ORAS OU HO RMT- Looking for smoothing over the team.

Hello, welcome to anther one of my RMT's. This is my HO OU team. The main points consist of spamming U-turn to keep momentum, while keeping sweepers and a healing wisher for support in the back. The main weakness of this team is Mega Sableye. Oh how I hate this thing. The thing I would prefer to replace for a M-Sableye counter is Mega Scizor. Anyways, here's the team-

Garchomp @ Life Orb
Ability: Rough Skin
EVs: 252 Atk / 4 SpD / 252 Spe
Jolly Nature
- Dragon Claw
- Earthquake
- Fire Fang
- Poison Jab

This thing is overall my favorite mon in the meta and I really molded the team to work with him. My set is a straight up attacking set with all the coverage I need, with Fire fang for the ferros and scizors, poison jab for fairies, or stab DClaw and EQ.

Celebi @ Leftovers
Ability: Natural Cure
EVs: 4 HP / 252 SpA / 252 Spe
Modest Nature
- Heal Bell
- Recover
- Healing Wish
- Leaf Storm

Here's Celebi, she is my main support mon. Once a majority of my team has been statused, I switch in and heal bell. Healing wish pretty much means I can get a sweeper from burned and 1% HP to healthy and ready for another sweep. My EV spread also gurantees Leaf storm OHKOs Rotom-W.

Jirachi @ Choice Scarf
Ability: Serene Grace
EVs: 252 Atk / 4 SpD / 252 Spe
Jolly Nature
- Iron Head
- U-turn
- Ice Punch
- Healing Wish

Not much to say here. It's jirachi, pretty self explanatory. I can spam iron head all day and get flinches, or keep the momentum up with U-turn and healing wish. I also pack ice punch to deal with lando-t.

Kyurem-Black @ Expert Belt
Ability: Teravolt
EVs: 248 HP / 8 Atk / 252 SpA
Rash Nature
- Roost
- Draco Meteor
- Ice Beam
- Fusion Bolt

I feel like this mon is severely underrated, but in reality it actually destroys. Running a mixed set means burn doesn't completely cripple kyurem. With amazing attack and great bulk, I can easily take down mon after mon while self-preserving with roost.

Scizor-Mega @ Scizorite
Ability: Technician
EVs: 248 HP / 252 Atk / 8 SpD
Adamant Nature
- U-turn
- Bullet Punch
- Iron Head
- Swords Dance

Like I wrote earlier, this is definitely the mon I'm shaky on. Although all of his moves pack a punch and can finish off with bullet punch, I feel like he is shut down too easily. I definitely would like to replace this with a Mega Sabelye counter. Even with an SD, Scizor can't always outspeed and will be ohko'd by many mons.

Keldeo-Resolute @ Choice Specs
Ability: Justified
EVs: 252 SpA / 4 SpD / 252 Spe
Timid Nature
- Hydro Pump
- Scald
- Secret Sword
- Icy Wind

This is just a standard Keldeo set. It's easily one of the hardest hitting mons in the meta and can clean up late game with ease. The moves are standard, hydro pump for damage, secret sword to surprise Chaney, and icy wind for the x4 weak to ice.

Threats-

Oh, look who it is. I. Fucking. Hate. Mega. Sableye. Not only can it spam WoW, it will knock off all items, and at the end of the day, it'll just recover and all chances of KO'ing are gone. Mega Scizor is definitely my candidate for replacing for a Mega Sableye counter. Please, help me destroy this thing :-:

hi nice team. some issues i noticed at first were your lack of stealth rock and that some of your mons are running weird or unviable sets. first thing i would change sd + sr > fire fang and pjab on garchomp. pjab is actually completely useless on garchomp because eq usually outdamages it and because you absolutely need stealth rock on your teams, you're forced to drop fire fang although kyurem-b can beat skarmory fairly easily. i would also change celebi to serperior, serperior doesn't invite mega sableye in as often as celebi does and you already have healing wish support in jirachi. kyurem-b needs to run a fast set in ou, allowing it to outspeed stuff like landorus-t and neutral nature base 100s, as well as life orb to boost its wallbreaking power. i do not feel mega scizor is a great choice on this team, as you have already said you don't like it. you have keldeo and jirachi which can check dark types and fairies, respectively. honestly, i feel like one of the better choices here is mega slowbro, because this actually patches up a weakness to the team in dd zard x and can also help against other dangerous threats like azumarill and mega lopunny. it also pairs nicely with kyurem-b which can beat a lot of its counters and keldeo helps to overwhelm and weaken mega slowbro's answers as well as its own answers.
