request Thread there. As for Brawl, you'll want to go to The SmashBoards Arena there.

Also, personal tip, you probably want to use a different font. I'm using a bit of an unusual skin, but it's nearly impossible to read that color on my background, and it's somewhat difficult to read on most skins.
