I am kinda of a new player to competitive pokemon world. I would appreciate an all all advice and comments that you may have for my team.
This is my RU team that I made. I tried to make it around tangela. I saw that tangela was pretty cool and I wanted to have it incorporated into a team.
My team is as follows:
Uxie-
Item: Leftovers
Nature: Careful
EVs: 252 Sp. Def/ 180 HP/ 76 Def
Moves: Stealth Rocks
U-Turn
Light Screen
Thunder Wave
He is my special wall and generally my lead. I use Uxie to set up Stealth Rocks and Light Screen. He can take almost any kinda of hit from anything. The only thing is that I can not use him for much of anything else besides being defensive. I needed something that could take a hit as well put fighting type moves in their place. Uxie just seems to fit just perfectly. It can slow pokes down easily with thunder wave, while utilizing alright speed.
Galvantula-
Item: Life Orb
Nature: Modest
EVs- 252 Sp. Att/ 252 Sp/ 4 Def
Moves: Thunder
Energy Ball
Bug Buzz
Hidden Power Fire
Ability: Compound Eyes
Serves as my special sweeper. He can mess people up all day. However, he is not able to take a hit. I have always liked Galvantula. I love how it can OHKO so many different pokes in RU. In Ru there is not much that can hit as hard as Galvantula can and with speed that can back it up. Compound eyes is a huge bonus. Thunder rarely misses, at all. The typing as well is crazy, giving him the use of two STABS. Galvantula fits in just so well.
Hitmonlee-
Item: Normal Gem
Nature: Adament
EVs: 252 Att/ 100 Sp/ 156 HP
Moves: Fake Out
Rapid Spin
Close Combat
Earthquake
Ability: Unburden
I use him more as a revenge killer. I was thinking a reckless set but I thought that the speed boost could come in handy. He is able to get a few hits out. Otherwise he is pretty useless to me. This pokemon really is not do much work. Any replacement suggestions?
Tangela-
Item: Evolite
Nature: Relaxed
EVs: 252 HP/ 252 Def/ 4 Sp. Def
Moves: Sleep Powder
Leech Seed
Giga Drain
Knock Off
Ability: Regenerator
My defensive wall that can take a hit from almost anything, physical. I built this team around him. With regenerator nothing can stop this poke. Sleep Powder and leech seed and then giga drain keep a constant supply of HP to tangela. I never expected tangela to be so useful. Surprisingly it can mess people up. It has got me out of a few binds every now and then. With the evolite tangela has 500 some odd amount of defense. Tangela can even take a fire and ice punch with enough HP to recover and mess something up. A down side is that Special hits are devastating. There is no way tangela can take any super effect hit of the special nature and live to tell the tale.
Absol-
Item- Choice Scarf
Nature- Adament
EVs: 252 Att/ 252 Sp/ 4 HP
Moves: Night Slash
Psycho Cut
Super Power
Slash
Ability: Super Luck
My heavy hitter. I needed a physical hitter. Absol came to mind. He is an over all awesome pokemon with great attack and speed. He can be my check to ghost and dark types that mess up my Uxie. I chose high crit. moves to take advantage of the super luck ability. Being really cool and awesome packing a punch is pretty sweet. Being scarfed he can be a revenge killer or just a powerhouse. He has an arsenal of some pretty sweet moves that benefit him so well. I really just needed to add a physical attacker and absol was there.
Heatmor-
Item: Fire Gem
Nature: Rash
EVs: 252 Sp. Att/ 212 Att/ 44 HP
Moves: Heat Wave
Hidden Power Ice
Sucker Punch
Protect
Ability: Flash Fire
Sorta my check for fire types. I wanted a poke with flashfire to absorb the fire attacks. Heatmor had the power to take advantage of this ability. I went mix attacking just to get so i can get sucker punch. Not a whole lot for me to say on this. I just put him in to be a check.
I have not had much luck with this team so any advice would be amazing. I would love to know where the holes in this team are. Change anyone you feel and i will try them out. Any and all advice will help.
Thanks!
