There's something missing...

[ragnaar]

Basically, I like this team, but I'm finding it pulling up a little short sometimes.

Victreebel (Knivez)
Swords Dance, Sleep Powder, Razor Leaf, Body Slam
~ pretty simple setup and sweep, faster than eggy lead though my powder seems to miss at levels that can only be classed as depressing.

Tauros (Primal)
Hyper Beam, Blizzard, Earthquake, Body Slam
~ uhh, it's Tauros, whats new here?

Alakazam (Momento Mori)
Psychic, Recover, Substitute, Thunder Wave
~ Probably changing sub to reflect soon, getting really sick of how it doesn't block the "side effect" type paralysis from body slams etc in RBY which basically is why I used it in GSC.

Gengar (Redeye)
Mega Drain, Thunderbolt, Psychic, m00b.
~ Victreebel gets a sleep off 90% of the time, I also hate Hypnosis hit rate so I tend to not use it unless I know a switch is coming meaning I found it to have limited use.

Slowbro (Slowbie)
Thunder Wave, Amnesia, Surf, Rest
~ Yeah.. it's slowbro.

Golem (Kidney Stone)
Earthquake, Substitute, Hyper Beam, Explosion
~ strongly considering body slam over sub, but thats about it.


Team looks ok to me, but I'm finding some issues with it - most suggestions would be helpful.

"Victreebel (Knivez)

Yeah that does suck, especially considering Victreebel really can't afford a miss.

Tauros (Primal)
Hyper Beam, Blizzard, Earthquake, Body Slam
~ uhh, it's Tauros, whats new here?

Needs more Fire Blast/Thunder/Blizzard.

Alakazam (Momento Mori)
Psychic, Recover, Substitute, Thunder Wave
"~ Probably changing sub to reflect soon, getting really sick of how it doesn't block the "side effect" type paralysis from body slams etc in RBY which basically is why I used it in GSC."

Yeah, Sub is a bastard in RSE too. I would definitely swap it for Reflect/S-Toss/Kinesis.

Gengar (Redeye)
Mega Drain, Thunderbolt, Psychic, m00b.
"~ Victreebel gets a sleep off 90% of the time, I also hate Hypnosis hit rate so I tend to not use it unless I know a switch is coming meaning I found it to have limited use."

I feel a second sleeper is almost necessary in competitive standard play, I would still consider putting Hypnosis on over Mega Drain, or Psychic if your really afraid of Golem/Rhydon.

Slowbro (Slowbie)
Thunder Wave, Amnesia, Surf, Rest
~ Yeah.. it's slowbro.

Yah.

Golem (Kidney Stone)
Earthquake, Substitute, Hyper Beam, Explosion
~ strongly considering body slam over sub, but thats about it.

Yeah, Body Slam can do things like para switch in Exeggutors and Starmies.

Overall the team lacks a second sleeper, you can fix that with Gengar. Victreebel can definitely be replaced here for something like Exeggutor. Snorlax over Golem can work too.
