Balanced Team OU

Across the generations I always played balanced teams, once in a while a try a gimmicky team.
I have not yet tested this team on Gen VI, but I tested a very similar one on Gen V, only missing the fairy and mega stuff, I try aiming for a more meta call, since Aegislash and Sticky Web is going to be a thing, I accept any suggestion, including whole team changes, except for Gengar, I won't switch Gengar for other pokemon

Lead - Forretress@Leftovers
Bold - 252HP, 252Def, 4 Spe; Sturdy
-Stealth Rock
-Toxic Spikes
-Rapid Spin
-Volt Switch

I'm testing Toxic Spikes as an option along Stealth Rock to cripple teams that does nto have prtection againt poison, on past gens I used to play with Gyro Ball, but I almost never used it.

Physical Sweeper - Mega Lucario@Lucarionite
Adamant - 4HP, 252Atk, 252Spe
-Sword Dance
-Close Combat
-Bullet Punch/Extremespeed
-Blaze Kick

Blaze Kick is for covarage only, I'm having a bad time deciding either Adaptability Bullet Punch or Extremespeed to outspeed and deal considerable damage to Talonflame.

Special Sweeper - Gengar@Focus Sash
Timid - 4HP, 252 SpA, 252 Spe
-Destiny Bond
-Thunderbolt
-Sludge Bomb
-Shadow Ball

Destiny Bond is always something that makes me thing in Gen 5 where weather was a thing it was useless, but now where weather was nerfed, the only thing that can damage him is SR, which is easily disposed.

Early Game Sweeper - Cloyster@King's Rock
Adamant - 4HP,252Atk, 252 Spe; Skill Link
-Shell Smash
-Icicle Spear
-Rock Blast
-Razor Shell/Ice Shard

I usually put him into play after setting hazards and attempt the sweep, I still have some doubt about which move takes the last slot, Razor Shell for coverage or Ice Shard for Priority.

Physical Wall - Ferrothorn@Leftovers
Relaxed - 252 HP, 48 Def, 208 SpD
-Gyro Ball
-Power Whip
-Protect
-Leech Seed

This is a guy for stalling and for poking, leech seed -> protect -> attack -> protect.

Special Wall - Florges/Sylveon(Post-Bank)@Leftovers
Calm - 252 HP, 4 SpA, 252 SpD
-Wish
-Arometherapy/Heal Bell(Sylveon)
-Calm Mind
-Moon Blast

This guy was tested as a Espeon with Psychic replacing Moon Blast, I really don't have other than I'm sure that Wish will work better with Florges/Sylveon, I decided to pull a cleric, because there is always some team that like to abuse on status and stuff and it simply erase those teams from the map
 
Rule 3 said:
Have some actual words in your post beyond your six Pokemon and their moves. Not following this makes your post quite boring to read and rate. All Pokemon should have a good reason for being in your team anyway, so why not post that reason? If you are having trouble with this one, start by giving an explanation for each team member. Why are they there? What role do they serve? How do you get them in? Then, give an explanation of how you would open with the team and how you would go about using it. All of these things help people rate your team and allow us to offer more helpful advice.

This does not mean add one sentence saying "Standard x" or "all-around awesome" after each Pokemon. If you put thought into making the team, you can put thought into posting it. The standard description length required is three to four lines, if you need more insight look on the detail part, check out the RMT Archive.

PM descriptions that follow that rule and I'll unlock your thread.
