Kangaskhan (F) @ Choice Band
Trait: Early Bird
EVs: 28 HP / 252 Atk / 228 Spd
Jolly Nature (+Spd, -SAtk)
- Earthquake
- Fake Out
- Focus Punch
- Return

'Khan is just awesome. I just can't explain how good this is. Fake Out is cool but I'm considering Shadow Ball over it.

Xatu (F) @ Leftovers
Trait: Synchronize
EVs: 248 HP / 60 Def / 56 Spd / 71 SAtk / 72 SDef
Bold Nature (+Def, -Atk)
- Psychic
- Reflect
- Thunder Wave
- Wish

Supporter and fighting resistance.

Aggron (F) @ Leftovers
Trait: Sturdy
EVs: 196 HP / 132 Atk / 120 Def / 60 Spd
Adamant Nature (+Atk, -SAtk)
- Focus Punch
- Rock Slide
- Substitute
- Thunder Wave

Awesome :cool:

Typhlosion (F) @ Petaya Berry
Trait: Blaze
EVs: 4 HP / 252 Spd / 252 SAtk
Modest Nature (+SAtk, -Atk)
- Fire Blast
- Hidden Power [Grass]
- Quick Attack
- Thunderpunch

Fire Blast HURTS. Badly. It takes at least 50% out of most stuff. I'm trying the non-sub version just because.

Misdreavus (F) @ Leftovers
Trait: Levitate
EVs: 180 HP / 148 Atk / 180 Spd
Jolly Nature (+Spd, -SAtk)
- Destiny Bond
- Pain Split
- Shadow Ball
- Thunder Wave

MissyD fits really well with this team, but I can't think of a good moveset for it (No, don't say the perishtrapping version because I just can't use it right. =[). I think 3 T-wavers is overdoing it.

Lapras (F) @ Leftovers
Trait: Water Absorb
EVs: 208 HP / 44 Def / 84 SAtk / 172 SDef
Calm Nature (+SDef, -Atk)
- Ice Beam
- Surf
- Thunderbolt
- Toxic

Special Sponge. I don't think toxic and thunder wave on the same team really fits well together, but toxic is just so awesome. I think its underrated and should be used more. Being poisoned is very annoying and it cancels out lefties and forces switches. I don't get why nobody (at least not very many) people use it. Perhaps Lanturn > Lapras since I have an electric problem.

I like this team very much. It has won me a lot of battles and has been doing well so far. Are there any major weaknesses that I need to cover or moveset problems? Thanx in advance. ;)

Yeah, do go with Shadow Ball. Many Reversal/Flailers out there tend to use Endure instead of Sub, which easily counter Fake Out. Besides, it gives you something against oh-so-annoying MissyD.
I prefer Adamant because Jolly Kanga doesn't even reach 300 Attack without CB. But if you insist on Jolly, then give it one more Speed point to outrun Jolly Hitmonlee.


Xatu (F) @ Leftovers
Trait: Synchronize
EVs: 248 HP / 60 Def / 56 Spd / 71 SAtk / 72 SDef
Bold Nature (+Def, -Atk)
- Psychic
- Reflect
- Thunder Wave
- Wish

This same set can be given to Hypno, who defends a lot better. If Xatu isn't holding up as well as you like, consider putting those Spd/SAtk EVs into Def/SDef (and give Xatu Night Shade).

Aggron (F) @ Leftovers
Trait: Sturdy
EVs: 196 HP / 132 Atk / 120 Def / 60 Spd
Adamant Nature (+Atk, -SAtk)
- Focus Punch
- Rock Slide
- Substitute
- Thunder Wave

Standard. I'm seeing Aggron on every UU team these days.

Typhlosion (F) @ Petaya Berry
Trait: Blaze
EVs: 4 HP / 252 Spd / 252 SAtk
Modest Nature (+SAtk, -Atk)
- Fire Blast
- Hidden Power [Grass]
- Quick Attack
- Thunderpunch

Meh, I still like Sub for the guaranteed Petaya boost. But I see how you do need a Quick Attacker, so good luck with that.

Misdreavus (F) @ Leftovers
Trait: Levitate
EVs: 180 HP / 148 Atk / 180 Spd
Jolly Nature (+Spd, -SAtk)
- Destiny Bond
- Pain Split
- Shadow Ball
- Thunder Wave

This set works fine. If you want, you can try Calm Mind Misdreavus with CM/Psychic/Thunderbolt/(Pain Split/Taunt/Destiny Bond). It certainly gives Slowbro a run for the money.

Lapras (F) @ Leftovers
Trait: Water Absorb
EVs: 208 HP / 44 Def / 84 SAtk / 172 SDef
Calm Nature (+SDef, -Atk)
- Ice Beam
- Surf
- Thunderbolt
- Toxic

Yes, Lapras is very underrated. If you give this one 300 Sp. Def (just 5 more stat points) it will be guaranteed to survive 2 Modest Lanturn Thunderbolts among other things.

It’s a very good UU team that can handle most things out there.

Watch out that 3 of your Pokemon are weak against Rock attacks. Something like Machamp or Armaldo can ruin your fun.

Your team also doesn’t like Sleep. You can remedy this by replacing Xatu with Hypno or even putting Sleep Talk on Kangaskhan instead of Fake Out.

K, thx for the rate. I'll try Hypno over Xatu, but I really like Xatu's ground immunity. ;( Aggron is just so awesome which is the reason why its on every single UU team. Jolly on Khan is mostly to outrun leading Adamant Fearows or any other 100 base speed Pokemon.
