Hello everyone. This is my first stall team and I'm nervous about showing to everyone. Don't hate... please. So without further ado, let's give a quick look at the team!
I built this team around M-Sableye and Chansey because I thought it was a good synergy. M-Sableye is weak to Fairy, which are usually Special-Attackers. Chansey sponges special attacks but is weak to fighting and physical attacks, which M-Sableye covers.
Sableye-Mega @ Sablenite
Ability: Magic Bounce
EVs: 252 HP / 252 Def / 4 SpD
Sassy Nature
- Recover
- Knock Off
- Flatter
- Shadow Ball
Ahh. M-Sableye aka King of Stall. Magic Bounce is bounces back everything and is a huge annoyance. The EVs are just for sponging Physical attacks. Knock Off is neccesary for stall, removing key items from Pokemon. Flatter is one of my favourite moves. It isn't banned, unlike Swagger, but almost does the same thing! Shadow Ball is to rack up some more damage on opponents.
Chansey (F) @ Eviolite
Ability: Natural Cure
EVs: 252 HP / 4 Def / 252 SpD
Calm Nature
- Toxic
- Soft-Boiled
- Heal Bell
- Wish
Chansey. The beast of the wall. On a side note, I have used Chansey to take down a M-Salamance 1v1 in a battle once. This is how I like to run Chansey. The ultimate SpA wall. Toxic is for wearing down opponents, Soft-Boiled forboiling eggs healing, Heal Bell for being an amazing cleric, and a Wish for passing wishes.Wow that's a lot of roles.
Starmie @ Leftovers
Ability: Natural Cure
EVs: 248 HP / 128 Def / 4 SpA / 128 SpD
Calm Nature
- Recover
- Rapid Spin
- Scald
- Reflect Type
Starmie is one of my favourite Spinners. Natural Cure is amazing in stall. The EVs were recommended on Smogon and they work pretty well. Scald is for the burn and Reflect Type is for messing momentum up on the opposing team.
Latias @ Rocky Helmet
Ability: Levitate
Shiny: Yes
EVs: 252 HP / 4 Def / 252 SpD
Bold Nature
- Defog
- Draco Meteor
- Recover
- Calm Mind
Who hates Latias? Latias is one of my favourite Pokemon. I put on a Rocky Helmetbecause I need to go mining soon to rack up some extra damage. Latias is also my spare hazard remover with Defog. Calm Mind is to boost my already amazing SpD and Draco Meteor is for killing any potential wallbreakers.
Gliscor @ Toxic Orb
Ability: Poison Heal
EVs: 252 Atk / 252 Def / 4 SpD
Adamant Nature
- Toxic
- Earthquake
- Knock Off
- Roost
By now you would've realized all my damage comes from Toxic. What is immune to Toxic? Poison and Steel. What is good against both Poison and Steel? Ground. Hello Gliscor. This set is designed to both wall and attack Poison and Steels. Like all my other sets, I have Toxic, Knock Off, and a healing move (Roost here).
Thundurus (M) @ Focus Sash
Ability: Prankster
EVs: 252 HP / 252 Def / 4 SpA
Bold Nature
- Thunderbolt
- Knock Off
- Taunt
- Toxic
WHAT? No Thunder Wave? Yep. This set is for getting set up sweepers with priority taunt and priority toxic. Intresting... I made this a defensive Thundurus to have a nice balance (3 defensive 'mons and 3 SpDefesive 'mons). Focus Sash is for a nice backup in case I do something stupid.
And there you have it! That's my stall team. Steel types are still a threat. Does anyone have any suggestions? I hope it wasn't too newbie and boring and thank you for taking the time to read this lengthy RMT. letterman4 signing out!
