Groudon / Kyogre / Latias / Giratina-O / Skarmory / Jirachi

Hi, this is obviously a great team and is one of the few legit 'double weather' teams that you see running around in Ubers. A great defensive backbone backed up by two very underrated Steel-types makes this a formidable team to face...


This team is weak to, in order of importance -

Mixed Dancer Rayquaza - has the potential to severely hurt or OHKO everything. Can't let it set up either.

Darkrai - simply because you have nothing to take the sleep, i guess groudon can take it after setting up sr !

Mixed Zekrom - no arceus ground or grass makes the team sad :<

Okay so these are some really obscure threats, outside of Darkrai, which will never sweep you anyway. That being said, the lack of a Rapid Spin user may be a bit worrisome against a double switching Deo-s or suicide Qwilfish, Forretress, or Tentacruel backed up by the right team...

Of course, there is literally nothing I can change that would not compromise the team in some other, greater fashion. I really like fat Choice Scarf Kyogre.

Great team.................................
