the t-tar team that this tyrant...(OU rmt)

mrguy888

Ran out of "t" words for the title... I finally made a team that seems to win more than lose so I thought it would be worth improving here. It uses the mighty tyrannic Tyranitar.

Swampert@leftovers
Relaxed
240hp, 216def, 52 spA

Earthquake
Ice Beam
Roar
Stealth Rock

The basic Mixpert. I chose Swampert to be on my team because of his typing. He resists fire and is neutral to ground the 2 main weaknesses of my team. He also is packing super effective moves for both. Swampert makes an excellent lead and is immune to sandstorm making him fit well in this slot.
Plus Swampert is just awesome :p

latias.png


Latias@leftovers
Calm
252hp, 184spe, 72spD

Calm Mind
Recover
Dragon Pulse
Surf

Latias has taken over Celebi's job of killing grounds. Unlike Celebi he has a fire resist. With surf he takes care of fire and ground poke's if the need arises. Latias can also threaten with a sweep in a pinch which Celebi couldn't. Recover keeps him alive in the sandstorm.

Magnezone@Choice Scarf
Timid
4hp, 252spe, 252spA

Thunderbolt
HP Fire
Signal Beam
Explosion

Magnezone is here to kill Scizor. Scizor is the biggest counter to Tyranitar there is so why not a poke who can kill him easily. Magnezone is no slouch even without Scizor though. He functions as a good revenge killer when Dugtrio can't do the job. His typing makes switching in pretty easy as well.

bronzong.png


Bronzong@Light Clay
Levitate
Relaxed
252hp, 86att, 80def, 92spD

Light Screen
Reflect
Earthquake/Gyro Ball
Explosion

Dual screening Bronzong. With dual screens up Tyranitars above par defenses become even higher allowing it to get it's groove on and set up for the sweep. A scizor bullet punch does 162 max against t-tar behind reflect. Would earthquake or gyro ball be better in that slot? I'm thinking earthquake but I may be wrong here. Should Gliscor go here? It would make my team very water weak but it would use sandstorm better.

Dugtrio@Choice Scarf
Adamant
44hp, 252att, 212spe

Earthquake
Stone Edge
Night Slash
Aerial Ace

My two main weaknesses are fire and ground. Add 130 spA to the mix and you have the offensive beast that is Heatran. Flygon was in this spot but can't take even resisted fireblasts over and over. Same with Swampert. Thus the need for Duggy here. He can also kill Infernape who's Fire and Fighting attack are almost as bad. He has proved his usefulness many times.

Tyranitar@leftovers
Jolly
6hp, 252att, 252spe

Dragon Dance
Crunch
Stone Edge
Fire Punch

T-tar is the base of this team it all revolves around him. I don't need a reason to have him here he is the reason everyone else is here. He is a beast. Not much useful things to say about him though...


To recap there is Swampert, Celebi, Magenezone, Bronzong, Dugtrio, and Tyranitar. All barring T-tar is switchable if the need is there. Sorry I'm new to this RMT stuff so if it is subpar excuse me.

I don't understand how the team works together. I recommend changing surf for roar on swampert to scout out your opponents team. But overall swampert is a solid lead.
Celibi is a great pokemon however I would recommend to replace her with a bulky latias as it covers your weaknesses well and is a threat that if left unchecked can sweep a whole team. I recommend HP Fire Dragon Pulse Calm Mind and Recover for a moveset. Hp fire to deal with scizor that will be a pain for scizor. or surf instead of HP fire as it gives great coverage and blocks heatran and infernapes.
I would keep megnezone as it kills scizor and covers latias' ice and dragon weakness.
To replace brozong I recommend a dancing wall gliscor to take advantage of the sandstorm with sand viel
Keep tyranitar cuz he is the star of the show
To Replace dugtrio I recommend a wish vaporeon to add some support to your team.

Now that team isn't perfect. But it at least gets you to a point that people can start to help you as you have almost built a team to be killed by MixApe. Hope I helped

You need to watch out for MixApe or Scarfed heatran and also don't see much synergy but maybe thats just me

He does have Dugtrio that can revenge kill either of them, unless MixApe is running some sort of priority move, and even then, he should still be able to survive a hit and OHKO back with Earthquake.

On your Magnezone, you could try running Signal Beam over Flash Cannon. Flash Cannon really only hits Ice Types (HP Fire can do that already) and Tyranitar (who won't be OHKO'd and will strike back with a x4 Earthquake) while Signal Beam actually allows you to OHKO most Celebi and can also hurt Latias.

If your team's goal is to promote a DDTTar Sweep, then changing Bronzong to a Dual Screen set might not be a bad idea, especially considering that Hypnosis misses now even more (if possible :P) than before.

Overall, your team doesn't seem to have any major weaknesses, although I can see both SD Lucario and DDGyarados being a problem, especially later in the match when any reliable switch-ins are crippled or killed. Putting Thunder Wave on Celebi might be able to remedy this, especially since most DDGyarados now run a third attacking move over taunt. You also might want to check if Magnezone can OHKO Lucario with HP Fire (I don't believe it can, but it's worth knowing how much damage it will do both before and after a Close Combat).

I like your team.

duggy can survive mach punch from ape and ohko sd lucario is out speeded and ohkoed as well

Ty slumdog for the latias idea i will defenatly try that. surf to kill grounds though.
 
Celebi should have Hidden Power [Fire] over Hidden Power [Ice]. Celebi's 4x weakness to Bug means it lures in Scizor like moths to a flame (which is ironic since Scizor is weak to Fire), ready to slam a member of your team with CB U-Turn. Hidden Power [Fire] will easily 2HKO, but once they see what type it is they won't stay in. Still, ripping off over 50% of their HP is invaluable.
 
My first thought when seeing bronzong was "Glued not attached" or in other terms something that you just kinda stuck on. I feel as though Bronzong doesn't have very much synergy with the rest of the team. My suggestion to you is to either switch its moveset of take it out flat right. If you want to switch its set I'd suggest the screen set for T-tar. If you want to switch it outright, I did notice your team lacks the ability to work with sandstorm as well as it should. My suggestion is to put another rock type on this team. Either Rampardos or Ryperior.
