Basically, just post your team up and other jsp members will help you make it better and tell you how good it is. It is also appreciated that you post your Pokemon in some sort of format like this:

Pokemon @ Item
EVs:
Nature:
Ability:
- move
- move
- move
- move

It also wouldn't hurt to post a little bit about your team, your team building process, and make it look a little nice.

Happy rating!

I suppose I'll start!

This team is based around the move 'Explosion' (and selfdestruct.) 5 Pokemon on this team have Explosion, and one has a STAB Selfdestruct. It is a very offensive-minded team, and every pokemon is able to Explode and take out a potential threat. There are no stat-up moves on my team, so every one of my pokemon switched in is an immediate threat. Weezing also has Haze to try and prevent them from stat-upping / force switches to rack up some SR damage. The pokemon synergy/type coverage/resistances etc. are the best I could get them, I don't have very much freedom since every Pokemon has to have Explosion or Selfdestruct.

What does STAB selfdestruct mean?

STAB stands for Same Type Attack Bonus. When you have an attack that is the same type as the Pokemon's type, the attack is 50% stronger.

Seriously? does STAB work on every pokemon and every move?
or is it just some moves that can be STAB'd?


Like for example if my Charizard uses flamethrower
does that mean it's 50% more dmg?

Well, the attack's power is 50% more damage. So your Flamethrower, which is normally 95 power, would be 95 x 1.5 = 142.5. So, yes.

It works if the type of move is the same as the type of the Pokemon. And it also has to be an attack move (obviously)

yeah
damn
that's great lol!


btw Snorlax can't learn selfdestruct

Yeah, it is.

Also, he can. He learns Selfdestruct when you purify him in Pokemon XD.

ahh
I see, I just looked through Serebii that's why I thought he can't learn it

Yeah, that's the only way he could learn it. xD
