Pokemon Violet Team
I'm fairly recently somewhat getting into competitive battling. Mostly first got into it in Sword and Sheild. I tend to just use pokemon that I like the designs of or I just find interesting. Even if some aren't as good as others. I just need a little help with this team I have going; so some Pokemon aren't actually complete yet. As in like some moves are temporary, held items are temporary, etc. But here's my team so far!
One thing I will say is I have NO idea on how I would ev spread any of these pokemon with the exception of Gyarados. So I wont have their ev spreads. As I want suggestions on those and what I need the most help with.
So Let me run through their movesets and reasonings for using them.
Crocotoa the Skeledirge ♂
So I was going to go with Fuecoco from the beginning even before I saw the final evolution. When I eventually got him to a Skeledirge I was so taken aback how good he looked animated. I also had chosen the water starter for the last two generations, I wanted to go either grass or fire this time around. I noticed he has some good Bulk with high Special attack but he wasn't fast which I was ok with. I tested a few things with him but I think I wanted him to be a sort of wallbreaker I guess. I had an idea to use Throat spray with Skeledirge to get +2 SP ATK due to his signature and Throat Spray (Torch Spray). I was also wanting to build him to be bulky.
Ability: Unaware
Item: Throat Spray
Torch Song
Shadow Ball
Earth Power
Slack off
Terra Type: Fire
Jack the Dachsbun ♂
When I saw this little dog, I squealed so loud. I own one dachshund; used to own two. I named him after my first Dachshund named Jack. We had to put him down a year ago. He was about 14 years old so I basically grew up alongside him. When I saw Dachsbun, I decided no matter what I'm keeping him on the team and decided to name him after Jack. I saw his stats and I was wanting to run a Body Press Build... the Baked Press Build. I tired it out some and it works really well but Honestly aside from Play Rough and Body Press I'm not too sure on what the other two moves should be. So the last two in his moveset are temporary. Baton Pass was something I'm just messing with. Being able to pass on the defense buffs. Psychic fangs for weakness coverage. As for held Item I'm trying out Ganlon Berry, per suggestion from a friend who's a competitive battler. I also chose fighting terra for stab body press.
Ability: Well-Baked Body
Nature: Impish
Item: Ganlon Berry
Play Rough
Body Press
Psychic Fangs
Baton Pass
Terra Type: Fighting
Abundunce the Dudunsparce ♂
Now let's get on with this one. I absolutely LOVE Dunsparce. Was my favorite since I played Colosseum. Colosseum was my first game and I still have it. Dunsparce is my most favorite pokemon in existence. When I heard he was getting evo I kept a grain of salt. When i finally saw it I was 50/50 on it... Still decided to use it. And let me say, I love it... it just works in my opinion. I have a three segment form which took me hours to get. His nickname is an inside joke. On how the Abundance of Dunsparce I had to hatch, hence his name. Now I wanted to use a set I have done (sorta) with Dunsparce. I thought about using the Para Flinch strat with him. I wanted to make a careful nature to boost special defense and maybe put evs into it. Dragon terra is for stab Dragon Rush
Ability: Serene Grace
Nature: Careful
Item: Leftovers
Body Slam
Dragon Rush
Coil
Roost
Terra Type: Dragon
Scylla the Gyarados ♀
Gyarados is a Pokemon I always wanted to use! I never usually get the chance to due to me having a water starter or a water type pokemon by the time a chance came for one. So I decided to use one. It was always my most favorite pokemon of Gen 1. I consider her the Big Sister of my pokemon. (Yes I tend to give my Pokemon headcannons and all that lol). She carried through alot of the game. Overall throughout the game she was a hell of a fun pokemon to use. Now as a sweeper I'm not sure if i want Moxie or Intimidate. I'm leaning more towards Moxie. So ground terra type is for stab Earthquake and to get rid of her electric weakness
Ability: Intimidate (Wanting to use Moxie)
Item: Life Orb
Nature: Jolly
Waterfall
Earthquake
Ice Fang
Dragon Dance
Terra Type: Ground
Velkhana the Baxcalibur♀
So I always for the most part, want to have a dragon type on the team as Dragon is my most favorite type. So I was debating on Frigibax and when I went to the area with my friend to find one. I found her in the wall of the cave and caught her. She was the fifth team member and I decided to name her Valkhana. I love her animation where she swings her tail from side to side. Its adorable. So I'm not sure on her moveset like at all. All I know is I want Glaive Rush and Icicle Crash. So the rest of the moves I'm not sure about. I'm not even sure about held item. So out of all the others this moveset will most likely be the most unfinished.
Ability: Thermal Exchange
Item: ???
Nature: Jolly
Glaive Rush
Icicle Crash
Iron Head
Dragon Dance
Terra Type: Ice
NRG the Magnezone
Now heres one pokemon I did not expect to be on my team. So far I'm willing to replace this one but at the same time I grew to quite like Magnezone. I just needed something to check Rock Fairy and Poison mostly and mostly resist Electric or be immune to it. My friend suggested Magnezone to me. So far, I was also debating on using Toedscruel in place of Magnezone so I'm not sure yet. But anyway, I'm also not sure as to what do with Magnezone. I was wanting it to be a Dual Screen setter with its stabs in Thunderbolt and Flash Cannon. I did flying terra type to remove two of its major weaknesses.
Ability: Sturdy
Item: Light Clay
Nature: Modest
Thunderbolt
Flash Cannon
Light Screen
Reflect
Terra Type: Flying
Also as I said I have no Idea what to do with Evs. So I didnt really do anything to the Evs yet. Except for Gyarados since Ik how she works. So I strongly need help with Evs for each of my members.
