The Jewel of the Crown


Created by LanceWest1

This is a fairly new team that i hope to get all the right pokemon for in pokemon platinum
Leafy the Torterra
Holding Big Root
Ability: Overgrow
Moves: Nature: Sassy

The leader he is very tough to take down. He can deal with the most unlikliest of situations. His leaf storm can defeat the toughest of foes, earthquake deals with fire types, crunch on annoying psychic and ghost types that usally are quite hard to beat, ie my brothers lv 100 espeon which is very quick so i get a pokemon to distract him, usally my infernape and then go in for the kill.

Zane the Empoleon
Holding Leftovers
Ability: Torrent
Moves: Nature: Hasty

The legend of Zane continues on after i lost my pokemon diamond. Surf is so i can use the HM and then it does quite a lot of damage, plus it has 15 pp. Flash cannon is useful for types weak to steel. Blizzard is usefull against flying, grass, bug types. While drill peck takes down fighting types.

Aster the Infernape
Holding Life Orb
Ability: Blaze
Moves: Nature: Naive

I mainly use aster for the battle tower as he is built for short battles. close combat is for usally steel types is Jesse is knocked out. If i do have to use Aster in a long battle then usally he a distraction so i cna get prepared for a majorly powerful attack

Ghost.D the Giratina
Holding Griseous Orb
Ability: Levitate
Moves: Nature: Lonely

He is a powerhouse, i do not often use him, apart from on psychic types especally my brothers espeon as it has no attack that works on ghost types so then he has to call out someone else who gets smashed as giratina is one of my strongest pokemon i own.

Voltage the Electivire
Holding Shell Bell
Ability: Motor Drive
Moves: Nature: Bold

He is mainly a quick battler like aster. Voltage is usally helping zane take down any pokemon weak to steel by crushing them with a powerfull iron tail. Giga impact is not used very often as it needs to rechage so usally it is a battle finisher

Sand Shark the Garchomp
Holding Amulet Coin
Ability: Sand Veil
Moves: Nature: Serious

A main tank as he can blow through opponents very quickly and will destroy just about anyone who gets in his way, he has fire fang to melt any icy foe who dare to oppose him

Why would you name your Garchomp Rainbow? Aside from that there's nothi- Is he holding Amulet coin? During Battle tower have him hold a Yache berry.

Do the plates really help Pokemon moves that much? *shrugs* I would give Torterra a White Herb if you want to use Leaf Storm more than once.

I've got Platinum, and I've used ALL of these PKMN in it, so I should be trusted when it comes to my suggestions.

1) Torterra is a PHYSICAL beast, not a Mixed one. Get Wood Hammer instead of Leaf Storm and Superpower instead of Giga Drain. Also, get Adamant nature.

2) Empoleon is the only SPECIAList out of the 3 Sinnoh Starters. Surf, Flash Cannon, Ice Beam, Signal Beam, Modest nature.

3)Infernape is 3/5ths AWESOME. Only bad stuff here is Punishment and nature. Earthquake and Adamant would do nicely here.

4) Giratina should be all Physical, so get the more powerful Earthquake over Earth Power, Outrage over Slash and Stone Edge over Shadow Ball. Also, Adamant nature.

5) Electivire is another Physical attacker. Drop Thunder, Iron Tail, Giga Impact and Bold nature. Get Thunderpunch, Fire Punch, Earthquake and Adamant nature.

6) As for Garchomp, Adamant nature with Outrage, Earthquake, Crunch and Rock Slide is the way to go.

Alternatively, for the Physical dudes, Impish (+Defence -Sp.Attack), Jolly (+ Speed - Sp.Attack) or Careful (+ Sp. Defence - Sp. Attack) could also work.

For the few Specialists, ie Empoleon, Bold (+ Defence -Attack), Timid (+ Speed - Attack) or Calm (+Sp. Defence -Attack) could work out.

I would have to disagree with you PM99999. I would say get Stone Edge over giga drain and wood hammer over leaf storm. Not only does Stone Edge not lower your attack, it hits most things for neutral and gets x2 on flying types. Empoleon should get Grass Knot over signal beam but otherwise PM99999's comment should work the rest of it up. Infernape should probably get Thunder punch over Punishment. Girantina should NOT be physical, go for a special set of Shadow Ball, Aura Sphere, Calm mind then a filler move such as Earth Power. The standard Electrivire set should be used here. Cross Chop, Thunder Punch, Ice Punch, Earthquake. Garchomp should be Swords Dance, Earthquake, Outrage and Fire Fang or Rock Slide.

Otherwise its decent.
