Mono-Psychic
Hello everyone. This is my first Mono-type team for competitive play and I wanted to make sure it works. Here's the team:
Gardevoir @Gardevoirite Ability: Trace Nature: Timid EV's: 16 HP, 8 Def, 232 SpA, 252 Spe Moveset: Hypervoice Psyshock Focus Blast Will-O-Wisp She is here to take out any Dragon and Fighting Types that could hurt the team in any way, and having a Psychic Type that isn't super hurt by Dark types and can deal massive damage to them is a great help. Metagross @ Assault Vest Ability: Clear Body Nature: Adamant EV's: 252 Hp, 160 Atk, 96 Spd Moveset: Pursuit Meteor Mash Bullet Punch Earthquake This monster is here to take out any Fairy or Poison types that happen to appear, and acts as a revenge killer. Slowbro @ Leftovers Ability: Regenerate Nature: Bold EV's: 252 Hp, 232 Def, 24 Spd Moveset: Scald Thunderwave Slack Off Psyshock (Might change out for Calm Mind) This guy he is for taking out Rock, Ground, and any Fire Types that pop up, as well as being a Physical wall. Celebi @ Leftover Ability: Natural Cure Nature: Bold EV's: 252 Hp, !56 Def, 84 Spd, 16 spe Moveset: Stealth Rock Giga Drain Recover Thunderwave This little one is the answer to Water Types, the Hazard set-up, and just being an all around annoyance. Victini @ Choice Band/ Choice Scarf (Depends on what I want to use) Ability: Victory Star Nature: Timid EV's: 252 Atk, 4 Def, 252 Spe Moveset: V-create Bolt Strike U-turn Trick This little guy here is for any Grass, Ice, and Bug Types, as well as a Trick user if the need arises. Latias @ Life Orb Ability: Levitate Nature: Timid EV's: 72 Hp, 184 SpA, 252 Spe Moveset: Draco Meteor Defog Psyshock Healing Wish Finally, this lass is here to clear the field and sacrifice herself if the need arises. Any help, tips, and suggestions are appreciated. |
Actually this team looks pretty good at a glance. Watch out for Sharpedo and Weavile since they might cause some issues but for the most part I can't see any notable flaws.

I feel like the fast electrics annoy this team quite a bit (Mega-Manectric, Thundurus, Raikou) with their multiude of coverage moves, specifically specs shadow ball from Raikou and Manectric outspeeding and KO-ing Metagross with Overheat. Therefore, I feel like you should run Scarf Victini. You could even change it to Scarf Rachi - something like
Jirachi @ Choice Scarf Jolly, 252 ATK 252 SPE 4 SPD Iron Head Heart Stamp U-Turn Healing Wish And then you could change the Latias slot to something else like LO Latios or priority attacking Mew. Lots of options. However, this is a suggestion and I think you've created quite the formidable team as is and it doesn't seem to have any glaring weaknesses. |

Also, I have this mentality of having all my Pokemon be different types. (And while this is a Mono-Type team, I don't want Pokemon to have the same Secondary-Type. IE: Metagross and Jirachi. It's a big quirk I developed over the years playing Pokemon.) |
