Team BEAST

[frostwind]

ok, first things off this is just a novelty set. Basically i wanted to see if the 6 beast legends could work together to form one team despite all the problems you are probably already thinking about. In advance, i will need guidance when it comes to EVs and items

Raikou pressure
252 Sp Atk, 252 spd, 4 def, life orb
Timid
move 1: volt switch
move 2: shadow ball
move 3: volt switch
move 4: hp ice

with voltswitch i can hit hard and then swap out to something more defensive. Basically a good scout. Without calm mind, i can add shadowball to hit all types neutrally or use HP ice.

Suicune pressure
leftovers, 252 Def, 252 HP, 4 Sp Def
bold
move 1: scald
move 2: sleep talk
move 3: rest
move 4: calm mind/hp elc

My first specially defensive pokemon. I really use it to burn/toxic. Scald is still powerful enough, ice beam for coverage. Im now thinking hp elc is best, but calm mind has its uses...

Entei pressure
252 atk, 4 sp atk, 252 spd
life orb/ choice
adamant
move 1: Flare Blitz
move 2: extreme Speed
move 3: stone edge
move 4: crunch
provides the physical power i need. Hp grass is just plain helpful.

Terakion justified
life orb 252 Atk, 252 Spd, 4 HP
adamant
move 1: Stone Edge
move 2: Close Combat
move 3: Rock Polish
move 4: EQ

Also provides great power. Great for switch ins to sandstorms too. It hits most pokemon fast and hard which complements suicune or helps out raikou.

Virizion justified
Coba berry 252 HP / 76 Def / 180 Spd
calm
move 1: Leaf Blade
move 2: protect
move 3: light screen
move 4: Sacred Sword

The other specially defensive pokemon. This ones a risk no doubt. I use Sacred Sword over close combat to keep its defenses intact.

Cobalion justified
air balloon 212 atk, 88 def, 208 spd
naive/ hasty
move 1: Swords Dance
move 2: Close Combat
move 3: Stone Edge / Taunt
move 4: Iron head
212 Atk / 88 SpA / 208 Spe

my last pokemon. It provides defense which is always helpful. I prefer this set as it can last pretty long and is a reliable switch in for my Raikou.

Basically, raikou scouts then swaps out to whatever is needed. The diverse typings allow me to always have a good switch in. Suicune can also switch in to water types, terakion into sandstorms, etc. Thanks for reviewing and helping.

Are you serious about this team? Its a total disaster. I mean Rash on Raikou? No. Change that to either Modest or Timid nature and put 252 EV's into Sp. Atk, 252 into Speed and 4 into DEF. Entei is a pure brute so go with Adamant run 252 ATK/252 Speed and 4 HP since your running Flare Blitz. Also drop HP, it has no use here since Entei is a physical attacker. I would instead run a move like Crunch or Howl if you aren't running Choice Band or Choice Scarf. Next Suicune is better with Bold nature. 252 DEF/252 HP/4 Sp. Def. Drop Toxic for Rest, drop Ice Beam for Sleep Talk. Then drop Water Absorb for Pressure. This set works very well and can prove highly effective as a buffer.

I would have gone with timid. Rash is the only way for the Crown Beast raikou with aura sphere, unfortunetly.
I will change the movesets to entei and suicune though.

 

[Elk-Dimension]

Use a Timid Raikou with this moveset: Thunderbolt, Shadow Ball, HP Ice, Volt Switch. Better coverage.
Also, you have four physical attackers and two special. TO alleviate this, I would make Virizion a physically defensive Calm Mind set. tbh, though, making a team based on a gimmick as silly as this isn't a good idea. There's too much overlap in the roles that the Pokemon can play.

 

[frostwind]

OK. i see your point because i really do need timid more then aura sphere.
What would you do to alleviate the roles?

 

[Hyperion64]

Why is volt switch listed twice on raikou? The last move should be hidden power fighting/grass.

 

[AlphaNinja]

Raikou can have Aura Sphere with a Timid nature. I think you have to many pokemon that run a weakness to ground attacks. Virizion may cover that as well as Raikou but you have try to limit the legendarys you use. Cobalion and Terrakion are powerful but one well place Earthquake or Earth Power and they are finished. Do you see what I am saying?

 

[Hyperion64]

^no, raikou cannot be timid and still have aura sphere, as the nature is locked on rash with the event one. Also, I did not know that the last move was hp, so replace volt switch with thunderbolt.
