​
This is bulky offense team that uses the core of Mega Lucario and Choice Band Tyranitar to break through teams. Choice Scarf Landorus-T provides a nice pivot and way of Speed control. Celesteela+Arceus-Water checks the most common variants of Primal Groudon as well as a majority of physical threats like Mega Salamence and Rayquaza. Lastly, Primal Groudon is added to the team as a solid check to Xerneas and also provide Stealth Rock support.

*MMX Calcs*

252+ SpA Mewtwo-Mega-X Thunderbolt vs. 252 HP / 0 SpD Arceus-Water: 210-248 (47.2 - 55.8%) -- 78.5% chance to 2HKO (we Should beat it 1v1)

144 Atk Mewtwo-Mega-X Thunder Punch vs. 252 HP / 4 Def Celesteela: 202-238 (50.7 - 59.7%) -- 85.5% chance to 2HKO after Leftovers recovery (Should beat it 1v1)

252+ SpA Mewtwo-Mega-X Aura Sphere vs. 188 HP / 252+ SpD Groudon-Primal: 127-150 (32.7 - 38.6%) -- 99.4% chance to 3HKO (Good chip :3)

252+ SpA Mewtwo-Mega-X Ice Beam vs. 188 HP / 252+ SpD Groudon-Primal: 95-112 (24.4 - 28.8%) -- 99.5% chance to 4HKO (Solid Chip :3)

252+ Atk Landorus-Therian Earthquake vs. 0 HP / 0 Def Mewtwo-Mega-X: 195-229 (55.2 - 64.8%) -- guaranteed 2HKO

252+ Atk Lucario Bullet Punch vs. 0 HP / 0 Def Mewtwo-Mega-X: 64-76 (18.1 - 21.5%) -- possible 5HKO

(21.5 + 64.8 = 86.3 give at least one rocks switch in even with high rolls. )

252+ SpA Mewtwo-Mega-X Aura Sphere vs. 0 HP / 0 SpD Lucario: 438-516 (155.8 - 183.6%) -- guaranteed OHKO (What Lucario?)

252+ SpA Mewtwo-Mega-X Aura Sphere vs. 4 HP / 0 SpD Tyranitar in Sand: 436-516 (127.4 - 150.8%) -- guaranteed OHKO (Apparently I just took sand damage)

*Dialga Calcs*

252+ SpA Dialga Earth Power vs. 4 HP / 0 SpD Tyranitar in Sand: 160-190 (46.7 - 55.5%) -- 74.2% chance to 2HKO (Crunch hurts but we should beat it 1v1)

252+ SpA Dialga Draco Meteor vs. 4 HP / 0 SpD Landorus-Therian: 313-369 (97.8 - 115.3%) -- 87.5% chance to OHKO (Ideally we hit it on a swich so something else kills it but we can go for the roll if we need to.)

252+ SpA Dialga Earth Power vs. 0 HP / 0 SpD Lucario-Mega: 322-380 (114.5 - 135.2%) -- guaranteed OHKO (Luke can't switch in and in practical use we can prevent a swords dance)

252+ SpA Dialga Fire Blast vs. 252 HP / 252+ SpD Celesteela: 210-248 (52.7 - 62.3%) -- 99.6% chance to 2HKO after Leftovers recovery (We can try to do a chunk and switch out after leach seed on obvious protect.)

252+ SpA Dialga Earth Power vs. 188 HP / 252+ SpD Groudon-Primal: 186-220 (47.9 - 56.7%) -- 88.3% chance to 2HKO (We're faster do we always beat Pdon 1v1 since draco is stronger which we can go for on the second turn. )

*We all know zygarde's bulk, so I'll be lazy and not do calc for him :3

The main mon in this core is MMX as it Ohko's or 2hko's everything barring bad roles, Celesteela if it goes for leach seed, and Groudon-Primal. It out speeds everything besides scarf lando which it kills in return if it's still relatively healthy. It carries toxic to hit P-dons and Arceus-waters on switches, That puts's P-Don on a timer and ensure's a 2hko on arceus-water. Dialga can prevent Luke set up and has a way of dealing with every other mon 1v1 baring celesteela, which it can still chunk for damage. It out speeds half the team as well. Zygarde-C switchis into most of the team and can cripple things with glare allowing dialga and MMX to out speed things and k-o them. It can phase luke or kill it if got weakened by something and rest increases it's life span. Either Leftovers or chesto berry work against this core but if I was only bringing three mons to fight six I would bring chesto.

P.S. First time doing this so if I broke a rule sorry.

Thanks for participating but:
The 2HKOes that Mega Mewtwo X gets by running that set are as same as running the usual, Low Kick/Ice Beam/ Stone Edge/ Taunt set. I'd make it the usual set instead cause that doesn't really make Mewtwo better at what it does and the set you posted is somewhat gimmicky.

Mixed RP Primal Groudon+Ferrothorn

Groudon-Primal @ Red Orb
Ability: Desolate Land
EVs: 188 Atk / 252 SpA / 68 Spe
Rash Nature
IVs: 30 Atk
- Rock Polish
- Hidden Power [Ice]
- Fire Blast
- Precipice Blades

Ferrothorn @ Leftovers
Ability: Iron Barbs
EVs: 252 HP / 252 Def
Impish Nature
IVs: 0 Spe
- Leech Seed
- Gyro Ball
- Toxic
- Protect

Mixed RP Primal Groudon stood out to me immediately, because once it sets up with a Polish, it OHKOs Mega Lucario, Celesteela, Landorus-T, and Tyranitar. Its speed EVs are also set up to outspeed everything on the team after a Polish. The biggest threat to it however is Arceus-Water, which Ferrothorn easily walls and is able to either kill it or Leech Seed+Protect whatever switches in. It's also physically defensive, allowing it to take much more hits from Tyranitar and Lando-T, if it needs to.

Zygarde @ Leftovers
Ability: Power Construct
EVs: 252 HP / 252 Def / 4 Spe
Impish Nature
- Coil
- Substitute
- Thousand Arrows
- Glare

Groudon-Primal @ Red Orb
Ability: Desolate Land
EVs: 252 HP / 228 SpD / 28 Spe
Careful Nature
- Stealth Rock
- Precipice Blades
- Fire Punch
- Toxic

This zygarde set can single handedly take on 5 out of 6 mons on the team, only thing stoping it is waterceus. The P-Don set is nice becuase most pdons usually run either toxic or a fire move but in this case we have both, this alows to take on the steels in the tier (in this case celesteela) while aslo being able to lure in waterceus and go for a surpise toxic or vice versa with the steels (revealing toxic then going for the fire move). Once supportceus is put on a timer, nothing is stopping a well played zygarde.

e: Another thing to point is the team has no access to status healing making zygardes glare spamming so much easier and effective + sassy lava plume is alwyas another option for pdon.

Sets :
Ferrothorn @ Leftovers
Ability: Iron Barbs
EVs: 252 HP / 252 Def
Impish Nature
IVs: 0 Spe
- Leech Seed
- Spikes
- Power Whip
- Protect

Arceus-Ground @ Earth Plate
Ability: Multitype
EVs: 252 HP / 60 Def / 196 Spe
Timid Nature
IVs: 0 Atk
- Ice Beam
- Judgment
- Recover
- Stealth Rock

This core simply autowins since Ferrothorn walls steela+waterceus+lando while groundceus takes down luke+ttar+pdon .
 
lunala.gif


Lunala @ Psychium Z
Ability: Shadow Shield
EVs: 4 HP / 252 SpA / 252 Spe
Modest Nature
- Hypnosis
- Moongeist Beam
- Focus Blast
- Calm Mind

No choiced Lunala w/ focus blast and CM blows off the whole team. I'd use Z Hypno here because crunch lucario can be a really efficient revenge killer but ghostium Z do at very least 1 kill.
Not much to say here 'cause i don't really need to and that's only 1 mon.
Something that can abuse of the Tyranitar / Waterceus removal from lunala like Ho-Oh should be a great partner tho.

GHOSTCEUS+MEGA-LUCARIO+YVELTAL

Arceus-Ghost @ Ghostium Z
Ability: Multitype
EVs: 252 Atk / 4 SpD / 252 Spe
Jolly Nature
- Swords Dance
- Shadow Force
- Brick Break
- Recover

Lucario-Mega @ Lucarionite
Ability: Adaptability
EVs: 252 Atk / 4 SpD / 252 Spe
Jolly Nature
- Swords Dance
- Close Combat
- Bullet Punch
- Iron Tail/Stone Edge

Yveltal @ Life Orb
Ability: Dark Aura
EVs: 4 Atk / 252 SpA / 252 Spe
Hasty Nature
- Dark Pulse
- Oblivion Wing
- Taunt
- Sucker Punch

This is just a basic HO core, SD Lucario and SD Ghostecus (especially the latter) both destroy this team, since lucario sweeps with a bit of prior damage on lando and ghostceus can set up to +2 or even +4 easily thanks to recover. The last slot on lucario doesn't matter vs this team. Yveltal is just a staple that makes lando and pdon not being able to just spam ground type attacks, and also helps dealing with ghost types (even though there isn't one on that team)

My man Holy Break! because this sort of combination works wonders in tandem with stall oriented teams, especially when confronting a squad with no hazard control.
