currently im using:
-sableye, prankster, deep sea scale
- will-o-wisp
- foul play
- taunt
- recover
-Umbreon, synch, leftovers
- toxic
- wish
- protect
- snarl (lowers emy spatk)
-tentacruel, clear body, black sludge
- toxic spikes
- scald
- protect
- rapid spin
-skarmory, sturdy, rocky helmet
- whirlwind
- spikes
- sky drop (works nicely with toxic)
- roost
-venasaur, chorfyl, mega stone
- giga drain
- leech seed
- venoshock
- synthesis
-Gastrodon, storm drain, wide lens
- recover
- blizzard
- toxic
- mud bomb
(everyone built tanky with full HP, and either spDef or Def idea is to put up toxic spikes/ spikes and toxic stall out opponents while switching pokemon often to counter counters.)
pokemon reasons in order of most usefulness in testing:
1. sableye counters all normal, psychic, and fighting moves also he has destroyed most things on his own with his priority abilities and foul play to nuke physical sweepers
2. umbreon can toxic stall just about anything and has been amazing
3. tentacruel has been useful to tank predicted sp fire moves and put down the setup toxic spikes, and scout with protect
4. venasaur has been alright esp since he in mega form isnt weak vs fire/ ice anymore and can giga drain leech seed most targets
5. skarmory can tank most anything physical and can force switches with his whirlwind but in testing Fire moves and fighting and flying have shown their ugly faces far too often (talonflame, and blazikin in 80% of online matches)
6. gastrodon was put in to counter water moves and buff itself with stormdrain then sweep with acc boosted blizzard/ mud bomb (you cant get earth power currently on him in x y) but ive rarely seen water users other than protean greninja
my biggest issues come from Garchomp, Talonflame, and Blazikin and im pretty sure gastrodon needs to be swapped.
the only members i feel NEED to stay in this team are umbreon (maybe with a moveset change if needed) and Sableye feels so nice as having so many immunities and only x2 weak to fairies
Considering::
-Jolteon to outspeed other leads and nuke/ voltswitch,
-Espeon with magic bounce to counter hazards and such,
-Flareon with flash fire to counter fire moves
-ferrothorn with rocky helmet and ironbarbs cause he is a massive wall BUTTT with so much flare blitz from talonflame and blazikin i dunno...
so yah anyways been working really hard and i dunno what to do to fix it >.>
