Blitzkrieg (German, "lightning war") is an anglicized word describing all-mechanized force concentration of tanks, infantry, artillery and air power, concentrating overwhelming force and rapid speed to break through enemy lines, and once the latter is broken, proceeding without regard to its flank.
Hey everyone. This is my first attempt at a UU Hyper offense team. Usually I use a Balance, Bulky Offense (sometimes), or even stall ( Shaymin and Yanmega periods). This period though I got bored with so many copy paste spike stacking teams that balance just wouldn't work, so I made this suicidal, fast, offensive team.
The strategy of the team is to relentlessly attack the opponent until they break, and then to mop up the rest of the team. All of my Pokemon are strong right off the bat (only 1 setup sweeper), and can almost all sweep at a moments notice. Since it's such a fast paced team, I check threats through kamikaze and revenge killing. I don't have a designated sweeper or a defensive core, so all my pokemon are dispensable and I sac them accordingly when I need to. It's been my most succesful team this period, although my rating isn't very high (just enough to make requirements) since I played around with so many other teams with the same account.
So here is team Blitzkrieg!

THE FRONTLINE
Kabutops (M)@
(Focus Sash)
Ability: Swift Swim
EVs: 36 HP/ 252 ATK/ 220 Spd
Nature: Adamant
-Stealth Rock
-Stone Edge
-Waterfall
-Aqua Jet
Breaking down the front line is the first step towards victory. I used to have Omastar in the lead position, but decided to switch to his shellfish brother Kabutops, who has all the characteristics of a great lead for an offensive team: Stealth Rock, priority, and it can hit hard and be of use later in the game. Omastar slowed down the pace of the team way too much, and spikes weren't even necessary for me to win, so I chose Kabutops recently. Stealth Rock is necessary to weaken up Moltres, Swellow, Arcanine and countless others that can cause me trouble. Stone Edge(although I consider the more accurate Rock Slide sometimes) and Waterfall are STAB. I decided to go Waterfall> Rapid Spin for the more powerful secondary STAB and to 2KO Donphan, and I dont really need Rapid Spin anyways. Aqua Jet picks off Focus Sash users and is good priority for later in the match. I chose Focus Sash to ensure Rocks go up, and to ensure I beat Moltres leads (its always great to remove Moltres from the match early).220 Spd is to beat Adamant Absol, and is also faster than most Rain Dance Kabutops so I can get a Waterfall in.

Air Support
Swellow (F)@
( Toxic Orb)
Ability: Guts
EVs: 4 Hp/ 252 Atk/ 252 Spd
Nature: Jolly
-Brave Bird
-Facade
-U-turn
-Quick Attack
An important part to breaking down the oppositions defenses is to overwhelm their air support with your own. Swellow hits like a truck, even before Guts, and it hits like a bulldozer with it activated. Purely through physical attacks does Swellow break pokemon down, and that helps my other pokemon later on. It's usually an early- mid game pokemon, U-turning in and out and also is my answer to Venusaur, and a potent revenge killer with its blazing speed. The set and everything are standard, so I shouldn't need to explain them.

Tank
Venusaur (M)@
(Life Orb)
Ability: Overgrow
EVs: 4 HP/ 252 SpA/ 252 Spe
Nature: Timid
-Sleep Powder
-Leaf Storm
-Sludge Bomb
-Synthesis
The Heavy artillery moves in once the defensive line has been breached. Special Life Orb Venusaur is great, and could be considered the "tank" of my team, since it hits hard, is practically the only "bulky" pokemon on my team, and I use it to take on several Pokemon. First off, Special Venusaur hits very hard. Leaf Storm rips through bulky pokemon, and hurts even with -2 SpA. Sludge Bomb is a great sweeping tool and gets decent coverage, and hits Moltres and Altaria hard since most of the time they expect the physical set. About the physical set: I have no clue why the hell people still use Swords Dance Venusaur. It's literally a free switch for Moltres and Altaria once Sleep Clause is activated, and it doesn't hit very hard without a Swords Dance, AND it's walled super easily. Sleep is sleep and it's great, and Synthesis keeps me alive. Venusaur is pretty essential since it makes a good switch into bulky waters, and Resttalk Milotic would be practically impossible to break without it. Also, Sleep gives me some great momentum and has won me several games.

Strategic Removal
Dugtrio (M)@
(Life Orb)
Ability: Arena Trap
EVs: 248 Atk/ 216 Spe/ 44 SpD
Nature: Jolly
-Earthquake
-Stone Edge
-Sucker Punch
-Substitute
Remove key components of the defensive machine, and it falls apart. Dugtrio was originally here to support an Alakazam in a very old iteration of this team, and is still here to now support Swellow, Venusaur and Mismagius by removing (primarily) Registeel and the occasional Aggron, although it can pick off a Chansey or Clefable here and there. Duftrio is a potential suspect for a reason: it gets rid of some walls and it's great at what it does. It almost always gets rid of Registeel unless it's a douchebag Curse version, letting Swellow and Missy roam free. I use the best Dugtrio set (imo), since Life Orb gives the most versatility and Sub is great to dodge Sucker Punch from the likes of Absol and Houndoom, and Sucker Punch works very well behind a sub. Unlike what a lot of people think, Dugtrio can very realistically sweep a team late game. It's got great speed, coverage, and decent power so a weakened team will be broken apart. Its also a good revenge killer for Toxicroak, Blaziken, Moltres, Alakazam and a ton more.

Infantry x2
Mismagius (F)@
(Leftovers)
Ability: Levitate
EVs: 80 HP/ 252 SpA/ 176 Spe
Nature: Timid
-Nasty Plot
-Shadow Ball
-Thunderbolt
-Will-o-wisp
Having achieved a breakthrough into the enemy's rear areas, mobile forces attempt to paralyze the enemy's ability to react. Moving faster than enemy forces, mobile forces exploit weaknesses and act before opposing forces could formulate a response. This somewhat unique Missy set works as a sweeper and a defensive pivot against fighting types and some other physical attackers. Mismagius is a fast and powerful sweeper with a Nasty Plot boost. Shadow Ball and Thunderbolt give the best power and coverage, and WoW is the twist. It lets me come in on the likes of Hitmontop, Donphan, Regirock, burn them, and set up in their face. It also can cripple unsuspecting Pursuiters like Drapion and Absol, and makes Registeel less of a hassle. The EVs give me some decent bulk while outspeeding max base 95s, since I never really found max speed on Missy necessary.

Blitz!
Primeape (M)@
(Choice Scarf)
Ability: Vital Spirit
EVs: 32 HP/ 252 Atk/ 224 Spe
Nature: Adamant
-Close Combat
-Ice Punch
-Punishment
-U-turn
The final plow through the opponent! Choice Scarf Primeape is incredibly fast and an extremely potent revenge killer. A fast Choice Scarfer I think should be used on every heavy offense team, or else you'll always lose to speed boosters. Primeape keeps DD Altaria, RP Torterra, DD Feraligatr, Absol, Mismagius and Rain Dancers in check, while also breaking through Umbreon, Miltank and Chansey. He's just great, quite powerful, and picks off weak teams very easily and often. Nothing much else to say here.
