    INFORMATION
    So I've just been laddering a bit on Shoddy and having some good battles but OU is kinda boring now so I'm kind of changing between some Ubers and OU. I just started and am starting to get the hang of it(despite that D_A's Psych Up Blissey still destroys me T_T) So please help me complete this team. This team focuses more on covering each other and some stall.

    Darkrai
    Item: Choice Scarf
    Ability: Bad Dreams
    Nature: Modest
    EVs: 52 HP | 252 Special Attack | 204 Speed









    Move set:
    • Dark Void: This move induces fast sleep and shuts down big threats for a while.
    • Spacial Rend: Revenge kills Dragon-types like Rayquaza, Garchomp and Palkia.
    • Dark Pulse: Powerful STAB that will hit the Psychic's of Ubers and Giratina very hard.
    • Focus Blast: Unaccurate but disposes of pretty weakened Blissey, Tyranitar and Dialga.
    Description: My revenge killer and lead, he shuts the other team's lead with fast sleep and then comes back in to take out threats or weakened sweepers.

    Giratina
    Item: Leftovers
    Ability: Pressure
    Nature: Bold
    EVs: 252 HP | 176 Defence | 78 Special Defence









    Move set:
    • Will-O-Wisp : Burns powerful physical threats that want to destroy this team.
    • Rest : Giratina doesn't get a instant recovery move so Rest can fill in for the time being. Recovers health and blocks status.
    • Sleep Talk : The only way Giratina can do something while dozing off. Fires off WoW and Dragon Pulse.
    • Dragon Pulse : Reliable STAB but with no EV's it isn't doing too much. Still useful for hitting Dragons when needed though.
    Description: An excellent wall that makes hits bounce off it. I shifted a few EV's from defence to special defence to increase survability on both sides. Burns attackers and attacks with Dragon Pulse. Quite tough to bring down.

    Groudon
    Item: Leftovers
    Ability: Drought
    Nature: Adamant
    EVs: 200 HP | 110 Defence | 112 Attack | 88 Speed








    Move set:
    • Swords Dance : Boosts his Attack to levels that are unknown to any Pokemon.
    • Thunder Wave : Spreads status around as well as letting Groudon actually go first.
    • Stone Edge : Pummels Lugia and Ho-Oh as well as doing good damage against Rayquaza.
    • Earthqauke : Good STAB that hurts Tyranitar, Metagross and Dialga.
    Description: A clean-up sweeper who uses Twave and then can sweep with SD and two attacks.

    *image removed*
    Dialga
    Item: Leftovers
    Ability: Pressure
    Nature: Quiet
    EVs: 172 HP | 200 Special Attack | 120 Speed









    Move set:
    • Draco Meteor : Anything that doesn't resist this will take a fair blow, it can OHKO the standard Giratina with Stealth Rock in play.
    • Thunderbolt : Maims Kyogre, Ho-Oh and Lugia who can get in the way of Dialga.
    • Fire Blast : Metagross takes a fair blow from this as well as Steel-types.
    • Brick Break : 2HKO's the Uber Blissey and it can also smash through screens which are used somewhat in Ubers.
    Description: Slow, I invested some EV's into HP to soften blows as Dialga is pretty bulky and I went for Quiet nature as his speed is horrible by Ubers standards.

    *image removed*
    Latias
    Item: Soul Dew
    Ability: Levitate
    Nature: Timid
    EVs: 112 HP | 204 Special Attack | 192 Speed









    Move set:
    • Calm Mind : Boosts Special Attack and Special Defence making her special stats go through the roof.
    • Dragon Pulse : Awesome STAB that can maim Dragons and also will dent anything not resistant to it.
    • Recover : When Latias is nearly fainted and needs to gain back some HP.
    • Grass Knot : Hits Kyogre for good damage as well as Tyranitar and Groudon.
    Description: Latias shall always be my favourite of the Lati twins. Her better special defence allows her to take on Palkia while Latios can't. Standard CM set.

    *image removed*
    Blissey
    Item: Leftovers
    Ability: Natural Cure
    Nature: Calm
    EVs: 4 HP | 252 Defence | 252 Special Defence









    Move set:
    • Psych Up : I've been raped twice by D_A with this move and it's very handy in Ubers where everyone is boosting stats.
    • Softboiled : Reliable recovery move when Blissey is dying.
    • Thunderbolt : After grabbing a few boosts this shall leave a dent in Kyogre and Lugia.
    • Ice Beam : Nails Dragon's on the switch in.
    Description: Uber Blissey is a nice tough Pokemon that can wall special attacks very well. Picking up boosts from Latias and CMer is what she does.

    CONCLUSION
    Please RMT....thanks guys.

    Anyway, i dont think Arceus is actually usable yet and its banned on the ladder (unless i have missed something).

    Its also pretty eh....not to have something to change the weather in your favour in ubers.

    God D_A, what's wrong with you?!
    ~Always changing threads names
    ~Always bullying noobs ;)

    Aww...crap Dunsparce weak?
    I'm taking this team apart >__<

    Arceus is usable on the ladder you just need to add the extended clause and Smogon did make an analyis for it =/ I'm not sure actually.

    Hmm....about the weather...this was one of the things that struck me while building this. Tell you what I'll ladder a bit with this and see.

    Last time I checked I had 6 RMT's not 9000 =D
    I do like peanut butter and I also like Melon but HAY?!?!?!?!
    Stop screwing up my titles T_T
     
    Arceus is Completely Banned >.> and that Latias is named Infernape???
     
    Change your disgusting CB Groudon to the ParaDancer. You need something to sweep late game.

    Groudon @ Leftovers
    Adamant
    200 HP / 112 Atk / 110 Def / 88 Spe
    -Swords Dance
    -Thunder Wave
    -Earthquake
    -Stone Edge
     
    I don't get why you chose Groudon as your weather man. You have a Dialga on this team with Thunder, so you should run Kyogre, which brings out rain for Dialga. I know very little about Ubers, but looking at Smogon's analysis and the fact that you lack a late game sweeper, either the CM, SubCm, or Offensive Ogre sets look fine.

    It's not disgsuting T_T but yeah I'll use that set as it looks better and more suitable for this team.

    D_A you love picking on my titles don't you >____<
     
    Updated and I now I have to being testing this. Tbolt instead of Thunder due to Groudon.
     
    This team is very weak to SpecsOgre, alone Latias & Blissey are not enough for stopping it. And however in this uber metagame Darkrai doesn't seem me the good available lead (ScarfTrickDeoxys-E with Super Power, Lead with Lum Berry), besides Dialga without Choice Scarf is very easy to be stopped.

    Nah I'm fine as Latias can come in on Water Spout and take nothing then CM and when Kyogre comes back in hit him for +1 Grass Knot. Darkrai works decently as it shuts down leads and can serve as a revenge killer also. Good advice but SpecsOgre is not a probelm for me and Dialga without Scarf can be stopped but its not exactly easy.
