Oh noes! Monsters! [Uber RMT]

[.]

We all know them, ubers. No, not Chomp-uber, I mean real ubers. The ubers that make Chomp piss his pants. I decided to make my own team for the Uber Metagame.

​

Deoxys-D​

@ Leftovers
Careful
252 HP/82 Def/176 SpD
Knock Off
Spikes
Taunt
Recover​

Deoxys-D makes an awesome lead. Knock Off cripples highly-item reliant Pokes such as Kyogre and Mewtwo. It also can hang with Deoxys-A for a while, hurting it with Knock Off. Spikes is incredibly broken on this guy; you're guaranteed to get some off in the early match, which helps ruin Sashes on things like Deoxys-A. Taunt lets me shut down things that are attempting a sweep, such as Bulk Up Diagla, or Dragon Dance Rayquaza. Recover lets me laugh in the face of powerful physical attackers. Overall, a very solid lead.​

Rayquaza​

@ Life Orb
Jolly
252 Att/252 Spe/6 HP
Swords Dance
Earthquake
Outrage
Extremespeed​

Oh god, where do I begin? Picture Lucario, except on a crack binge. SD Rayquaza eats the uber Metagame. Worse than Garchomp did to OU. Outrage makes Metagross think about trying to resist my main STAB. Extremespeed destroys anything that resists my two main moves. EQ is there for steels like Diagla and Steel Arceus that would usually wall me and take me out with Ice Beam efficiently. Those expecting the DD set will be hammered by a +2 Outrage. In closing, a very potent, very scary physical sweeper.​

Arceus​

@ Fist Plate
Modest
252 HP/72 Def/56 Spe/98 SpA/32 Spe
Judgement
Ice Beam
Toxic
Recover​

Fist Plate Arceus serves as my main Darkrai and Tyranitar counter. Judgement and Ice Beam offer great coverage, hitting both Tar and Rayquaza for 4x Super Effective, two of the scariest threats in ubers. Toxic offers a nice option for Toxic stalling. Recover offers a nice way to instant heal in the face of my opponent. Considering if I should go Reflect/Light Screen over Toxic to stop Rayquaza from eating me alive. Very good Pokemon with a lot of bulk.

​

Diagla​

@ Leftovers
Adamant
252 HP/252 SpD/6 Att
Earthquake
Dragon Claw
Bulk Up
Rest​

My overall bulk of the team. Diagla with Bulk Up and Rest let me make him quite the physical tank. It can eat up Earthquakes after a few Bulk Ups, and can deal out STAB Dragon Claws with great succession. Earthquake for enemy Diaglas and Metagross. His EV spread is for extra survivability against the frightening Special Attackers in Ubers. Solid choice on my team.​

Palkia​

@ Choice Band
Jolly
32 HP/252 Att/226 Spe
Aqua Tail
Dragon Claw
Stone Edge
Earthquake​

What can I say about Palkia, that hasn't been said about a nuclear bomb approaching your town? It's unstopabble! Stone Edge rips through Lugia like wet tissue paper, although if it's raining I'll go Aqua Tail. Earthquake crack Diagla's head open with ease, while hitting TTar and Metagross sending them back to OU. Aqua Tail and Dragon Claw are a dangerous pair, arguably the best offensive types in the game. EVs allow it to survive a little bit longer.

​

Mewtwo​

@ Choice Specs
Timid
42 HP/252 SpA/216 Spe
Aura Sphere
Thunder
Ice Beam
Shadow Ball​

GG? Yup, pretty much. Specs Mewtwo is an absolute beast. Aura Sphere and Shadow Ball, what better coverage could you ask for? BoltBeam, except no Bolt, a stronger Thunder. Considering how many people whore out Kyogre, Thunder will prove most useful. Ice Beam kills dragons, which I outspeed. Mewtwo is probably the perfect Pokemon; bulky, offensively superior to a lot of things, and unlike Deoxys-A, he can actually take priority.
​

That's my team, please rate it =D​

Use Sleep Talk > Earthquake on Dialga, your team cant absorb status for ass lol, i also think its a MUST in ubers, so much stuff with status running around.

I also dont get Spikes in ubers at all, everything either Floats, has recover Or some form of recovery move. Stealth Rock would be more beneficial imo, at least then you can hit HO-OH, Lugia and Ray Ray. The former and latter cause you problems.

After a few battles, I'm thinking maybe I should add Deoxys-a over Mewtwo. I don't mind the fragility, especially since enemy Deoxys-a cannot abuse Sash with Spikes or SR on the field.

 

[flamehaze94]

The team has trouble in the presence of opposing Groudon. Support versions can practically stop half your team cold, not only can it set Stealth Rocks, but it can put a damper on Arceus and Palkia's switching ability by means of Toxic/Thunder Wave. Be weary of the rare SubSalac sets as well, capable of running through this team like a hot knife through butter.

The team's slow in itself, and it'll have trouble with the more offensive oriented Ubers teams.

 

[Sora_8920]

One question; Tyranitar is in Ubers? I've played Ubers only a tad so whatev. >:(

Anyway, you might want Impish on Dialga >>> Adamant, but that's all I can notice.

 

[.]

Yes, due to Tyranitar have a STAB Pursuit and Crunch, it tears things apart in ubers. Fist Plate Arceus patches that up, however.

Back in my day we would use non Ubers on an Uber team.

the main thing I hate about Ubers is that mostly everyone is either normal, psychic, flying, or dragon. That gets rlly annoying after awhile.

First off, if EQ is gone, dialga loses its main coverage. Second of all, Deoxys-D can do some stuff in the status abosrb department with Taunt.


SR is a lot better, does 50% to Ho-oh, and 25 to Lugia and Ray. Most pokes here have levitate/flying type, so it won;t do you ny good to have some spikes on there.

Here's my reply to that.

Mewtwo>>> Deoxys-A.

Mootwo. <3 Yeah, I concur here; but anyway, unless I missed something, he has Mewtwo. ;)

 

[Skip Shot]

He was thinking about putting D-a over mewtwo. both D-A's suck D-A can;t pull off as much of a sweep as Mewtwo, since MT can take more hits.
