What should a good entry hazard team consist of?

Question

I really would like to build an entry hazrad team because I think the idea of one sounds very good and hard to face. But I'm really wondering what kinds of Pokemon would work well together in this type of team. I know some good entry hazard Pokemon are skarmory, ferrothorn, garbordor and many others but should a entry hazard team be combined with sweepers or walls and if so how many just need some good ideas thanks!

Answer 1

Forretress @ Leftovers
Trait: Sturdy
EVs: 252 HP / 252 Def / 4 SDef
Impish Nature (+Def, -SAtk)
- Volt Switch
- Stealth Rock
- Spikes
- Toxic Spikes

This is a basic set. Set up and Volt Switch. Use Rocks first.

Volcarona @ Life Orb
Trait: Flame Body
EVs: 4 HP / 252 SAtk / 252 Spd
Timid Nature (+Spd, -Atk)
- Fiery Dance
- Quiver Dance
- Bug Buzz
- Whirlwind

Set up Volcarona, then use Whirlwind. Switch!

Riolu (M) @ Focus Sash
Trait: Prankster
EVs: 252 HP / 4 Def / 252 Spd
Jolly Nature (+Spd, -SAtk)
- Roar
- Copycat
- Substitute
- Protect

The trick here is to Roar / abuse Whirlwind. Because Riolu has Prankster, Copycat will basically always go first.
