RE: In-game Team Rates
Future WHITE Team:
Gallade (Attack and HP EV trained):
Psycho Cut
Leaf Blade
Stone Edge
Brick Break
I don't have a Grass-type, and with Gallade's high Attack, I figured the Move Relearner could teach it Leaf Blade to fight off Water-types and Ground-types. I decided to EV train him for HP instead on Sp. Defense (which it has a lot of) so that when it gets hit by a physical move, he'll at least have a good amount of HP to shake it off as well as Special moves.
Charizard (EV train Sp. Attack + Speed):
Heat Wave
Fly
Dragon Tail
Bulldoze
The planned moveset needs help, especially since it has physical moves, but I couldn't think of anything else. Suggestions greatly appreciated for this one!
Haxorus (Attack + Speed):
Dragon Claw
Earthquake
Poison Jab
Swords Dance
Haxorus is meant to be a fast sweeper with high Attack, and with Swords Dance, this pokemon will be pretty much unstoppable. Dragon Claw is for STAB, Earthquake is because it's a really good and typical move for any team, and Poison Jab is to get at those Grass-types.
Emolga (Special Attack + Speed)
Toxic
Protect
Discharge
U-Turn
U-Turn is for Psychic, Dark, and Grass-types and to easily switch to a different pokemon since Emolga is.....well, not a favorite. However, you can make any pokemon good. Which is why Emolga will be a fast sweeper, and Toxic and Protect is to poison and keep protecting for slow fights if Emolga is needed.
Umbreon (EV train Defense and Special Defense):
Shadow Ball
Work Up
Faint Attack
Moonlight
Umbreon is also going to be the "annoying" pokemon, where it has high Defense and Special Defense so that any attack won't do much, and Moonlight will heal it to make it even more annoying. Work Up boosts the power of both Shadow Ball and Faint Attack, so that Umbreon can attack and do a decent amount of damage.
Lopunny (EV train Attack + Speed)
Ice Punch
Dizzy Punch
Substitute
Retaliate
Lopunny is NEVER supposed to go first. This is a revenge pokemon, using Retaliate quick and fast with EV trained Speed. Ice Punch is to have an Ice-type attack in the team, and Dizzy Punch is used because no pokemon (except Rock and Ghost) have resistance to Normal-type moves, and Ice Punch will take care of those. Substitute is to give Lopunny a little defense.
NOTE: I'm NOT planning on changing my pokemon species in this team.
Pokemon BLACK planned team:
Gardevoir
Froslass
Poliwrath
Eelektross
Tyranitar
Volcarona
Suggestions of the pokemon on the Black team are appreciated!
