First RMT

Here we go:

Gengar @ Focus Sash
Hasty - Levitate
4 HP / 252 SpA / 252 Spe
  • Shadow Ball
  • Explosion
  • Hypnosis
  • Counter
Probably my favorite strat out there currently because of how awesome it is as a lead. It's really unfortunate that sandstorm simply invalidates the set, but if they don't have Tyranitar/Hippowdon, it has the potential to take 2-3 of the opponent's pokes down with it.

Blissey @ Leftovers
Bold - Natural Cure
148 HP / 252 Def / 104 SpA / 4 Spe
  • Seismic Toss
  • Ice Beam
  • Softboiled
  • Thunder Wave
Standard walling bliss. I tried Sing for awhile but apparently Seph is the only one who can do that and make it work.

Skarmory @ Leftovers
Impish - Keen Eye
252 HP / 96 Atk / 156 Def / 4 Spe
  • Brave Bird
  • Spikes
  • Whirlwind
  • Roost
Standard Physical wall. I set up Stealth Rock and Spikes, and then start winding them out.

Swampert @ Leftovers
Impish - Torrent
252 HP / 6 Atk / 252 Def
  • Avalanche
  • Waterfall
  • Earthquake
  • Stealth Rock
I wanted to try some kind of bulky water other than Gyarados, so I think this will do. With the amount of Physical threats in OU, having a Poke that can take some hits as well as dish them out seemed like the right call.

Weavile @ Expert belt
Jolly - Pressure
40 HP / 252 Atk / 216 Spe
  • Brick Break
  • Ice Punch
  • Night Slash
  • Pursuit
Standard revenge killer.

Azelf @ Life Orb
Timid - Levitate
36 HP / 252 SpA / 220 Spe
  • Nasty Plot
  • Flamethrower
  • Psychic
  • HP Fighting
Late game plot sweeper.


I've only recently started playing shoddy, and I'm pretty bad. I would be really appreciative of any help I can get on improving so that I might be able to actually win a match. ;_;

Any help you guys can give me will be very much appreciated.
 
On Skarmory, I'd probably go 252 Def EVs. You're making yourself more open to physical attacks. Infernape with 24 Atk EVs and Flare Blitz is a guaranteed 2HKO, and seeing how they usually have Max Attack with an even nature, it's pretty risky. You're also 1HKOed by a Choice Band Infernape.

Speaking of which, you have a pretty large Mixape weakness. Nothing can switch in safely. Starmie or Gyarados are your best choices, so you'll have to decide what to switch them with.
 
I don't like the fact that your 2/3 dangerous Pokemon die to Weavile.

Fully Prioritized SD Luke w/ Sr support owns you as well. I think you need a bulkier sweeper>Azelf and Gliscor>Skarm to better take hits.
