This isn't one of those RMTs where I just show off my team, I actually need help with teambuilding. All my questions are bolded
Rayquaza @ Life Orb
Airlock
Naive 252 Speed / 252 Sp. Attack / 4 Attack
Outrage
Draco Meteor
V-Create
ExtremeSpeed
Amazing mixed attacker. I use Rayquaza to break walls, usually a Forretress that tries to set up entry hazards, allowing Garchomp and Kyogre to sweep. Even in the rain, V Create hits at max power thanks to Air Lock. Air Lock also shuts down the rare swift swimmers. Rayquaza is really only shut down by priority moves, since it's so frail, but usually the ExtremeSpeed/Ice Shard is obvious, so I can switch into Skarmory.
My question here is the EVs: I took them straight off the official analysis, but seeing as 3/4 of this Rayquaza's attacks are physical, should I max attack rather than special attack?
Kyogre @ Choice Scarf
Drizzle
Modest 252 Speed / 252 Sp. Attack
Water Spout
Surf
Thunder
Ice Beam
Standard Kyogre. After special walls have been taken out, Kyogre hits everything really hard. With only 90 base speed, however, other scarfers with higher speed like Palkia can come in and try to revenge with Thunder, which is why I have Garchomp. I just have to make sure the opponent doesn't have anything that can outspeed Kyogre before I try to sweep, because taking damage reduces the power of Water Spout.
Timid nature over Modest?
Lugia @ Leftovers
Multiscale (that's legal now right?)
Calm 252 HP / 252 Sp. Def
Thunderwave
Ice Beam
Whirlwind
Roost
No Defense investment because I want Lugia to take special hits as well as possible. It's not Lugia's job to take physical hits, so I don't keep him in to take them.
Thunderwave cripples practically everything, and Ice Beam hits the dragon types which are everywhere in Ubers. Whirlwind is there to stop a pokemon from setting up. I don't like dragon tail because it's blocked by subs
Suggestions are welcome here, but this set is working very well for me
Skarmory @ Leftovers
Sturdy
Impish 252 Def / 252 HP
Roost
Whirlwind
Spikes
Drill Peck
Similar to the Lugia situation, I only expect Skarmory to take physical hits. I switch Skarmory in on an Outrage and set up spikes. Drill Peck isn't used much, because it doesn't do much damage, but it's a reliable STAB move. I hate when my walls can't do anything back to attackers (like Chansey), and Skarmory can at least rack up damage with spikes.
This set works fine for me, but any suggestions are welcome
Garchomp @ Choice Scarf
Sand Veil (it's... whatever)
Adamant (Or should I go Jolly? I'm not sure if I need the extra power or speed more)
252 Attack 252 Speed
Outrage
Stone Edge
Dragon Claw
Earthquake
Garchomp comes in on the electric attacks aimed at half my team, hits back hard and fast, usually gets a KO or two per battle.
102 base speed is faster than practically every other dragon, aside from the Lati's, which are rare.
Deoxys-A @ Expert Belt
Pressure
Naughty (+Attack, -Sp. Def) 252 Speed / 252 Special Attack)
Extreme Speed
Superpower
Ice Beam
Thunder
Expert Belt is such a troll: I use a physical attack, the opponent, seeing no lefties or life orb, switches in a physical wall thinking I'm choiced, and they get hit with special attack the next turn. Deoxys always gets a few KO's.
Expert Belt is perfect for it's moveset.
Big Problems!
I have nothing that likes switching in on Ice type moves. I'm thinking Heatran or (lol) Cryogonal? If I bring one of those pokemon in, who should it replace?
If I need to sacrifice a pokemon to Darkrai's Dark Void, my team falls apart. Deoxys can only deal with Darkrai if they are both sent out at the same time. I have trouble picking sleep fodder.
