Breloom Team (OU)

[imevil]

Hey guys this is a new team I have been trying out. It's not the best and I'm trying to get better with it. All help is appreciated!

Loominati (Breloom) @ Life Orb
Trait: Technician
EVs: 4 HP / 252 Atk / 252 Spd
Adamant Nature
- Swords Dance
- Mach Punch
- Spore
- Bullet Seed

Breloom is the star of the team. He starts out by using Spore, then using Swords Dance hoping they either switch or stay in and remain asleep. Use Mach Punch usually, but Bullet Seed if Mach Punch is resisted. Technician really helps out on the damage for the other two moves.

Pumba (Mamoswine) @ Leftovers
Trait: Thick Fat
EVs: 252 Atk / 4 SDef / 252 Spd
Jolly Nature
- Ice Shard
- Icicle Crash
- Earthquake
- Stone Edge

This guy is hear to cover certain weaknesses. He also can use Ice Shard to take down a pokemon.

BallsOfSteel (Ferrothorn) @ Leftovers
Trait: Iron Barbs
EVs: 252 HP / 88 Def / 168 SDef
Relaxed Nature
IVs: 0 Spd
- Spikes
- Gyro Ball
- Leech Seed
- Power Whip

Ferro is my tank. He sits there and leechs down your health. He puts down spikes and uses T Wave to paralyze you, he is the ultimate utility pokemon IMO

Syther (Scizor) @ Choice Band
Trait: Technician
EVs: 248 HP / 252 Atk / 8 SDef
Adamant Nature
- Bullet Punch
- U-turn
- Pursuit
- Superpower

Scizor is my second in line in case Breloom goes down. Bullet Punch gives him priority, Super Power can help him get a quick kill and switch and Pursuit is for type cover.

RAWR (Heatran) @ Leftovers
Trait: Flash Fire
EVs: 252 SAtk / 4 SDef / 252 Spd
Timid Nature
- Fire Blast
- Earth Power
- Hidden Power [Ice]
- Stealth Rock

Hes mainly hear to use flash fire to counter fir types that can take out Scizor and Breloom.

Blue or Pink (Jellicent) @ Leftovers
Trait: Water Absorb
EVs: 248 HP / 216 Def / 44 Spd
Bold Nature
IVs: 30 Atk / 30 Def
- Recover
- Scald
- Will-O-Wisp
- Taunt

Can shut down a physical sweeper with Will o Wisp, Taunt can hurt a pokemon setting hazards, or an annoying Ferrothorn.


Thank you guys! All help is appreciated!

Mamoswine could use Life Orb or Choice Band as Jolly + Leftovers doesn't give it enough power to KO the opposition.

Thunder Wave + Gyro Ball is a big no-no on Ferrothorn. Gyro Ball gets stronger the faster the opponent is than Ferrothorn itself. Thunder Wave slows down the opponent, weakening Gyro Ball's power. Replace one of them with Power Whip or Protect.

Other than that, team looks good, aside from that semi-massive Fire weakness, which can be covered by Jellicent and Heatran.

Thanks PlatinumDude! Also, should I add a water move to my Jellicent set. He seems kinda weak without one.

Jellicent can get away with Night Shade because of how weak it is without Special Attack investment in the first place. Of course, Scald is worth considering if you want to go for the burn chance and the ability to attack Normal Pokemon.
