I think you should switch Defog and Knock Off on Scizor and Mandibuzz. Mandibuzz may be SR weak, but it has leftovers to compensate. It has more special bulk and can switch in on threats such as Heatran on the turn they put up rocks and get it off immediately. When you bring in Scizor you really...

Choice Band Azumarill is probably what you are looking for to replace Conkeldurr. It checks Mega-Luc, Bisharp, hard counters Char X, and in general deals more damage than Conkeldurr while still having that priority.

Use Psychic over Focus blast on Lando. It lets you 2HKO Venu/Gliscor/Lando-T/Rotom-W. Focus Blast doesn't really do anything.

To solve your Char Y/Volcarona problem I would recommend switching Lando-T with Lando-I with SR, Earth Power, Rock Slide, and Psychic. You already have Mandibuzz to cover most physical threats, and Lando-I might just be useful as you have nothing above the 100 speed tier currently. Switching...

Minor thing about the smashpass set. You should Shell Smash first, then Spore, so you can Baton Pass for free while your opponent switches instead hoping your recipient doesn't get wrecked on the pass.

I feel like Choice Band at least needs to be mentioned. It ensures a clean OHKO on Aegislash with Knock Off, making it a good switch in if you don't expect them to Sacred Sword on the switch. Since you're just going to be firing off Knock Offs most of the time it makes sense to make sure it does...

8 speed was to outrun other Aegislash and get a Shadow Ball in first. I actually changed it to 12 now to outspeed min -speed TTar.

I really don't feel like Lati@s belongs in the A+ tier. It can't safely switch into most threats in the A or S tier. Every set is bait for Aegislash to switch in and fire off a Shadow Ball, Genesect/Scizor to switch in and get a free U-Turn, Mawille to get a free sub. If they don't have trick...

The best way to deal with Lucario is to switch in Aeglisash. If they SD on the switch, use King's Shield to check for EQ/Crunch. If they Crunch you can just kill it the next turn with Shadow Ball since their attack is halved. If they EQ, switch to Lando since you know they won't have Ice Punch...

I really don't see the point of HP Ice on Aegislash. With an Weakness Policy boost Shadow Ball OHKOs everything that you would use HP Ice for. Sacred Sword is used mainly to OHKO Tyrannitars and Bisharps on the switch-in, which could really help because nothing in your team wants to switch into...

You have no Stealth Rock user which would really come back to haunt you with Talonflames and Pinsirs everywhere wrecking your team if Rotom-W goes down. I recommend switching SD for SR on Excadrill since you rarely would have an opportunity to SD up before being forced out by something else. Or...

I disagree. Wish + Protect is too slow and gives the opponent a free turn to set up or switch out. An extra turn of burn or leech seed won't do anything because if they aren't able to kill Chansey they are going to switch out anyway.

You should run max speed on Smeargle. It's more useful than max special def. Shadow Claw is pointless on Excadrill. For Genger and Aegislash, you can just use EQ, and you shouldn't be staying on on Trevanent/Gourgeist/Jellicent anyway. I would recommend replacing it with either SD or Iron...

Updated with newer pokemon. I tried Sylveon but I don't really like it over Clefable because Magic Guard is just really strong. I've found that a good way of dealing with Gliscor using Clefable is to just predict the Protects and use Softboiled or CM on those turns instead of just spamming...

Mega-Mawile isn't really that strong. The secret is to not switch out and let it get a sub up. If it just walks in, every single one of your pokemon either outspeeds it or can tank some hits and still do damage back. I don't see how you are having a problem with Genesect either. If it's has a...

What does Bullet Punch offer over Extremespeed or Flash Cannon on Lucario? From my experience using it the only thing I ever bullet punched were Fairies, but even a not very effective CC with SD up kills most of them too. Extremespeed would help you get over Talonflame and Flash Cannon would...

ChestoRest Rotom-w is generally better than Pain Split. It can absorb status better and has more reliable recovery. Pain Split isn't that great because to get max benefit you need to be low on health, and if you are low on health Rotom's low speed makes it easily killable before you can use it...

Hi. I've been lurking around since gen 4 and finally decided to make a RMT after I stopped making teams that sucked. I'm 25-3 with this team so far with adding minor tweaks, but since I play it on my main account I don't move up very high on the ladder since I only get a small amount of points...
