ORAS OU Mega-Diancie Team RMT

[megaman027]

Mega-Diancie is my favorite new mega introduce in ORAS,so I wanted to build a team around it. With the hug boost Mega-Diancie got in Sp.attack,Attack and Speed and also access to Rock Polish,I thought it would make an excellent sweeper.

Diancie @ Diancite
Ability: Clear Body
EVs: 64 HP / 16 Atk / 252 SpA / 176 Spe
Rash Nature
- Moonblast
- Rock Polish
- Earth Power
- Diamond Storm

Diancie has very limited switch ins in the OU tier and with Rock Polish doubling it's already amazing speed it out speeds majority of the mons in OU. MoonBlast 2hitko almost every mon in the tier. Earth Power is to hit steel types such as Heatran and Excadrill. Diamond Storm is for hit those bulky special walls such as Chansey and Clefable and being able to 3hitko them.With the 176 evs in speed after mega-evolving you will be able to out speed some of the slower mons making easy to get kills before setting up Rock Polish.

Magnezone @ Air Balloon
Ability: Magnet Pull
EVs: 172 HP / 252 SpA / 84 Spe
Modest Nature
- Thunderbolt
- Volt Switch
- Flash Cannon
- Hidden Power [Fire]

With Diancie being walled by bulky steel types such as Skarmory and Ferrothorn I needed a solution to them and Magnezone fitted perfectly,with it's Magnet Pull ability it's able to trap and kill those bulky steel those with Hp (fire) and with 84 speed evs it's able to speed tie with Skarmory.With the Air Ballon Magnezone get's that Immunity to ground type attacks.

Ferrothorn @ Leftovers
Ability: Iron Barbs
EVs: 252 HP / 88 Def / 168 SpD
Relaxed Nature
IVs: 0 Spe
- Stealth Rock
- Leech Seed
- Protect
- Gyro Ball

Ferrothorn is here to eat up those super effective moves that Diancie can't take and also for eating up those priority moves that do a lot to Diancie such as Scizor and Mega-Metagross Bullet Punch and also Azumarill's Aqua Jet. Ferrothon is also great hazard set up mon and with Leech Seed protect and Leftovers it can regain most of it's lost hp.

Latios (M) @ Life Orb
Ability: Levitate
EVs: 252 SpA / 4 SpD / 252 Spe
Timid Nature
- Draco Meteor
- Psyshock
- Roost
- Defog

Latios is another Water resist and also a great Pokemon to get rid of entry hazards with Defog.With Latios Draco Meteor it's able to 2hitko bulky water types such as Rotom-W and bulky ground types such as Landorus-T which can both cause problems for Diancie. Psyshock is able to 1hitko fighting types such as Keldeo and able to 2hitko bulky special walks such as Chansey and Clefable and with the Roost Latios is able to regain lost hp.

Landorus-Therian (M) @ Choice Scarf
Ability: Intimidate
EVs: 140 HP / 156 Atk / 212 Spe
Adamant Nature
- Stone Edge
- Earthquake
- Knock Off
- U-turn

After looking over my team,I realized my team was weak to Landorus and scarf Landourus-T and Heatran. So I wanted a bulky revenge killer that could handle those mons and Landorus-T was the first mon that came to me. With it's stab Earthquake it can easily 1hitko Heatran and it can also 2hitko Landorus and Landorus-T with Stone Edge and it's also a great U-turner and it's also a electric immunity.

Keldeo-Resolute @ Choice Specs
Ability: Justified
EVs: 252 SpA / 4 SpD / 252 Spe
Timid Nature
- Scald
- Icy Wind
- Hydro Pump
- Secret Sword

Keldeo is another water resist and also a hard hitting sp.attacker. With Secret Sword Keldeo is able to 1hitko bulky mons such as Ferrothorn and Chansey and with Scald/Hydro Pump it's able to 1hitko bulky ground types such as Excadrill and Landorus-T. With the Icy Wind it's able to 2hitko dragon types such as Latios and Latias

Tell me what you think of the team and ways that I can improve it

I'm not sure what this spread is but lando should have

Landorus-Therian (M) @ Choice Scarf
Ability: Intimidate
EVs: 252 Atk / 24 Def / 232 Spe
Jolly Nature
- Stone Edge
- Earthquake
- Knock Off
- U-turn

and if you think you are weak to lando, why not make lando t defensive so you better take on metagross and other attackers like balloon excadrill? If you used defensive lando t and gave it rocks and ferrothron spikes, it would greatly ease the defensive pressure put on ferrothorn

 

[Der Twist]

I'm not sure Magnezone hits hard enough without Specs, it seems a bit like dead-weight in some ways without that extra power behind him. I'd say run Specs on Mag and Expert Belt on Keldeo. Belt on Keldeo still gives you some good kick behind your attacks but lets you run Mag as your second Choice user which seems more helpful because he needs that kind of power more, without Specs you can't even OHKO Ferro or bulkier variants of Scizor. Though arguably that's not important since defensive Scizors don't usually pack Superpower and what the fuck is a Ferro going to do to a Mag, but it might be helpful to stop Scizors from U-Turning out and Roosting up later and just generally being held over your head.
Something I noticed though is that Scarf Lando can bend you over the table a bit. It seems to have something for everything on your team that can at the very least eat away at you. You can send in Keldeo but given that it outspeeds it can just U-Turn out and get chip damage on you to wear you down over time. Stall, and Talonflame to the extent of removing Keldeo and possibly others easily depending on the variant and circumstance (namely Banded and +2 SD), might possibly be issues for you too. As a solution to this, it's sort of a complete overhaul of my last comment regarding the same two mons, run Keldeo as a Scarfed set, two Scarfers is not unviable and it does let you outspeed Landorus to keep it from picking off your team, it's a much more solid threat to hold over its head. Secondly, run offensive Heatran over Magnezone, this forms a nice F/W/G core with Ferro and can wall and retaliate against birdspam more effectively without forcing Diancie out too early while still maintaining an answer to annoying Steels Keldeo might have some trouble with like Scizor and Ferro. He's also a pretty solid counter to CM Clefable who wouldn't have too many problems running through your team since Clef can't really touch Heatran worth a shit. He can also bring with him Taunt support which would greatly help against walls and sweepers trying to set up on you; it might even force a good oppening to send out Diancie to set up under the right circumstances.
Lastly, maybe HP Electric over Scald could work well on Keldeo as a more offensive answer to bulky Waters, Ferro can wall them but that's not a solution, you'd do well with a more offensive approach.
Hope this helped, sorry if this didn't, I'm tired as fuck. XD

Hey megaman027 cool team! It's actually pretty solid. I feel M-Diancie is such a cool an underrated mon and you definitely have some solid support for it. One thing I notice is that your team is a bit weak to M-Slowbro and to a less extent, Calm Mind Clefable. After one boost they give your team a run for its money. I feel we can fix this by making your Magnezone a bit stronger and giving it Choice Specs. With Choice Specs and the combination of Leech Seed from Ferrothorn, M-Slowbro as well as CM Clefable are both checked, while still dealing with M-Scizor and Ferrothorn for M-Diancie. I feel the standard spread that allows you to outspeed Skarmory can work. You can, however, run more speed if you find M-Scizor with some investment to be a problem. You have Keldeo to weaken that though!

Magnezone

Anyway, cool team! Hope i helped :]

Wow this team is very good. Keldeo isn't greal with this team as you have magnezone to hit ferrothorns and Chansey is your greatest weakness. Metagross 6-0 your team so rotom wash would be a great fit to your team can counter it by will o wisping it. Hope I helped.

 

[leremyju]

He has a ferrothorn and a scarf lando t which can come in and revenge kill. There's also the speed tie with mega diacie so it's not too much of a threat.
