Hello, With the team I am about to show you, I have won 159 times in a row, which I think is pretty high. I wanna see if there is anyway I can bang out any dents in my strategy. Okay, here it goes. Edit: Ah, okay, apparently I need to post more than is needed to explain the team, so Im gonna add more Info to it.
Pokemon At A Glance

Hitmonlee

Sucker Punch
EVs: 252 Att, 252 Spd
4 HP
Combination Strategy
Okay, here is what I do if the time was right. First, I would make my Hitmonlee do Endure. Then My Metagross would use Explosion, Killing the first two Foe Pokemon. My Hitmonlee would be damaged also, but Endure leaves it with 1 Hp. At that point in HP, the Salac Berry would be Eaten and I would use Sucker Punch to finish off Focus Sashers, and then I would start Reversalling Pokemon in my way. Because of my speed boost, I can move first most of the time, So far the only flaw in this was that sometimes I would be Quick Attacked, but other then that I do pretty well. Sucker Punch is for those Psychics. If a situation arouse where I could not use the combination to its full potential, like a Gengar or any other Pokemon that doesn't get Damaged by Explosion, I would take out the one or two pokemon that resist and start the Explosion + Endure/Salac Berry/Reversal Combination. Hitmonlee's Reversal of course supposed to be practically like a 1 hit KO, because at 1HP the moves base power is 200, which can't help but do alot of damage.
The Backups
Weavile
Nature: Adamant
Item: Life Orb, or NeverMeltIce
Ability: Pressure
Moves:
Ice Punch
Brick Break
Ice Shard
Night Slash
EVs: 252 Att, 252 Spd
4 HP
Contribution
When I am faced with Pokemon where I need Weaviles Speed and STABs, I would bring Weavile out to dish out some damage. Such situations would be if a Garchomp or Salamence were my Oposition, threats like those need to be taken out Immediately. I would usually make my Weavile hold Life Orb because it does alot to help boost my moves in Bad situations. Night Slash is for any Psychic pokemon that I need to take down such as Azelf or Alakazam. Brick Break is for other Dark Types. Ice Shard is there if anyone hangs onto a Focus Sash/Band.
Hitmonchan
Nature: Adamant
Item: Expert Belt
Ability: Iron Fist
Moves:
Ice Punch
Thunder Punch
Fire Punch
Close Combat
EVs: 252 Att, 252 Spd,
4HP
Contribution
Hitmonchan is there for Type Coverage, doing 20% more damage due to his Iron Fist Ability, and another 20% with Super Effective damage thanks to Expert Belt. He is usually the one I would send out to sweep after Metagross was done Exploding because he has some great type coverage. Hitmonchans Defenses makes up for alot for the Speed that he doesn't have, and he is a very reliable back up when faced with bulky Ubers like Garchomp because Hitmonchan can absorb the STAB Earthquake.
