Hi everyone! This is my first try at a competitive trick room team! Still havent finished it yet completely but heres whats in store. Please let me know what i can do to make it better, all opinions are welcome! Thank you!
Reuniclus ( Quiet)
item: Life Orb
Ability: Magic gaurd
Evs: 252 hp 252 spatk 4sdef
Moves: Psychic
Recover
Trick Room
Focus Blast
note: i really like reuniclus as he's a very bulky TR setup with good covarage. Was still trying to decide between using psychic or psyshock. Reuniculus will usually be my lead along with someone else depending on what i see on the team preview. Also, going to be changing my Ev spread to the one listed by Dr, due to what he says which will make it able to tank a few more htis while still maximizing its attack power.
Marowak (Brave)
item: thick club
ability: rock head
Evs: 252 hp, 252 atk, 4 spdef
Moves: Double Edge
Rock Slide
Earthquake
Fire Punch
note: I think marowak seems to be a great Tr sweeper due to his amazing attack stat with a little durability with the hp evs and the thick club. His defenses arent that great but i think its not that big of an issue. Again, with these ev spread i hope to make him a little more durable and able to tank at least one hit while he retaliates and dishes out a hard hitting move. This is a moveset i thought would be ok, but not too sure about it. Edit: Going to be changing my moveset to the one listed by Dr as it looks very good and the fact that marowak can take down Focus sash and sturdy users seems like an excellent move in my book.
Porygon 2 (Quiet)
item: Eviolite
ability: Trace
Evs: 252 hp, 252 spatk, 4 def
Moves: Ice Beam
Thunderbolt
Recover
Trick room
note: this is my 2nd trick room setup. He seems to be very bulky when given the eviolite as well as giving him the hp evs and maximizing his attack stat with the evs in Spatk. His moveset i believe gives him good covarage, ice beam for those pesky dragons and flying types, and thudnerbolt for those water teams that i see so much of now adays and few resistances with a reliable way to recover his health should he be hit pretty hard. If theres anything to improve here let me know.
Escavalier (Brave)
item: Choice band
ability: Swarm
Evs: 252 hp, 252 atk, 4 spdef
Moves: Megahorn
Ironhead
Pursuit
Return
Note: Love having escavalier on the tr team as he has a very good attack stat and when tr is up has one of the fastest speeds around. I hate that his movepool lacks a bit but think these moves are good, especially since megahorn is one of the hardest hitting bug type moves around and both of his hard hitting moves get STAB bonus from it, and with a choise band i believe he will destroy all opposition, return im not too sure about, no clue what to add here., so i tossed in return for the time being. And the item im not too sure either.
Cofagrifus (Quiet)
item: Leftovers
ability: munny
Evs: 252 hp, 252 spatk, 4 spdef
moves: Shadow Ball
Trick Room
Nasty Plot
Energy Ball
Note: Cafagrigus is my 3rd trick room setup, i like him because hes very bulky and can take a hit while he sets up trick room and he will be my lead when i see there is the danger of fake out on the enemy team. He can then try to sweep with a nasty plot up. Not too sure of is his moveset and item to be held. Edit: Going to be adding HP fighting to his moveset as mentioned below, this will give him complete and total covarage, especially when nasty plots up.
Druddigon ( Brave )
item: yache berry
Evs: 252 hp, 252 atk, 4 def
moves: Outrage
Superpower
Sucker Punch
Earthquake
Note: Honestly didnt really have any idea who to get for a 6th member so i thought maybe druddigon? I think there might be better substitues out there for my current team then druddigon but not sure who might be good enough. Edit: Managed to get a Dw dratini to add a multiscale mixed dragontie to the team case something should go wrong and dragonite can come in to help out. What are your thoughts on adding this dragonite?
Overall i think the team so far has pretty good covarage, 3 bulky TR setups, and 2 maybe a 3rd there TR sweepers. Im sure im missing a few things so all criticism is welcome. Thank you and have a happy new year! :D
