ORAS UU Kingdra FE HO (First RMT)

[TheIrishMcIrish]

So I decided to make this team when I heard of the absurd critical hit chance after focus energy and scope lens (100%!!). Along with sniper, this turns Kingdra into a dangerous weapon. But a problem I had was speed. Kingdra is extremely slow. I decided to make a hyper offensive team with sticky web hazards to lower speed. Here is the team at a glance:

Galvantula (M) @ Focus Sash
Ability: Compound Eyes
EVs: 252 SpA / 4 SpD / 252 Spe
Timid Nature
IVs: 0 Atk
- Bug Buzz
- Energy Ball
- Thunder
- Sticky Web

Galvantula has one role and that is to set up sticky webs. He has a focus sash to ensure that he will set it up. Even though Azelf outspeeds, he has bug buzz to wear it down. Theres not much else to say. He is only here to set up hazards as a suicide lead.

Kingdra (F) @ Scope Lens
Ability: Sniper
EVs: 252 SpA / 4 SpD / 252 Spe
Timid Nature
IVs: 0 Atk
- Draco Meteor
- Hydro Pump
- Ice Beam
- Focus Energy

Kingdra is a killer. With a focus energy and a scope lens, it has a 100% to hit with a critical hit. This works well with spamming draco meteors on the opponent. Hydro pump and ice beam are also good coverage moves. With sticky webs and max speed, it is able to outspend most Pokemon that are not in the air.

Metagross @ Choice Band
Ability: Light Metal
EVs: 248 HP / 252 Atk / 8 SpD
Adamant Nature
- Bullet Punch
- Earthquake
- Ice Punch
- Zen Headbutt

Metagross absorbs the dragon and fairy type moves that Kingdra is weak too. Bullet punch hits extremely hard with choice band and is good priority. The other moves are good coverage, but I am open to moves that might work better.

Nidoking @ Life Orb
Ability: Sheer Force
EVs: 252 SpA / 4 SpD / 252 Spe
Timid Nature
IVs: 0 Atk
- Earth Power
- Sludge Bomb
- Ice Beam
- Flamethrower

Nidoking works well with the other members of the team. He had a great ability and takes no recoil from life orb. He is also an incredible sweeper with sticky webs. He has many coverage moves that hit like a truck. Again, I am open to better moves that are possible.

Hydreigon (M) @ Choice Scarf
Ability: Levitate
EVs: 252 SpA / 4 SpD / 252 Spe
Timid Nature
IVs: 0 Atk
- Draco Meteor
- Dark Pulse
- Flamethrower
- Focus Blast

Hydreigon is my revenge killer and does a great job at it. He can come in and "drop a draco" if needed. He also has good coverage that works well.

Alakazam (M) @ Life Orb
Ability: Magic Guard
EVs: 252 SpA / 4 SpD / 252 Spe
Timid Nature
IVs: 0 Atk
- Psyshock
- Energy Ball
- Focus Blast
- Dazzling Gleam

Last and probably least is Alakazam. He was the last addition just because I was looking for a strong and hard hitter. He doesn't provide much coverage and I am open for better Pokemon that take care of more threats.

Thank you for taking the time to read this. I am open to any suggestions. Remember, this is my first rmt and I don't know how to get into big details. :)

Just a little advise, add a 1-2 sentence description for each move on each pokemon. Otherwise the thread will be locked when staff see it. Just a little reminder :). Also, make Alakazam mega, it is better then life orb Alakazam.

 

[TheIrishMcIrish]

All right. Thanks for the advice!! :)

EDITED:
Unfortunately, Mega Alakazam is BL, so that would move my team up to OU, which I'm not sure this team would be good for.

Mega Alakazam is BL? I didn't know, sorry! I'm just so used to playing anything goes cause I only recently started playing the others, lol

If it were me, I might want a bit more of a physical lifeline, because Metagross might not be enough. Maybe Sharpedo as a replacement for something? It gives you a Mega opportunity and it's got decent Speed.

If you were going to put sharpedo in i would would say replace him for alakazam. If he needs psychic damage then he can just use zen headbutt on metagross.

Your team is pretty weak to opposing Hydreigon. You have nothing to resist its STAB coverage and it doesn't get affected by the webs. Banded BP from Metagross helps, but is not too reliable.
Maybe try Mamoswine > Nidoking. I'd also suggest rocks on a team like this. It'll help Zam and your other offensive mons KO stuff easier.

Mamoswine (M) @ Life Orb
Ability: Thick Fat
EVs: 252 Atk / 4 SpD / 252 Spe
Jolly Nature
- Stealth Rock
- Earthquake
- Ice Shard
- Icicle Crash

That ice priority will also be helpful for Aerodactyl, Honchkrow, and basically any flying type that won't be affected by webs.
