Pokemon dreamteam challenge

Then I will lead with Marowak (sorry, it's just good business). I'm going to assume that you will use earthquake, since substitue will just leave you with less health, and leave you more vulnerable to Marowak's attacks, and you have nothing else to affect him. Marowak, with maxed def. takes the hit with relatively low damage, responding with an earthquake of his own, potentially one-shoting Electivire. You then send out Dragonite, using the original pseudo-legendary to take Marowak out for the count with Outrage. I send Lapras out. You either continue with Outrage, or get confused, but I'll assume it hits, but it takes only 1/4 of Lapras's HP. Lapras then one-shots Dragonite with Ice Beam. You then send Gengar to put Lapras to sleep, use Nightmare, and then finish it with dreameater. I send out Umbreon, and use faint attack, and if that doesn't one-shot Gengar, I will use Psychic to end it, since you dare not use hypnosis if we include special abilities in this (because Umbreon has Synchronize). You then send out Volcarona to use bug buzz, taking out Umbreon. So I send in Electabuzz and use thunderwave to slow Volcarona down, and then I will use thunder to take care of it. Last, you send out Registeel, who takes a Cross Chop, losing at least half his health. He earthquakes Electabuzz, taking out the rest of his HP. I send out Typhlosion, who uses flamethrower to take the rest of registeel's health.

It would be a tough battle, but I think, ultimately, I'd win out.

1/4 of Lapras's HP? You serious? I forgot to mention Dragonite has choice Band, increasing his attack to 564, plus outrage is a powerful stab attack, it's base damage being 120. Thunder wouldn't take out Volcarona, and if I get even 1 quiver dance, fiery dance is an insta kill.

You're whole "strategy" requires xsupreme to play like an idiot.

Its also extremely unfair that you get to pick which pokemon you send out first based on which one he does, giving you an immediate advantage. You asked him which pokemon he'd start with then picked the one that resists all its attacks and is capable of one-shotting it. How is that not complete bullshit?

Furthermore, if you sent out Marowak against my Electivire the first thing I'd do would be to switch to Gengar and roflstomp you.

Fine, one of you analyze my team with one of yours and you do so in a way that does any better. Also, I lead with Marowak more than anybody in my team, other than Typhlosion. So if you'd rather have me start each battle with Typhlosion (then say I'm an idiot for doing so because I'd lose my strongest early), then I will do it, and I'm still likely to win.

Also, Nephthys, two can play at the "switch out then roflstomp" game. So you switch to Gengar, I switch to Umbreon, and then I see how hard you think you can roflstomp me, because you won't.

If your marowak and Typhlosion start my blastoise could take them out. Your lapras would them come out and beat my blastoie but not easily then I would send out Aerodactyl who has max attack and use stone edge. Your electabuzz would probably lose if I hit it with Earthquake or stone edge. your Umbreon would finish my Aerodactyl but I would send out my Gengar put it to sleep and hit it with Dream eater and shadow ball. Your alakazam could probably beat my Gengar but not easily and i doubt he be able to beat my Poliwrath, Sandslash, and Dragonite

^ yeah both of our teams have a very good chance of beating j's, if we were to do an actual battle

I'd never send Lapras out against Blastoise, but I may not need more than Typhlosion to take him out (he has survived a Hydro Pump augmented by Rain Dance from a level 100 Blastoise before, only to Thunderpunch him to win a link match). Even if you beat Typhlosion, Electabuzz goes out next, where he would take the rest of Blastoise's HP with 2 thunderbolts maximum. Next, with Aerodactyl, Electabuzz could take 2/3 of his HP with Thunder or 1/2 with Thunderbolt before taking an Earthquake. This would likely beat Electabuzz, but without a STAB, it's not certain. This is where Marowak comes in, he takes an Ice Fang (not sure how strong this is, info please) taking a lot of damage (not as much as a STABed attack would do) but his maxed Defense keeps him alive. He uses a Rock Slide to take the rest of Dactyl's HP. Next you send out Gengar. You will attempt a Hypnosis, if (a) it hits, then Marowak is done for, but (b) should it miss, Marowak will use Rock Slide again. I'll go with option (a). So I send out Umbreon, as you predicted. The only problem with your prediction in this portion is that you forget that Umbreon has Synchronize (if you don't mind me giving a Crystal pokemon his later generation abilities) so if you put him to sleep, Gengar goes with him. You, being a smart trainer, go for shadow ball, which is not very effective. I respond with a Faint Attack, at least halving your HP. You try with Shadow Ball again, but it doesn't do much, Umbreon then finishes it with another Faint Attack. You send out Poliwrath, who has the type advantage. Umbreon uses Psychic to cause as much damage as possible before you pummel Umbreon with Payback. I send out Alakazam to use his Psychic, much more powerful than Umbreon's which finishes Poliwrath off. Next you send out Sandslash, who plays on Alakazam's lack of physical defense to win, but loses at least half his health. Lapras comes out here. He hits Sandslash with a Surf, takin the rest of his HP. You use your Dragonite now, bit he has a severe type-disadvantage. He gets one Outrage off before getting hit with an Ice Beam. This is likely to one-shot Dragonite, but, for the sake of a battle, it leaves him with barely any health. Dragonite uses another Outrage, which takes Lapras to half his health, but Lapras ends it with an Ice Beam.

I've said before, they would be really tough battles if they were to actually happen. Only problem is the Generation differences. I give those who have full teams of level 100s on this thread a lot of credit, because it is hard AF to raise even one Pokemon to level 100, let alone 6 or more.

If it was possible, I'd gladly battle both of you, it would be a great match up.

Also, not sure what's up with lapras wank. Dragonite outrage only takes away 1/4 of Lapras's hp? Sounds like a bit of bs imo.

My Lapras's HP is over 400, and Both his Special Defense and Defense are damn near maxed out, he could take an Outrage, even from a level 100 Dragonite with about 1/4 of his HP lost.

not a choice-banded dragonite with max attack and stab outrage (which has a base power of 120).

My magikarp beat a lv 100 Arceus.

I've never been against anything with a choice-band with this team, since this is from Crystal. I fought a guy's Dragonite with max Special Attack, with a massive Attack as well. Lapras took an Outrage from that, and survived. Again, not choice banded.

Well, choice band makes my Dragonite's base attack go up to 564 👆

Well F**k, that thing is more powerful than a Mewtwo with maxed out Special Attack.

Imagine Mewtwo with a choice item.

But yeah the weakness with choice items is that you can only use one of your 4 moves.
