Help with a water/rock team?
My question is about building a team ofthreefor the Super Single battles at the Battle Tree with a water/rock type as the main choice. I always wanted to build a team with a rock/water type so I could use it whenever I want. I got all the Pokemon except for 8 event Pokemon so I got resources to make any kind of team I want. I need help choosingtwoteammates to cover the weaknesses of Barbaracle without any of the team members sharing a weakness.Example: Nidoking, Scizor, and Mantine. Each member of this team doesn’t share a weakness and covers their teammate’s weak points. I want the Barbaracle team to have the same synergy as the Nidoking team. Yeah I’m very picky about team building :3.The closest I ever got with a water/rock type was using a Gliscor to cover the electric, ground, and fighting weakness. However, a new problem occurred. I couldn’t find a Pokemon to cover Gliscor’s water weakness and the grass weakness of Barbaracle.I want to build a team with a water/rock type but no matter what partners I choose I can’t cover all the weaknesses. I’ve thought about this soooooo much it frustrates me. My questions are these;Is it even possible to build a team with a water/rock type while covering its weaknesses and not sharing a weakness with its partners? What partners would work? How many possible teams are there?If anyone can help me I would really, really, appreciate it.Remember, the team members must not share a weakness with one another and the teammates must cover each other’s weaknesses.Sorry for being super picky but this is just how I put my teams together. I’m hoping other players with a different battle style than mine can help me find the answers I need. Thank you for leaving a comment and feedback to help me with my dilemma =)

Maybe not. I think the closest you’ll get to finding a good counter for the team would be Ferrothorn/Kartana. Since they resist Water and quad resist Grass, they’re a perfect option for resisting the weaknesses stated above. However, they do have a quad weakness to Fire and a weakness to Fighting. The Fighting can be covered with Gliscor, but both Ferrothorn/Kartana and Scizor have a quad Fire weakness, which is dangerous to have even if it’s resisted by Mantine and Barbaracle. So, in short, I think the closest you’ll get to what you want from the team is either Ferrothorn or Haxorus, who has a counter for Dragon and Fairy type attacks in the form of Scizor, but it shares an Ice weakness that can be countered, but it is annoying to counter. So, in short, it will work but it’s imperfect.Of course, I may have missed something as well, so search for yourself, I suppose.
