Eeveelutions!

evan1o1

People have seemed to be rude on this forum, but I'll give it one more shot; this time with a VERY fun team, the Eeveelutions. I've always been fond of them, but just recently got around to making a team with them. It has GREAT synergy (as it very well should!), and, if used right, can be quite devastating. Though it seems to have a weakness to Scizor, I've found ways to combat it, and have won quite a bit with it. Anywho, enjoy, and don't be afraid to criticize.

FORGOT TO ADD THIS: This is a gen 4 team, so please don't compare it to a B/W team. I know, it's my fault for not mentioning that..

Espeon@Choice Scarf
Synchronize
Modest
252 SAtk, 252 Spd, 4 HP
-Psychic
-HP Fire
-Calm Mind
-Trick

This is my lead, usually. Get of the trick on something that'll hopefully make a difference. Maybe force a switch for a free calm mind. Psychic will do A LOT of damage from this pokemon and HP Fire will take care of the crazy steel types that will haunt this team. May even be a OHKO on Scizor. Solid sweeper Trick setter-upper, which could end up being a game changing thing.

Jolteon@Leftovers
Volt Absorb
Timid
252 SAtk, 252 Spd, 4 HP
-Thunderbolt
-Substitute
-Thunder Wave
-HP Ice

Okay, I'm gonna try this one out.. A Role-playing/Sweeping Jolteon. It can sub-up, T-wave, or just sweep with the pseudo Boltbeam combo. Sadly Jolteon can't learn Ice Beam in 4th gen... I think this will be a good surprise Jolteon. No one will expect it to be carrying T-wave, because it can already outspeed nearly everything. This could help cripple many pokemon that could harm this team, giving me a fair chance of taking them out. I'm thinking about cutting the speed EVs to 216 and adding in some HP/Def EVs, as it would still be able to outrun many things.

Vaporeon@Leftovers
Water Absorb
Calm
252 HP, 176 Def, 82 SDef
-Surf
-Wish
-Toxic
-Protect

What more can be said about Vaporeon? Defensive and Special sponge. This one runs Toxic over Ice Beam, which I think is very useful. With the whole toxi-stall plus Wish Protect, It can wall beyond end. It's a wall that can take down walls and have the power from a stabbed surf to take down sweepers. It cripples many teams so much, the sweepers, and this team has a great sweeping potential, can come out. Great roll player for any team really.

Flareon@Choice Band
Flash Fire
Adamant
252 Atk, 252 Spd, 4 HP
-Fire Fang
-Return
-Bite
-Superpower

This Pokemon really does suck... It's mainly on here, because I think it helps the team better than Glaceon. Usually, I go with the band, but I Sometimes use Life Orb; They're interchangeable on this one, I guess. Fire Fang gets stab and can pack a punch, and works well with the band set. Return gets a good hit from its 394 attack. Bite.... Well... For Ghosts, I guess. Really an awful, awful move. The move pool is just so shallow, I had to pick it. Superpower takes care of Rock/Steel/Ice, and also hits big. Flareon is good to help take out the pesky Scizor, if used right.

Umbreon@Leftovers
Synchronize
Careful
252 HP, 252 SDef, 4 Atk
-Payback
-Toxic
-Wish
-Protect

Look familiar? Yeah, almost the same as Vaporeon, but this time it's a special wall, and what a good job it does of that! I can't decide whether or not to swap out Protect for Curse, but for now, I'm liking protect. It's good to have two great offsetting walls on a team, and Umbreon makes a great compliment to Vaporeon. With 394 special def, It can wall pretty much all of the special sweepers, get a toxic off on a switch, or the sweeper, and sit and stall some more with protect. Payback is used, since Umbreon has a pretty bad attack stat. Gets stab and can be very powerful. Wish can also be used with it to heal damaged sweepers, if needed. Probably the best role player on my team.

Leafeon@Life Orb
Chlorophyll
Jolly
252 Atk, 252 Spd, 4 def
-Leaf Balde
-Double-Edge
-X-Scissor
-Swords Dance

Last, but not least (Flareon is probably least), Leafeon. The only physical sweeper. Backed with Life Orb and Swords Dance, It's gonna do a lot of damage. It has good type coverage with its three attacks. The cool thing about leafeon is that it has a pretty good defense, even without EVs thrown into it, so it can actually swtich in and set up! Good sweeper, what more can I say...

Sorry for you Glaceon fans! I like Glaceon (the least, but I like it enough), but I think it can only really shine in an Ice team. I know this team may not bring down the house every match, but it's fun, and can take down damn near anything! If someone isn't running a Scizor, they better watch out. I really think it's all how you use it, and how good you are at predicting your opponent. Separate, the Eeveelutions don't really do much, except Jolteon, Vaporeon, and Umbreon, but together, they really do work! It's like Gamefreak really set down and put time into making these have perfect synergy.
 
I'm very sorry that people have seemed rude/mean in anyway. It really just depends on whom you are talking with or see talking. But, there are always some of us that mean you no harm and want you to feel as welcome as possible :D
Looks like an interesting team, and seeing as it is fun and you have some success as to where you aren't rage-quitting, then why does it seem fit to change anything? Lol :p

But, if a rate is what you want, you probably will get some criticism seeing as this team just involves the eeveelutions. I really must suggest you use a baton pass team, because otherwise (lets face facts :/ sorry) the eevee's together just themselves isn't thaaaattt good of a team. They all have their different parts that fit in a team, and they all have different places in where they stand.
This team really gets wrecked by almost all of the setup sweepers of the current metagame at the moment. Examples: Reuniclus, Excadrill, Dragonite, etc.
Sorry, but if you seriously expect this to beat average BW OU teams, then you have another thing coming at you bud. So, i really suggest you do some baton passin' around if you want anything to get done. I do know that this team is just for lulz, and i can respect that ha. Although, if you want anyone to seriously rate this, its kind of hard to give it a really good rate when so many counters are produced from it.

Sorry again for people not being too nice to you, as well as i hope you have some fun with this team and don't let me (and possibly some other ppl) get you down at all.

Have fun and good luck~
 
I hope you don't think I was being rude to you last time. Sorry if you found me rude.

Anyway onto the team. Eevee teams are really hard to pull off.. The only ones that a slightly effective are BP teams but they still faail rather miserably. Not much of a choice from Pokes either doesn't help. I think you ought to run a Guts Flareon. Guts + Flame Orb will hit teams hard and you have Wish on Vappy to heal him with.

Don't like the look of specs jolteon. Maybe try sub with boltbeam and a coverage move? up to you.

GL
 
yes, i find people here to be unneccesarily harsh too.

3 things I noticed:

choice band+overheat? what about flare blitz?
crunch>bite
magic mirror>synchronize

flareon can learn flare blitz and crunch right? ...
if she can't, give it fire fang unless using life orb, if she can't learn crunch, then you might want to replace with wish or something, since, if utilized correctly, give you healing and free switching, but of course, it's your choice, and considering its poor defenses, it will likely have trouble anyway.

poor flareon, more attack than arceus and its still weak :(
 
I reckon Shadow Ball > Thunder Wave, seeing as how theres nothing THAT remotely slow that it is deadweight.

EDIT: okay Im confused now. Is this a 5th or 4th gen team. Becuase you gave Leafeon Cholorophyll..... If it is a 5th gen give Espeon Magic Mirror and Flareon Guts like I suggested.
