So I've been thinking about this pretty gimicky double battle team, resolving about 1 awesome pokémon named slaking.


Spr_4d_468.png

Togekiss @ Leftovers(?)
serene grace
bold(?)
252 hp/ 124 def/ 124 sp. def / 10 spe
- Follow me
- roost
- substitute
- air slash

Spr_4d_235.png

Smeargle @ leftovers/quick claw/ salac berry (?)
own tempo
Jolly
252 hp/ 4 def/ 252 spe
- detect/substitute
- belly drum
- ingrain
- baton pass

Now that you know the leads here is what I'm gonna do. subsitute with togekiss and detect or substitute with smeargle. Then keep using follow me with togekiss while smeargle ingrains and belly drums and then passes. the reason I think detect is better is because that way togekiss can roost freely, altough attacks like earthquake might kill smeargle that way...

anyway, the pass goes to:

Slaking @ life orb/leftovers (dunno which one).
Truant
adamant/jolly (again, dunno which one)
Ev's: I really need help with this. Should I make it bulky to survive longer? Or make it a speedy glass canon? doubting between hp atk and spe
- Return
- Earthquake
- fire punch
- Slack off

Return is deadly to almost everything, and earthquake gets those who return can't. Skarmory and gengar are still of the hook this way, and thus there is fire punch. Slack off is there to keep Slaking alive for a long time. Even with this belly drum and his roots sealed to the ground he's pretty useless, so here comes:

Spr_4p_488.png

Cresselia @ leftovers
levitate
timid
88 hp/ 84 def/ 84 sp def/ 252 spe
- Skill swap
- ice beam
- thunder wave
- ?

Togekiss isn't needed right now, so he switches to cresselia. Cresselia quickly swaps truant away and gives that nice slaking levitate (woo, a flying slaking, does that scare you?), and then either switches then truant to an opponent to make it switch, or switches herself. She can also thunder wave people so that slaking'll outspeed them.

shaymin/celebi@ leftovers
natural cure
jolly(?)
ev's: 252 hp/252 spe (???)
- Aromatherapy / Heal bell
- Psych up
- seed bomb
- zen headbutt

Toxic = death to slaking, and the attack and speed drops from burn and thunder wave aren't that great either. So we get a cleric. Just not Blissey, because she won't survive EQ's. Also this fella can psych up slaking's belly drum and sweep a little himself too. The question is who I should take, as they're exact the same, only celebi gets zen stab and does not fear fighting attacks, while he does have a pursuit weakness.

Meh, I didn't know what to do with the last slot. I might put a special sweeper there. But for now my idea was:

Skarmory @ Shed shell
Impish
252 hp/ 252 def
- stealth rock
- spikes
- brave bird
- whirlwind

Meh. Boring pokémon. But I don't know what else to do.

So feel free to comment and help me and such. I'd appreciate it ^^

Bold nature lowers the attack stat, so it's not a very good nature for Skarmory. Impish or careful would be a lot better, in my opinion.
 
yeah I meant impish. Any other advice anyone? I need it badly.
 
Cresselia is a crappy wallish pokemon, even if you are planning on using her as a gimmick. shes got to many common weaknesses (bug, dark, ghost) to be usable.
also, infernape rapes this team. as do most fighting pokemon.
 
Although it isn't a wall like Cresselia, Worry Seed Jumpluff is another good way to remove Slaking's Truant. Speed means you pull it off fast, and then Helping Hand lets you boost multi-hit attacks while you remain immune to Earthquake. You also have double powder if you want it, Aromatherapy for healing, and Captivate to harshly lower the special attack of (potentially, depending on gender) both enemies. Four-moveslot syndrome.

She's actually just there to skill swap, and maybe thunder wave a bit. As long as she gets the skill swap done it's ok.

stupid lousy monky... Maybe I should add something faster then it in my team just to kill it?

worry seed doesn't work on truant, which sucks. Plus jumpluff has pretty crappy defenses.
