Balance

by Sage

My team I used vs. Rob in Snake (also has shown up in Majors from various people using it), a very consistent Balance team and probably the most accessible one for newer players I've made in awhile. It was mostly built around unlocking Jellicent's potential as an answer to slower fat teams and a Status spreader. Mega Aggron and Florges form a classic Steel + Fairy defensive core that give hazards and protect the team from status, while keeping the rest of the team healthy with Wish. Hydreigon was chosen as removal option to give the team less passivity as well as a good Ground-type check. Fightinium-Z is crucial here for landing some KOes on annoying pokemon like Empoleon, Cobalion, and a weakened Blissey. Nihilego and Krookodile rounded the team out with some speed control and more hazards, also filling out remaining defeninve check marks I hadn't covered yet. Krookodile is the obligatory Pursuit user that really helps builds like these not lose to weakened sweepers, and also is the Electric immunity + Knock Off user + all the other compression Scarf Krook provides. Nihilego has Toxic Spikes which really pressures slower teams well, as well as being my main answer to Flying-types in Moltres and Togekiss.
