    TEAM MEXICO

    This idea came to fruition like this:

    "Oh the Pokéscrabble tour exists"
    "I wonder if there's a way to make a hax team with MEXICO"
    "Something like Machamp/Eelektross/Xatu/Illumise/Cresselia/Omastar"
    "Actually this can be NU just make Machamp Machoke and Cress Cottonee"
    "Wait let's make it more disgusting: CHATOT"

    So yes, the idea of this team is entirely my fault. The creation of this team, however, is entirely user @Draciel.
    Let's get started!

    M is for MACHOKE
    [​IMG]
    Machoke (M) @ Eviolite
    Trait: No Guard
    EVs: 196 HP / 252 Atk / 60 Spd
    Adamant Nature (+Atk, -SAtk)
    - Dynamic Punch
    - Substitute
    - Knock Off
    - Rock Slide

    Our first hax abuser. Basically, DPunch so they get confused, then sub if you have the opportunity to. Knock Off is always useful for hitting them ghosties. Rock Slide exists so when they're para'd and confused you can try to flinch them too! Don't ask me about the 60 speed I literally just copied the spread for Machamp.

    E is for EELEKTROSS
    [​IMG]
    Eelektross (F) @ Leftovers
    Trait: Levitate
    EVs: 160 HP / 252 SAtk / 96 Spd
    Modest Nature (+SAtk, -Atk)
    - Thunder Wave
    - Thunderbolt
    - Giga Drain
    - Substitute

    Eelektross is important because the team kind of dies to Electric-types, if they're not dying to confusion anyway. Thunder Wave is for more hax, and Giga Drain is for Lanturn and Ground-types and stuff. Use sub when they're confused/para'd so you can get a free turn and end their life.

    X is for XATU
    [​IMG]
    Xatu (M) @ Leftovers
    Trait: Magic Bounce
    EVs: 248 HP / 252 Def / 8 Spd
    Bold Nature (+Def, -Atk)
    - Thunder Wave
    - Confuse Ray
    - Psychic
    - Roost

    Our first Pokémon with true Parafusion. Confuse Ray lets you beat Physical Cacturne 50% of the time, and Thunder Wave is always nice to slow down big threats that may outspeed Chatot. Psychic is just a decent move and Roost is recovery while you're waiting for them to die to confusion and it isn't happening :(

    I is for ILLUMISE
    [​IMG]
    Illumise (F) @ Leftovers
    Trait: Prankster
    EVs: 248 HP / 192 Def / 68 SDef
    Impish Nature (+Def, -SAtk)
    - Thunder Wave
    - Confuse Ray
    - U-turn
    - Encore

    Our second Pokémon with true Parafusion. Prankster Thunder Wave is great, since it lets you deal with threats harder. Confuse Ray is just standard confusion stuff seen on the rest of the team. U-Turn lets you scout for those big threats, and Encore lets you bring in Chatot to set up, and beat Combuskenpass while you're at it.

    C is for CHATOT
    [​IMG]
    Chatot (F) @ Leftovers
    Trait: Keen Eye
    EVs: 4 Def / 252 SAtk / 252 Spd
    Timid Nature (+Spd, -Atk)
    - Chatter
    - Substitute
    - Boomburst
    - Nasty Plot

    This is really a standard Chatot. Chatter to confuse them, sub until they get confused, then either Boomburst to eradicate everything or NP if you're feeling lucky enough to get a sweep. But this is Team MEXICO, of course you're going to be lucky enough. 92 base speed is poor but that's why you have three Thunder Wave users.

    O is for OMASTAR
    [​IMG]
    Omastar (M) @ Focus Sash
    Trait: Weak Armor
    EVs: 252 SAtk / 252 Spd
    Timid Nature (+Spd, -Atk)
    - Stealth Rock
    - Spikes
    - Scald
    - Ice Beam

    Something without Confusion or Paralysis? Shock and Terror! This is our dedicated lead/anti-typhlosion. Weak Armor helps get all those hazards up, which is important on a confusion based team, as there will be a lot of switching to try and escape confusion. It also helps with Chatot sweeps. There is no need for the four extra EVs. You want to give your opponents a little slack; they're going against Team MEXICO after all.

    WHAT DOES THAT SPELL? MEXICO!​
    And thus we come to the end of our team of Mexican heritage. It is such a great team, that requires much skill and effort to pull off. Of course, it is entirely weak to Electric-types, but they are no match for the power that is confusion. So kids, don't try to actually play Pokémon or use strategy, just have faith that RNG God, our Lord and Savior Pelipper, will show you the way.

    Machoke (M) @ Eviolite

    I have learned the path I must walk, it has been revealed to me.
    By grace of Miror B., Pelipper and BR I shall walk the path.
    No longer shall I toil in vain against such barriers as skill and prediction.
    As many luchadores have before me I shall cast off the shackles of shame and become a true hero of the ring.
    Viva Mejico.

    Just swept this team with CM+Barrier Mushy 4-0 before the FF, clearly a weak team. /s Hax gods weren't on your side for this battle (assuming it was you.) Team looks very well constructed and pretty annoying. Taking hax as far as you can in NU IMO. Ill definitely try it out later, looks fun to annoy people with.
