SV OU My first ever team is this any good? I would appreciate some tipps

eli-m27

Bronzong
Ability: Levitate
Tera Type: Steel
EVs: 252 HP / 124 Def / 132 SpD
Sassy Nature
IVs: 0 Spe
- Gyro Ball
- Stealth Rock
- Earthquake
- Iron Defense

A Strong defensive Pokemon to setup stealth rocks. In the whole team i didnt want to just pick overpowered pokemons that everbody uses, i wanted some uniqueness.

Haxorus @ Lum Berry
Ability: Mold Breaker
Tera Type: Steel
EVs: 252 Atk / 4 SpD / 252 Spe
Jolly Nature
- Dragon Dance
- Dragon Claw
- Earthquake
- Iron Head

Hits pretty hard with dragon claw, i think this one is the most replacable mon of the team. Probably need a faster sweeper.

Heatran @ Leftovers
Ability: Flash Fire
Tera Type: Grass
EVs: 252 SpA / 4 SpD / 252 Spe
Modest Nature
IVs: 0 Atk
- Magma Storm
- Earth Power
- Taunt
- Tera Blast

It was always one of my favorite pokemon thats why i wanted to build a team around it. The problem is, its my first ever team so i probably didnt pick really good pokemon to complement it.

Kingambit @ Leftovers
Ability: Supreme Overlord
Tera Type: Fairy
EVs: 236 HP / 252 Atk / 20 Spe
Adamant Nature
- Swords Dance
- Kowtow Cleave
- Sucker Punch
- Low Kick

strong in the endgame, to sweep the rest of the opponents team. Hard physical attacker, complements heatrans strong special attacking.

Greninja @ Choice Specs
Ability: Protean
Tera Type: Water
EVs: 252 SpA / 4 SpD / 252 Spe
IVs: 0 Atk
- Hydro Pump
- Dark Pulse
- Ice Beam
- Grass Knot

Fast sweeper and can be switched in against fire attackers due to bronzong and kingambits weeknesses.

Zapdos @ Heavy-Duty Boots
Ability: Static
Tera Type: Electric
EVs: 252 SpA / 4 SpD / 252 Spe
Timid Nature
IVs: 0 Atk
- Roost
- Hurricane
- Thunderbolt
- Volt Switch

Also didnt really know what 6th member i should take for the team. it looked pretty strong.
 
Hey, congrats on making your first team and trying to get into the community, to be honest with you, this team is gonna need some heavy reworks, you seem to try to make a bulky offensive team where you can take hits and hit back, but that's what I'm here for, let's begin

Big changes:

:Bronzong: -----> :great tusk:

Great Tusk @ Leftovers
Ability: Protosynthesis
Tera Type: Water
EVs: 252 HP / 16 Atk / 160 Def / 80 Spe
Impish Nature
- Rapid Spin
- Earthquake
- Knock Off
- Stealth Rock

Great tusk is one of the most used Pokémon in the game right now, becuase it does so much thanks to pure bulk + moves, the moveset + tera is the standard, you get hazard removal + knock off utility + rocks. The evs are something I personally like to use, 80 speed outspeeds enamorus after 1 rapid spin, and generall other mons too, so its a cool speed tier to be in, and 16 has a 50% to OHKO 0 hp and 0 defense gholdengo from full hp.

:haxorus: -----> :baxcalibur:

Baxcalibur (F) @ Loaded Dice
Ability: Thermal Exchange
Tera Type: Ground
EVs: 252 Atk / 4 Def / 252 Spe
Jolly Nature
- Dragon Dance
- Glaive Rush
- Icicle Spear
- Earthquake

while being the coolest dragon, we need something more powerfull overall, this is where baxcalibur gets in, it functions similar to the haxorus set with Dragon Dance and 3 attacks, I made it tera ground, so you can have a better matchup against toxapex with earthquake, but tera fairy is cool to avoid fairy and dragon type moves coming your way

:greninja: ------> :Iron valiant:

Iron Valiant @ Booster Energy
Ability: Quark Drive
Tera Type: Ghost
EVs: 248 SpA / 8 SpD / 252 Spe
Timid Nature
IVs: 0 Atk
- Calm Mind
- Moonblast
- Shadow Ball
- Encore

A very important thing most play styles require (exception being stall) is to have a speed check, a speed check is a Pokémon that can reliably out speed most of the unboosted meta, to exert offensive pressure, Iron Valiant is a great speed check because it provides power and speed, while having variety. Calm mind + moonblast and shadow ball allows you to boost and sweep weakened teams, encore is great because it can potentially lock mons into using useless moves (examples being locking sweepers into his set-up moves, locking kingambit into using kowtow cleave, etc.) and thus, you can sweep easily, the 8 SpD allows you to take a shadow ball from specs dragapult in case of an emergency

small changes:

the :heatran: set is gonna be a specially defensive wall, so you can still use heatran and pack a punch with it, but now you can take hits, from the special side and retaliate

:zapdos: is also gonna have a defensive rework, this spread allows you to outspeed max speed tusk and baxcalibur, and hit them with your attacks, static can also help other mons like valiant, gambit or bax thanks to the hax
