OU Wi-Fi RMT​

Umm really bored with my old team, since its old so i thought ill try some new pokes out. Most of these are just random pokemons that ive always wanted to try out so i dont really know how things will go. So go on and rate =D

Azelf @ Focus Sash
Naive
4 Atk / 252 SpA / 252 Spe
~ Stealth Rock
~ Psychic
~ Explosion
~ Fire Blast

This is a standard Azelf lead, without taunt, and does what its meant to do. If i get the chance to take him back in and then bring him back later for revenge killing or ill just use him to blow things up to considerably weaken them.

Hippodown @ Leftovers
Impish
252 HP / 168 Def / 88 SpD
~ Earthquake
~ Slack Off
~ Roar
~ Stone Edge

Slack Off for instant recorvery. This works as my physical wall and can catch some pokemon on the switch with EQ/SE if they are effective.

Latias@Life Orb
Timid Nature
4 HP / 252 Sp. Atk / 252 Speed
Dragon Pulse
Surf
Calm Mind
Recover

This thing actually takes a lot of the Water / Grass / Fire / Fighting / Ground things that your Pokemon are weak to already (Like Mence), however is more Special oriented and has the ability for instant recovery and setup. The only problem to worry about now would be Pursuit. Thanks to Ooka.

Gallade @ Choice Scarf
Jolly
6 HP / 252 Atk / 252 Spe
~ Close Combat
~ Ice Punch
~ Night Slash
~ ThunderPunch

Revenge Killer, went with T-punch to take out waters.

Lucario @ Life Orb
Jolly
~ Swords Dance
~ Close Combat
~ ExtremeSpeed
~ Crunch

Standard SD LO Lucario, my late game sweeper not sure what to use in the last slot.

Blissey @ Leftovers
Bold
252 Def / 40 SpA / 216 SpD
~ Aromatherapy
~ Flamethrower
~ Thunder Wave
~ Softboiled

umm couldnt think of anything to fill in the lat slot so i stick a special sponge + cleric in to help my team. Flamethrowe for all those scizors that try to switch into me =/


Note:
This team may suck, it may be good but im here for a rate since i cant do it myself. I am very grateful for all your help and contributions to make my team better.

Changes made:
Salamence replaced for Latias.

I don't like Crunch on Mence personally I would do Roost. But of course, you decide.

I would say Crunch on Lucario to take out psychic types.

I'm starting to think Scizor is a threat to this team, and Bliss's Flamethrower won't help too much, but I don't know.

With SR, it is a OHKO. Without SR, I believe it is still a OHKO :P

Anyways, Naive/Hasty on Azelf. No need to hinder its SpA, which it needs here. With the sash, it doesn't really give a crap about its defenses anyways, so drop the one you need least.

On Mence, you can either replace Crunch for Dragon Claw or Roost. Dragon Claw for a secondary STAB move once you have lowered your SpA via Draco Meteor, or the instant recovery is nice. You can use Crunch if you would like to, though.

The main problem I see here is that you are too physical-attack based. Once Azelf does it job of suiciding, your only moves are Mence (Which with Draco dropping your SpA, not doing much with Fire Blast. Switching with SR in play won't be to kind either.), and Blissey's Flamethrower (Which I barely even count :P). I'd say either make Luke a Specs version, or swap it out for something else.

Lucario@Choice Specs
Inner Focus
Timid Nature
252 SpA/252 Spe/4 HP

• Aura Sphere
• Shadow Ball
• Vacuum Wave (For a finish on something weakened)
• HP Ice/HP Rock (Your preference really, I'd say Ice though)

Maybe even a SpecsJolt to replace it if you want (Speedy and Powerful, but very frail :P)

Jolteon@Choice Specs
Volt Absorb
Timid Nature
252 SpA/252 Spe/4 Def

• Thunderbolt
• Shadow Ball
• HP Grass/HP Ice (Grass for Swampert who walls you otherwise, Ice for Dragons)
• Baton Pass/Signal Beam (BP for scouting, Signal Beam to OHKO Celebi and hit T-Tar harder)

Salamence is going to die quickly with Stealth Rock damage, sand storm damage, and life orb recoil.

You should take Hippowdon either off your team, or make a sand team.

Or get someone to change the weather. But on your current team, that'll come off as pretty gimmicky. A 6th member like Kingdra or Starmie are good Rain Dancers.

I understand want your saying but i want Luke to be physical. Maybe i should replace my revenge killer with a different poke who's more specially based?

thanks for the rate guys.

I would replace Mence with:

Latias@Life Orb
Timid Nature
4 HP / 252 Sp. Atk / 252 Speed
Dragon Pulse
Surf
Calm Mind
Recover


This thing actually takes a lot of the Water / Grass / Fire / Fighting / Ground things that your Pokemon are weak to already (Like Mence), however is more Special oriented and has the ability for instant recovery and setup. The only problem you have to worry about now would be Pursuit.

Ill use this and see how it works :D
thanks

i'd be concerned on how you plan on handling swampert. latios should fair well but as soon as it's gone, your team is going to struggle.

 

[Ooka]

You could opt for Grass Knot on Zelf, or possibly Leaf Blade on Gallade, so you can still deal with waters, you just won't be hitting Tenta or Gyara as hard as you would with Thunder Punch.

 

[Samson]

if you give leaf blade a try, you can drop night slash/thunder punch for stone edge or psycho cut. stone edge does hard damage to gyara and others while psycho cut provides STAB against gyara when in KO range and nearly OHKOs tenta who probably thinks it can outspeed. you already hit dragons and general flying types w/ ipunch. tpunch is just dead weight imo. most cresselia will giggle at night slash and rotom will either burn/paralyze him or will be a scarf set with shadowball.

 

[.]

Leaf Blade sucks. Neutral Close Combat hits harder on everything bar Tentacruel and Gyarados, both of whom take Thunderpunch. I don't see Swampert being threatening at all, since Latias...uh, I don't know...sets up on it?

 

[Samson]

sure, feel free to say it sucks because of it's typing and inferiority to CC, but it still has practical usage especially when tpunch can be replaced for something more productive.

mentioning CC when it already has CC is pretty much moot when we both understand the need for occupying moves is to break walls and cover set ups. hey, let's get my revenge killer OHKOd in a situation where it could usually OHKO. defense drops are pro!

but i guess this all just goes back to the point that gallade isn't the best idea for a scarfmon. fails to provide scouting function and doesn't have a practical ability.

and i think you missed the part where i said as soon as latios is gone. his latios has no hp investment and has life orb. if it's going to presumably come in on swampert so early in the game (as most do), it is immediately going to be a target.
