Overview

Azelf @ Focus Sash
Trait: Levitate
Nature: Naive (+Spe -SpD)
EVs: 24 Atk / 232 SpA / 252 Spe
- Taunt
- Stealth Rock
- Fire Blast
- Explosion
Standard Azelf lead. I'm using Fire Blast >>> Psychic, because I'm afraid of leads ike Metagross, Skarmory and Forretress. This is just to get SR up really early.

Bronzong @ Leftovers
Trait: Levitate
Nature: Sassy (+SpD -Spe)
EVs: 252 HP / 86 Atk / 80 Def / 92 SpD
- Trick Room
- Hypnosis
- Gyro Ball
- Earthquake
This is where my team's gameplan is meant to take action. Once Azelf goes boom, Zong comes into play and sets up Trick Room, which is my team's theme, thus being cute. This is a standard lead Zong with Trick Room >>> Stealth Rock for Trick Room-ery and since I've already got SR up, I won't need it here. I'm not using Explosion s I've only got two Trick Room setter upperers to use, and I want Zong to live long.

Slowbro @ Choice Specs
Trait: Own Tempo
Nature: Quiet (+SpA -Spe)
EVs: 236 HP / 20 Def / 252 SpA
- Trick
- Surf
- Psychic
- Fire Blast
"OMGWTF why are you using Slowbro in an OU team?" is what you may be thinking to yourself, and I'll tell you why. I needed a special sweeper that could work under Trick Room conditions, and the slowest thing in OU that is specially based is Magnezone, and that's not exctly slow enough for a Trick Room team. Slowbro plays the role of the Specs user and main special sweeper under Trick Room conditions. I was going to use Snorlax here, but for the sake of using special moves, I'm using Slowbro instead.

Sucknoir @ Leftovers
Trait: Pressure
Nature: Relaxed (+Def -Spe)
EVs: 252 HP / 252 Def / 4 SpD
- Trick Room
- Will-O-Wisp
- Pain Split
- Shadow Punch
The only reason I'm using Sucknoir >>> Rotom-A, is because of Trick Room. It's simply put, something Rotom-A doesn't have. Sucknoir is the second user of Trick Room and my defensive tank/wall/whatever you want to call it. The aim here is to set up Trick Room and possibly W-o-W the other Pokemon and switch to either Slowbro or Machamp. I'm using Shadow Punch >>> Earthquake so I have something that can take out other Sucknoir that I may encounter and Rotom-A and Azelf, which all really suck under Trick Room conditions.

Machamp @ Leftovers
Trait: No Guard
Nature: Brave (+Atk -Spe)
EVs: 252 HP / 252 Atk / 4 Def
- Bulk Up
- DynamicPunch
- Stone Edge
- ThunderPunch
This is the reason I swapped Snorlax for Slowbro. Machamp is the main sweeper for my team, being able to Bulk Up and sweep from there. Since this is under Trick Room conditions, I'm not using Payback, as not a lot will be able to outspeed him in Trick Room. After seeing that Snorlax is gone, I've realised that there is nothing that can take on status whatsoever, so I might change this to the standard ResTalk set so I can do so.

Jolteon @ Life Orb
Trait: Volt Absorb
Nature: Timid (+Spe -Atk)
EVs: 4 HP / 252 SpA / 252 Spe
- Charge Beam
- Thunderbolt
- Hidden Power (Grass)
- Shadow Ball
I kinda threw in Jolteon at the last minute, so I don't mind if I have to change it around. I was originally planning to use standard DD Gyarados here, but since when thinking about using Snorlax, I had a lack in something special so I used Jolteon instead. This is the late game sweeper, usually always used when Trick Room is out and I have nothing to set it up again, or generally so I can't lose to users of Taunt. I'm using HP Grass so in case I run into problems late game with Swampert or Tyranitar.
