This is my second team after discovering my first has a gaping weakness to.. well everything. So I decided to make it revolve around Scizor. I think my team has pretty great synergy.
Well, I tried making a new team, and I think I made it improve a lot.
EDIT: I changed it again!
Mamoswine
Dragonite
Starmie
Magnezone
Flygon
Scizor
Lead
Mamoswine @ Focus Sash
Ability: Snow Cloak
Nature: Jolly
EVs: 252 Atk / 4 Def / 252 Spe
Moves: Stealth Rock
Earthquake
Ice Shard
Endeavor
In my opinion, Mamoswine makes still an excellent lead even for my new team. The high attack power is nice for killing off several common leads, most especially bulky dragon types like Salamence. Endeavor is also a handy move to have, just in case Focus Sash activates and I get nearly OHKO'ed. Stealth Rock can also become useful when sweeping with Scizor. If Mamoswine still survives, there is a possibility that I can use him in late game to attack.
Rapid Spinner/Bulky Water Killer
Starmie @ Leftovers
Ability: Natural Cure
Nature: Timid
EVs: 88 HP / 20 Def / 188 Spe / 188 Spc / 20 Spd
Moves: Surf
Thunderbolt
Rapid Spin
Recover
As my team's primary weakness is Fire, Starmie was a Pokemon I decided to get. I realized that I needed to kill off Pokemon that can be a threat to Scizor. Starmie makes an good killer of Fire Types and has a bonus of killing off Bulky Waters with the use of Thunderbolt. Rapid Spin is also a very effective move on this set because Entry Hazards will be important because if may cause problems when trying to set up Scizor for a sweep. Surf is a reliable STAB move for killing off Fire Types, as I was very unhappy with the inaccuracy of Hydro Pump.
Steel Killer/Special Attacker
Magnezone @ Leftovers
Ability: Magnet Pull
Nature: Timid
EVs: 40 Atk / 252 SpA / 216 Spe
Moves: Substitute
Thunderbolt
Hidden Power Fire
Explosion
Scizor is becoming more and more popular in teams and has become an effective threat, so, I decided that I needed a steel killer. Magnezone is always the prime choice for a steel killer. Many people also use Metagross and Bronzong, so it can also kill it effectively. Thunderbolt is for great STAB, HP Fire for more effective steel type killing, Explosion for suicide, and Substitute to make it survivable against several threats. It can also double as a special attacker.
Revenge Killer/Scout
Flygon @ Choice Scarf
Ability: Levitate
Nature: Jolly
EVs: 4 HP / 252 Atk / 252 Spd
Moves: Outrage
Earthquake
Stone Edge
U-Turn
Choice Scarf and plenty of resistances make Flygon an effective Revenge Killer. With decent 100 base Atk, he can 2HKO some of the most commonly seen Pokemon. He basically arrives if my attackers or sweepers die. He can also make an effective scout. U-Turn is a good move as it allows me to scout any threats ahead of time and quickly switch out, especially with Choice Scarf.
Physical Sweeper
Dragonite @ Leftovers
Ability: Inner Focus
Nature: Adamant
EVs: 252 HP / 204 Atk / 52 Spe
Moves: Dragon Dance
Dragon Claw
Earthquake
Roost
New replacement to Ninjask. He is a very good sweeper, and is a monster with the help of Dragon Dance. Since Salamence was banished to Uber, Dragonite has been one of the best DD users in the OU tier. He works in conjuction with Scizor, as they resist each others weaknesses. Roost is an important recovery move. Dragon Claw is a primary stab, as I was unhappy with Outrage's effects. Earthquake is for an alternative to Dragon Claw and primarily for Steel types.
Physical Sweeper
Scizor @ Leftovers
Ability: Technician
Nature: Adamant
EVs: 248 HP / 252 Atk / 8 Spe
Moves: Roost
Bullet Punch
Brick Break
Swords Dance
The core of my team. After a few Swords Dances, it will be a killing machine. The Bullet Punch is the most important move on this set, as with a few Swords Dances, Scizor can kill threats as well as it being a priority. For those pesky walls that Bullet Punch cannot OHKO, Brick Break will can rip through them. Roost is gives an option to recover some HP.
