Hi Guys and Girls, recently I've started to play showdown again,
During ORAS I created a team which I call Agressive Mega Manectric,
Which is the following;
Manectric-Mega @ Manectite
Ability: Lightning Rod / Intimidate (mega)
EVs: 252 SpA / 4 SpD / 252 Spe
Timid Nature
IVs: 0 Atk / 30 Def
- Discharge
- Hidden Power [Ice]
- Overheat
- Volt Switch
Serperior @ Life Orb
Ability: Contrary
EVs: 252 SpA / 4 SpD / 252 Spe
Timid Nature
IVs: 0 Atk / 30 SpA / 30 Spe
- Dragon Pulse
- Giga Drain
- Leaf Storm
- Hidden Power [Fire]
Scizor @ Choice Band
Ability: Technician
EVs: 248 HP / 252 Atk / 8 SpD
Adamant Nature
- Bullet Punch
- Pursuit
- Superpower
- U-turn
Talonflame @ Lum Berry
Ability: Gale Wings
EVs: 252 Atk / 4 SpD / 252 Spe
Jolly Nature
- Brave Bird
- Flare Blitz
- Roost
- U-turn
Conkeldurr @ Assault Vest
Ability: Guts
EVs: 252 HP / 252 Atk / 4 SpD
Adamant Nature
- Drain Punch
- Ice Punch
- Knock Off
- Mach Punch
Garchomp @ Focus Sash
Ability: Rough Skin
EVs: 252 Atk / 4 SpD / 252 Spe
Jolly Nature
- Dragon Claw
- Earthquake
- Iron Head
- Stone Edge
Utilising Manectric as my starter and mainly focusing on fast sweepers, surprise kills, as well as priority moves,
I've been able to get a ranking of 1600-1700 during ORAS,
I'm currently testing this team in Sun and Moon OU tier as well, and it fares quite well,
Though I would like to know your opinions on this team and if there would be any improvements.
A downside to this team that i've noticed is that mispredicting even one of your opponents moves will cost you a match... however I'm not sure if that's just the nature of the game in general.
So far what I could think of would be the following;
Switch Garchomps FS with a Rocky Helmet
Swap Flare Blitz for Swords Dance on Talonflame
So what are your opinions/suggestions?
Kind Regards,
