Aggressive to me means offense so here is some birdspam offense for you. Fletchinder + braviary make the birdspam core, american bird weakening fletchinder checks through constant u-turning and superpower when necessary. U-turn and roost on braviary cause return only hits 2 mons on RU that brave bird doesnt (eel and lanturn, eel is 2hkod by LO brave bird after rocks and lanturn is really uncommon) plus u-turn provides good pivoting for the rest team. Added seismitoad over mega steelix cause it helps with a pretty annoying water weakness the team had with steelix on the team and being a really great mon all in all, flygon added for the most reliable hazard remover in the tier, virizion to help with opposing bulky waters. The last slot was a choice between having a secondary fighting type check and ice resist and something to revenge kill durant, delphox provides that and being a really great scarfer nowadays.

Opposing fletchinder could be annoying so your fletch and a healthy seismitoad should be good for that, watch out for durant. Hope you enjoy.

MrAldo you could probably run Sharp Beak over Life Orb on Braviary because the 10% recoil really adds up along with Brave Bird recoil and makes it so that you have to Roost a lot to recover your health and Sharp Beak's power difference isn't too big, although Superpower becomes a bit weaker.

I know this contradicts my first point but I would consider replacing Braviary altogether in favor of Durant. I know the idea of the team is meant to be Bird Spam, but at the moment Cinccino really fucks up your team. Seriously, Cinccino is actually really common on the ladder and has an easy time sweeping if Delphox is paralyzed or KOed or if Virizion is a bit weakened. Even if it doesn't sweep it will do a lot of damage if played right (which they usually aren't but I digress). Since the idea of Braviary was to get momentum and weaken Steel-types, All-out Attacker Durant would be a good fit, as it gives you a check to Cinccino (lol I know but it's kinda needed) and a way to weaken Steel-types while still maintaining momentum with Baton Pass. It's also a bit faster, which is nice.

thnx lighthouses :)

 

[DaRizzleTheMan]

Cinccino isn't even a serious threat anyway

I disagree with Cincinno being a problem when you have fletch and delphox to revenge kill at worst, in the end cincinno is one of those mons that slip your mind when teambuilding cause... it is cincinno, a bad mon on its own and when building offense it always managed to screw you over. I sincerely dont consider at all realistically, maybe a bad habit but the team has the emergency buttons to handle it.

Durant gets flinched by king's rock shit anyways :V

Your suggestion all around though and I like it, but braviary is a cool and I was tired of using durant there :[

Fair enough I guess, although opposing Cinccinos are still enough to make me sit up a little straighter and play more carefully when using that team. Don't forget about Sharp Beak > Life Orb though; not having that extra recoil is really nice. Also… (Sharp Beak is slashed on the Physical Attacker set)

Teambuilding Process

Okay so as you requested I started out with Hone Claws Durant, who is a monster in this metagame. Durant has a ton of trouble with Bulky Waters and Steel-types, so to fix mostly the latter I added in a cool option: Gastrodon. This gives you a nice switch-in to Steel and some Water-types while acting as a good physical wall for stuff like Tyrantrum. After that, I decided to add Aromatisse, which supports the team with Wish and Heal Bell while walling stuff like Sneasel, Scrafty, and Hitmonlee. The team needed a backup answer to Fire-types with Grass coverage moves and a Stealth Rocker, so Mega-Camerupt fills that role nicely and also benefits from Aroma's Wish support. I needed a revenge killer and a check to Venomoth so I went with Choice Scarf Braviary with Sleep Talk over Superpower. That may seem crazy but Venomoth is a BIG threat right now (it also helps check Amoonguss) and the rest of the team already handles Steel- and Rock-types nicely except for Aromatisse. Finally, I needed some sort of win condition. I looked around for a long time and finally settled on Virizion, as it could check some extra stuff like Mola and set up on it. Stone Edge over Zen Headbutt since it hits Sigi and defensive Flying-types as well as Delphox on the switch.

Overall I really like how this team plays, it has a lot of defensive synergy and any of the Pokemon can put in work if needed (that's one reason why I like Gastrodon > Alomomola on this team). If you have any edits that you want to make please feel free to suggest changes! I've only played a couple games with it but it's already done really well, hope you enjoy it XenoTech N! ^.^

Thanks for the team man, I'm new to RU so I can't really tell if something is good or bad (lol rip me). I'll definitely give it a try and see how it goes. Thanks again!

Requesting Mega Camerupt balance, with a volt turn core, and hazard removal+hazard stacking, and possibly a way or two to break stall :), oh and it should have a decent defensive core and possibly a taunt user or two. Enjoy ~ MrAldo , gorex , Natural Talent. Also I'll just throw it out there that Spirit's RU QuickStall is one of my favorite RU teams *hint hint

:^)

The volt-turn tbh is just something I was thinking of to help get Mega Camerupt in easily and exploit hazards. It's not strictly necessary tbh,if not anything else maybe have some team members that bait in easy targets for a double switch in to Mega Camerupt?

Not too many mons get volt turn and with i being hazard stack it limits a lot of team building, but i put an example above.

 

[eden]

oh, maybe change it from full out hazard stack to just SR+defogger? I didn't mean to give such a weird request :x. The example looks pretty decent though tbh.

 

[lighthouses]

I can try and make something with the original request if you want

 

[ChilliTacos]

If anyone still comes here. I would love to request a soike stacking team with Cm Meloetta. (idc if its offensive cm or sub cm) I would like it to be a hazzard stacking team with either one fo the. So yh looking for a team thats offensive since i mostly make my teams into stall by accidents. So yh hopefully you will accept my request and build a team around it ^.^

do you want one like the sample thing i posted up? I can just plug in the sets or make another one to your liking

 

[Golden Electivire]

Hey, now before i say anything, it hurts to say this (it really does) but i requested a volt turn team with jolt + braviary + mega glalie on the 30 august and it has not been posted yet. I just wanna know if it is in construction or maybe you guys just missed because i had no sets that could be displayed. I would appreciate it if you could let me know :)

 

[lighthouses]

Let me be blunt here, i'm the only one building(ocasionally NT and Scythe will put out some teams as well) i'm looking to getting someone to host a new thread with new builders so please be patient, it's only natural i'm gonna miss some of the requests :(
I have the rest of the day free now so i'll get to some of them that aren't done yet like the one above

This is a pretty decent team and fits your description alright. Durant hits all types of threats and can hit stall pretty hard in conjunction with meloetta weakening everything. Tyrantrum Can work decently against offense and is our Fletchinder Check. Rotom Picks up momentum with volt switch and then camerupt is your rocker. Enjoy!

Also plugged in the team for the sample i was giving.

No, I said ask him if he is willing to give it up, if you pm'd him on the forum and he didn't answer in spite of having been on a couple times or something, then take the project, but idk how a different host is going to produce teams more efficiently if its the same number of people building at the same rate.

I wanted to run sub bulk up bravirary with this one so i can have an answer to every common playstyle with the first 3 mons(Jolteon > offense, Glalie > Balance and Braviary > Stall). Choice of hidden power on jolteon comes from preference with ice hiting flygon and grass hiting gastrodon and seismitoad. These 3 are easilly dealt with by a scarfers(notably emboar and tyrantrum) so i got seismitoad as the stealth rocker since it's able to reliably handle both of those as well as durant, obvious flygon is obvious as usual since it' the only defoger that doesn't suck. Last slot i wanted a choice scarfer that could pivot around to help with getting mega glalie in, options were:medicham/durant... thats it, since i don't really consider rotom-mow as an option, so i went with durant as it lures in every single setup fodder for braviary on the tier.

Decided to run calm mind colbur melo with this one as i feel like it's better than the subcm set but that just comes down to personal preference, gurdurr is the perfect partner to any variant of meloetta as it's able to beat/set up on basically all of melo's checks, while melo can set up on gurdurr's checks etc etc. Meloetta hates hazards, mainly toxic spikes, so i had to get a spinner(seeing as how you wanted to run spikes stack) so i got kabutops as it's a nice fletchinder answer which is kinda annoying for the other members as well as helping with scarf fire types and such, obviously i need stealth rocks and mega steelix seemed to fit just fine with the other members, wasn't feeling too safe versus things like durant/virizion/hitmonlee and i still needed the spikes part of the team, decided to go with TANK weezing as it's actually a pretty cool fighting check, being able to handle a couple of very problematic mons like durant etc, + i couldn't exactly just run qwilfish since i already have 2 ground weak mons and no resists so there's that. Now on the last slot i needed a psychic check i was torn between life orb sneasel or choice band scrafty, so i just decided to leave both there for you to choose since i can't handle the pressure....
