Scald:This is a stable move as a attacking one because this can burn the opponents and this accuracy is reliable.
Hypnosis:This is more useful than Ice Beam and Encore for this effect.
Perish Song:Another Pokemon has to song except Gengar for win.
Protect:to earn the Perish turn.
Bright Powder:This Pokemon can't have Sitrus Berry and Leftbovers and can bear Manectric's Thunder,so i chose this item as increasing a chance of winning.



EVs: 4 HP / 252 SAtk / 252 Spd
Timid Nature

This Kindra must be quicker than the opponent's Kingdra so i chose Timid.

Draco Meteor:This pokemon is chosen when I can't use Perish-Trap Tactics,so this has 1HKO parts.
Hydro Pump:This pokemon is chosen when I can't use Perish-Trap Tactics,so this has 1HKO parts.
Muddy Water:This move attack 2 Pokemons and can lower the opponent's accuracy
Protect:A lot of people want to beat this pokemons and Choice Specs and Scarf are incompatible with this team.
Life Orb:I want this Kingdra to protect and Higher Power.



EVs: 188 HP / 20 Def / 44 SAtk / 4 SDef / 252 Spd
Timid Nature

Spd:The MAX for quick Perish Song

Perish Song:No reason(The team Theme)
Shadow Ball:to beat Ghost-type which can escape from Shadow Tag

Trick Room:to help Politoed's Perish Song and Amoonguss
Reflect:Compared with Charm,the effect lasts in 5 turns if the opponent's pokemons change.
Psybeam:I fear Taunt so need a Attacking move.Psybeam can confuse the opponent's Pokemons.Psyshock is compatible with Scrafty's Crunch.Psychic is the most Power.I think this 3 choices are OK in equal measure.
Protect:Of course I haven't already needed to introduce the reason ha ha ha
Sitrus Berry:This Pokemon must remain the battlefield as a Shadow Tag Pokemon

Sorry for omit the moves reason for its generality.

Eject Button:This is very useful.First,for quick setting Rain.Second,When Scrafty comes back to Amoonguss and Eject Button is activated to send scrafty,I can choose Fake Out in next turn so can easily earn turns.Third,this cancels out the effects of moves such as Volt Switch and U-turn.



EVs: 252 HP / 92 Atk / 44 Def / 116 SDef / 4 Spd

And I hear this Scrafty has a 75% chance to bear Timid-Gardevoir's Dazzling Gleam.It's too solid!ha ha

Fake out:Stop the opponent's Pokemons.The priority is described later.
Drain Punch:The healing effect is compatible with this team
Crunch:attack Ghost-Type
Protect:Detect is better for Imprison.This moves and Scrafry's defense sometimes let Leftovers activated more 4 times.


【Choices and "Standard" Playings】
①Scrafty,Gengar-Gothitelle,Politoed(Standard Choice)
1st:Fake Out(Scrafty),Perish Song and Mega-Evolution(Gengar)

[The Priority of this Fake Out]
Intercept Perish Song>1HKO mine>High Power Moves>Others

2nd:Protect(Both),3rd:Change for erasing my Perish turns(Both),4th:Protect(Both)

②Amoonguss,Gengar-Gothitelle,Politoed
This Choice is selected for the opponent's Fake Outer,Greninja,and Taunter such as Liepard for instance.
Usually 1st:Protect&Mega-Evolution(Both)
2nd:Rage Powder(Amoonguss),Perish Song(Gengar)
You can guess the rest…

③The Opponent's Ghost-Type
Trevenant,Gourgeist,Chandelure:Scrafty&Gengar's move can beat these so Standard Choice is OK but must care for Choice Scarf Chandelure.
Gengar&Sableye:You should choose Gengar in the start and select moves in flexible ways of thinking.
Aegislash:You must think whether Aegislash uses Shadow Ball,Substitute,and King's Shield.If you can,you'll win!

④Volt Switch,U-turn
You had better throw away Perish-Trap Tactics.You can win by beating!
