ORAS OU Gliscor + Mega Slowbro

[nelynel12]

Hello everyone, I am pretty new to the forum, so I don't know how to do spoilers and sprites. However, I'll still keep it descriptive enough (as much as I can)

So, me and a buddy made this together and we wanted to to make a bulky offensive team that had Gliscor and mega slowbro as the cores.
Here is the team.

Raikou @ Choice Specs
Ability: Pressure
EVs: 4 Def / 252 SpA / 252 Spe
Timid Nature
- Thunderbolt
- Volt Switch
- Hidden Power [Ice]
- Shadow Ball

I needed something that was Fast and Strong that can check manphy, rotom, and any other water mon that can be a threat to Gliscor. So, I went with specs Raikou. I gave him shadow ball for type coverage and for times where I know I am being switch out on. He is also my main lead at this point in time.

Slowbro @ Slowbronite
Ability: Regenerator
EVs: 252 HP / 80 Def / 176 SpD
Bold Nature
- Calm Mind
- Psyshock
- Slack Off
- Scald

Core. There nothing really much to say about Slowbro. He checks keldeo pretty hard and the regenerator allows me to constantly attempt to set up. The only problem I have with him is if they set up before me on a switch, they can really screw me over.

Heatran @ Leftovers
Ability: Flash Fire
EVs: 248 HP / 192 SpD / 68 Spe
Calm Nature
- Stealth Rock
- Toxic
- Protect
- Lava Plume

I needed a safe switch in for electrics. Gliscor gets wreck by HP ice that most electrics carry so, Heatran can safely switch in and set up pretty nicely. He is also a nice switch for fairies despite me not having flash cannon. They usual fall for the bluff and switch out and give me a free toxic, or rocks.

Gliscor @ Toxic Orb
Ability: Poison Heal
EVs: 244 HP / 8 Def / 200 SpD / 56 Spe
Careful Nature
- Swords Dance
- Facade
- Earthquake
- Roost

The other core. Gliscor is has been iffy with me tbh. I found him amazing against slow to mid bulky pokemon after I set up, but the fact that he can get out sped by a lot forces me to switch out from the setup. Which is fine, I guess he does his job well.



These next two pokemon were chosen after I saw that I had two major weakness to my team.

Tangrowth @ Assault Vest
Ability: Regenerator
EVs: 252 HP / 4 Def / 252 SpD
Sassy Nature
- Giga Drain
- Knock Off
- Earthquake
- Hidden Power [Ice]

He his here to check mega-Dianice. I played a game where she wrecked my entire team, so having tangrowth as a safe switch in against her plus rotom helps keeps my main cores intact to be able to set up.

Mandibuzz @ Leftovers
Ability: Overcoat
EVs: 248 HP / 136 Def / 108 SpD / 16 Spe
Impish Nature
- Foul Play
- Roost
- Defog
- Knock Off

Another pokemon that destroyed the team was Hoopa unbound. So, I needed something to check it pretty hard. I also needed a spinner/defogger. So, mandibuzz was chosen.



Okay, that is my team. (I hope this is good for my first try)

Thanks in advance.

I think that status are a problem for your team. Celebi in place of Tangrowth can besides absorbing status heal your team with Heal Beal, since after 2 CM the best way to defeat Mega Slowbro is using Toxic. Thunder Wave can help against Fire types in switch or Baton Pass for momentum.
The EVs are to survive 2 Moonblast Mega Diancie with Stealth Rock on the field, 2 Flamethrower Mega Manectric and 2 Icy Wind Choice Species Keldeo, the rest in Defense for a good mixed bulky, 32 EVs Speed outpeed Jolly Tyranitar.
I hope I've helped.

Celebi @ Leftovers
Ability: Natural Cure
EVs: 252 HP / 74 Def / 152 SpD / 32 Spe
IVs: 0 Atk
Calm Nature
- Recover
- Thunder Wave / Baton Pass
- Giga Drain
- Heal Bell

I question the use of Tangrowth on an OU team, and I agree with the above two suggestions: Celebi or Venusaur both seem good replacements. If you decide to change it to Celebi, you could also drop the Mega Slowbro for a regular Slowbro like suggested above, and replace Raikou with Mega Manectric. They fill the same role, except Mega-Mane provides more speed and power.

I'm not so sure about what Gliscor's EV spread accomplishes for you; if it isn't for tanking a specific hit then the 244 HP / 252 SpD / 12 Spe spread should be considered. This spread lets you tank much more special attacks.

CLICK ME!!! (seriously)

Since you wanted to know how to make hide tags (spoilers), I decided why not show you.

Basically, all you have to do is type this:

[hide=Title of hide tag]Text inside[/hide]

Here's an image on how it looks like when you're creating a thread.

Anyways, you also wanted to know how to add sprites, right?

Basically, just find a sprite gallery. This one's a good one. For example, if I wanted to get Absol's sprite, I would add absol.gif at the end of the url, so that it looks like this: http://play.pokemonshowdown.com/sprites/xyani/absol.gif. Now, just click and drag the sprite to this tab. When you're dragging it, it should have the sprite where your cursor is. It's very simple.

If you want shiny sprites, add -shiny at the end of xyani. It should look like this now: http://play.pokemonshowdown.com/sprites/xyani-shiny/.

Same idea for back sprites! Add -back at the end of xyani. It should look like this: http://play.pokemonshowdown.com/sprites/xyani-back/

Shiny back sprites are more complicated, but not too much. Just type it like how you're going to type the url for back sprites (http://play.pokemonshowdown.com/sprites/xyani-back/), and then add -shiny to the end of that, so it looks like this: http://play.pokemonshowdown.com/sprites/xyani-back-shiny/.

Some sprite examples:
• Absol's regular front sprite: http://play.pokemonshowdown.com/sprites/xyani/absol.gif
• Absol's mega front sprite: http://play.pokemonshowdown.com/sprites/xyani/absol-mega.gif (it's simple; just add -mega at the end!)
• Absol's back sprite: http://play.pokemonshowdown.com/sprites/xyani-back/absol.gif
• Absol's mega back sprite: http://play.pokemonshowdown.com/sprites/xyani-back/absol-mega.gif
• Absol's shiny front sprite: http://play.pokemonshowdown.com/sprites/xyani-shiny/absol.gif
• Absol's mega shiny front sprite: http://play.pokemonshowdown.com/sprites/xyani-shiny/absol-mega.gif
• Absol's shiny back sprite: http://play.pokemonshowdown.com/sprites/xyani-back-shiny/absol.gif
• Absol's mega shiny back sprite: http://play.pokemonshowdown.com/sprites/xyani-back-shiny/absol-mega.gif

The sprites (in order):

Remember, all you have to do is click on the sprite and then drag it to the place where you're creating your post!

I hope this quick tutorial helped! :]

Hope I helped!

Hello.
Your descriptions are too short to fit the RMT rules requirements.
I encourage you to PM me an updated version of this team with beefed up descriptions, and if you're new to this, join the Mentor Program. I'll be unlocking this thread after that.

Have a nice day.

PS: I know you have 3 sentences etc. BUT, I don't consider "Another pokemon that destroyed the team was Hoopa unbound. So, I needed something to check it pretty hard. I also needed a spinner/defogger. So, mandibuzz was chosen." as a description even close to being adequate.
