Seems Off

[JesteR]

So, I created this team awhile back, and I went to use it today. It seemed a bit off, but that might be because it's been awhile since I've battled competitively.

Spoiler:

Sableye (M) @ Leftovers
Ability: Prankster
Shiny: Yes
EVs: 252 HP / 4 Def / 252 SpD
Calm Nature
- Recover
- Will-O-Wisp
- Taunt
- Foul Play

Goodra @ Life Orb
Ability: Sap Sipper
EVs: 72 HP / 8 Def / 252 SpA / 176 Spe
Timid Nature
- Draco Meteor
- Fire Blast
- Ice Beam
- Protect

Slowbro @ Leftovers
Ability: Regenerator
EVs: 252 HP / 252 Def / 4 SpD
Bold Nature
- Scald
- Ice Beam
- Slack Off
- Fire Blast

Forretress @ Leftovers
Ability: Sturdy
EVs: 248 HP / 8 Def / 252 SpD
Calm Nature
- Rapid Spin
- Spikes
- Toxic
- Gyro Ball

Talonflame @ Leftovers

What do you guys think?

 

[Nah]

Tbh I'd get rid of Forretress. It's nice that it can both lay down an clear away hazards, but it gets worn down really easily and has zero offensive presence. I think that defensive Empoleon is a bit better of a choice.

Empoleon @ Leftovers
Ability: Torrent
EVs: 248 HP / 8 Def / 252 SpD
Calm Nature
- Scald
- Toxic
- Stealth Rock/Protect
- Defog

I get the feeling that this is a sorta semi-stall team, right? If so Goodra isn't exactly what I'd call the best choice for your team's sweeper. Garchomp would be better in that slot imo 9it also gives an electric immunity; Slowbro/Empoleon/Mega Venu can handle its weaknesses for the most part).

Garchomp @ Focus Sash/Lum Berry
Ability: Rough Skin
EVs: 252 Atk / 4 SpA / 252 Spe
Jolly Nature
- Swords Dance
- Earthquake
- Dragon Claw
- Fire Blast/Fire Fang

If you wanna free up a slot on Empoleon for Roar, you can swap Stealth Rock with that then give Garchomp SR in place of Swords Dance.

A fast spread on Goodra is pointless because 80 Speed isn't the best Speed to be at. Ice Beam also doesn't provide any noteworthy coverage, as Ice is redundant with Dragon:
-Draco Meteor/Dragon Pulse
-Fire Blast
-Sludge Bomb/Sludge Wave/Thunderbolt
-Earthquake/Muddy Water
Nature: Modest
EVs: 240 HP/252 SAtk/16 Spe
Item: Assault Vest
Ability: Sap Sipper

Otherwise, use Latios as a fast offensive Dragon:
-Draco Meteor
-Psyshock
-Hidden Power (Fire)/Surf/Earthquake
-Defog/Roost
Nature: Timid
EVs: 252 SAtk/4 SDef/252 Spe
Item: Life Orb

Swords Dance is now preferred over Bulk Up on Talonflame to stall break things faster.
