well, tell me what you think constructive critisism is aprectiated .

The team honestly has bad overall coverage and synergy.

If absolutely insist on mixed Camerupt you can't run Adamant since it is -Sp.D. And if you are ok with taking a one-off move like Overheat then why not take Eruption which you should get a few uses out and and will be more powerful at first??

sorry got the nature wrong

also camerupt doesn't have acses to a physical fire type move.

Eruption + low speed + set up turn with rock polish = a big no no. Youll be taking too much damage the first turn for it to be effective. Fire blast is the way to go. Or flamethrower if you just love accuracy moves.

Yeah, it looks like you just threw a few pokemon together who really (besides smeargle) dont help granbull much

Need I say more?

hey guys I switched camerupt so check out the new poke .

oh and shnoogle, this team is not based off of helping granbull that's just were it started (with granbull I mean)

About that Grandbull, It is very easy to revenge kill so I recommend you to run this set.

Grandbull @ Choice Scarf
Intimidate
Jolly | 252 Spe / 252 Atk / 6 HP
~CC
~Return
~Earthquake
~Crunch / ThuderPunch / Ice Punch.

Maxing out Speed gives you 310 Speed which O-Speeds many good Choice Banders Without Priority Move ( Azelf, Jirachi, Max Speed Gyarados...)

what does that have to do with revenge killing?
quick feet will double your speed instead of raising it by 1.5, so it's the better option

Wrong Quick Feet gives a boost of 1.5 also, same as Choice Scarf, but it still means that switching the set to "avoid revenge kills" is pointless, especially since revenge kills are often priority moves.
