It's just counter intuitive really. 'Sets up Swords Dance to potentially sweep.' 'Next turn U-Turns outs' Makes you wonder why you'd set up in the first place... But I suppose I can't talk (I've never been No. 5 haha), and obviously this team seems to be working out for you! Nice job :)

Hmm...honestly, you might be better off with your current Metagross set then. Dual STAB in Meteor Mash and Zen Headbutt is a staple, and your team lacks priority, so BP is definitely a must. You could replace Earthquake with Ice Punch, but then your Metagross is sort've walled by opposing...

Knock Off Clef...that's pretty cool! I'm not sure how useful it will be though; if you find yourself being shut down by too many Scizors or Ferrothorns, then consider switching to Flamethrower. But if you like it (and it works), stick with it! I myself love using unusual stuff - it catches your...

I agree with s0me1 b0red, with 2 Pokemon who take 50% of the health on switch in (assuming Zard hasn't mega'd yet) and a Pokemon with a Focus Sash, it's really important that you are able to get Stealth Rock off your side of the field. Life Orb might suit your Latios better, and you could...

Your team looks really good to me! I do have some things I'd like to comment on though. HP Electric Keldeo is perfectly viable. It allows Keldeo to hit Azumaril...but other than that, there's not much else you can do with it (might be nice to hit Gyrados with but that's not overly popular, plus...

I would just like to add to AzureRain's post about your Dragonite. I myself have tried using a sort of mixed Dragonite in a Rain Team, do abuse the STAB and accurate Hurricane and also Thunder, whilst having the best priority move in the game (Extremespeed). But honestly, I could never really...

Prankster Rain Dance on Sableye is pretty neat, but it's really not worth it UNLESS you have a Rain Team. Still, if you want to use Rain Dance, maybe you could look into giving Sableye a Damp Rock instead of Leftovers? It gives you 8 turns of rain instead which might be more useful than 4...

You need to give a description for each Pokemon. You need to tell us why you picked those moves/EVs/items etc. If you don't help us, we can't help you!

Overkill most things? Can you give us an example? And why 168 Attack? Can you give us some calcs or is that just a random number?

Hmm...I think your team looks fine, but if you wanna use Spikes on Ferro and Rocks on Heatran you could sub out Flash Cannon for Toxic. With Bisharp, you should have Fairies covered (but don't be too risky with him), so having a Steel type move on Heatran isn't necessary. As mentioned by New...

That is what you call a check. A counter is something that can safely switch in on an opposing Pokemon, and force it out. A check is something that cannot switch in on a Pokemon, but can force it out. Lopunny can definitely outspeed and knock out Greninja, but it can't safely switch in on an...

I'm not sure if this counts as an 'other metagame,' but I often play Random Battle when I'm bored. And one of the silliest things I've seen in the Random Battle gamemode is how it's actually possible to get a Rotom-Fan with an Air Balloon. If the problem is not immediately obvious, let me...

I'm not sure why it's not quickbanned already. It doesn't matter whether it's quickbanned or whether it's suspect tested; either way, the end result is the same. GG MegaMence.

Could you explain why you chose some of the EV spreads on some of your mons? Especially Thunderus...I'm not sure why you've invested in 5 different stats. You should try and avoid spreading your EVs out over a Pokemon. Rather than having one, all around decent Pokemon, it's better to have one...

HP Rock Lilligant? Lovin' it!
