XY OU Charizard-X Sweep ~~

[Merzi]

This team revolves around getting a good opportunity for getting a good sweep with
Charizard-X. Lets checkout the team

Team:

¨

´Lededz (Breloom) @ Toxic Orb
Ability: Poison Heal
EVs: 252 HP / 252 Atk / 4 Spe
Adamant Nature
- Spore
- Swords Dance
- Substitute
- Focus Punch

Role: Lead

I use breloom at first because people dont expect me to setup kills like this. First i use Spore, followed up by substitute so my toxic orb can start healing, then i use swords dance and finish up with focus punch. This most of the time one punches my opponent. If my enemy switches Pokemon, i get the chance to use focus punch again. I've almost never failed this.

I enjoy drilling ur mom (Excadrill) @ Leftovers
Ability: Mold Breaker
Shiny: Yes
EVs: 252 HP / 252 Atk / 4 Spe
Adamant Nature
- Earthquake
- Iron Head
- Rapid Spin
- Stealth Rock

Role: Spinner/Pivot

Excadrill is my Rapid Spinner. Next to that he also does alot of damage. If i predict my enemies use a Fighting type attack i switch to Rotom-wash and if i predict a earthquake, i switch to charizard and setup a sweep. He also does ALOT of damage with STAB Earhtquake. He always one shots steel types such as Bisharp and Heatran. He wont one shot them if they have air ballon or focus sash though.

252+ Atk Mold Breaker Excadrill Earthquake vs. 4 HP / 0 Def Bisharp: 372-438 (136.7 - 161%) -- guaranteed OHKO

252+ Atk Mold Breaker Excadrill Earthquake vs. 248 HP / 0 Def Heatran: 708-832 (183.8 - 216.1%) -- guaranteed OHKO

Wash my clothes mom! (Rotom-Wash) @ Choice Scarf
Ability: Levitate
EVs: 4 HP / 252 SpA / 252 Spe
Timid Nature
- Volt Switch
- Hydro Pump
- Hidden Power [Ice]
- Thunderbolt

Role: Revenge Killer/Pivot

Rotom-Wash is a really good revenge killer because, he got volt switch which can make him a - Hit and run. - Hes also a really good lead because, if i fear breloom wont work i can switch to this guy and switch out if he got a bad matchup. He also always one shots or 2 shots Water and Flying pokemon such as;

252 SpA Rotom-W Thunderbolt vs. 92 HP / 0 SpD Azumarill: 306-362 (84 - 99.4%) -- guaranteed 2HKO

252 SpA Rotom-W Thunderbolt vs. 0 HP / 0 SpD Gyarados: 508-600 (153.4 - 181.2%) -- guaranteed OHKO

Charizard @ Charizardite X
Ability: Blaze
EVs: 144 HP / 252 Atk / 112 Spe
Adamant Nature
- Dragon Dance
- Dragon Claw
- Earthquake
- Roost

Role: Sweeper

I was gonna get a support such as Celebi or Mew, but then i saw he already does alot of damage on his own. His Dragon Dance lets him setup a sweep while roost helps him with survivability. He also can win against a Dragonite Sweeper. He also almost 2 shots every pokemon.

Magnezone @ Choice Scarf
Ability: Magnet Pull
EVs: 172 HP / 252 SpA / 84 Spe
Modest Nature
- Volt Switch
- Hidden Power [Fire]
- Thunderbolt
- Flash Cannon

Role: Revenge Killer/Pivot

This Pokemon can't die while doing alot of damage. The 84 speed and Choice Scarf lets him outspeed most of the revenge killers without choice scarfs. He also murders Pokemon that doesnt have Special Defense because of his amazing damage. His Magnet Pull makes him able to Revenge Kill a pokemon already Revenge Killed by Scizor.

252+ SpA Magnezone Hidden Power Fire vs. 248 HP / 176 SpD Mega Scizor: 244-288 (71.1 - 83.9%) -- guaranteed 2HKO

Bob (Heatran) @ Assault Vest
Ability: Flash Fire
EVs: 56 HP / 252 SpA / 200 SpD
Modest Nature
- Dark Pulse
- Earth Power
- Fire Blast
- Flash Cannon

Role: Wall/Potential Sweeper

Heatran is the perfect Pokemon for absorbing Fire-Moves. He absorbs fire moves that are targeted against Magnezone and Excadrill. When he gets his Flash Fire he has a Sweep Potential. He also crushes almost all fire pokemon. Heatran also has Assault Vest because i want him to be a wall as well as a potential sweeper.

252+ SpA Heatran Overheat vs. 0 HP / 0 SpD Breloom: 704-830 (269.7 - 318%) -- guaranteed OHKO

252+ SpA Heatran Overheat vs. 0 HP / 0 SpD Celebi: 468-552 (137.2 - 161.8%) -- guaranteed OHKO

Hello there! Nice team you got, but one main problem is present: Four members of your team have a huge ass weakness to Ground Types. Seriously. I can easily see a single Dugtrio wrecking the whole team (with the exception of Rotom W.) Try to find ways to fix that, without reliance on Rotom.

 

[PikachuCandyツ]

Just a quick note, instead of running roost on Zard X, try running a Frustration to combat dittos and togekiss. Works great and you don't have to worry about fairy switch ins with teams containing Landorus therian. Also helps against mega altaria too.

Thanks , ill replace assault vest with air ballon ^^

 

[Tushar Cool]

frustration on zard x makes no sense roost is better, gliscor is better option for toxic orb posion heal so try sash breloom
use defensive rotom for flying spam thats all i can say for now, i gtg actually.

 

[PikachuCandyツ]

Frustration on Zard x deals with togekiss seeing as no other of his moves would effect it. It has base 102 power which makes it just as effective as earthquake. On the other hand it deals with the landorus therian fairy teams a lot better. I'm not questioning roost because it is indeed a great move. But a sweeping Pokemon should have diversity if it wants to handle the most common Pokemon.

Togekiss isn't common,flare biltz can deal with lando-t but it is better to switch out when lando-t is out, u have to put the teammates to deal with them,although zard x is late game sweeper...

I see your point, great observation and was pondering on if a fire move would work better, but I'll leave the rest to you. Just giving a few tips from past Zard x sweep teams I ran before that worked well. Dragon claw and eq don't work too well on defensive ferro either. The truth is I ran flame charge, outrage, ddance, and frustration and It still worked well against even heatran.

 

[MANNAT]

Let me provide a full rate for this team for ya sir.

Breloom:
This set seems to be a set that would be better used in pp because poison heal isn't really useful in the current metagame because technician completely outclasses it. I recommend running a focus sash technician set over the one you currently have to use as a better lead mon and a generally more useful team member as a whole.

Sash Loom

Breloom @ Focus Sash
Ability: Technician
EVs: 252 Atk / 4 Def / 252 Spe
Jolly Nature
- Spore
- Bullet Seed
- Mach Punch
- Rock Tomb

This set is a really nice sashed set that capitilizes on the use of spore to disable one mon on the opposing team and possibly knock out another. Bullet seed is a great STAB move that is boosted by technician and can amount to a rediculous amount of base power if you get decently lucky. Mach Punch is a nice move that can help you take down frailer Pokemon and kill opposing leads that have sustained a decent amount of damage. Rock Tomb is a great lure move that requires a bit of prediction to be used properly. After you put the opposing mon to sleep, you predict the switch in to the opposing flying type and deal a ton of damage to it as well as dropping the speed of any mon that switches in which can really help slower and more powerful opponents sweep.

Excadrill:
You should probably move stealth rocks over to Heatran and make this a scarfed set (or AV if you need an AV user that bad) that can quickly spin away hazards as well as packing some speed to it. I personally recommend using the choice scarf set as it provides a much needed revenge killer that can do some real damage for your team that can clean up late game when paired with loom.

Scarf Excadrill

Excadrill @ Choice Scarf
Ability: Mold Breaker
EVs: 4 HP / 252 Atk / 252 Spe
Jolly Nature
- Earthquake
- Rock Slide
- Iron Head
- Rapid Spin

This is a very similar set to your other set but with rock slide functioning as psuedo quakedge coverage as well as making Excadrill into a terrifyingly fast sweeper and can rapid spin very quickly now. (Also, don't show calcs against Pokemon that are obviously KO'd by super effective STAB moves and such) Rock Slide mainly hits the Flying Types that Earthquake doesn't kill for super effective damage, but it really isn't used unless you run into smogon bird or mega pinsir.

Rotom-Wash
Rotom-W is much better used as a defensive pivot rather than a choice scarf set because of its decent defenses and nice support movepool. Since you now have another choice scarfer and Rotom-W definitely is better as a defensive pivot. Here is a defensive set that I like to use for Rotom-W that can better help you against physically offensive threats such as Talonflame and such as well.

Defensive Rotom-W

Rotom-Wash @ Leftovers
Ability: Levitate
EVs: 212 HP / 252 Def / 44 Spe
Bold Nature
IVs: 0 Atk
- Hydro Pump
- Volt Switch
- Pain Split
- Will-O-Wisp

This set has 44 speed to outspeed max speed jolly Azumarill and either burn it with will o wisp or hit it with volt switch without sacrificing physical bulk. Hydro Pump is a strong Water STAB move that can deal big damage to targets that are weak to it like Landorus and Talonflame. Volt Switch is a great STAB move that allows Rotom-W to function as a nice pivot out to teammates while still dealing damage to the opponent. Will-O-Wisp can cripple physical attackers and hurt opposing Pokemon every turn. The rest of the EVs are dumped into HP and Defense to maximize bulk.

Charizard-X:
Honestly Replace Earthquake with flare blitz or fire punch and slash earthquake with roost in the last slot and run a jolly nature to outpace scarf lando at +1. Aside from that, the set is great! Also, don't bother using frustration as your fire type STAB moves hit Pokemon immune to your dragon type moves way harder and can be super effective a lot of the time.

DDance Zard

Charizard @ Charizardite X
Ability: Blaze
EVs: 90 HP / 252 Atk / 166 Spe
Jolly Nature
- Dragon Dance
- Dragon Claw
- Flare Blitz / Fire Punch
- Roost / Earthquake

This spread allows zard to outspeed 232 jolly Landorus-T and do a ton of damage with its STAB moves. Try to get Landorus-T into low HP before killing with this set.

Magnezone: This set is basically perfect (maybe a lure set for excadrill?)

Heatran
Heatran isn't really that good off an assault vest user, so you should probably replace the current set with a fast stealth rock variant that it can really help against certain stallmons. This set also should have Air Balloon as ground type moves destroy your entire team after Charizard mega evolves and Rotom-W is down.

Offensive Air Balloon

Heatran @ Air Balloon
Ability: Flash Fire
EVs: 252 SpA / 12 SpD / 244 Spe
Timid Nature
- Stealth Rock
- Fire Blast
- Flash Cannon
- Taunt

This set utilizes Air Balloon and offensive firepower to function as a really nice rock setter and can function as a lead quite often if you need to set up rocks straight away. Fire Blast is a strong fire STAB that can blow through teams after its resists (and blobs) are gone. Flash Cannon really helps slow down fairy spam teams and lets this set reliably counter CM Clefable missing Focus Blast. Taunt is a great move that cripples a ton of mons on stall and can function as a psuedo rapid spinner because it prevents your opponent from setting up rocks.

Great team dude! I hope that my rate helped out the team a alot. :)

Also, try to update the OP when your team updates and try to hide your importable and/or teambuilding process stuff with hide tags like this:
