Strategy and Alikes.

Well we all know this Metagame is kind of made of Stalling and Bulky pokemons..
Things like Gliscor and Reuniclus and such , etc. etc. etc.
Well in this Topic I would like to hear Strategy's posted and Movesets for Trolling,Stalling and Forcing Rage Quits(thoserock)
Ill start with a Deoxys-D and Skarmory Combination.



Deoxys-D @ Red Card
Trait: Pressure
EVs: 236 HP / 20 Def / 252 SDef
Careful Nature (+SDef, -SAtk)
- Stealth Rock
- Spikes
- Recover
- Recycle



Skarmory (M) @ Leftovers
Trait: Sturdy
EVs: 252 HP / 252 Def / 4 SDef
Impish Nature (+Def, -SAtk)
- Spikes/Taunt
- Whirlwind
- Brave Bird/Drill Peck
- Roost

Well the sets arent that special, Everyone knows how to Phaze with Skarmory.
The Deoxys-D set might need some effort to get used to, but after a little while... you get a lot of free ranking points.
Those two pokemon have one weak point, Taunt. Make sure to have a few fast Taunters yourself!
A pokemon with Safegaurd/Healbell/Aromatherapy is very handy in here as well.

A very handy pokemon to put in here could be, Espeon.
Havin both Wish, Dual screens and his best card: Magic Bounce.
Here is a set I made.



Espeon (M) @ Focus Sash/Light Clay/ Leftovers
Trait: Magic Bounce
EVs: 252 HP / 4 SAtk / 252 Spd
Timid Nature (+Spd, -Atk)
- Wish
- Reflect
- Light Screen
- Psyshock/Psychic

It is a real shame it cant have Heal bell and Magic Bounce at the same time(epic Cleric)
Well a Cleric is needed and a Taunter, well everyone can make a Taunter but a Cleric is something diffrend.
Well since we have Skarmory here, why don't we make a Terrifying combination called : SkarmBliss.
Well Blissy has those Epic high HP and Spdefence( of course you can use Chansey instead but you will lose the Leftovers)
Here is the Blissey/Chansey.



Blissey (F) @ Leftovers/Eviolite(only when using Chansey)
Trait: Natural Cure
EVs: 252 HP / 252 Def / 4 SDef
Bold Nature (+Def, -Atk)
- Aromatherapy
- Thunder Wave/ Toxic
- Flamethrower/SeismicToss/Ice beam
- Softboiled/Wish

Well Blissey/Chansey also have Heal Bell, but Aromatherapy is preffered for the fact that Soundproof can wall it(If anyone ever used Soundproof...)

Well this team becomes perfect with a Fast taunter and some Fast attackers.
I myself would probably use a Prankster for the Taunt, and some kind of Mixed sweeper.
That of course is all up to your tactic.

Now that I am done acting all cool and stuff about my team.
Please post some strategy and tell me if you find any flaws:)
Love Joey

doesnt Chansey look uber cute doing a dance<3

This seems very good I'm just unsure about Deoxys, I'd suggest giving him the Mental Herb to prevent a one-time taunting.

The whole purpose of Deoxys is to Recycle the red card to get damage without using a attack.
Stepping into 3 spikes layer and SR is annoying, and when it happends when you attack Deoxys who can Recover right after it, you will get kinda pissed off.
White Herb + Recycle can work to tough.

Ol' times, facing THAT Deo-D. Huge ragequit hurrdurr.
