    Blaziken
    Adamant

    @Blazikenite
    Speed Boost

    -HJK
    -Flare Blitz
    -Baton Pass
    -Protect

    Mega Evolve on the very first turn. You can either take out leads such as Ferrothorn or jam it with a Protect and Baton Pass your newly found Speed too one of your other Pokemon.

    Gogoat
    Careful
    252 HP / 252 SpDef / 4 Spe
    @ Leftovers
    Sap-Sipper

    -Bulk Up
    -Horn Leech/Leaf Blade
    -Earthquake/Rock Slide/Payback
    -Substitute/Milk Drink

    Sylveon
    Bold
    252 HP / 252 Def / 4 SpA
    @ Leftovers
    Cute Charm

    -Wish
    -Protect
    -Moon Blast
    -Heal Bell

    Mainly for support purposes.



    Skarmory
    Impish
    224 HP / 252 Def/ 42 SpD
    @ Shed Shell
    - Stealth Rock
    - Roost
    - Whirlwind
    - Brave Bird / Steel Wing

    It can take hits pretty well with its SW / BB while putting out hazards and Whirlwinding the opposing Pokemon. The Shed Shell should be self explanatory.

    Greninja
    Hasty
    252 Spd/ 252 SpA / 4 Atk
    @ Life Orb
    Protean

    - U-turn
    - Spikes
    - Hydro Pump
    - Ice Beam

    Probably the most fun member on the whole team. It practically gets stab from all its move via Protean. The Life Orb lets it hit even harder with its beautiful Sp. Atk and has a very nice speed stat to compliment. If they situation is looking too risky, just U-Turn and send one of your bulkies in.



    Tyranitar
    Adamant
    252 HP / 252 Atk / 4 SpD
    @ Assault Vest
    Sand Stream

    -Crunch
    -Stone Edge
    -Pursuit
    -Earthquake/Superpower/Low Kick

    Now presenting Godzilla . He can take hits pretty well and can dish out a lot of damage. If you can get a few Speed Boosts in with MegaBlaze, this beast is something to really be afraid of.

    • The Chespin line has Bulletproof. The Skiddo line has Grass Pelt, which boosts Defense in grass. Sap Sipper is still Gogoat's preferred ability. Mono-Grass is terrible; not only are you walled by Steel Pokemon, but you're also walled by other Sap Sippers:
    -Bulk Up
    -Horn Leech/Leaf Blade
    -Earthquake/Rock Slide/Payback
    -Substitute/Milk Drink
    Nature: Careful/Adamant
    EVs: 252 HP/4 Def/252 SDef (Careful) or 252 HP/252 Atk/4 SDef (Adamant)
    Item: Leftovers
    Ability: Sap Sipper

    Really, what's the point of Tyranitar having an Adamant nature if its Attack is barely even invested at all? Use 252 HP/252 Atk/4 SDef (or 4 HP/252 Atk/252 Spe to more readily take advantage of Blaziken's Speed Boosts more easily) as the EV spread. Assault Vest and Sand Stream compensate for the lack of Special Defense investment. Or you can have Tyranitar use the Mega Evo slot since regular Blaziken can also have Speed Boost as one of its abilities; it's bulkier and has a slight Speed buff:
    -Crunch
    -Stone Edge
    -Pursuit
    -Earthquake/Superpower/Low Kick
    Nature: Adamant
    EVs: 252 HP/252 Atk/4 SDef 4 HP/252 Atk/252 Spe
    Item: Assault Vest/Tyranitarite
    Ability: Sand Stream

    Yeah Gogoat is outclassed by like any decent grass type with coverage. I struggle to find a reason to use it over things that actually have coverage and the ability to not be walled by everything. :\ Mega Venusaur, Breloom, Trevenant etc are all so much better than it. Trevenant also blocks rapid spin so he is a good option. Whilst Megasaur beats Mega Lucario via thick fat who otherwise really tricks you.

    Team also lacks Stealth Rock which puts you at a disadvantage, put it on Skarm and then Spikes on Greninja imo over G-Knot or Ice Beam. Also seems a waste to not use Dark Pulse on Greninja but meh.

    EDIT:


    Also just realized you are incredibly Mega Blaziken weak. Id get a check for that probs over tar.

    Thanks for the feedback! I will take this into serious consideration.
    EDIT: And the Bulletproof on Gogoat was a complete Typo. It was left on from a Chesnaught build I put on my team prior to changing it.

    Reason why I did not put Dark Pulse on Greninja is because 1. It has Protean and 2. I already have Dark coverage w/ TTar .
