VGC 2011 TEAM

[Toxicated13]

Basically I want a fast hard hitting balance team (doesn’t everyone) but my one wish with this team was to include my 2 favourite pokemon from the new generation… (Galvantula and Chandelure)


Galvantula #596
@Timid
Evs: 248 Speed / 248 Sp.Atk / 14 HP
-Compound Eyes- = win!
Item- ??? I have no idea :/
Bug Buzz
Thunder
Volt Switch
Energy ball

So obviously for those who don’t know his ability ‘compound eyes’ makes him godly. It raises the accuracy of his moves buy 30%…so thunder now has a 91% chance of hitting, instead of 70%!
Bug Buzz to sweep off one of his weaknesses (rock) and energy ball in case someone switches in a ground pokemon!
And volt switch, because it’s a hit and run, and with his other weakness being fire can switch in on my other favourite….


Chandelure #609
@Modest
Evs: 248 Speed / 248 Sp.Atk / 14 HP
-Flash Fire- = potentially if I switch in to save my Galvantula
Item- Choice Specs/Choice Scarf (scarf for more speed is what i'm favouring, as its already modest natured)
Psychic/Energy ball? (Galvantulas already got it so I don’t want it again?)
Shadow Ball
Overheat
Flamethrower/ Fire Blast (accuracy or power?)

Stops Fighting type pokemon, and sweeps or damages a lot of others! Big hitter, easily gets destroyed by a few common attacks. But a base special attack of 145...you cant really not have this ghost in your team, he’s cool, has huge power…and his name is similar to mine


Conkeldurr #534
@Adamant
Evs: 248 Atk / 120 HP / 136 Sp.Def / 6 Speed (might as well have the bonus 1 in speed XD)
-Guts- (with a flame orb, I’m already going to do some serious damage)
Item- Flame Orb
Bulk Up
Drain Punch
Mach Punch
Payback/ Stone Edge

1 Bulk up, and I’m definitely going to hurt someone, mach punch to finish and hurt fast frail pokemon! Now drain punch is in their because of flame orb, as I don’t have leftovers I need a healing move, and as drain punch got a bit of a boost this generation its obvious I’m going to pick it.
Now, damage or cover…I am favouring payback, just so I can shut up and scare ghost pokemon, but stone edge with this guys power….its hard to resist, but I think payback is going to be the 4th attack.


Hydreigon #635
@Modest
Evs: 248 Sp.Atk / 248 Speed / 14 HP
-Levitate-
Item- Life Orb/
Dragon Pulse
Charge Beam/Outrage (raise SP.A or do more damage?)
Earth Power/Dark Pulse (cant have both together so 1 or the other…I’m thinking dark pulse)
Flame Thrower

A big Giant Sweeper, I was thinking of putting n Outrage but Dragon Pulse is far better for the long game *face palms*…actually putting Outrage in is better than Dragon Pulse, as this pokemon is being used for last game sweep?
Either way, this guy is to do serious damage and sweep their last pokemon off the field.


And the last 2 I struggled with…


Amoongus #591
@Relaxed
-Effect Spore-
Evs: 136 HP / 128 Def / 136 Sp.D / 120 Sp.Atk
Item- Leftovers
Spore
Rage Powder (obviously)
Giga Drain
Protect

This is guy is to hold them up and take damage. Spore, then rage powder, then giga drain or protect (depending on how many moves it will take my other pokemon to KO or damage them a serious amount)


Whimsicoot #547
@Timid/Jolly
-Prankster-
Evs: 248 HP / 248 Speed / 14 Hp
Item- Focus Sash
Tailwind
Protect
Taunt
Leech Seed

This guy is a good wall and support but I already have a ghost pokemon in my team, so don’t really want to give the opponent the easy opportunity to sweep me!?!




Now after writing that all out and looking at my team…I seriously lack a decent pokemon (other than Conkeldurr)for a Attack pokemon. If anyone has any in put or ideas it would mightily be appreciated, but all I’m saying is Galvantula, Chandelure are staying
Thanks

Run charge beam on hydreigon, chandelier should have scarf, and amoongus should have black sludge and be bold. Also, whimsy might want a mental herb.

Don't VGC teams only use 4 Pokemon? What sort of a team is this, VGC or OU?

" It raises the accuracy of his moves buy 30%…so thunder now has a 91% chance of hitting, instead of 70%!
Bug Buzz to sweep off one of his weaknesses (rock)" I am sorry but I thought bug was neutral or not very effective to rock?

 

[Slowbro]

When you said galvantula with compoundeyes was godly, I have to say I disagree. Although it raises the accurasy of thunder to 91%, galvantula's maximum sp. attack stat is 322. That's just not that good.

Don't VGC teams only use 4 Pokemon? What sort of a team is this, VGC or OU?

It's VGC. You take 6 with you, and use 4 of them in a match, in case you would *happen* to need variety. They listed 6 Pokemon as the finalist's teams in a few VGC videos, most of them with 3 ubers, and it took me a second to catch on.

First, you should post the thread in our RMT section. (Be sure to read the rules first!) Make sure that it is competitive though and stay open to suggestions if it passes approval (as in, don't slam down a suggestion because it might not be your favorite Pokemon.)
