An UU Team

[DCM]

With the evolution of the UnderUsed Metagame, my old UnderUsed team soon became out of Date (with Umbreon being moved up, and the introduction of Dugtrio/Donphan). As I Looked through the list of UU-NU tiers, I noticed two pokemon that really deserve more use than they have received. Hence, i made one my premier sweeper, while the other my revenge Killer.

The Unusual Lead
Primape@Focus Sash
252 Attack/252 Speed
Adamant
Vital Spirit
Close Combat
Payback
Ice Punch/Fire Punch (thoughts?)
Vacuum Wave

Yes, I understand. This is a VERY uncommon lead, but it functions very well. Vital Spirit prevents Roserade from putting it to sleep, Ice Punch is for SE against her. Close Combat is for stab, and vacuum wave is for Priority, a STAB one at that. Payback allows primeape to hit Uxie, Mismagius, Rotom for SE. Honestly, he works very well, hes uncommon, meaning most wont know his ability, and he is a very good lead.

Yanmega@Life Orb
252 Special Attack/ 152 Defense / 100 Speed
Modest
Speed Boost
Protect
Bug Buzz
Air Slash
Hidden Power Ground 70

Your Standard Speed Boosting Yanmega. Depending on the threat, Yanmega either Protects, or attacks with the appropriate move. Hidden Power Ground is for Coverage against Regirock (47%-50% Damage) and Registeel (35%-40% Damage), making one of his best counters a 3HKO. Life Orb is for an extra boost, making Mantine a 3HKO, Uxie a 2HKO (68%), and Clefable a 3HKO (38%)


ProblemsStandard problems for a Revenge Killer. I lose all momentum i had, and the opponent gets a free set up turn

Milotic@leftovers
252 HP/ 252 Spe Def
Marvel Scale
Calm
Toxic
Surf
Confuse Ray
Recover

My Annoyer, as well as Special Wall. He's like blissey, but with better type resists! and not a fat ass. Confuse Ray+Toxic is a very annoying combination, recover is a recovery move, to ensure he can continue annoying, and surf for STAB.

ProblemsLapras, Poliwrath, and Steel Types. Also, anything with physical bulk

Ambipom@Life Orb
252 Att/252 Speed
Jolly
Technician
Fake Out
Double Hit
Fire Punch
U-Turn

This is my slightly Odd Ambipom Set. Standard Ambipom Runs Fake Out for the Technician boost and the flinch, and U-Turn for Scouting. Double Hit and Fire Punch are the Oddities on this set. Double Hit is excellent at breaking substitutes and Focus Sash, which is always helpful when sweeping. Fire Punch is to counter Registeel, Tinted Specs Yanmega, Leafeon, Tangrowth, etc.

ProblemsGhost Types, Specifically Rotom

Donphan@Leftovers
252 HP/ 100 Attack / 152
Sturdy
Impish
Ice Shard
Stealth Rock
Rapid Spin
Earthquake

My Bulky Donphan, running the Standard Set. I use him to stop physical attackers, specifically fighting types. Ice Shard to combat Yanmega, Rapid Spin to rid myself of Stealth Rocks and Stealth Rocks to put up my own.

ProblemsPretty much any water type, or anything that carries Grass Attacks. I am seeking a better Rapid Spinner/Stealth Rock User.

Leafeon@Life Orb
100 Attack/ 152 Defense / 252 Speed
Adamant
Leaf Guard
Swords Dance
Quick Attack
Leaf Blade
X-Scissor

My Favorite Addition to D/P. He is bulky enough to rattle off a swords dance, fast enough to abuse it, and strong enough to use it well. Quick Attack is for Priority, X-Scissor is for Dark/Psychic and other Leafeon, Leaf Blade for STAB against Rock/Ground/Water, and Swords Dance for the obvious boost.

Any Advice is Welcome.

Swap Donphan for a Kabutops spinner, and put a Dugtrio revenge killer in for Octillery.
Grass attacks can go to Leafeon or Yanmega.

I don't really like Octillery unless you've passed it some speed boosts, because it can't be phazed, and you can use Charge Beam to boost it's Sp. Atk =]

 

[DCM]

Dugtrio is an awful revenge killer. He is crippled by anything that's not registeel or regirock

 

[DRWS!]

Hmm, I've only used him in OU, and he's perfect. Whatever floats your boat

 

[Our Wasted Years]

I agree for the Kabutops>Donphan switch. Kabutos is way better then Donpahn from my experience.

 

[Bundalings]

I use a Kabutops every once in a while, and I think Rain Dance/Aqua Jet/Stealth Rock/Rapid Spin is the best moveset (Hold Item would be Focus Sash), but Rain Dance is expendable. Use Rain Dance if the foe is faster, then use Stealth Rock or Rapid Spin depending on the situation. You'll be guaranteed to get off at least two attacks (with Swift Swim in play, or with Aqua Jet) due to the Focus Sash (unless Spikes/SR/TS is in play), and be able either cause some damage with Aqua Jet, spike the oponent with SR, or spin away Stealth Rock from your team.

Just thought I'd throw that out there. =P

 

[Nanoka-kun]

what's a revenge killer

 

[SharKing]

A Pokemon that comes in when one of its teammates falls, made to destroy what destroyed its teammate.

I've been trying Kabutops out, and in my opinion, he is to fragile to be a rapid spinner.It seems that whenever i use him, he needs to come in after a Pokemon has been KO'd, as hes to fragile to switch into things. Donphan can switch into physical attacks with ease, i think i am gonna stick with him.

but i need something to break registeel and chansey. anyone have any thoughts?

That's where you could try Hitmontop or any of the Hitmons as they can outspeed them with ease, or try to put HP Fighting on a Wall or HP Fire somewhere. I would guess you would need a stall/wall breaker here where Gliscor comes in handy but thats OU. So my suggestion would be try a fighting Pokemon or just give someone HP Fighting and HP Fire

1) The hidden powers do not do nearly enough damage for my liking, and theyre both special, meaning chansey shrugs them off.

2) I have been using Primeape in the place of Octillery, after deeming him as an inferior revenge killer. he works surprisingly well.

Oh very nice. I never liked hims so I didn't bother trying him out, but nice. I'm guessing it has a scarf or a choice on it?

 

[H-con]

You could of course just dump Seed Bomb on Octillery and learn it Energy Ball, and put all EVs into Sp. Attack, but that is unless you make your Revenge Killer Primeape. I believe you'll hit the mentioned Rock/Ground (is there muck of these in UU anyways?) types prooobably have higher Def. than Sp. Def. But then again, your most likely helpless against Chansey.

I changed the top post, go check it out.
As for the Seed Bomb to Energy Ball switch, i had wanted to make him a mixed revenge killer, but he didnt work out to well.
Go check out the top post for updates, any help is welcome.
