Hey guys, this is my first RMT for RU and I hope you enjoy.
HOW I BUILT THIS TEAM
Team Memeber #1
Accelgor:
Now, I wanted to have lead that get up some sort of hazard and hit back with a decent attack. I found Accelgor to be that perfect pokemon. With an amazing base Spd of 145 and a decent SpA of 100 allows me to hit back pretty hard.
Team Member #2
Hariyama:
Next, I wanted a hard hitting that could mabye pull off a sweep. First on this slot I had Life Orbed, Rock Head, Aggron. He just had to ma ny weaknesses for my liking even though he hit like a tank. Another great thing about Hariyama is that he has great bulk and can destroy those bulky walls that lurk in the RU Tier.
Team Member #3
Druddigon:
First off, Druddigon is now my new favorite pokemon. I can't even explan how good this guy is. At first I ran a bulky support set and then switched over to all offensive set. Druddigon lacks only one thing which is a decent Spd stat. But can be made up for with some select moves.
Team Member #4
Galvantula:
Now that I have two good all Physical Attackers, I needed something fast that could just drop massive kills and lemme tell yeah, CompoundEyes Galvantula is just that pokemon. This pokemon I believe is the number 1 Specs pokemon in RU.
Team Member #5
Entei:
By now your probaly wondering, whats up with all the Physical Attackers? I just like them:)
Now, all kidding aside, he has greats synergy with Galvantula and Accelgor, and has great revenge killing with ExtremeSpeed. I had Absol in this spot as a set-up sweeper but just found him to be to slow.
Final Team Member
Sandslash:
Well every team need a spinner and mind as well through some rocks on him as well. Plus sometimes he can get that Equake kill.
Now lets go in depth into each pokemon!

Accelgor:
@ Focus Sash
Trait: Unburden
EVs: 252 Spd/252 SpA/ 4 HP
Timid Nature
-Spikes
- Focus Blast
- Hidden Power [Fire]Trait: Unburden
EVs: 252 Spd/252 SpA/ 4 HP
Timid Nature
-Spikes
- Focus Blast
- Giga Drain
My lead pokemon. Starts off with Spikes and takes a hit which will activate Unburden. Unburden is a great ablity becasue it rasies my speed to crazy 852! Now depending if thier team has a spinner or not I usually go on the offensive if one of my moves are supereffective or not. I run HP Fire because lately I have been seeing many Hail Teams in RU and it also helps with Lilligent and other Grass Pokemon. Giga Drain is a just another coverage move Aggron and other bulky rock types. Now Focus Blast is great for normal types such as Lopunny and Cinccino.
Hariyama:
Trait: Guts
Shiny: Yes
EVs: 252 HP / 4 SDef / 252 Atk
Adamant Nature
- Bullet Punch
- Close Combat
- Stone Edge
- Fake Out
Hariyama has really started to grow on me. At first I decided to use Hitmonlee and was nice with the ablity Limber, but after watching a battle with this guy I decided to try him out. One great thing about him is that he can switch in on rocks and only lose 6% Health which is great. He has great bulk and cant be status because of the flame orb and Bullet Punch puts holes into teams. Stone Edge is for coverage of flying pokemon and really helps on Accelgor. Close Combat Guts boosted is nuts but after two or so really becomes vulnerable to being killed.
Druddigon:
Trait: Rough Skin
Shiny: Yes
EVs: 252 Atk / 252 HP / 4 SDef
Adamant Nature
- Fire Punch
- Dragon Claw
- Earthquake
- Sucker Punch
At first I ran Glare instead of EQuake and Rocks in place of Fire Punch but, I decided to switch over to a full ofensive set. Now the only problem I have with this pokemon is the base Spd of 48 which is god awful. But, as I said in the preveiw with a select move this burden goes away. Suker Punch is great bescause its already a great move and with a base attack of 120, it becomes even better move. Alot of people seem to run Outrage on him, but I dont like the move lock and Dragon Claw still does mounts of damage. Now, alot of people have been surprised by the Fire Punch on Druddigon, but sometimes catches those Ice Pokemon off guared and can get that KO. But, my most favorite reason I love this guy is because of his bulk. With his 90 Def and SpD and 77 HP he can take a hit and dish one back AND with Rough Skin damage is also a plus.
Galvantula:
@ Choice SpecsTrait: Compoundeyes
EVs: 252 Spd / 252 SAtk / 4 SDef
Timid Nature
- Bug Buzz
- Thunder
- Volt Switch
- Giga Drain
I believe Galvantula is the #1 Specs abuser is RU. He is quick with a base speed of 108 and with 252 Spd EV's and Timid nature speed tops at a nice 346. A 91% percent Thunder is extremely deadly and can break pretty much any wall in 2 hits. Bug Buzz is great for Uxie and those type of leads. Giga Drain is for Rhydon and such. And Volt Switch is for a quick hit-and-run.
Entei:
Trait: Pressure
Shiny: Yes
EVs: 252 Spd / 252 Atk / 4 HP
Adamant Nature
- ExtremeSpeed
- Flare Blitz
- Stone Edge
- Iron Head
If not for Rocks, I believe Entei could be usuable in OU. With a great base Atk of 115 and Spd of 100 and can really be a threat. With a final Atk of 541 is devastating in the RU tier. He isn a great revenge killer with ESpeed and can really help out Galvantula an Accelgor with the flying and ice and rock type pokemon having great synergy with this team. Iron Head is a very usuable move because of the flinch hax and Flare Blitz, even though the recoil damage, rips through pokemon that dont resist it.
Sandslash:
Trait: Sand Rush
EVs: 252 Spd / 164 HP / 92 Atk
Jolly Nature
- Earthquake
- Stealth Rock
- Rapid Spin
- Toxic
Well, Sandslash's role is pretty easy to see here. Spin rocks away and putting them into play and mabye lay down a toxic or two and if lucky enough mabye get a EQuake off. Not sure if I should switch him with another pokemon or what. Could use the help with this slot please.
Well thanks everyone for the time and please leave your ideas on what you think and thanks again!
