FAKE OUT

... This is a funny idea.

A FAKE OUT TEAM. Yes. A team of Pokemon that all know Fake Out. Coincidentally, there happens to be 6 Pokemon that could fair pretty well with it from my stand point.

Persian
Ambipom
Hitmontop

Those are the three most obvious. Both Persian and Ambipom not only have Technician, but also get STAB bonuses. Hitmontop just gets Technician. The next three aren't QUITE as obvious...

Kangaskhan
Hariyama
Medicham

Sounds ridiculous, right? Well, think about it. Kangaskhan gets Scrappy, so it can Fake Out Ghosts. Hariyama has Guts, so why not use Fake Out as a free turn to set up that Burn with Flame Orb? And Medicham has a max possible 480 Atk if it happened to be Adamant with max IVs and EVs, considering Pure Power.

These in mind...

Persian @Choice Scarf
-Fake Out
-Switcheroo
-Torment
-U-Turn/Fury Swipes

Technician, Adamant
252 Atk, 252 Spd, 6 HP
Can force a struggle with Switcheroo and Torment. :3

Ambipom @Choice Band/Life Orb
-Fake Out
-Payback (Stronger than Shadow Claw with Technician)
-U-turn/Taunt (Taunt pwns)
-Double Hit/Snatch/T-Wave (Snatch pwns)

Technician, Adamant/Jolly
252 Atk, 252 Spd, 6 HP

Hitmontop @Leftovers
-Fake Out
-Bulk Up
-Triple Kick
-Rapid Spin (Probably you'd be doing a lot of switching... Fear Stealth Rock, Spikes, and Toxic Spikes.)

Technician, Adamant/Impish
252 HP, 80 Atk, 178 Def

Kangaskhan @Life Orb
-Fake Out
-Earthquake
-Double-Edge (WHY THE FUCK NOT?!)
-Outrage/Avalanche

Scrappy, Adamant/Jolly
252 Atk, 252 Spd, 6 HP

Hariyama @Flame Orb (w00tw00t!)
-Fake Out
-Bullet Punch (Priority wins)
-Fling (BURN BABY BURN)
-Revenge/Cross Chop

Guts, Adamant
252 HP, 252 Atk, 6 Def

Medicham @Life Orb
-Fake Out
-Energy Ball
-Psychic
-Calm Mind

Pure Power, Lonely/Naughty/Hasty/Naive
252 Atk, 252 Spd, 6 Spd (I know I fail at mixed sweepers x_x)

SO HERE'S A ROUGH DRAFT OFF THE TOP OF MY HEAD. It makes me lawl.

Of course, this isn't a SERIOUS team, but I think it'd be entertaining to use every once in a while. Annoyance is certainly the nature of this team... It's very physical heavy, of course, but like I said, this isn't a serious endeavor. However, I'd say that Hariyama is perfectly worth looking into.

Others that didn't make the final cut but deserve recognition include Blastoise, Hitmonlee, Hitmonchan, Infernape, Toxicroak, and Weavile.

Um, giving Medicham only 1 attacking move when your maxing his attack to 480 seems kinda silly to me.

Also, double hit for taking out sub.

Agreed.

I think you should kill calm mind, and give him...JUMP KICK!

Or mabye poisne jab, it's powerful, and can poisen your enemy.

Mixed Sweepers tend to phail unless they're Pokemon that are good at it, like Lucario, Mewtwo, or Infernape.

Medicham = uber phail at mixing!

Ya, my Lucarico can sweep for along time...as long as a flametworer doesn't kill it first. XD

I have one i mixxed, but i didn't ev anything, so it just phails.

I have a counter for this team =P

Pokemon that all know the move Protect/Detect xD

Or a Lucario with Steadfast.

Or Crobat with Inner Focus.

Or a Gallade with Steadfast.

Although it wouldn't work quite as well.

EDIT: Actually, 5/6 of your team is weak to Gallade xD

XD Yeah, Gallade would rape this team since he can't be flinched and can score super-effective hits on everyone (Aerial Ace or Shadow Sneak for Medicham).

ive never seen a Gallade with Either of those attacks on it though...

but it would still rape than Medicham

KO+America+KO wrote:ive never seen a Gallade with Either of those attacks on it though...

Yeah, because those moves aren't very good for type coverage...he already has Close Combat, Leaf Blade, Night Slash and Psycho Cut, if he was given AAce or Shadow Sneak then you would completely ruin the coverage.

I've made my own move set, and it had AA instead of psycho cut...and night slash....and leaf blade....AND close combat.

It was really fucked up.

But this team would work,....i think.

When your done, i'd like to battle it.

I've seen CB Gallade use Shadow Sneak but maybe I just battle weird people XD.
