JadeX's OU Team [Need Help]

Overview :






Infernape
Naive
Blaze
Focus Sash
252 Sp. Atk / 64 Atk / 194 Spe
Fake Out
Fire Blast
Close Combat
Stealth Rock

Standard Infernape Lead which have proven itself capable of taking down opponent's lead (sometimes not setting up SR just to do that ) .
1 HP + Blaze Fire Blast



Scizor
Adamant
Technician
Choice Band
252 Atk / 244 HP / 12 Spe
Bullet Punch
Super Power
Pursuit
U-Turn

Standard CB Scizor . Speed of 12 just to outspeed opponent's Scizor ( 8 EV Speed Scizor is rather common nowdays I think ) . Nothing really much to say but Scizor is indeed a rather frightening pokemon .



Dragonite
Adamant
Inner Focus
Lum Berry
252 Atk / 252 Speed / 4 HP
Extreme Speed
Dragon Dance
Earthquake
Outrage

Adamant , 134 Atk , 252 EV Atk = High damage Extreme Speed .
If possible , set up 1-2 Dragon Dance and tries following Dragon Dance Salamence ' footstep .
Lum Berry to prevent Toxic/Thunder Wave/Will-O-Wisp from stopping its sweep.



Garchomp
Naive
Sand Veil
Choice Band
252 Atk / 252 Spe / 4 Def
Outrage
Earthquake
Fire Blast
Stone Edge

Well , Choice Band +Speed Garchomp is fast enough to run fast enough in the game . Choice Band Outrage really hurts .



Kojondo
Jolly
Regenerate
Life Orb
252 Atk/ 252 Speed / 4 HP
Fake Out
U-Turn
Stone Edge
High Jump Kick

A standard LO Kojondo . This pokemon actually started as a lead with Focus Sash . Well , not sure what pokemon to slot in for this slot so might as well try out this pokemon out



Starmie
Timid
Nature Cure
Life Orb
252 Sp.Atk / 252 Spe / 4 Def
Boiling Water
Ice Beam
Thunderbolt
Hidden Power Fire

Boiling Water + Bolt Beam combo pokemon .
Hidden Fire often surprises pokemon as they switch in Steel pokemon ( like Nattorie) when they sees Starmie .
Dropped Rapid Spin due to decline of Stealth Rock .

Stealth Rock's usage hasn't declined at all. :\ Not to mention Nattorei is the #1 most used pokemon and Forry and Skarm are in the top 22 usage wise so you have Spikes and T-Spikes to worry about too lol.

Anyway Fire Fang is better over Blast on CB Chomp it does more output damage wise and doesnt make you cut chompys good defenses.

Id use Roobushin over Kojondo honestly since you're horrifically Doryuuzu weak.

I think you're team is very good! Though not too original. XD;
Uuuum, I'd say from experience, replace the choice band of Garchomp for a choice scarf. Trust me, it comes in a lot more handy than the extra power. It's good for DanceMence, DanceKing, DanceMoth, Shell smashers, who have gotten one boost in.
And I I'd say drop the Starmie... I mean, if you REALLY want the diversity in a special attacker, Stamie is your man, star, thing. But, there are probably other special attackers worth your time. You're team doesn't have many powerful sweepers... So I would recommend trying maybe Shell Smash? Gorebyss makes excellent work with this. And with the abundance of Rain, you can snag the effect of Swift Swim for your own doing.

That's my opinion. ^^

If you're going for Roobushin, I suggest having Payback over Stone Edge on the set that PlatinumDude gave. Because Payback has higher accuracy while Stone Edge has lower accuracy and is only really useful against Shandera.

And Salamence, Gyarados, <anything flying> lol. Payback also lets you lose vs Cofagrigus due to Mummy.

It's actually a smarter move to run less Speed EVs than foe Scizor because if they try to Superpower you, you can hit them at -1 Def with your own Superpower and dish out more damage as a result.
