Balance is fine by me. I'm not exactly into Mega Latias though, but if we do use it, maybe this set?:
Latias @ Latiasite
Ability: Levitate
EVs: 248 HP / 68 Def / 192 Spe
Timid Nature
- Thunder Wave
- Roar
- Recover
- Dragon Pulse

We are still gathering ideas, so it sure would be nice if you could suggest something that you'd like us to build around. For variety and the sake of discussion. Heck, even if we don't settle with MLati, I could still try to build such a team myself. :P

I'd prefer sand HO with Mega Heracross
I wonder how "creative" that would be. I mean it pretty much implies that we use stuff like Scarf Ttar+Excadrill (plus something to not make the team lose to burns/Lando).

In general, I wonder how much creativity we could actually go for.

Balance works for me as well, but I'm not too into the Mega Latias idea.

Maybe we could bring in a UU mega like Absol?

We could use Mega Absol I guess. It bugs me that it's made of glass but oh well they want some creativity and at least it has Magic Bounce.

And idk pair it with Excadrill or Starmie and throw in a Talonflame or something?

I suppose, there won't be other suggestions. Can we get a poll or something? That way we can at least decide what mon to build around.

M'kay, there's now a poll up with the 3 megas mentioned so far. Let's see how this goes....

Just saying that in case of no real victor in the poll, our clan head might as well decide by a coin flip who we build around :)

Mega Absol it is. Next thing would be deciding on which set we want to use. We basically have to choose between a physical one or a mixed attacker.

Opinions?

Absol @ Absolite
Ability: Justified
EVs: 252 Atk / 32 SpA / 224 Spe
Jolly / Naive Nature
- Sucker Punch
- Knock Off
- Fire Blast / Ice Beam / Pursuit
- Superpower

That's pretty much the basic layout of the All-Out Attacker set. If we go mixed, Pursuit is pretty much out of question. Fire Blast is for the likes of Ferrothorn and Skarmory and Ice Beam for Lando-T and Gliscor. There's also options like Thunderbolt (for stuff like Azumarill).

So, what are we going for?

Stuff. Figured I might as well throw that out. Just some unfinished garbage, tbh., but since I figured that I might not even finish that stuff anyway, since I can't really find any sort of motivation, because I'm just a depressed piece of shit, I'll just show what I threw together. There's no real explanation to all the stuff, because I don't really feel like it and like I said, it's not even finished. <_<

I mean hey it's a start, and we kinda needed to get working on this anyway. It's not like you needed to make a finished team anyway since it's a clan thing that we're all supposed to contribute to.

I do like Toxicroak because the Water immunity is hella nice and it means we get a good Fairy check without resorting to a Steel type plus it gets Drain Punch to help it live longer in addition to water healing. It's also not a usual OU 'mon so there's that too n_n

I would actually change Talonflame to a set with Taunt over Will-o-Wisp so it breaks stall better, which the team needs (could also run a different EV spread to give more offensive presence, maybe).

Gonna need a spinner though because of the bird and hazard damage is no fun to have to keep taking over the course of the match.

The main issue that I have is that it's supposed to be an offensive core that breaks down defensive mons, yet it struggels with MSab, which is pretty much the embodiment of defensive. Also, since the core isn't all that bulky, offensive pressure kinda seems more important, making Hazard Removal potentially more of a hindrance. I'd actually prefer to not having to use TFlame at all. Not because I don't like it, but rather because of Rocks and stuff.

One of the good things about Toxicroak is that it also deals with Azumarill, which is usually one of the big threats to offensive teams.

Not my proudest creation but I'm at the point where I don't give a crap. Do whatever you want with it, change it, leave it as is, create something completely different, or keep ignoring everything; see if I care. No matter what you do, I think I've done enough for this "team work project" and you'll probably be able to deal with everything else.

I'm gonna take a break at least until the next season starts. Maybe I get some motivation to deal with you people again. Yadayadarantrantimoutcyalaterblabla.

I'm gonna play some Smash or something...

So made a few modifications to the version of the team RF posted:
Spoiler:


Yes there's no 6th 'mon, but that can just be filled with a Scarfer or something. Can go with Garchomp like in RF's version, or something else. Was kinda hoping that some of the rest of you could perhaps pitch ideas for the final slot.....

What is Starmie's EV spread for? Doesn't seem to be a standard one.
