Pokemon dreamteam challenge

So, that is completely cheap in my opinion (the Mewtwo situation). I still think that I can pull this off, but Lapras will lose quite a bit more health than I thought at first, but it now seems more likely that I will lose to Dragonite unless I one-shot him with Ice Beam.

You won't if he is packing multiscale.

And while your team can win, it generally won't.

Yeah, pokemon has evolved vastly since crystal with the abilities/items and such

But he isn't (or he at least didn't say he is), so there is still a chance for me to succeed, again it would be a close match.

I realize that, I'm just really unfamiliar with those changes, and I am so far behind, I'd really rather not learn it anymore than I have to now.

Except my team doesn't just revolve around Dragonite (which could almost sweep your entire team barring Lapras), it has other hard-hitters such as Volcarona with quiver dance.

Not really, His team simply outclasses yours. You could win, but it's not likely to happen if he plays smart.

Okay, I'll say that his team is solid, but it doesn't "outclass" mine. My team is actually a lot better than what you give me credit for. It was in crystal, which I agree, has been left in the pokemon Stone Ages. Also, I know how to play smart, not too many people can beat me, be it in Fire Red, Emerald, Crystal, Yellow, or any other version. In all honesty, in a link battle, I've never actually lost once. I have seen a lot of powerful teams, pushing me to the limit, but I still won every time. So I don't know of any team that really outclasses my teams.

Palkia
Dialga
groudon
Mewtwo
Arceus
Zekrom

I meant non-legendary. Anybody can win with legendaries because of their god-like stats and often signature attacks.

It takes true skill to win without legendaries.

1. No. Not when your opponent is utilizing legendaries as well along with utilizing an efficient strategy to match.

Name one legendary in my team.

I allowed Registeel because he isn't as overpowered as Rayquaza, Kyogre, Palkia, Dialga, or most other legendaries. Unless their use is agreed upon beforehand they are really for those who don't know how to win without having something win just because they have stats at an unbeatable level.

I was simply countering when you said "it takes no skill to win with legendaries."

Why is this thread still going? Your dreamteam isn't bad man, but it's not great by any means. I think you've seen a number of challenges that could easily defeat you.

MAGIKARP!

^He's just too overpowered to even consider in any team. We've all seen that meme, so I don't even have to go into those details.

A team I used the other day.

Azelf
Focus Sash, Adamant, Max Speed and SpA
Stealth Rock
Taunt
Explosion
U-Turn

Smeargle (Own Tempo)
Focus Sash, Timid, Max Speed and HP
Shell Smash
Spore
Baton Pass
Destiny Bond

Dragonite (Multiscale)
Life Orb , Adamant, Max Attack and Speed
Dragon Claw
Earthquake
Fire Punch
Superpower

To lazy to post the other three....

But anyway, this is a really simple set, albeit fairly easy to counter.

Azelf is my lead. If against another entry hazard user I taunt, otherwise I lay stealth rocks. With focus Sash I am pretty much guaranteed to survive and then explode hopefully taking out the other lead or at least critically injuring it.

Then I said out Smeargle. The other Pokemon attacks but Smeargle survives due to focus sash I then shell smash (If it's not a typical priority user otherwise I spore). With the speed boost I go first then Spore. Then I baton pass to Dragonite who proceeds to almost always perform a flawless sweep.

Looking at your team you have no entry hazards or ways to counter my Smeargle. In other words, I can easily pull of the shell smash/baton pass combo and nothing you can do can prevent it. Dragonite then outspeeds your entire team and can OHKO everything.
