    1. Volturn lc
    hello friends, this is Kite here and I noticed that there is a small LC community on PO with some capable players, and others looking to learn the tier; And so, I thought: why not share a team that has been working really well for me and have fun while I’m at it?
    [​IMG] [​IMG] [​IMG] [​IMG][​IMG][​IMG]










    1. [​IMG]
      Pawniard@ eviolite
      *jolly* Nature
      Sucker Punch
      Iron Head
      Swords Dance
      Knock Off


      The main Stealth rock setter of the team, I made it as fast a possible to speed tie with other pawniards and/or to get them flinches with iron head. Pawniard also has access to one of the most overpowered moves in the LC metagame: Knock Off. If you are new to the tier and are not sure what to click, Knock off in Lc comes at literally no cost, as removing the eviolites off of the other team really puts the rest of your team in a better position to finish the job.



      [​IMG]
      Foongus @ eviolite
      *bold* Nature
      Hidden power(fire)
      Spore
      Sludge Bomb
      Giga Drain


      This little mushroom should not be underestimated, Foongus is one of my favourite pivots and is really easy to use.
      Step 1:prepare to spore
      Step 2: check for other grass types/pokemon with abilities that block spore—don’t see any? skip to next step(three)!!— such as magby,vullaby,elekid and try to nail with coverage move
      Step 3: Start operation Spore! \o/
      Step 4:now that you have incapacitated one of opponents pokemon, you can either switch and try to better your position, or if fungus is not immediately threatened start using coverage moves


      [​IMG]
      Fletchling@No Item
      *naughty* nature
      U-Turn
      Acrobatics
      Overheat
      Tailwind


      Flechling is one of the revenge killers of the team and really helps me against faster, annoying threats like scarf gothita and magic guard abra once focus sash is broken (gl with that) Also It forms a solid U-turn core with magnemite as well as a trap core with diglett and magnemite.


      [​IMG]
      (Magnemite) @Choice Scarf
      *modest* Nature (*+stat -stat)
      Flash Cannon
      Thunderbolt
      Volt Switch
      Hidden Power(fire)
      Choice scarf magnemite here is part of the trap core and is also another revenge killer on the team because you just can’t have enough imo.



      [​IMG]
      Timburr@Eviolite
      *careful* Nature
      Knock Off
      Mach Punch
      Drain Punch
      Bulk Up


      Timbur is another one of the teams win conditions as well as the status absorber thanks to guts; once you have removed those annoying ghosts and psychic types you can proceed to set up with this little Hercules and say ‘’gg’’ -Timbur is also a beast with tailwind support.

      [​IMG]
      Diglett @ Life Orb
      *jolly* Nature
      Earthquake
      Sucker Punch
      Rock Slide
      Stealth Rock
      [*]
      Last but not least we have diglett, my favourite trapper. Usually with diglett I try to bring him in safely via U-turn/volt switch but sometimes, If you are feeling brave like I do, you can double him in on a predicted switch against your foongus,or fletchling to trap their checks and clear the way for them.​




    2. I would also like to point out that the ev spreads moves, and abilities are mostly standard so nothing much to say about them other than just finding the sets on PO with /pokesets command. If anyone has spotted some glaring weakness this team has or you just think its a cool team, feel free to let me know in comments section. Haters are also welcome to comment just be sure to leave a home address and phone number n_n


    3. Anyways, so there you have it: a volturn team that can really surprise opponents when played right (please play it right) and secure wins ez pz :D

    Fletchling is missing evs. Use this for 2 extra points.

    EVs: 76 HP / 200 Atk / 12 Def / 40 SpA / 180 Spe

    The rest of your team is just standard voluturn. I'd reccomend HP ground on Magnemite as it helps against Chinchou more and you already have Ferroseed covered well.

    well, nice team but i recomnd u sword dance instead of overheat as talking about your moves r nice but over heat cud not work most it cant take down a scarfed magnemite so no use and u had stealth rocks on diglett and painward make diglett remove stealth rocks and keep substitue it will not led ur digelett die as it has week def and can be dead by sucker punch of painward or remove stealth rocks frm painward and keep low sweep they will work for sure nice team :)

    Swords dance on fletchling is very common, one can even call it standard, but it would take away from the vulturn core this team is supposed to be so I might keep it the same..hmm, I really like having a back up rock setter in case one of my setters gets sniped(i can play risky sometimes), but substitute on diglett is not a bad idea and I think i might try it out. Thanks for the rate my friend n_n
