Actually, the system you are interested in is fundamental when determining how to generate the pseudopotential. Maybe, and just maybe, it could be enough for you to consider a 4s1 pseudo with nlcc. However, especially if you're interested in high pressure, you may have to include semicore electrons, with the additional performance penalty that implies.
So next time you ask for a PP to be given to you, perhaps you should mention what kind of PP you want.
