Welcome to Smogon! Take a moment to read the Introduction to Smogon for a run-down on everything Smogon, and make sure you take some time to read the global rules.
I'm still fairly new to competitive play but I've found more time recently to get on showdown and play some. I would like to solidify my team before I train it up on ds so all advice is welcome just please give good critiques and explanations so I can better evaluate the advice for team changes...
So I tried this out and it works pretty well. Early game pivot and after threats and priority users are gone mid to late game sweeping isn't that difficult. That being said I like the spatt autotomize set the best but I just so happened to get a perfect adamant and decided to give it some use.
So I got a perfect iv adamant honedge and am not sure what to run. I was thinking
Aegislash @ weakness policy
Adamant
252 hp 252 att 4 spe
Autotomize
Shadow claw
Sacred sword
Iron head
Set up autotomize and hope weakness policy activates and proceed. Any thoughts?
I replaced pursuit with Defog to handle hazards and switched to life orb. I'm still checking threats but havnt really found anything that completely destroys the team. I choose to keep superpower to handle steels with something other than goodra and I don't usually need pursuit as much. Thanks...

I'm going to try out greninja in Aegislash's place like you suggested tomorrow and see how that fairs. Also with defog running around spikes doesn't get a lot of use on klefki so I'm thinking about replacing klefki completely if I use greninja. Taunt greninja lead and sr on gliscor. Any...
Very true about gengar and I'm trying the fling set now and it works pretty good so I'm going to keep it for a while and see how it goes. Any thoughts on conkeldurr over aegislash? And thanks for all the input.
What do you think about giving life orb to gengar to get rid of the ground weakness and switching Aegislash with bulk up conkeldurr to help with darks and lose another ground weakness. I like the idea of gliscor over hawlucha but I think I like toxic over toxic orb fling for multiple uses and a...
My first rmt. I'm relatively new to competitive I played a little 4th gen but not much so I'm not sure about threats and such. Any advice is welcomed and appreciated.
