Original thread idea by Age of Kings http://www.smogon.com/forums/thread...iples-team-complete-in-testing-stage.3513777/
*Approved by cant say & Hulavuta*
The purpose of this thread is for us to create a team as a community with suggesting, discussing, nominating and voting to take place. The result will be a team that we can use to efficiently ladder both on PS! and ultimately on-cart to take on the Japanese! Hopefully we can all learn and benefit from the experience of team-building but the end result is about battling online and trying to get the win. But even if we lose often this can be a positive experience and we can come out better for it.
Guidelines:
Please make only one selection per round unless stated.
Don’t push for “bad” stuff to be included. The viability rankings shall be a guide for this. Remember that this isn’t just a guide for stuff that we can use, this is a list of things that we need to keep an eye out for.
Explain yourself clearly and supply calcs, replays or evidence where possible but keep on topic.
Don’t get offended if things don’t go your way.
Respect the deadlines put in place.
All other sections rules apply. cant say & Hulavuta are free to intervene where they feel necessary.
This is the thread which got me into Battle Spot. As a result I would like to help in the physical creation of this team where possible to facilitate online laddering. Therefore I will be looking to help breed, locate and distribute the Pokemon where possible.
A special rule regarding distribution for when we get to that point: Respect the distribution rights which we will make clear at the time.
My Pokemon are usually non-redis and any that I breed or reset for in this case will maintain that rule strictly unless donated for this project.
To be eligible for this part you should be a regular contributor to this section or at least known on PS.
Approach me on my profile when I open that particular section.

Should this thread be a success then hopefully we can move back to Triples, Rotations or may even the Special format for a particular season. But let’s do baby-steps. Singles is the bread and butter for most of us and is the logical first attempt for this project. We have the analyses and boatloads of experience between us as well as the entire internet at our fingertips.
This should be the easiest selection of all to make. We need to choose something to build around, the heart and soul of the squad. This can be one Pokemon or a two/three Pokemon core. There will be nothing off-limits for this. To encourage initial activity I will allow two submissions per poster but please submit these individually.
Example:
This is not my suggestion although I figure someone will suggest it as it would be a fine pick.
I think we should build around dedicated lead Breloom, specifically the lead set from the analysis.

Breloom @ Focus Sash
Ability: Technician
EVs: 4 HP / 252 Atk / 252 Spe
Adamant/Jolly Nature
- Spore
- Mach Punch
- Bullet Seed
- Rock Tomb
This innocuous bulb can put anything except Grass types to sleep. It hits surprisingly hard thanks to Technician and could be used as part of a FWG core.
