Neo Posted March 12, 2012 Posted March 12, 2012 Hai, Erick here again with some mad scientist thing I did. Yes it seems stupid on the surface, but when you think about it, it's pretty sexy. This isn't a full team, just a little idea. Shelmet (M) @ Eviolite Trait: Hydration EVs: 180 HP / 76 Def / 252 SDef Calm Nature (+SDef, -Atk) - Acid Armor - Baton Pass - Bug Buzz - Toxic Hey look it's Shelmet. So you know it's gonna be a rain team. Once he's out; you do the usual Shelmet things. Acid Armor to +6. Seeing how not many things can actually stop Shelmet once he starts boosting, it shouldn't be a problem. Then you Baton Pass to who? Chansey (F) @ Eviolite Trait: Natural Cure EVs: 244 HP / 252 Def / 12 SDef Bold Nature (+Def, -Atk) - Aromatherapy - Seismic Toss - Toxic - Softboiled AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!!!!! NO NO NO! IT'S UNHOLY! Yes, it is. Chansey is a monster once it gets started. After some testing, I saw that it takes 28% damage from a Lucario's Close Combat and 26% damage from a Scizor's Superpower. In other words, Chansey can start taking hits to the face and start laughing at them. Now I'm gonna leave it here for y'all to criticize. Quote
Administrators Amethyst Posted March 12, 2012 Administrators Posted March 12, 2012 Well, it's a monster aside from the fact that like, uh, it's totally walled by Gengar, Skarm, etc, broken by any phazer/Perish Song. I don't think to set up to +6 would make this the best choice- how does it do at just +2? It still has a fuckton of health to go through already. Quote
Neo Posted March 12, 2012 Author Posted March 12, 2012 No idea. That might be a good idea to try. This is only one leg of my next thread. "Attack of the Robot Chansey" strategy. Chansey might be changed with another bulky normal type. Who knows. Quote
Neo Posted March 12, 2012 Author Posted March 12, 2012 Yup. That's why I'm editing it as we speak. It's gonna be a whole lot different when I'm done. Quote
Zen Posted March 12, 2012 Posted March 12, 2012 Taunt's a killer for sure, but what about breloom? Breloom can send shelmet to sleep, and get some Bulk-Ups in Quote
Administrators Amethyst Posted March 12, 2012 Administrators Posted March 12, 2012 ...What's Liepard got to do with it? Do you mean Baton Pass to that instead? Quote
Neo Posted March 12, 2012 Author Posted March 12, 2012 Seeing as I would only use Shelmet in the rain, Breloom is no problem. Quote
Aero Posted March 13, 2012 Posted March 13, 2012 (edited) This is an interesting idea. With the right Rain team, this can go well. You're going to have to find a way to deal with Skarm, SubSplit Gengar (welp any gengar for that matter), and Taunt in general. Edited March 13, 2012 by Aero Quote
Zen Posted March 16, 2012 Posted March 16, 2012 (edited) Seeing as I would only use Shelmet in the rain, Breloom is no problem. Hmm, so what happens if your water gets cut in the middle of setup? Breloom aren't that common in weather teams, but some people do run self-powered Chlorophyll pokemon or manual Sand/Hail... Otherwise, it does sound like a monstrous idea. Unless of course you run into Unaware quagsire attacking from behind a substitute XD (a rarity, but hideously annoying sometimes). Edited March 16, 2012 by Zen Quote
