I've been in competitive OU in a while and I wanted to make a team where i didnt depend on a single one nor stalling since, in my opinion is the worst way to play, besides this team does nicely in all types of weather, and even tho it doesnt have excadrill, kingdra or a sun boosted, it usually counters them. I like to play offensivly but this team is balanced, 3 offensive and 3 defensive pokemon. Thanks for checking my RMT, this is the way to victory.

First I started with the famous MixNite as my lead since it is a great wall
breaker, and it's a very good offensive start making some wholes at the
beggining of the battle.

Then I put Special Defensive Jirachi, these guys make a great team, each
covers its weaknesses and besides, who doesnt hate getting haxed by this
little guy.

I was having some problems with the Lati@s, scizor and sometimes
Tyranitar so I went for Offensive Volcarona as my set up sweeper which stab
Bug buzz hits hard Tyranitar and Latis, and standard Rotom-w to
take out scizor and take a defensive role on my team.

Sand Storm Teams were getting on my nerves, mostly Excadrill
so I found out that bronzong was perfect for this team, it could
take Some Dragon attacks and rock. Also I was looking for
another Dragon type so LO latios seemed fine. Also I had changed
Dragonite to Bulky DD.

This was the final phase for my team, I changed Volcarona
since I was having problems to switch him in thanks to stealth rocks, Rotom-w
wasnt really needed since it could beat scizor but was totally stopped by
the pink blobs chansey/blissey and I was getting totally pwnd by Haxorus
so I'm now using Scarfed Mienshao, celebi instead of rotom-w, who's a boss
and the weird Nidoking. Latios is a very common foe and aswell
every team has a counter for him.
Dragonite (F) @ Leftovers
Trait: Multiscale
EVs: 252 HP / 44 Atk / 212 Spd
Adamant Nature (+Atk, -SAtk)
Dragon Claw Roost
Fire Punch Dragon Dance
Pretty much a standard Dragonite, coupled with wish jirachi it can be destructive in almost every team. Besides, it can also come in and go many times and set up easily, after this it can take lots of pkm from the current metagame since in its majority they are Dragon or Steel Types, also the actual problem is Heatran or Defensive Gliscor which can stop the sweeping but Mienshao takes care of them usually.
Slowbro (M) @ Leftovers
Trait: Regenerator
EVs: 252 HP / 252 Def / 4 SpA
Scald | Psychic | Thunder Wave | Slack Off
Trait: Regenerator

Thanks to BKC for advicing me this. With this little pink frag sand i get more chance to stop terrakion to set up and sweep me. Also it's ability combined with thunder wave can be very annoying but useful for my team. Thanks for the advide dude
Tiknerbell (Celebi) @ Leftovers
Trait: Natural Cure
EVs: 252 HP / 220 Def / 36 Spd
Bold Nature (+Def, -Atk)
- Giga Drain
- Recover
- Leech Seed
- Hidden Power [Fire]
May I present to you one of the mostimportant member here, Celebi, this little guy's ability as Natural Cure is really handy since, for example, when you see a chansey/blissey coming you know they will toxic or thunderwave on you, this is where Celebi comes, leech seeds and goes back, and now the next pkm i switch in will recover somewhat. Giga Drain hits very nicely Rotom-w and still recover some hp, also, with its respectable defences it can take some good hits, hp fire will hit scizor and most probably OHKO him. Recover has obvious reasons, to recover some lost hp.
Nidoking (M) @ Life Orb
Trait: Sheer Force
EVs: 252 SAtk / 4 SDef / 252 Spd
Timid Nature (+Spd, -Atk)
Earth Power Thunderbolt
Ice Beam Flamethrower
Now here is where some people go: WTF? why did you choose that guy?!? and the answer is simple, even tho it has mediocre speed it still can outspeed some defensive pkm from the latter metagame such as gliscor or skarmory. Also as you can Imagine, using him as a lead isnt a too bad Idea, its great movepool allows some great hits and Sheer Force coupled with Life Orb does an amazing damage, not only that but it's bulky enough to take an uneccpected hit and recover later with Wish from Jirachi and Nidoking can take some mach hits from Conkeldurr .
Mienshao (F) @ Choice Scarf
Trait: Regenerator
EVs: 252 Atk / 32 SAtk / 224 Spd
Naive Nature (+Spd, -SDef)
Hi Jump Kick Hidden Power [Ice]
Stone Edge U-turn
Mienshao is amazing, with its great ability, great attack, decent special attack and good speed. I gave him those evs because, gliscore loves to switch in and that way Ican get a OHKO easier, it is still very fast. this way it can outspeed a +2 ChestoRest Volcarona and ofc OHKO with Stone Edge. Also, the pink blobs were givingme some problems as well as Heatran so this guy can easily OHKO with Hi Jump Kick, however its imperfect acuuracy and scary secondary effect is a shame, I just would need to switch out to recover somewhat and come back later. This works excelent a revenge killer, or to explore somewhat my opponents team with U-turn.
JingleBell (Bronzong) @ Leftovers
Trait: Levitate
EVs: 252 HP / 84 Atk / 80 Def / 88 SDef
Sassy Nature (+SDef, -Spd)
Gyro Ball Stealth Rock
Earthquake Hypnosis
This is one of the best walls in the game as its only weakness being fire it canset rocks up and then, which was in my opinion the best choice, put to sleep a pokemon, I know hypnosis has a bad accuracy but usually, pokemon like scizor, or big set up threats come thinking it'd be easy to set up infront of him and then BAM asleep, while this I get somefree turns, for example to set Dragonite up or just switch to Nidoking and force a switch or defeat the opponent.
PS: Since im to lazy to edit most of the Ex Jirachi I'mjust letting you know I changed it for slowbro
PS of PS: Should I put Gastrodon somewhere in my team? Rain teams are getting annoying.
