This is my second RMT, 1st UU
This is, for the most part, a copy of my OU team, with the OUs And BLs substituted
My team is offensive, with almost all sweepers
The problems I have are mostly with stat-raisers, although for the most part this team does well
I have a positive record for UU, so it can't be too bad
Lead - Scyther @ Focus Sash
Technician
4 HP 252 Attack 252 Speed
Jolly
-Bug Bite
-Aerial Ace
-Quick Attack
-Brick Break
This is my lead. My anti-lead. He reliably disposes of the most common leads in UU. Focus Sash almost always guarantees 2 attacks, enough to KO at least 1, maybe 2 opponents. EVs/Nature are maximum sweeping potential. Bug Bite being his primary STAB. Aerial Ace and Brick Break hit almost everything else, with quick attack as a finisher.
Possible Changes:
I thought about protect instead of Brick Break/Quick Attack, for use against Fake Out users. Any ideas for that?
Special Sweeper - Arcanine @ Life Orb
Flash Fire
4 Attack 252 Speed 252 Sp Attack
Hasty
-Dragon Pulse
-Flamethrower
-Extremespeed
-Will-o-wisp
This set is a sweeper set, and the only thing it can't KO or seriously hurt are Water types. I chose Life Orb over Choice Scarf/Specs because its not too difficult to switch in that way. Flamethrower for most Pokemon, Dragon Pulse for Dragons, or something I can't KO with Flamethrower. Will-o-wisp is my dying move.
Possible Changes:
Choice Specs/Scarf
Different Move For Will-o-wisp
(Possible) Physical Sweeper - Tauros @ Salac Berry
Anger Point
4 HP 252 Attack 252 Speed
Adamant
-Earthquake
-Return
-Stone Edge
-Substitute
I use Tauros as a mid-game sweeper, I try to sub down until either I get Critical Hit, in which case it is almost always game over for them, or I get my Salac Berry boost and attempt a sweep anyway. Stone Edge lets me hit Ghost types with Levitate, something I was missing before with Rest Talk Tauros.
Possible Changes:
Salac Berry for Liechi Berry
Swords Dance Sweeper - Absol @ Focus Sash
Super Luck
252 Attack 252 Speed 4 Sp Def
Jolly
-Swords Dance
-Psycho Cut
-Sucker Punch
-Night Slash
In the absence of Entry Hazards against me, Absol becomes a nightmare for the other team. I Swords Dance until I am below 100% health, Focus Sash allowing at least 1, then proceed to sweep with Sucker Punch, or one of the other moves if I know I am faster.
Possible Changes:
Lead, so Entry Hazards don't aatter (I didn't like this, but if you can give me a valid reason, I might try again)
Luck Sweeper - Drapion @ Scope Lens
Sniper
252 Attack 252 Speed 4 Sp Def
Jolly
-Night Slash
-Cross Poison
-Earthquake
-Pursuit
My Critical Hit sweeper. Night Slash and Cross Poison with A +2 Critical Hit stage boost + Sniper results in Rage Quits :D. But seriously, it works great, and pursuit hits fleeing Pokemon, although I'm having trouble predicting that, so any tips would help. My only problem is that its a lot like Absol.
Possible Changes:
Keep only Drapion/drop Drapion
Mixed Sweeper - Sceptile @ Life Orb
Overgrow
252 Attack 200 Speed 56 Sp Attack
-Rock Slide
-X-Scissor
-Leaf Storm
-Brick Break
This is not expected by most, and hence shuts most down. I open with a Leaf Storm, then attack with whatever fits best. I don't usually get to use overgrow, but this set works well nonetheless.
Possible Changes:
All physical (Leaf Blade)
Add Earthquake instead of X-Scissor
Different EV Spread
That's All, Please Add Some Constructive Criticism.
