An "Examplary" RMT (Sort-of tribute to Jude's help)

For the good of the RMT section on Shaywin, I've made this RMT so you can learn to make a RMT with a proper and good-looking format. Makes notes that descriptions, pictures and Ev's all make the RMT easy to read and quick to rate.

Take a Gander...

There you go Shaywin, you're first Jude RMT (expect a lot more) =P.

good team sumeet except u wud change baton pass on jolteon to signal beam. otherwise it's good

Baton Pass reveals Jirachi counters so I can take them out with Hitmonlee

Well, any lead that is faster than you and has taunt can mess up you using toxic spikes or sleep powder (azelf and aerodactyl), but they can be hit by leaf storm.

Gyrados looks ok, but if bounce is for paralysis support, that won't do much good if you've got toxic spikes up. Only threat to the flying/water combo is Empoleon.

Jolteon is a nice specs user, and using baton pass over signal beam is fine. You'll only get coverage against grass and dark, but your other pokes can handle them anyways.

Jirachi has the typical set, but gets mauled by Magnezone that pack HP fire (which most do). Flash cannon is nice if a T-tar thinks you have psychic .

I've never really used this Mence before, so I don't know the extent of his "bulkiness". Him intimidating something will probably force them into switching, which is a free dragon dance.

Hitmonlee is an excellent scarf user. Great coverage and attack are a big plus. I haven't seen him much in OU, but with his coverage and attack, he should do quite well!

So, overall, nice team. Good luck with it in future battles!

Thanks for the in depth rate now onto my reply...

On general Taunt leads I will attack because Taunt is so glaringly obvious. I might even switch to be able to get Spikes up later, like against leads like Jirachi.

Gyarados is there to take full advantage of Toxic Spikes support since it is the most stallish Gyara other than Rest Talk...which I can't stand lol.

Magnezone really does screw Jirachi over but Hitmonlee can get the suprise kill on it or I can simply work it into a corner...

Thanks for the rate

You have a lot of set up pokemon, and you could make good use of light screen and reflect which halve the damadge recieved. Jirachi can set these up and u-turn out. Cresselia is the best poke to set up the screens with massive hp defence and special defence and cress can lunar dance to fully heal a weakned poke, and lunar dance kicks in before stealth rocks so gyrados and salamnace become ready to sweep even when considered dead to stealth rocks e.g. 1hp.

I would suggest a different lead, your team forces a lot of switches and therefore stealth rocks would be benificial, you also have some stealh rock weaknesses and therefore a taunt lead can stop these, lead aerodactyl would be my suggestion and the extra electric weakness can help heal jolteon, but a fake out, taunt, counter/ night slash/ pursuit, ice punch/ shard weavile stops almost all leads getting up stealth rocks, and A lack of stealth rocks can help intimidate switching on a pokemon e.g. lucario who has anoyingly got a sword dance up. Lead electrode can stop all leads getting uo stealth rocks as he is the fastest taunter and can replace jolteon, if you like UU's, freeing up some spaces. Your team has no need to fear blissey?

magnezone will probably run away from hitmonlee if it is locked into hidden power fire, dugtrio however can trap magnezone and also he can switch in on electic attacks that threaten gyrados (and aerodactyl if you use him). I personal don't see the need for hitmonlee, is he a revenge killer? but dugtio makes a better revenge killer.

"baton pass reveals jirachi counters" Jirachi can sub up as a counter switches in, do you mean jolteon counters?

Hope I helped

I considered a Dual Screen team originally but I decided against it. Dual Screen requires me to use only physical or only special sweepers, which I'm not willing to do.

A taunt lead? Possibility worth it. I haven't seen a problem with it yet. Maybe I can add a spinner or better yet...Anti lead Starmie.

I honestly don't like Dugtrio. It's waaaay too easy to set up on.

I'll consider Anti lead Starmie, thanks for the help.

"Jirachi has the typical set, but gets mauled by Magnezone that pack HP fire "

thunderbolt does more damadge than hidden power fire becuase of stab, most people don't realise this and therefore it is an adavantage for the oponent to have hp fire, as like you, they will probably think it does more damadge and use hp fire.

hp fire = 140 (with super effective damadge)
thunder bolt = 142.5 (with stab)

That's not all that important though...lol. Does anyone sense the RMT forum is becoming a little bland? I'm willing to take some suggestions on how to fix this.

I've unstickyied this...I think you guys have got the general idea

Re-stickied as it's useful for people who don't know.
