Very good evening Ladies and gentlemen of this community, tonight I came here to present an idea that I quite liked, using Medicham with 4 attacks in a mixed offensive. I will leave the equipment here plus my current rank using this equipment,
The team:

My current rank is 1586, nowhere near the 1600s and here are some replays that I managed to save,

As for how the team works, it is not something so complex or unique, Medicham is capable of putting pressure on almost everything that does not surpass it in speed, Charizard helps deal with Celebi, Jirachi and Metagross after a change, Swampert as my tank defensive, Regice as a good way to stop Suicune and Milotic inconsistently but something is something, Suittar is necessary for the arena and pursuit and finally Metagross with agility serves as a great sweeper next to tremendous monsters that are capable of pressure to almost everything.

As for the disadvantages and inconsistencies, they are my dependence on using Regice as a bomb against Suicune if she boosts herself too much or also Heracross if she manages to dodge my Charizard's flare, not to mention that Regice is my only lightning user which It leaves me at the mercy of Gyarados and some Starmies if Medicham doesn't manage to survive a Hydro pump and finish him off with a shadow ball, but if you know how to avoid those situations there won't be so many problems.
Finally, the alternatives on this team would be to change Regice to Blissey. or use Snorlax and super Jirachi instead of Regice and Metagross. In my opinion it is one of the best teams I have ever made and this is where my publication ends, I hope you liked it and long live Medicham.
bye
 
Hello.

I think if you're doing Jolly, then White Herb would be a great item to go with it so that you can outspeed and KO slower Salamence.

But I don't think Pursuit Tar is very helpful here. It's too passive for the kind of team you're using. And you're not totally in trouble vs Gengar since you have Regice and Charizard. Try a different Tyranitar set - DDTar (bulky I think) and MixTar are both possible options, but I suspect that if you use MixTar you would rather use RestTalk Suicune > Pert. But then you have to solve the defensive problem and maybe give your Metagross some bulk and Leftovers instead. Tricky.

Your pert can afford to be more offensive. I'd make it quiet with a lot of sp.atk investment.
 
Hi mate! I really like your team and seems like the same structure as mine right now!

What I don't see is the need of Pursuit TT at all, your team already pressures Gengar quite well, also there is 5 mons weak to spikes, so what I would do is trying Suicune as Vapicuno said and completely delete TT, maybe I would try an offensive Claydol so you patch up the spikes weakness, also have a good rock resist and another boom that seems nice in such an offensive team that threatens Gengar too. Also no need of sand, most if you have Sui.

My idea here is to have a good backbone to pivot Medi and MVP him through the match!

If you want to maintain your mons what is very legit MixTar seems quite interesting!

Good Evening, Vapicuno. An apology for the late reply, and yes, I was revisiting this team, and I do really need something better for the Gengar spot, and as Link407 said, Claydol and Suicune might be better since Suicune was one of the best teammates for. Regice About Claydol, I do believe that, and a slightly defensive set must be ok since Metagross is the win condition, and Suicune, I'm deciding between Rest Talk Cune or the sub CM Suicune
 
Alright Link407, I have tried the idea by using Sleeptalk Cune and claydol, but there is a gap since there are no sand salad sweepers like Heracross and Blaziken could be a problem, especially if these use endure https://pokepast.es/901e4486971e31.1That'shat why I decided to still use my current team structure, with Mixtar I may struggle with spikes, but at least I keep the chance to end hera and add more pressure https://pokepast.es/770db5f82f46bd8f I will attempt to use bulky ddtar in a couple of battles just to see the differences.
I do appreciate the advice for both vapicuno and you
 
I tried both dd tar and mixtar but honestly, suittar does fit better here for a single reason pursuit cheap damage
https://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/gen3ou-2473845135

aero would mostly do hp flying or double edge against medicham thing that suittar takes advantage to damage aero and that allows me to thread him and other cb like cb mence with hp flying also have another fire + grass coverage user its great and since beat up hits stronger depending the team mates, metagross,swampert and tyranitar are great support since medi adn zard attack base is mid and regice attack is awful
