Building a tean around Rampardos

Just something i thought off, i was really bored.



The Lead
Ninjask
@Focus Sash
Jolly|Speed Boost
248 HP / 238 Atk / 24 Spe
~protect
~baton pass
~substitute
~x-scissors
---
You should pretty much know why he's leading.


Physical Wall
Gliscor
@Leftovers
Impish|Sand veil
252 HP / 252 Def/ 6 Attack
~Roost
~Stealth Rock
~Earthquake
~Ice fang
---
A nice defensive wall. Can wall out Scizor who can harm the team's star & hit it back with earthquake real hard.Roost is for recovery after taking massive hits & switches when expecting a Thunderbolts on Gyarados.


Special Sweeper
Heatran
@Choice scarf
Modest|Flash Fire
6 HP /252 SpA /252 Spe
~Fire Blast
~Earth Power
~Hidden Power(grass)
~Dragon Pulse
---
Good special sweeper.With choice scarf equipped fire blast can be deadly even Blissey will fear it after Hetran gets a flash fire boost with stealth rock in play a possible 2HKO. Switch in to fire attacks or pokemons and counter with earthpower and Hidden Power grass will 2HKO most of the bulky waters.


Special Sweeper # 2
Porygon-z
@Silk Scarf
Modest|Adaptability
252 Sp.Atk / 252 Spe/ 6 Def
~Thunderbolt
~Ice Beam
~Dark Pulse
~Tri Attack
---
Now equipped with silk scarf and running adaptability will make Tri-Attack an excellent choice and take out almost everything not named Blissey. Thunderbolt is to hit the likes of gyarados and other water pokes/ Dark Pulse can 0HKO any ghost except dusknoir and spiritomb.


Physical Sweeper
Gyarados *Shiny*
@Leftovers
Jolly|Intimidate
Atk 252/ 252 Spe/ 4 Hp
~dragon dance
~waterfall
~earthquake
~ice fang
---
Late game sweeper. After a drangon dance can take out both jolly Tyranitar & Weavile. Stone Edge for opposing gyarados and zapdos and ice fang can for type coverage such a grass,dragon etc.


The Team's Star
Rampardos *Shiny*
@Liechi berry
Jolly|Mold Breaker
Atk 252 / Spe 252 / 6 Hp
~Stone Edge
~Brick Break
~Zen Headbutt
~Natural gift
---
Here he is, The star of the show a pure beast.Why Liechi berry? Because it gives a 80 BP Grass attack. The idea is to get as many speed boost as possible from ninjask and even substitute if possible and sweep as long as it can.Jolly nature is ran instead of Adamant because its attack is still beastly.

i don't know alot about teams, but it looks really nice. Once again, I know nothing about this, but shouldn't you have another baton pass, in case ninjask dies? Maybe another to one of your walls if your not ready for rampardos? well anyways, im sure im wrong, but yeah... Jack

I don't think it's a very good idea to build a team around Rampardos. The idea seems to be good and would probably work i just think that Rampardos is not a good pokemon to build a team around. Also what if the baton pass fails? .. What if the team your against has a Choice Scarfed Pokemon which could outspeed your Rampardos.?...
Still though that's just my opinion.. prove me wrong if you like

i would suggest the subsalac set for ramp which is:
Jolly
4 HP / 252 Atk / 252 Spe
Salac Berry
~ Stone Edge
~ Earthquake
~ Substitute
~ Swords Dance
because if you dont pull of the batton pass ramp still has the chance for the speed boost,
because after the boost from the berry ramp will have 354 speed which out speeds pokemon with 110 base speed (if they are not scarfed) , plus if you actually pull off the batton pass he will become alot faster also, so you kinda win both ways, hope this helps =P

First off, why do you have defensive EVs on a poke holding Sash? Give it attacks EVs so it can do something with X Scizor or whatever.
Gliscor is solid.

Not really. It fears more Explosion. And Modest but not max Speed? Huh? Scarf it and use max speed.
Also, I don't think Ramparados is a good thing for your team, Scizor says Hi to it. After a DD Gyarados can be a problem to take out.
