First OU Team
Hello! I am kind of new to the whole competitive battling scene, and I've been testing stuff out on Pokemon Showdown. This team is one of the things I've been messing around with. I'm just want to know what I'm doing wrong and if there is anything I could be doing better. Advice and criticism is greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance! This team is for Gen V by the way. The things in bold is stuff I have changed.

Heatran is better off with max Special Attack and max Speed. What purpose do its Speed EVs serve? Since you have no entry hazards on you whatsoever, I'd give it Stealth Rock, preferably over Toxic, since Heatran needs all 3 of its offensive moves for coverage.

Yeah I was thinking about putting SR on someone. I've also been thinking about replacing the Breloom I have with a Swords Dance set. Would that be a good idea or no?

I was thinking of replacing Garchomp with something better, so Jellicent sounds like a good choice. I have had problems with Fighting type moves KOing Heatran and Ttar.

I suggest Changing Bullet seed to Giga Drain to Heal yourself. And also go to a Poison heal and Toxic orb on Breloom.
Scizor: Change the Item to Leftovers. It weal heal the damage that you take unless your facing a fire type. Then I would suggest the Berry that reduces the fire type attack to Half of its original damage. I would also Change T-Tars item to something else. And Change one of those moves to Dragon dance for a very good attack. and speed. |
Breloom has the potential to fill a couple rolls. It seems you want the techniloom set so here's the basic one.
[email protected] orb/Focus sash Trait: Technician EV's: 252 Atk, 252 Spe, 4 hp Jolly nature Spore Swords Dance Mach Punch Bullet Seed This set helps bring out Brloom's potential as a physical sweeper and abuses priority. With max speed, Breloom can out speed a fair majority of the tier and deal some major damage with Bullet Seed if they resist fighting. The rest of your team looks pretty good to me. |

OK I changed my Breloom to be a swords dance set (seriously that is soo good just spore then SD once on the switch/them hoping to wake up and then kill a few pokes). Still looking for any critique or critisism anyone has! :D
