[CLOSED] The Elemental Elites (continues in the new thread)

[Mr. Fox]

lol, it's not the same machamp as on the regular server. Don't expect the same old sets from me...

[Roloc]

Cant wait to have Pinsir and armaldo alternating as my leads.

Pinsir landing EQs on levitating Pokemon. Will also be nice to have some stacks to attack and see people switch in a pokemon with unaware XD.  (oh noes how did your Pinsir hit my Woobat so hard :O) lmao
Armaldo hitting Fire and Flying types with stab rock.
ahh how nice it will be <3

[Desbear]

I can't wait to have a epic golurk on my team.

[Mr. Fox]

I can't wait to see how much more fight gets nerfed . Nah, I just want my Medicham.

Ponge my username is changed so will you please change it in the member list.thanks.

Ponge my username is changed so will you please change it in the member list.thanks.

I changed it the day after you mentioned it, but this is the first time I've got the time to properly report it (extremely busy).

Anyway, about my hypothetical poison team, I've got too many ( options. Help, anyone?

This is what I've got so far:
Special wall: Tentacruel
Physical Tank: Venusaur
Psychic counter: Drapion
Special attacker or scarfer: Gengar (countering Psychics is his main role besides general sweeping).
Lead/stallbreaker/fighting counter: Crobat
Physical sweeper (maybe bander): Scolipede
Offensive special LO/Sheer force abuse: Nidoking (boltbeam, fireblast and earth power do a poopload of damage)
Physical defensive special LO/Sheer force abuse: Nidoqueen

Drapion is a must on my team, so I will obviously have him. Synergy in my team is realy important, like I did with my fighting team. Any help/comments/alternatives are appreciated.

[Desbear]

Muk, and weezing are good walls too.

[Chad29]

New Muk gets water absorb, so it's a good anti water wall for poison types. Of course toxicroak has dry skin, but he's not a defensive pokeon.

Well I had a bit of a hiatus. Not sure if I'll get active again. Hopefully th gae will come out soon.

Congrats to Xhizor.

Welcome to EE, TheOmega1. Another steel type trainer
I'm sure the others will love to battle with you. You should join us on the balance server sometime.

This is what I've got so far:

Physical sweeper (maybe bander): Scolipede

Scolipede does okay with a choice band and with quick feet he is able to soak paralysis and hit back hard and superfast...BUT with a band you almost always need to go with tented lens just cause you wont be able to switch  attacks. That way if they switch into something that resists your..lets say twineedle it will still no normal damage unless it was a 4x resist. I just prefer the sword dance build with it...seemed to work out better more often then being banded or scarfed.

Welcome to the EE , TheOmega1. I putted your name on the front page.

Yeah, I was thinking about a scolipede that worked pretty well in testing for me. I believe it was a bander with Tinted Lens who killed most opponents with it's STAB Megahorn, or a move that wos more appropriate on some pokémon (4x resists etc). Maybe I'll use it, but probably not because of synergy issues. But then there is still the nido to decide and making my movesets. I might even keep my original type. We'll see how things will work out.

Megahorn is nice, but STAB Twin Needle is great too.  Since I can break subs, which is always nice.  Stops most prankster users (If they go for sub first).

[Roloc]

also breaks sashes.

[Chad29]

I received a message about people thiinking I'm hateful or otherwise unpleasant towards them. I'm sorry if it seems that way, as I don't mean to come off like that. If anyone has any problems with me, they're free to leave a PM. I'm not as active as I probably should be, but I check the board now and again.

I'll also be stepping down as leader since a leader should probably be more active than I've been. I don't plan to leave, and if this game ever gets finished, I'll be happy to contribute as a member of the guild.

[Roloc]

I think I speak for everyone when I say that I appreciate you doing that Chad.


Now I would like some ideas from some guild members. Any ideas on another build for butterfree?
This is the build I always use. Only a few things here and there change.
Butterfree (F) @ Focus Sash
Trait: Compoundeyes
EVs: 4 HP / 252 SAtk / 252 Spd
Modest Nature (+SAtk, -Atk)
- Quiver Dance
- Sleep Powder
- Hurricane
- Bug Buzz

I usually save this poke for last cause of the sash and sleep power. But I use it so much that I have grown bored of it. I want to see if there are any other builds. I have tried some others and they have all failed in comparison to this one.
