    Hi, since I'm still pretty new to team making, i was wondering if anyone could give me help on finding a 6th member for my team as well as rating it. It is a sunny day team focused in the OU tier.

    1. Charizard
    Ability-Solar Power
    Item-Charizardite Y
    Moves- Fire Blast, Solar Beam, Focus Blast, Roost
    2. Venasaur
    Ability-Chlorophyll
    Item-Black Sludge
    Moves- Sunny Day, Sleep Powder, Solar Beam, Growth
    3. Heatran
    Ability-Flash Fire
    Item-Balloon
    Moves- Fire Blast, Magma Storm, Sunny Day, Earth Power
    4. Florges
    Ability-Flower Veil
    Item- Heat Rock
    Moves- Aromatherapy, Sunny Day, Solar Beam, Moonblast
    5. Tentacruel
    Ability-Liquid Ooze
    Item- Black Sludge
    Moves- Sludge Bomb, Rapid Spin, Toxic Spikes, Scald
     
    EVs/natures would be appreciated here.

    Charizard should be Timid or Modest with 4 Def/252 SAtk/252 Spe.

    Having Solar Beam as a sole offensive move is rather bad for Venusaur, since it's currently walled by Steels. It's trying to accomplish too much, tbh:
    -Solar Beam/Energy Ball/Giga Drain
    -Sludge Bomb
    -Hidden Power (Fire)/Earthquake
    -Sleep Powder/Synthesis/Sunny Day/Growth
    Nature: Modest/Rash
    EVs: 28 HP/252 SAtk/228 Spe
    Item: Life Orb
    Ability: Chlorophyll

    Heatran has more coverage options than just Magma Storm and Fire Blast:
    -Lava Plume
    -Protect
    -Taunt/Roar/Stealth Rock
    -Toxic/Will-o-Wisp
    Nature: Calm
    EVs: 248 HP/220 SDef/40 Spe
    Item: Leftovers

    or
    -Substitute
    -Toxic
    -Lava Plume/Fire Blast/Flamethrower
    -Protect/Earth Power
    Nature: Timid
    EVs: 252 SAtk/12 SDef/244 Spe
    Item: Leftovers

    or
    -Overheat/Fire Blast
    -Flash Cannon
    -Stone Edge/Earth Power
    -Flamethrower/Fire Blast/Hidden Power (Ice)
    Nature: Modest
    EVs: 252 SAtk/4 SDef/252 Spe
    Item: Choice Scarf

    Florges is outclassed by Sylveon and Clefable, who have more useful abilities while still providing the same support Florges does. Not even Solar Beam can save Florges from this predicament:

    Sylveon:
    -Wish
    -Protect
    -Hyper Voice
    -Heal Bell/Calm Mind
    Nature: Bold
    EVs: 252 HP/216 Def/40 SDef
    Item: Leftovers
    Ability: Pixilate

    Clefable:
    -Calm Mind/Stealth Rock
    -Moonblast
    -Stored Power/Flamethrower
    -Soft-Boiled/Moonlight
    Nature: Bold
    EVs: 252 HP/252 Def/4 SDef
    Item: Life Orb/Leftovers
    Ability: Magic Guard/Unaware

    or
    -Wish
    -Protect
    -Moonblast
    -Heal Bell/Aromatherapy/Thunder Wave
    Nature: Bold
    EVs: 252 HP/252 Def/4 SDef
    Item: Leftovers
    Ability: Unaware

    or
    -Moonblast
    -Fire Blast
    -Thunder Wave
    -Soft-Boiled/Moonlight
    Nature: Modest
    EVs: 252 HP/4 Def/252 SAtk
    Item: Life Orb
    Ability: Magic Guard

    Excadrill is the Rapid Spinner to turn to this generation because of its sheer offensive presence, which Tentacruel lacks:
    -Earthquake
    -Iron Head
    -Rapid Spin
    -Rock Slide/Stealth Rock
    Nature: Adamant
    EVs: 252 Atk/4 Def/252 Spe
    Item: Leftovers/Air Balloon
    Ability: Mold Breaker

    or
    -Earthquake
    -Iron Head
    -Rock Slide
    -Rapid Spin
    Nature: Adamant/Jolly
    EVs: 252 Atk/4 Def/252 Spe (Choice Scarf) or 120 HP/136 Atk/252 SDef (Assault Vest; Adamant only)
    Item: Choice Scarf/Assault Vest
    Ability: Mold Breaker

    Edit: for the last slot, you could use Speed Deoxys as a lead sun inducer:
    -Sunny Day
    -Taunt
    -Stealth Rock
    -Fire Punch/Superpower/Knock Off/Psycho Boost
    Nature: Jolly/Timid
    EVs: 252 HP/4 Def/252 Spe
    Item: Heat Rock/Focus Sash
