In bit of a pickle here. This really doesn't qualify as a RMT yet since i have no final product so I guess this is kind of like a extensive Complete My Team. Anyway, trying to come up with a team that needs to have Sceptile in it. I mean mandatory. Been sketching out some rough drafts, my initial idea was,
Mamoswine
Snorlax
Magnezone
Keldeo
Charizard (MegaX)
Sceptile
It has a few (potential lot actually, pretty horrible) of weak spots here and there that i didnt like on Showdown. Anyway im trying to construct something with Sceptile, a Mega and one OU legendary. Although we have some banned Megas and whatnot, im trying to ignore it for now because of the different setting I plan on using this team in. Although Blaziken is banned completely, no question >.>
Why Sceptile? Because he's my favorite Pokemon. And ive grown fear of using him with these rampaging Talonflames and endless amount of threats to him. But no more. He must rise again. Here's his intended but subject to change set.
Sceptile @ Life Orb
Overgrow
Hasty Nature 252 Spd / 252 Atk / 4 SAtk
- Leaf Storm
- Leaf Blade
- Pursuit
- Rock Slide
While I do have the Unburden Sceptile, im finding it hard to work with him, and this set appeals to me the most actually for saving him for the proper opening. His speed speaks for itself, besting almost everything except priority, his worst nightmare. Ive had the joy of calling him in on a weakened Pokemon to slam Pursuit for the kill, luring out a Flying-type (not Talonflame, im switching him right out) and nailing them with a Rock Slide. While Earthquake seems like a better choice, I like the chance to hit Flying as well as Fire types, and maybe if im lucky, something who's 4x weak to Rocks. Leaf Blade is his obvious strong physical STAB and Sceptile has the ability to set off a STAB Leaf Storm, doing insane damage while staying in with his physical offense instead of switching out if he was pure Special Attack.
If I find or someone helps in suggesting a better set, maybe even with Unburden, ill give it a shot. My only two ideas were Focus Sash (crossed off first) and White Herb w/ Leaf Storm.
Now for potential teammates, im simply gonna abbreviate their set/role. Movesets ill save for last since im more worried about synergy with Sceptile, type matchups, etc at the moment. As I said, im trying to make use of only one OU legend and one Mega (except Blaziken).
Keldeo (CM Setup)
Magnezone (Scarf Revenge/Talonflame killer)
Lucario (SAtk Mega)
Krookodile (Moxie Life Orb)
Mamoswine/Skarmory (Some form of SR Entry Hazard, in order of preference)
Latias (CM Setup, in place of Keldeo)
Talonflame (Bulk Up set)
Gyarados (DD Mega)
Gengar/Aegislash/Chandelure (Spinblocker)
These are just a few potentials I had although I dont know how to work it out. If you havent noticed, I play very offensively for the most part but that doesnt mean im not subject to change. I like to mess around with some utility and walls here and there sometimes but as I said, I need help in deciding who can go where. So this thread is open to all suggestions and whatever help i can get.
