Ambipom (M) @ Focus Sash
Trait: Technician
EVs: 252 HP / 4 SDef / 252 Spd
Jolly Nature (+Spd, -SAtk)
- Baton Pass
- Agility
- Nasty Plot
- Knock Off

This guy catches everybody off guard. I use agility, the set their rocks/switch (anticipating fake out) and i nasty plot and hang on with the sash then bp those to lucario. if i think i can get off another agility i will. knock off is to spite those who taunt me (whimsicott) cause he outspeeds everything else which is why he is used over mew as my bper.

Lucario (M) @ Life Orb
Trait: Steadfast
EVs: 252 SAtk / 252 Spd
Modest Nature (+SAtk, -Atk)
- Vacuum Wave
- Aura Sphere
- Nasty Plot
- Dark Pulse

give him those boosts and hes 6-0ing a team or tearing a massive hole in them if hes not predicted and an eq or cc is waiting for him, priority isnt an issue after hes been bpd to and hes outspeeding nearly everything with the agility boost. I love this guy, has won many games for me

Crustle (M) @ Lum Berry
Trait: Sturdy
EVs: 4 HP / 252 Atk / 252 Spd
Adamant Nature (+Atk, -SAtk)
- Stone Edge
- Shell Smash
- X-Scissor
- Earthquake

shell smash, hold on with with sturdy and dont worry about status with this set up, gets destroyed by hazards and priority </3 shame cause hes so awesome

Latios (M) @ Chesto Berry
Trait: Levitate
EVs: 80 HP / 16 Def / 252 SAtk / 160 Spd
Timid Nature (+Spd, -Atk)
- Thunderbolt
- Psyshock
- Dragon Pulse
- Rest

never seen this set on anyone, the speed evs just out speed non scarfed hydreigon which is the point and i like my defense at 200 so i put 16 into it lol if i feel that lucario is going to get cc'd or eq'd ill switch to this guy and follow the same concept as lucario except able to take hits and rest it off once

Hippowdon (M) @ Leftovers
Trait: Sand Stream
EVs: 176 HP / 252 Def / 80 SDef
Adamant Nature (+Atk, -SAtk)
- Slack Off
- Earthquake
- Stockpile
- Ice Fang

hippowdon tanks. i like the stockpile over rocks because i honestly cant remember to set the damned things up lol he helps take care of dragons and gliscor who is just a complete pain in the butt. after a stockpile or two hippo is taking hits and slacking them off like a champion

Excadrill (M) @ Air Balloon
Trait: Sand Rush
EVs: 4 HP / 252 Atk / 252 Spd
Adamant Nature (+Atk, -SAtk)
- Rock Slide
- Earthquake
- Swords Dance
- X-Scissor

Standard excadrill, sand it up and sweep late game. really never rely on sd at all this man can hit. hard.



I really have two waves of sweeping with this team. my bp sweep then my sand. phazers dont really affect my bp cause generally speaking people dont realize they are about to get slaughtered by poms' pass before its to late, the sand part is same build as everyone else's with the exception of no ttar i dont like his fighting weakness.

Threats:
Gliscor
i hate him, more than anything, his weak sp def is something i can usually exploit though

stalling
My team is made to win in less than 20 turns, more than that and generally its a loss for me

Quagsire
unaware, otherwise hes a fat ugly little troll

RAIN
GO AWAY SS KINGDRA AND FERROTHORN

I battle on pokemon online server btw so that combo above isnt illegal :( which is why i try to force it to wifi ou so i dont have to deal with it :)
Well tell me what you guys think :naughty:

Be as mean as possible, i know sand is nooby but its there and ima use it
 
uh, really. Rest Chesto Latios sucks unless you are using CM, CM Latios lacks the bulk to setup. Just run full Specs/Scarf Latios with Trick over Rest and Draco Meteor over Dragon Pulse.
 
First of all, you should really be using the standard Choice Specs Latios. There's no reason to use Latios over Latias if you want bulk and you aren't taking full advantage of his superior offensive output. Use an EV spread of 4 HP / 252 SAtk / 252 Spd and a moveset of Draco Meteor l Thunderbolt l Surf l Trick / Psyshock. Either move in the final slot lets you deal with Blissey but in different ways. The prior cripples walls by taking away their ability to switch moves while the later just kills Blissey; no questions asked.

Your team struggles a lot against Reuniclus especially the Trick Room variant. Once the dimensions have been twisted it can sweep your team using its excellent coverage and power. Calm Mind versions can also do some damage but certainly not to the extent of the prior. To remedy this problem try using a Swords Dance Scizor in place of Lucario. It still gives your team a Steel-type sweeper and while it may not cause as much immediate destruction it does handle your aforementioned problem which is a worth while trade. Besides, you have a more offensive Latios set and Excadrill to make up for the loss of damage. Here's the set:

Scizor @ Leftovers l Calm l 248 HP / 44 Atk / 216 SDef
Bullet Punch l Bug Bite l Swords Dance l Roost

I highly suggest the use of Calm Mind Virizion because it can decimate the forces of Sandstorm and Rain which eliminates most of the problems mentioned in your threat list. For example, Rotom-W, Gastrodon, and Quagsire are destroyed by Giga Drain while Gliscor and Ferrothorn are taken care of by Hidden Power [Ice] and Focus Blast. Its an excellent choice for this team because it patches up so many holes while still maintaining your team's offensive momentum. Use a Timid (+Spd, -Atk) nature and an EV spread of 4 HP / 252 SAtk / 252 Spd. Leftovers is recommended instead of Life Orb in this situation so that you won't be taking unreasonable amounts of damage at the end of each turn. Finally, use Virizion in place of Ambipom who is just out of place on a team like this. Hope these suggestions helped; good team and good luck.
