Hi Everyone,
Wanted to share a team that helped me reach 1700 for the first time. I didnt expect this team to go that far but its hella fun laddering up with it. With that lets get into the team.
Blaziken:
Blaziken @ Scope Lens
Ability: Speed Boost
Tera Type: Fire
EVs: 4 Atk / 252 SpA / 252 Spe
Rash Nature
- Close Combat
- Focus Energy
- Earthquake
- Overheat
Saw this being used on a channel and decided to try it out. Spamming overheat without fear of Spa drop is so satisfying. Overheat has chance to 2 hit KO dondozo. Close combat and earthquake for coverage.
Yanmega:
Yanmega @ Throat Spray
Ability: Speed Boost
Tera Type: Ground
EVs: 252 SpA / 4 SpD / 252 Spe
Modest Nature
- Bug Buzz
- Protect
- Tera Blast
- Air Slash
Lead yanmega into samurott / darkrai / ting lu leads. Always protect to get speed boost and fire away. Protect is also good to stall out weather turns. Tera ground to cover heatran, gholdengo and gouging. Beware of teraing if there is rillaboom, as that could stop your sweep.
Mamoswine:
Mamoswine @ Never-Melt Ice
Ability: Thick Fat
Tera Type: Dragon
EVs: 252 Atk / 4 SpD / 252 Spe
Adamant Nature
- Earthquake
- Icicle Crash
- Ice Shard
- Trailblaze
Mamoswine is such an underrated glue mon. Ice and ground gives perfect coverage and trailblaze to outspeed mons such as cinderace and darkrai. Best check into raging bolt. Tera dragon defensively into mons such as ogerpon and rillaboom.
Maushold:
Maushold-Four @ Wide Lens
Ability: Technician
Tera Type: Ghost
EVs: 252 Atk / 4 SpD / 252 Spe
Jolly Nature
- Population Bomb
- Tidy Up
- Bite
- Encore
My favourite hazard removal. Able to sweep teams if given the chance. Tera ghost for zamazenta.
Gallade:
Gallade @ Choice Scarf
Ability: Sharpness
Tera Type: Steel
EVs: 8 HP / 252 Atk / 10 SpD / 240 Spe
Adamant Nature
- Psycho Cut
- Sacred Sword
- Night Slash
- Leaf Blade
Gallade with sharpness is a nuke, able to 1hit ko ogerpon and 3 hit ko walls such as skarm and corvi. I ran scarf for speed control. Tera steel for emergencies against roaring moon acrobatics and extremespeed dragonite.
Inteleon:
Inteleon @ Scope Lens
Ability: Sniper
Tera Type: Water
EVs: 8 HP / 252 SpA / 248 Spe
Timid Nature
- Ice Beam
- Snipe Shot
- U-turn
- Vacuum Wave
Since getting wrecked by snipe shot inteleon while laddering, i decided to give it a try. With scope lens, snipe shot has a 50% chance to crit, and can ohko threats such as darkrai. Vacuum wave deals surprisingly well into kinggambit. This is a bit of a casino mon. If you crit enough it can sweep teams, if not it still serves as a good wall breaker with its terrific speed tier.
