Introduction

Uh hello, this is scotti and today I am laddering in uu on pokemon showdown.... Anyway, so school is about to start up again and i decided to make an rmt before i get way to busy. I built this team in a few minutes, but it ended up being extremely good. My goal with this team was to peak number 1. Sadly, that didn't work out as I got to around 1580 and got haxed badly. I went down to 1540 and I decided that it would be too much of an hassle to try and get to 1600. In the end I rmt'd the team before getting number 1, but who cares the ladder sucks. Anyway onto the rmt.
Teambuilding Process

I wanted to make a hazard stacking team around omastar after seeing New breeds RU rmt. Omastar overall is a really cool pokemon and one of the best hazard stacking mons in the tier.

During my first round of LC Open I found out misdreavus was a god. Once it got banned from LC, I decided maybe it might be some what good in NU. I open mu damage calc and found out that defensive miss spinblocked the entire tier, and so I had to add it. I also wanted to use cacturne after seeing either Zebraiken or FLCL (forgot which one) use a trick room team with cacturne.

Goomy told me that double dance rhydon destroys stall, and so I used it. Just saying it only destroys stall that lack tangela. In the end I changed it to swords dance + 3 attack, because I needed away to defeat stall with tangela.

I decided to use Khan, because Fake Out + Hazards damage rack up pretty fast. Khan also helped against gatr who could be a huge problem for my team if cacture was dead.

I added Mesprit, because I really just wanted to use healing wish lel. Also I get rekt by Will-o-wisp so I could use something that could get rid of it and doesn't care about it.


The Squad



flcl so smart (Omastar) @ Focus Sash
Ability: Weak Armor
EVs: 4 HP / 252 SpA / 252 Spe
Timid Nature
- Surf
- Stealth Rock
- Spikes
- Icy Wind

Ok this here is the god omastar set. The goal of the team is to hazard stack and lead omastar does this easily. I got the idea of using lead omastar from seeing new breed ru rmt. The set is pretty much the same, but Icy Wind > Ice Beam. I made the change once I saw flcl use Icy Wind on his, so I was like thats a good idea and I stole it I: Anyway weak armor are for mons that attack me on the physical side and give me a speed boost.


aerow (Misdreavus) @ Eviolite
Ability: Levitate
EVs: 252 HP / 252 Def / 4 SpD
Bold Nature
- Pain Split
- Shadow Ball
- Will-O-Wisp
- Taunt

What is a spiritomb..... seriously. Misdreavus is a god at spinblocking. It spinblocks every mon in the tier easily. Taunt is mostly for cryogonals that carry recover. Another reason for taunt is that this team has problems with stall sometimes, so taunt comes in handy for that reason. I got the idea from the set from the ou counterpart stall breaking gengar. This is also good against fighting mons as it eats knock off's for days.


giz da lord (Cacturne) @ Life Orb
Ability: Water Absorb
EVs: 4 HP / 252 Atk / 252 Spe
Adamant Nature
- Swords Dance
- Drain Punch
- Sucker Punch
- Seed Bomb

One of the strongest mons in NU imo. Base 115, SD, Life orb Sucker Punch does a lot of damage to anything. With shiftry gone this Grass Dark type is the best in the tier. I most use this thing to sweep late game or punch hole in my opponents team. Another great thing about cacturne is that it is one of the best gatr checks in the tier. It basically forces the gatr user not to aqua jet or waterfall thanks to water absorb. Not only that, because you have sucker punch he has to take the sucker punch damage to damage you. Cacturne is suprisingly a great mon and should be used a lot more.


the goomy <3 (Rhydon) @ Eviolite
Ability: Rock Head
EVs: 84 HP / 252 Atk / 172 Spe
Adamant Nature
- Swords Dance
- Earthquake
- Stone Edge
- Megahorn

This thing destroys stall teams. Also shoutout to The Goomy for showing me the power of double dance rhydon. This used to be double dance rhydon, but tangela is a threat. I changed it to SD + 3 Attacks so it could destroy tangela and stall. This thing is also my counter to Belly Drum slurpuff, and normal spam. It also keeps me from getting completely destroyed by mons on fire spam. The ev spread allows me to outpace tangela, which is a huge threat to this team. A godly mon and set right here.​



cap the god (Kangaskhan) (F) @ Silk Scarf
Ability: Scrappy
Happiness: 0
EVs: 252 Atk / 4 SpD / 252 Spe
Adamant Nature
- Fake Out
- Sucker Punch
- Frustration
- Drain Punch

Khan is here to abuse hazards + fake out damage. Khan is an extremely good mon. Fake out helps out with soo many threats it is unreal. Basically Fake out + Sucker Punch + Hazards damage is a good way to weaken mons on offensive and defensive team alike. Khan is also like the destroyer of offense with hazards up. Frustration also punches holes in stall teams, however you can also use double edge. The down side to double edge is that if the opponent gets a few layer of hazards up, Khan will die quickly.


glass glaceon (Mesprit) @ Life Orb
Ability: Levitate
EVs: 16 HP / 252 SpA / 240 Spe
Modest Nature
- Psyshock
- Ice Beam
- Dazzling Gleam
- Healing Wish

Finally you have my last mon mesprit. Mesprit is a god in this tier. You don't know what it is going to do. It can run Banded, scarf, AV, life, mixed, and rocks. Mes is one of the most versatile mons in the tier and that is why it was my last choice. Ok the real reason I pick it was, because healing wish is soo fun to abuse. I healing wish cacture, missy, khan, omastar, rhydon, I healing wish EVERYTHING. Seriously speaking, mes helps against fighting mons and help out against stall with psyshock. The ev's let me hit hard, give me some extra bulk, and out speed gatr. Healing Wish is most used on khan or cacturne, because sometimes I have to use Cacturne early game.
Conclusion
I really wanted to make a quick rmt before school started, so I pick one of my good teams for this occasion. I am probably going to start becoming really busy, but I am still going to come on once in awhile (mostly because I am still in grand slam). Anyway I hope you enjoyed, so plz leave a rate, comment, and lets exceed the like goal of 5000000000000000000000000000000000000000000. I luv u guys <3

Whitest Mexican Alive
Powerful team scotti. :]

One issue I can see if fire spam with defog support. :S

Rhydon can't reliably switch in over and over, so it needs to come in after it kills something and that can be troublesome (Power Herb Solarbeam Rapidash is real as shit)

One way to remedy this is to change Kanga to AV > Silk Scarf. Other than that solid team.

Defog is really uncommon and hazard stacking is amazing in NU right now. :S

I'm glad I convinced you to get into NU. :] gj

Hey scotti, nice team :)

I like the idea of using Misdreavus over Mismagius for a bulkier Ghost-type that can stallbreak, but I think a faster spread might benefit your team more as Ice Punch Swords Dance Feraligatr seems really annoying to your team at the moment:



Misdreavus @ Eviolite
Ability: Levitate
EVs: 248 HP / 204 Def / 56 Spe
Timid Nature
IVs: 0 Atk
- Shadow Ball
- Taunt
- Will-O-Wisp
- Pain Split

56 Speed EVs with a Timid Nature allows Misdreavus to outspeed 64 HP / 252 Atk / 196 Spe variants of Feraligatr and allows Misdreavus to Taunt it before it gets to Swords Dance and to cripple it with Will-O-Wisp before it does too much damage to you. You could also go with a even faster spread of 248 HP / 136 Def / 124 Spe with a Timid Nature to outspeed Max Speed Adamant Feraligatr and Max Speed Modest Mesprit, but I would only use this spread if you find Max Speed Feraligatr to be more common than the bulkier spreads. Using a faster EV spread will also allow you to outspeed some leads such as Omastar, Crustle, Kricketune, Golem, and Spikes Cacturne and prevent them from setting up entry hazards!

I am also going to suggest you to run Energy Ball > Ice Beam on Mesprit as it will gives you better coverage overall as Mesprit will now be able to do more damage to Feraligatr (giving you another check to it), Seismitoad, and Rhydon. Mesprit shouldn't really miss having Ice Beam as the stuff that Mesprit would use it against are 2HKOed by Psychic and Dazzling Gleam anyway.

Hope I helped!
 
Hey scotti ^.^. Backing up Soulgazer 's changes but also feel that the team is pretty weak to opposing dark types. Stuff like opposing SD Cacturne, Liepard, or SD Pawniards can do a lot of work, so I do somewhat worry. I do realize that you have stuff to somewhat check each, but they are rather difficult for you to deal with. For this reason I reccomend running Bulk Up Gurdurr over Rhydon. I feel that you aren't really that weak to flying types due to insane priority across the board, SR, etc. and just feel that Gurdurr can somewhat nullify the threat that Dark types pose to you!

Outside of that cool team! You rekt me with it earlier but I suck so that means nothing!!! ^.^

AV Khan looks like a great suggestion, and I would try it out once I get the chance. Fire spam really is a threat to this team, and I usually have to play well around it. This change can work really well. Ty fren :]

These changes seem to be really good. I already made both changes as they seem to be really well. I don't even know why I ran ice beam on mesprit lel. Ty for the rate soul :]

Bulk Up Gurdurr seems like a cool mon, though it creates a huge weakness to BD Slurpuff. Rhydon is my main check to slurpuff as it can live a +6 Play Rough. Without it I could very well get swept'd by slurpuff. The only mon I could really replace for gurdurr is khan, but khan offers a lot of support in general with fake out. I will try gurdurr out anyway, because it might help better overall. Ty for the rate :]
