In most situations you're not going to be running a dedicated lead, which is a Pokemon you'll always lead with. Instead in BW, you are most commonly going to lead with a Pokemon that has the most advantages against your opponent's team or that can set up Stealth Rock.What is a good base speed for a lead ?
Thanks, trickscarf mesprit @ 252+ is my lead.In most situations you're not going to be running a dedicated lead, which is a Pokemon you'll always lead with. Instead in BW, you are most commonly going to lead with a Pokemon that has the most advantages against your opponent's team or that can set up Stealth Rock.
However, if you're going to use a dedicated lead, a good Speed tier to keep in mind is outspeeding max Speed Smeargle (base 75), as that is the most common dedicated lead.
Many of your pokemon have the same weaknesses, in fact the only thing on your team which doesn't have a common weakness is eelektross and thats because it has no weaknesses. To build better teams you try to build it around a core like fire/water/grass or psychic/dark/fighting. Cores like these have better synergy and thus easier to use due to the fact switching is easier and you have better stab coverage across your team. try something like uxie(physically bulky, rocks and t-wave)/emboar(choice band)/spiritomb(all out attacker, black glasses)/lanturn(specially defensive)/rotom-c(choice specs)/cinccino(scarf), check the smogon sets. That should work at least in theory.I'm running Steelix/Crawdaunt/Flareon/Eelektross/Galvantula/Rampardos and I almost never seem to win. What am I doing wrong?
Rampardos and Flareon are extremely niche Pokemon for the metagame and need to be supported very well in order to work. They are not meant for use by beginners.I'm running Steelix/Crawdaunt/Flareon/Eelektross/Galvantula/Rampardos and I almost never seem to win. What am I doing wrong?
Moltres is a great partner for Aggron, since it smashes Steel and Fighting types and has useful defensive synergy with Aggron. They can demolish most stuff together thanks to this. Mesprit is also pretty good since it can hit stuff Aggron can't, and if you really want to it can also set up TR for Aggron to wreck in.What are some good partners for Choice Banded Aggron? And what Pokemon are fully capable of utilizing the holes he opens in opposing teams?
Thanks and I still think it is somewhat insane that Ala was in RU anyways lol.Yes, Alakazam was allowed in initial RU before it's Dream World ability (magic guard) was released, that was before my time though, so if you have other questions about it, someone else will have to answer them.
Personally I think your team will have a problem with Taunt users, such as Aerodactyl.I am trying to think up a new team. The general idea is that Slowking and Druddigon paralyse the opposing team before slow Sweepers hit them hard. I have a few questions for anyone who has made similar teams:
1. As Choice Banded Esca will be on the team how much speed investment will he need? I don't think he will be outspeeding even paralysed opponents.
2. What set would fit Rhydon best? I was thinking an all out attacker but I am not too sure.
3. As I have the aforementioned 4 pokemon and a speedy backup cleaner (Probably Sceptile or one of the speedy Normal Types) What would be a good pokemon for the sixth slot. I really can't think of one at the moment.
