Another RMT. (UU)

twistedsinews

Now, this is my UU team that either FAILS or WINS. There is no in between. There are a few members that I'm very unsure about, and probably need to kick, and a few movesets and EV spreads that probably aren't optimal. That's why I'm asking for your help!

By the way, I just realized that I was in the process of revamping this team and gave up.

Polly the Primeape @ Choice Scarf
Nature: Adamant (+Atk, -SpA)
Ability: Vital Spirit
EVs: 40HP / 252Atk / 216Spe

-Close Combat
-Stone Edge
-Earthquake
-U-Turn

This thing is THE BOSS. I switch in on something resistant or a grass type, and it just rapes. Earthquake for electrics, U-Turn for grass-types and to run from psychics, and Stone Edge for coverage. I love Primeape, but I'm scared to use Anger point. Hitmonlee is pretty cool, but could it really take over this niche in this team? And should I change the item?

Elle the Espeon @Mind Plate
Nature: Modest
Ability: Synchronize
EVs: 40HP / 200Spe / 200SpA / 68SpD

-Shadow Ball
-Flail
-Psychic
-Signal Beam

Works a lot better now. Thanks, you guys. Signal beam hurts EVERYTHING Grass/Poison think Psychic's coming, so they switch into a Psychic, and BAM. Signal Beam. Again, maybe U-Turn.

Galinda the Gastrodon. (Anyone get the reference?) @ Leftovers
Nature:Relaxed (+Def, -Spe)
Ability: Sticky Hold
EVs: 252HP / 252SpD

-Earthquake
-Ice Beam
-Recover
-Surf

I love Gastrodon. I had on on my ingame Pearl team. It's typing makes it boss, and it can withstand an unforseen (weak) grass attack and hit back with an Ice Beam for a lot of damage or a OHKO. Then switch into Hilary or someone else resistant to grass and predict their switch or kill. Galinda is pretty cool, and makes an amazing special sponge.

Hilary the Houndoom @Leftovers
Nature: Timid (+Speed, -Attack)
Ability: Flash Fire
Evs: 6HP 252Spe 252SpA

-Dark Pulse
-Flamethrower
-HPIce
-Will O Wisp

Probably my favorite part of my team. HPIce predicts ground switch ins and rapes Torterra and any dragons. If it doesn't kill, it forces a switch. Dark Pulse is for psychics, and if they're bulky, Will O Wisp helps to wear them down. Heck, it wears down ALL physical sweepers and gives me extra time to scout them out because of the attack drop. I'm feeling like running Taunt in the set, but instead of what?

Velma the Venysaur @ Leftovers
Nature: Calm
Ability: Overgrow
EVs: 244HP /14Def / 252 SpDef

-Energy Ball
-Sleep Powder
-Leech Seed
-Sludge Bomb

The only thing that this thing is missing is Aromatherapy. It's sturdier than Roserade, so I went with it.

I'm not really sure that this team works together effectively. A the few key members that I have are amazing, but the others are pretty...eh. Any suggestions that you have will help me greatly. Thanks a million.
 
Tops has laughable SpA, go with something like Stone Edge over Earth Power, or Rock Slide if you don't like the Acc.

and just a thought, but IIRC Blaziken makes an awesome Revenge Killer and could be tried out over Primeape
 
Odd team, I must say. Weird lead. What exactly doe sit do for you? I sugget making primape your lead. I have used him before with great success. Vital spirit messes with sleep leads and U-turn lets you get the heck away froma counter and switch to a check/counter. It can also come back and revenge kill or try a late game sweep. If you want a strong, efficient subseeder use shaymin. yes, its an OU of UU, but it works well. Subs on the switch and fires off powerful moves. I suggest

shaymin @ leftovers
timid
4 hp/ 252 SAtk/ 252 Spd
seed flare
hp ice
substitute
leech seed

Spinner wise, tops is a no go. Use somethng like hitmontop or claydol. Probably top because priority is something every team needs. Yes, I know two fighters and 2 psychic resists, but honestly how often do you see psychics in UU? I don't see much need for a BP espy actually. Maybe a specs espy will work better. It adds some offense and immediate power to this team. Possibly a trick set. If you don't want two choice users then try a sub espy. Subs when it can force somthing out and sweeps from behind. Not really sure about the set. With houndoom and ape switched I don't know if doom will do much more than it did. It rarely sweeps any team and is too easily killed. Not really sure what to add actually, possibly a SR user. Sr is alwyas useful on any team. Being that your team is oddly offensive, it needs all the help getting damge in that it can get. You might use a balanced registeel set. It resists many things, can add a useful explosion to the team and serve as a great tank to stop things from sweeping this team. I can't think of anything else, but if I do i'll let you know. I hope I helped. ^^

Something else I came up with....a spinner may not be necessary since you have no pokemon weak to SR. Think about tthat. It leaves you a spot to fit something new in.
 
Offensive Shaymin owns you so hard, especially with Growth. I would replace something with Crobat, this will help you against strong Fighters to.
 
With only Houndoom special sweeping, the BP from espeon may not be very useful, especially as Houndoom will probably have been weakened abit if not KOed as it leads. If you do go with Shaymin, an espeon BP may not be useless. but...
That espeon has a huge fear of Scarfed Honchkrow or any Honch which will cut short its boosting time, yawn will not affect him. In this case i would follow the advice of others; espeon needs substitute if its looking to sweep or if its looking to pass.
The team is slightly odd, but imo you should try and preserve that alittle. Surprise can kill and it is always more fun with pokes you like.
 
Okay, I have a Shaymin weakness.
How about I bring in a standard Guts Swellow to kill off Grass-types and potentially sweep with Facade?
Testing...
