This is the first ever time I have tried to venture into the realm of competitive Pokemon. Sure, I played Pokemon showdown, but I only recently made an account for Smogon. So, if this team is unviable, I wouldn't be surprised. Heck, I asked how to insert my team into the text. But I know you came here to see my team, so here it is:
Ponyta (M) @ Grassium Z
Ability: Flash Fire
Level: 5
Shiny: Yes
EVs: 76 Atk / 236 SpA / 196 Spe
Hasty Nature
- Solar Beam
- Flamethrower
- Flame Charge
- Hypnosis
Mudbray (M) @ Eviolite
Ability: Stamina
Level: 5
EVs: 196 Atk / 36 Def / 236 SpD
Adamant Nature
- Rest
- Sleep Talk
- Earthquake
- Heavy Slam
Vullaby @ Berry Juice
Ability: Weak Armor
Level: 5
EVs: 236 Atk / 236 SpD / 36 Spe
Adamant Nature
- Brave Bird
- Knock Off
- U-turn
- Defog
Spritzee (F) @ Eviolite
Ability: Aroma Veil
Level: 5
EVs: 20 Atk / 236 SpD / 12 Spe
Gentle Nature
IVs: 0 Atk
- Wish
- Protect
- Moonblast
- Psychic
Omanyte (M) @ Eviolite
Ability: Weak Armor
Level: 5
EVs: 36 Atk / 196 Def / 236 SpD
Relaxed Nature
- Stealth Rock
- Hydro Pump
- Knock Off
- Toxic Spikes
Magnemite @ Berry Juice
Ability: Sturdy
Level: 5
EVs: 36 Def / 236 SpA / 236 SpD
Modest Nature
IVs: 0 Atk
- Volt Switch
- Flash Cannon
- Recycle
- Endure
The main idea of this team is to adapt to any situation. I usually start with Omanyte, and set up stealthrock. If the opponent activates it's weak armor, take advantage of that speed boost to use Hydro pump. If not, stick to toxic spikes and, depending on the situation, knockoff. After Omanyte faints, or is otherwise not helpful anymore, I start to switch to my other team members. Vullaby for pivot, Mudbray and Spritzee for stall, Magnemite for stopping sweepers like Snivy, and Ponyta serves as a sweeper itself. I already have some ideas on how to improve it, so you can pick one for me in the poll below, or leave a different answer entirely in the comments. Thanks so much for reading all of this. Happy holidays!
