So I wanted to build around an anti-meta threat, and this threat was Sub+CM Keldeo
Then, I realized it was really Mega Gardevoir weak as Hyper Voice penetrates Substitutes, and a CM boost or 2 isn't stopping it from KOing pony. I also realized it hated the Lati@s, and Celebi. There was one thing in OU that could demolish all of these at once:
Scizor! Mega Scizor is a monster in this metagame. Its bulky asfuq and has technician boosted priority. It could set up on Lati@s, which Keldeo lured out, as well as Celebi. I then realized this thing hated Skarmory, Landorus-T, and both of them share a common hatred for Slowbro. So I fixed this problem by adding:
Garchomp! Garchomp is a reliable SR setter, and I run a lure set to kill Landorus-T, Slowbro, and Skarmory to open up sweeps for Keldeo/Scizor. Then, with the core established, I now needed checks to the meta, in particular, something that terrorizes offense.
Latias terrorizes offense and can check Keldeo, Landorus, and put a dent in anything that doesnt resist Draco Meteor. Also clears hazards, which is a plus. Now, I needed a check to Mega Charizard X, Mega Gyarados, and Thundurus. The closest I could get for all 3 was:
Assault Vest Azumarill! Assault Vest Azumarill also terrorizes offense, and stacks checks with Keldeo and Scizor, so lure Garchomp is even more appreciated on this team. Last but not least, I needed a check for bird spam that could also function as a last resort revenge killer:
Jolly SD Talonflame! It can sweep, check bird spam, and more! Since most SD Talonflames are Jolly nowadays, it isn't much use for luring Thundurus. It, once again, enjoys lure Garchomp because it hates Slowbro and Landorus-T.
Without further ado, lets get to the team!
Without further ado, lets get to the team!
Keldeo @ Leftovers
Ability: Justified
EVs: 252 SpA / 4 SpD / 252 Spe
Timid Nature
- Substitute
- Calm Mind
- Scald
- Secret Sword
SubCM Keldeo is a monster. Like its great. You know that bitchfish that walls normal Keldeo? Well, it can't break subs for shit, so free sub for me. Now, I CM as I am behind this sub, and now you can't break it. You are forced to feed your mons to this monster of a pony. Also, literally fucking nobody prepares for this shit. It's crazy. Scald>Hydro Pump because PP and burns. Also doesnt miss when I need it to hit. Basically fuck your bitchfish. This set in particular preys upon passive mons.
Scizor @ Scizorite
Ability: Light Metal
EVs: 248 HP / 72 Atk / 112 Def / 76 SpD
Careful Nature
- Swords Dance
- Roost
- Bullet Punch
- Knock Off
This is Keldeo's partner in crime. Now, the reason I chose Scizor is because Keldeo is weak to Gardevoir(PMS Screams penetrate sub) and Scizor sets up all over dat and can clean/bust open holes for Keldeo. The EV spread had enough Special Defense to tank Gardevoir, Defense is for something important that I forgot, and Attack is in leftovers. Knock Off because its Knock Off and is a requirement for every team. Also, makes a SFD core with Latias+Azumarill.
Garchomp @ Life Orb
Ability: Rough Skin
EVs: 4 Atk / 252 SpA / 252 Spe
Naive Nature
- Fire Blast
- Draco Meteor
- Earthquake
- Stealth Rock
Good old Lure Garchomp. Fucks up Slowbro, Lando-T, Skarmory, Hippo, and everything that relies on their physical bulk to beat Garchomp. Not deadweight in matches without them because it is the Rock Setter. Life Orb because otherwise it hits like a bag of old men's dicks. Also has really great coverage and can open the way for a Scizor/Keldeo sweep by luring in their counters. It can fuck up a large portion of the meta, really well between coverage and barely passable power.
Latias (F) @ Life Orb
Ability: Levitate
EVs: 72 HP / 184 SpA / 252 Spe
Timid Nature
- Draco Meteor
- Psyshock
- Roost
- Defog
Keldeo check. Thats why it has Roost>Healing Wish. Bulkier spread allows it to take on shit better, and it can still pack a punch with Draco Meteor. Defogs because every competent team has hazard removal, and this is supposed to be a competent team. Anyways, the HP also hits a LO number, so ^_^. Basically beats shit and defogs away rocks. The extra bulk is necessary in tanking Zard Y, so thats why Latias>Latios. Its a really bulky piece of shit.
Azumarill @ Assault Vest
Ability: Huge Power
EVs: 240 HP / 252 Atk / 16 SpD
Adamant Nature
- Waterfall
- Play Rough
- Aqua Jet
- Knock Off
Azumarill is great glue, much like Latias, and can handle some other threats. It has quite literally huge power, and can bust some holes in shit. Also enjoys Lure Garchomp shenanigans because fuck Slowbro(seriously that thing is a fatass) and Skarmory. In turn, it forms an offense wrecking machine with Latias. The spread I chose in particular allows it to take on Zard X better. Also, synergizes great with Latias because it forms a solid defensive backbone against a portion of the meta(Keldeo, Zard-Y, and to an extent, Landorus)
Talonflame @ Sharp Beak
Ability: Gale Wings
EVs: 88 HP / 252 Atk / 168 Spe
Jolly Nature
- Swords Dance
- Roost
- Brave Bird
- Flare Blitz
My Birdspam check and tertiary sweeper. The speed jumps Raikou, and the HP is odd. Sharp Beak allows its Suicide Bird move to hit hard when unboosted. It's mainly my "oh shit" button when a member of the team slips up. Once again, enjoys Lure Garchomp because fuck Slowbro and Landorus-T. Wears down Heatran for Scizor, which is always a nice thing. I don't know why, but it always seems that its larger than it is when I'm posting it.(descriptions)
