Literally last nightbuttering up the crowd (who hasn't heard an artist say "you're the best crowd we've ever had"?)
Just like almost everyone, my team will be designed for Double Battles:
Item: Focus Sash. Ability: Lightning Rod. Moves: Fake Out, Electroweb, Charm, Endeavor. Ok, this is a Pichu. What does have Pichu over Pikachu and Raichu? Lowest possible bulk, Pichu is meant to die quickly. But not before using Fake Out and activating Focus Sash. Pichu supports its lead teammate with Lightning Rod redirecting opposing electric moves, giving him free turns to boost with Charm and Electroweb. Endeavor is a move that abuses the broken Sash. Honestly, one of the best things of BDSP is that said game started giving actual competitive movesets to almost all important trainers. This allows Mons like Pichu to truly shine despite having pathetic Stats.
Item: Gyaradosite. Moves: Dragon Dance, Crunch, Waterfall, Ice Fang. Platinum/Shield Pokedex: Once it begins to rampage, a Gyarados will burn everything down, even in a harsh storm. Harsh storms could be storms with thunders. In fact, Gyarados does learn some electric moves, despite not using them in this team, so it fits. Gyarados is meant to welcome all those challengers that came to the Gym with Ground Mons expecting no resistances. It uses Dragon Dance on the turn Pichu uses Fake Out and goes wild after that, supported by Pichu and next teammates. One thing that almost never happens in games is the Mega Evolution being used as a lead, its nice to do these kind of changes.
Item: Shuca Berry. Ability: Minus. Moves: Electro Ball, Nuzzle, Helping Hand, Mud Slap. The whole point of a Double Battle is to use this guy and its partner. Minun is the bulkiest of the 2, so it has a less offensive set and more focused on supporting with Mud Slap, Nuzzle and Helping Hand.
Item: Life Orb. Ability: Plus. Moves: Thunder, Helping Hand, Grass Knot, Signal Beam. The other pikaclone. Still can support with Helping Hand but this one actually hits hard and has coverage.
Item: Light Ball. Ability: Static. Moves: Volt Tackle, Dig, Brick Break, Discharge. The original Pika. Hits really hard with Volt Tackle before the ace Pokemon appears. After the ace Mon appears, it should be using Discharge to support the ace while doing damage to the foes. Pikachu in the anime always is represented as a fast Mon that avoids hits, well this one has Dig to simulate that, despite being slower than Raichu in games. Its important to have Static as ability on Pika in order to not redirect ace Mon's Thunderbolts.
Item: Air Balloon. Ability: Lightning Rod. Moves: Nasty Plot, Thunderbolt, Surf, Focus Blast. Unsurprising ace, it really is the strongest available electric Mon. Its bulkier than Pikachu, which allows it to use Nasty Plot. It benefits from every surviving teammate using Electric Moves to hit even harder, using Lightning Rod. With a +3 (at least) boost, it should be a powerful final challenge.
Please read the guidelines, this team is ineligible due to containing disallowed Pokemon.I do not know if I'm doing it right but it looks hella fun So...
Im the north of Sinnoh There is Regigigas. To wake him up you need all the regis, including regiELEKI. So basically this electric-oriented team is based on Hail (Rest in peace, dear annoying asf weather)
Froslass (F) @ Focus Sash
Ability: Snow Cloak
- Hail
- Thunderbolt
- Destiny Bond
- Blizzard
Froslass is a good lead to show some challenger that it's not going to be an easy fight. A rather deadly one, In fact.
Lanturn @ Icy Rock
Ability: Volt Absorb
Serious Nature
- Hail
- Blizzard
- Thunderbolt
- Brine
Second Hail setter, also has Blizzardbecause we all agreed on hating Torterra smhAnd Brine because its effect is one of the funniest on people Who do not know how it works
Abomasnow @ Icy Rock
Ability: Snow Warning
- Leech Seed
- Blizzard
- Aurora Veil
- Wood Hammer
Hail teams are not fun without Aurora veil And another Blizzard User. I pick Abomasnow because it does fit With the Hail theme of the team, And is rather easily (I think) encounterable In the Sinnoh region In multiple location And has always been There for at least a thousand years.
Luxray @ Never-Melt Ice
Ability: Intimidate
- Volt Switch
- Ice Fang
- Wild Charge
- Crunch
Luxray is arguably a Lynx, a rather polar feline, So it does fit in the team.
Besides, luxray is THE sinnoh electric type And it's a war crime not to include it in an electric team (it's a joke, relax).
Jolteon @ Expert Belt
Ability: Volt Absorb
- Weather Ball
- Shadow Ball
- Thunderbolt
- Volt Switch
Weather ball in hail becomesFairyIce type And Jolteon is one of the default Electric types in the game, And is a Good choice for an electric type.
Rotom-Frost @ Chople Berry
Ability: Levitate
- Blizzard
- Thunder Wave
- Nasty Plot
- Thunderbolt
Then the one that originally gave me this Idea, my favorite (not that I got much choice) fridge Pokémon! This set is Nasty and nasty plot + Blizzard are sure going To nuke the opponents. Also choppe berry cause Who would not want To finish their opponent With their Starter Infernape?
Still I don't know if I'm doing This right or if it looks too much like a RMT but it's fun!
