Team Building Guide

So today,I decided to do something different.Instead of your daily review of a Pokemon,I will write about team building.Every person who builds a team think different.I have my own ideas and strategies that I'll try to explain the best I can.From the article that follows you will be able to tell that my whole team is build around the two walls that I decide to use.If there's something you don't agree with or need any help with general team-building,tips and ideas send me an e-mail or leave a comment.

Lead
In our days strong and fast anti-lead Pokemon like Ambipom,Mienshao,Zoroark,Inferape,etc.. are very common.So most of the times,I go with bulky Pokemon with access to Stealth Rock,like Swampert,Skarmory,Ferrothorn,Bronzong.That enables me to take hits with ease,set up my entry hazards and then either switch to bring a right counter to the opponent's Pokemon or stay in with my lead and do what it can do(e.g.Set up Reflect and Light Screen with Bronzong,shuffle the opponent's team with Roar Swampert,etc.).Many people don't like the idea of a bulky-wall-lead,because they are used to think that leads always need to go down early in the match.This isn't neccessary.If you see that your lead can't handle a certain Pokemon just switch it out.Keep in mind though,that this kind of lead Pokemon are walled very easily from fast taunting Pokemon.

Position 2-3
After I find my lead,I try to find my defenses.I look for a physical and a special wall.As I mentioned earlier,my team is built around these two walls.So,I make sure I find exactly what I need and make it just how I want it.Firstly the physical wall.Pokemon like Steelix,Skarmory,Slowbro,etc are great for this spot just because of their decent physical defense.Also,I am trying to use the one with more resistances/immunities,so it can be more surive-able.After this,I find with exactly the same way my special wall.Pokemon like Blissey,Tentacruel,Jellicent work great on that spot.After I finish the whole team,I test it,so I can see if the walls work.If they don't,I replace them,trying to find the combination of the two that works better for me.

Position 4-5-6
After I finish with my defense,I work on my offense.My way of thinking is simple.One strong physical attacker with Choice Band/Scarf or Life Orb(like a physical Victini).One special attacker again with either a Choice item or Life Orb(like a special hydreigon).And a set up Pokemon,either physical or special(like Terrakion with Swords dance).After I find the right offensive Pokemon the team is ready.

Team Building is not difficult.You just need a good method,everyone got one and a lot of practice with this made team.Of course,if you look around the internet you'll find many ready-to-use teams,but using one of them just ruins the fun.As you probably noticed I didn't mention anyting about weather teams.That's because firstly,I find weather teams very unoriginal and easy to destroy and secondly,because it takes no skill at all to use one.Anyway,this was very short and simple but I hope that you liked and I inspired you a bit.

Have a nice day.
