Hi everyone. I'm new to the forum and competitive battling in general, i'm trying to build a sun team centered aroumd ZardY. Can someone suggest some offensive or defensive partners for a core? For now i'm using these pokes
CharizardY
Item: Charizardite y
Trait: Drought Nature: Modest
Evs: 92hp 4Def 212SpA 44SpD 156Spe
Moveset:
Heatwave
Solarbeam
Protect
Roost/Air slash
With the given EV spread, Charizard hits harder and is more bulky, only at the cost of speed. 156 EVs allow to outpace the modest Modest RotomW against which i found some problems as well as smeargle. i found this charizard searching on the web, so i don't the credits for having invented it, but it seems to work better than the classic 252 252 4 evs spread i used before. I paired him with Venusar bcs thay have good offensive sinergy, since venusar's giga drain is enough to scare water pokemon out of the battlefield.
This is the set
Venusaur
Item: Black Sludge
Nature: Modest Trait: Clorophyl
Evs:228hp 4Def 252SpA 4SpD 20Spe
Moveset:
Giga Drain
Sludge Bomb
Sleep Powder
Protect/Growth
the 20spe evs are to outspeed Mega Manectric and put it to sleep, otherwise it would be hard for me to kill it, I found venusaur to be good with Char bcs of their offensive synergy, he covers some of char counters/check like azumarill, kingdra, tyranitar and politoed, also providing support with sleep powder
Now this is core is pretty weak to Garchomp(not weak to grass and fire) and Talonflame(can outright kill venusaur with priority brave bird), i was thinking of a Scarf MIxMence to complete the core
Salamence
Item: Choice Scarf
Nature: Modest Trait: Intimidate
Evs: 4Hp 4Def 244SpA 4SpD 252Spe
MoveSet:
Rock Slide
Dragonpulse
Fireblast
???
Now Rock Slide is the crux of this set, since i can just take the hit from talonflame and ko back with it, dragonpulse checks garchomp, while fireblast is just to take advantages of the sun, i don't know what to put in the last slot but i was thinking about earhquake since charY is immune to ground moves
I apologize if i've made some grammar mistakes, i'm not an english native speaker, also i need some advice to complete the team, as u can see i only have 3 pokemon and i need 3 more. any tips?
