The Good Ol' Days (OU RMT)
 
Introduction
Okay, so Platinum was really irritating me, with all the same Pokes on the same team (Scizor, Heatran, Azelf, etc...) Which is why I designed this team; using a few of the old time standards that weren't given the "oh-so perfect" upgrades in Platinum.

Synergy
The main syngery of this team is to stall the opponent out with Spike/SR damage damage, and Wish support. Tyranitar is there mainly to provide a reliable trapper for things like Azelf/Gengar locked in Psychic and Shadow Ball (respectively) Ultimately, Deoxys-e and Infernape will end the show with one, final sweep.

Salamence @ Leftovers
Jolly
252 HP/178 Def/80 Spe
Dragon Dance
Earthquake
Dragon Claw
Roost

Description: BulkyMence isn't the ideal lead I was expecting, but it'll do. Don't be fooled by Dragon Dance; that's for late game. Ironically, many of the suicide leads use him as set up fodder, which is why I'm considering replacing him with something like Gliscor, but I'll certainly notice the lack of power.

Tyranitar @ Choice Band
Adamant
188 HP/252 Att/76 Spe
Stone Edge
Crunch
Earthquake
Pursuit

Description: Still the best Tyranitar set in my opinion. The sheer power of his Stone Edge really hurts usual "counters" like Skarmory and Forretress. Crunch massacres Bronzong, Metagross, and Jirachi. And a crit Stone Edge has a chance to OHKO Gliscor. Pursuit is there for trapping things like ScarfGar and such, which, with Deoxys-e, Salamence, and Skarmory, will come out many, many times. 76 Spe EV's to outrun Skarmory in a Roost vs. Stone Edge battle.

Skarmory @ Shed Shell
Impish
252 HP/96 Att/156 Def/6 Spe
Brave Bird
Spikes/Stealth Rock
Roost
Whirlwind

Description: Part one of the infamous walling duo, SkarmBliss. Unfortunately, the days of its invincible reign are long gone. Things like Boah, Infernape, Mixmence, Heracross, Lucario etc... all have a field day with them. Still, it can't be denied that Skarmory is a wall that should be considered when it's thrown out into the field. Being able to set up SR is excellent for the KO's my team'll need, but Spikes is still an option for longer stall walls. Whirlwind is so I don't lose to things like Electrode (lol)

Blissey @ Leftovers
Calm
82 HP/252 Def/176 SpD

Wish
Protect/Softboiled/Ice Beam
Seismic Toss
Thunder Wave

Description: Blissey! Passed over as set up fodder, that isn't far from the truth in most cases. Wish for team support, letting me stall out opponents (and because D_A basically stalled out MY team with this thing) Second slot is a toss up, but I may use Toxic since the idea of a "Double-Status" Blissey is amusing (Yes Anti, that's your set)

Infernape @ Life Orb
Naive
24 Att/252 SpA/234 Spe
Nasty Plot
Close Combat
Grass Knot
Flamethrower

Description: Mixape, real original, huh? Still, it gets the job done, and after a Nasty Plot, it does awesome things like 2HKOing Vaporeon with Grass Knot. Mainly left for late game, and with some para support, he can easily take advantage of para hax for that sexy +2 SpA boost.

Deoxys-e @ Life Orb
Naive
252 SpA/252 Spe/6 HP
Superpower
Thunderbolt
Ice Beam
Psychic

Description: Best revenge killer in the game in my opinion. Life Orb lets it OHKO Tyranitar with Superpower, but cannot 2HKO Blissey. BoltBeam for coverage, and Psychic for things like Hera and Infernape (who take this team for a joy ride)
