Rock Polish Torterra

Yea I know, the Analysis shows one, but I kinda LOVE it.
Love it, so much, that I "upgraded" it a bit.
Tell me what you think.

name: Rock Polish
move 1: Seed Bomb
move 2: Earthquake
move 3: Stone Edge
move 4: Rock Polish
item: Life Orb
nature: Adamant
evs: 36 HP / 252 Atk / 220 Spd

This will make Torterra a pure sweeper. "Why Seed Bomb?" you may ask, cause this one is using Life Orb. Wood Hammer + Life Orb is suicide.
Poliish your Rock a few times, then sweep as hell with Life Orb.

What do you think of this idea? =)
 
I'm not sure what people find so confusing about it. You put in the attacker and defender. Then you choose the attack, items, and EVs. Where it says "positive, neutral, negative", that's for the nature. Nature for the attacker, Torterra in this case, would be positive since it's Adamant. If it were Jolly it would be neutral. So a Modest Special attacker would positive, Timid would be neutral.

For the defender, use those for whatever their nature is VS the attacker's attack. If they're using a physical attack against something with a Sassy nature, you would say neutral. If it's against a Bold nature, you say positive.
 
Okay I'll try. What Pokémons should I calculate with? :)

GEC -
Analysis said:
with Rock Polish is that it requires 220 EV’s in Speed to attain the requisite 203 to beat Choice Scarf Heracross.
 
You should calculate against stuff that you're going to be using the Torterra against/things that will switch into it.
 
this set does nothing to bronzong at all... at all therefor it is a horrible sweeper as it is completely and utterly raped by one very common pokemon

Yeah, because you should definitely be able to KO every single Pokemon in existence, right? That's like saying every special sweeper is a "horrible" idea because Blissey walls them.
 
Loetke - Any good ideas? xD Sry for these questions.

You should really do all this stuff before you post a topic. Run damage calcs against:

Blissey (Yeah, she's gonna switch out, but people like to see them anyway)
Cresselia
Dusknoir
Bronzong (yep, he beats your ass)
Gyarados
Salamence
Garchomp

Make sure you set attack stage to -1 for Gyarados and Salamence

Basically just run calcs for anything you expect to switch in when you send this out. I can't really help you more than that.
