Eevee team - OU RMT

Well the ghosts that might get out that I usually OHKO are Gengar only xD well there isn't much to pick from besides Shadow Ball tbh Calm Mind perhapes but I dunno
 
Haha I see. Well I think you can safely put CM in as Psychic will OHKO Gengar as well for even more damage. If you don't like CM, you can test Reflect as theoretically it should help in dealing with DD Mence. You don't have to listen to me though as Shadow Ball is still semi-viable in hitting Rotom forms with (since you can hit Celebi with Signal Beam). It's just a suggestion. Hope this helped. :]
 
Or if you have an extra move slot you could throw in another wish *wink wink nudge nudge* rather then having another attack because "well there isn't much to pick from besides Shadow Ball tbh Calm Mind perhaps" Eevee teams aren't amazingly bulky or defensively typed you have no Dragons and Steels to abuse monstrous amounts of resistances so you need to use those Wishes they all get to have them heal each other any moveslot you don't see a good attack for should always be considered for a wish or other support option rather then throwing in a sub par attack for no reason don't compromise your ability to attack for wish and protect on every member but don't neglect them either.
 
yeah that was a option to add a wish but having 2 wishes already having another 1 might be a bit reduntant but then again it's an eevee team which as you said isn't exactly bulky per-say except ofc vappy and umby. So tomorrow I'll try those 3 options and see what benefits me the most Calm Mind, Reflect (highly doubt it), Wish or maybe something else not sure yet.
 
I doubt you need another wisher. While wishers are great on Eevolution teams I think Espeon is way too frail to effectively Wish whether it be for itself or for its teammates. CM is probably the most practical option.
 
Added Glaceon instead of Espeon for more bulk and is a good option for a 3rd with supporter as well as good sweeper. Might change Shadow Ball for Signal Beam on this one.
 
I'm unsure about Glaceon over Espeon. You'll have to give us the results after you're done testing.
Your team's is developing nicely, though.

I tried Glaceon but I didn't like it as much as Espeon TBH altough he has more bulk the wish support isn't needed as much as espeon's sweeping capabilities. So the team will remain the same later tonight I'll post some more updates to the main team ;)
 
You mentioned that your unsure about Espeon or Glaceon. Seeing as Espeon has an amazing base SpA, and is usually Trick bait , i recommend running a Choice Spec's set. Choice Spec's STAB'd Psychic makes huge dents in other teams especially if they are oblivious to the fact the Espeon wont really do much

I recommend this set:

Espeon @ Choice Specs
Synchronize
Timid/Modest (more SpA or more Speed, whatever you prefer)
32 HP / 252 SpA / 224 Spe

- Psychic
- Hidden Power Fire
- Shadow Ball
- Trick (For those sticky situations)
 
yeah thanks Carchomp about that recommendation I wasn't even thinking of using trick but it would be great in some cases like gyarados comes in mind I will try it out
 
I want to throw Magnet Rise out there as an option on Jolteon... Jolty's gotta be one of the best users of it, his speed being as insanely high as it is, and it eliminates his only weakness, which a lot of leads like Hippowdon, Gliscor, and other Ground-types won't be able to do much about.
 
I just saw your team and I kinda fell in love with it, so I started using it on shoddy. However, you might want to look at your Tyranitar Weakness, since with a Choice Scarf he outspeeds Flareon's superpower.
 
I would highly recommend the replacement of Jolteon in the lead position by Vaporeon, who is a far more effective lead. This is not a joke, and I have even used it on a non-Eeveelution team. Here is my preferred set, though there are other item options, requiring a change to hydro pump from surf.

Vaporeon @ Life orb
Modest nature
188def 252spatk 68spe
-Surf
-HP Grass
-Wish/Hydro Pump/Ice beam
-Quick attack

This will beat more or less every lead bar Roserade most of the time. Here is how it fares against some common ones:

Azelf - Surf + quick attack should finish it off.
Swampert - Hp Grass OHKOes easily. This is guarateed unlike Jolteons OHKO
Metagross - You outrun and 2HKO with Surf. Metagross kills Jolteon with Earthquake
Aerodactyl - Surf + quick attack for a guranteed 2HKO. Jolteon is OHKOed by Aerodactyl's Earthquake
Jirachi - Surf 2HKOes, and its attacks do very little.
Roserade - you lose, but you can break its sash with quick attack
Infernape - Easy 2HKO with surf + QA. Jolteon gets 2HKOed by Fake out + Close combat
Tyranitar - surf 2HKOes, and TTar beats Jolteon convincingly
Gliscor - Surf OHKOes
Heatran - Surf OHKOes

Vaporeon is far from useless outside the lead position, with great bulk allowing it to survive its lead matchup with respectable health. Its powerful water move(s) will often deal huge amounts of damage to Vaporeon's electric-type switch-ins such as Magnezone, Scarf Rotom, Jolteon and Electivire, who are all OHKOed most of the time by a LO Hydro Pump. It can also provide wish support to the team, without letting up any offensive momentum.

Good luck
