Although the team seems rough, I definitely do think that your suggestions are better. But you'd be shocked how hard it is to kill Meganium when he is played well. He has single handedly won me a lot of games because of the DEF investment and Reflect combo. I use the Rotom-W in combo with the Meganium because they counter each others weaknesses.

The Mega Banette isn't totally a suicide Poke though. With his pretty good ATK stat, fully invested, I definitely like using the Destiny Bond as a final resort. It's usually for Pokemon that I can't kill like Ferrothorn or Venusaur. So it is definitely useful when it needs to be. Since he does get Prankster, he also can Will-o which makes a lot of physical sweepers useless with the Reflect combo. The team has a lot of synergy.

But the Meowstic I made just for fun, and I was trying to incorporate it into a team, but it's just really not good. I am trying to find something for a solid 6th. But yeh, I just usually use lower tiered guys and they could work if you really want them to. It's a little more fun to me that way.

Always run Weakness Policy on Dragonite and Tyranitar. Mainly because they have the bulk to withstand a super effective hit. Same with Aegislash if you decided to use one of those. Also, what I have found to help me the most if a few priority moves. Here is my current team..

Honchkrow
Nautre/Ability: Adamant ~ Moxie
Item: Lum Berry (for prankster or speedy will-o-wisps)
EVs: 252 HP/ATK 4 Speed

Sucker Punch (good priority against Aegislash, even with his bulk, it still does a lot of damage)
Brave Bird
Pursuit (for when you know the guys are going to withdraw, catch them before they swap)
Roost

Meganium
Nature/Ability: Bold ~ Overgrow
Item: Leftovers
EVs: 252 HP/DEF 4 SAtk

Leech Seed
Energy Ball
Synthesis
Reflect

The goal with him is to set up the reflect or leech seed first turn depending on the opponent. He does not have the most bulk, but he is so useful. He has single-handedly won me a lot of matches because he is so bulky with reflect up. The reason I don't run Giga Drain is because he cannot learn it in Gen 6. Which doesn't make any sense to me..

Banette
Nature/Ability: Adamant ~ Frisk/Prankster
Item: Banettite
EVs: 252 HP/ATK 4 DEF

Shadow Sneak
Destiny Bond (Breed with a Gengar)
Will-o-Wisp
Knock Off

The main point of Banette is to try and force someone out if you manage to catch a banded Normal/Fighting user, this is even better. Although he doesn't have much bulk, using him with Meganiums reflect helps a lot on swapping him in. Once he gets prankster, either Destiny Bond to get rid of a huge threat, or just burn them if you can manage to tank 2 of the hits. My Banette has taken down Garchomps that I have burnt + had reflect up. He is basically a suicide Poke though.

Rotom-W
Nature/Ability: Bold ~ Levitate
Item: Sitrus Berry
EVs: 252 HP/DEF

Hydro Pump
Thunderbolt
Volt Switch
Will-o-Wisp

For when you can't get Banette in safely, it is always nice to have a back up burner. Since he has such a solid typing, you can pretty much swap him into any hit and he will tank it well. Even if it hits a little more than half the first turn, once you eat the Sitrus you should be able to take 2 and at the very least get a Will-o-Wisp off to help out the rest of the team.

Meowstic-F
Nature/Ability: Timid ~ Competitive
Item: Choice Specs
EVs: 252 SAtk/Speed 4 HP

Thunderbolt
Energy Ball
Dark Pulse
Psyshock

Although I have covered a lot of those moves already with previous Pokemon, it is nice to have a speedy late game sweep with some neutral moves on the remaining Pokemon. I have had some good success with Meowstic-F. Especially if they have an Intimidator on their team.

Jolteon
Nature/Ability: Timid ~ Volt Absorb
Item: Air Balloon
EVs: 252 SAtk/Speed 4 HP

Hidden Power (Ice) This is tricky to get when breeding for Kalos. Gotta make sure you are lacking in ATK/DEF to get it.
Shadow Ball
Thunderbolt
Volt Switch

Jolteon is very very fast, with a Timid nature and the investment, he has around 200 base Speed. He is a solid lead if facing a Greninja lead because he outspeeds by 7 or so. If you are going to lead with it, you should Volt Switch out. So if the Greninja is sashed, you can swap into something that will tank the hit from the Greninja better than frail Jolteon would. Another good alternative to holding the Balloon would be a Life Orb.

The entire moral to this team is to keep momentum with the volt switching and bulk. If you get caught by a Garchomp or something, a HP Ice will likely one shot it. You lack in some areas when it comes to facing a Ferrothorn or something, but when it comes to Battle Spot, it should be pretty helpful. The Pokemon that I would be most prone to switch would be Meowstic. If I do swap him out, I would choose Houndoom or something that could cover Fire/Dark. If you're planning on running a team for a 6v6, the main goal to it is to keep momentum the entire match. Even if you can't use Volt Switch, after 1 or 2 of the turns of them swapping on it, you should be able to predict it the next time you send him out and can catch them.

X and Y/OmegaRuby and AlphaSapphire / Breeding giveaway
« on: May 15, 2014, 07:14 »
I bred a 5 IV shiny Greninja, I have a back up non-shiny one. Because shinies lost their flare this gen with all the cheats to get them, I don't care for it really. It's got Protean also. For anybody who is questioning it, I was trying to do a giveaway on Twitter. I want to start doing regular shiny giveaways there. I don't know if this is legal or not on here, but if you guys want to check out my twitter page, you can see the Greninja in all it's glory. If you want to follow/retweet the posts to get the chance to win more shinies, be my guest. But for now, every person who comments on this post will be entered to win.

Here is my twitter for further information: https://twitter.com/Breed4You

I will be giving this away in 2 days, good luck to all.

I ran into a shiny Rhydon. I caught it. And put it GTS. Wild Shinies are useless really.

X and Y/OmegaRuby and AlphaSapphire / LF> PU Tier Battles
« on: April 02, 2014, 05:29 »
PU Tier is Partially Used tier. If you want to start battling like this, I'd LOVE to start battling a bit.

Here is a list of the PU Pokes up to Gen V. I am not 100% sure who is in Gen VI yet.

X and Y/OmegaRuby and AlphaSapphire / UU Battle Spot?
« on: March 21, 2014, 05:18 »
Anybody else run that? I am running mainly UU pokes. Here is my current squad.

Shuckle
Aerodactyl (Mega)
Tauros
Dewgong
Crawdaunt
Magmar

It's been working decently well on battle spot. Only sometimes do I run into some super OU teams that I can't kill cause of bad choices. Ferrothorn is the worst to deal with I've found, but I like this team. Thoughts? Teams?

Makes sense now, I appreciate that. I have one with Adaptability already, just not with Aqua Jet. I'll try breeding them and see the result.

EDIT:
Finally got it, I haven't bred in so long, but I didn't know the Ability had to be on one of the parents. Always thought it was random. Got an all Egg move Crawdaunt now! If anybody wants to check out my set, it's been working pretty well in battle spot.

Crawdaunt @ Focus Sash
Ability: Adaptability
EVs: 252 Speed, 252 Atk, 4 HP
Nature: Adamant
Moveset:
Dragon Dance
Aqua Jet
Knock Off

Superpower

I usually set up 1 Dragon Dance first turn. Knowing that my opponent may either switch out, or take me to my sash. I never lead with it because it hasn't worked out well. But clean swapping it in on something that will for sure OHKO it helps.  Once you get the Dragon Dance up, it isn't out sped by much. I've swept multiple times with Crawdaunt. Love this little bugger, hopefully some of you take the time to test it out!

How do you get Adaptability on it? I can't seem to get one. I've hatched 50+ eggs to get all his eggs moves + EV's. I've gotten the moves I want, but I can't get anything but his normal 2. Is it a Gen V thing?

SHINY ABSOL!! Serious Nature, 31 IV's in ATK, DEF. Not bad for a wild poke. I love it. First shiny I freaked out about.

No IV's on them, but part of your work is done if you want a Belly Drum Azumarill. I could use any NU, UU, RU comp Pokes. (Good natures please.)

Leave something here if you wanna trade.

X and Y/OmegaRuby and AlphaSapphire / LF> Eevee with Heal Bell
« on: February 19, 2014, 06:03 »
I need any Eevee dog with Heal Bell. I need one to complete my comp team, but you can only get it in Gen 4 apparently. I do not have any Gen 4 games.. If anybody could help, I'll offer my Xerneas, Yveltal, etc. Respond here for me if you have one. Nature doesn't matter as much. If you have a Calm one, I'd appreciate it. Thanks.

Ahem. I recently began Poké Banking some of my shinies, and they look wonderful. One of those includes my wonderful Female Snivy I got from SRing in White 2 c:

I got a shiny Azumarill today. Too bad it's got a Quiet nature and also no Aqua Jet T_T

Just caught a shiny Seviper.

Sidenote:

Does anybody ever watch YouTube videos of people finding shines? There's a pattern.. it's either..

1.) They yell the Pokemon's name over and over with the word "Shiny" in front of it. (e.i. OMG SHINY DEOXYS, SHINY DEOXYS, SHINY DEOXYS..)

2.) They yell, "HOLY F***, OMG, OMG, OMG, OMG, HOLY S***, OMG OMG WOW, WOW, SHINY.. WOW OMG.

Does anybody run into a shiny and act normal? I get excited but I never yell lol.
