Help my team

OU RMT so rate away and make this team better

Ok Well i decided to make a rmt cause my last one failed and i think i need some help with my team since it is kinda basic. So every rate is appreciated.
swampert.png
Swampert
Relaxed Leftovers 240 hp 216 defense 52 sp defense
Stealth rocks
Ice beam
Earthquake
Roar
I chose a Swampert lead because it can always get rocks up unless it gets taunted and it also is my sp defense and phazer if things try setting up on me. Ice beam for dragons and earthquake for coverage.

Scizor
Adamant Choice Band 248 hp 252 attack 8 speed
Bullet punch
U-turn
Pursuit
Superpower
Well this is just a basic Choice banded scizor my scouter and revenge killer.Revenge with Bullet Punch and Scout with U-turn Superpower for blisseys and normal stuff pursuit for ghosts like gengars.
infernape.png
Infernape(Inferape)
Naive Life orb 252 Sp attack 64 attack 192 speed
HP Ice
Close combat
Flamethrower
Grass knot
Well Mixape is awesome for late game sweeping Hp ice for dragons that try to get in the way. Close combat for stab and for blissey and heatren mostly. Flamethrower over fireblast since flamethrower has better accuracy and stab. Grass knot for water types and ground types. I ussualy bring infernape in on something i know i can outspeed and kill. Infernaoe ussualy always gets one kill in the game.

rotomcut.png
Rotom-c
Bold Leftovers 252 hp 168 sp defense 88 speed
Dischage
Shadow ball
Will-o-Wisp
Pain split
Well i chose rotom-c because it's a bit offensive and defensive. I put discharge on this set because it gets stab and is a good move overal. Shadow ball for stab.Willowisp to cripple things like scizor's and tyrantar's. Pain split to gain health and deal a bit damage.
cresselia.png
Cresselia
Bold leftovers 252 hp 200 defense 52 sp defense
Ice beam
Charge beam
Rest
Sleeptalk
Well cresselia is just the best wall ever in my opinion. Charge beam to possibly get a sp attack boost since cresselia's attack stats aren't that special. Ice beam for dragons and ground types that would try causing me trouble. Rest to gain health and cure statuses. Sleep talk to deal damage while asleep since cresselia is very vulnerable while asleep.
kingdra.png
Kingdra(Mandra)
Adamant Lum berry 180 hp 160 attack 168 speed
Substitute
Dragon dance
Waterfall
Outrage
I chose kingdra because it has such good typeing in my opinion. I chose 180 hp so that it could have some bulk after the sub since substitute is gonna be taking a big chunk of hp. 160 attack so that it's attack could be deadly. 168 speed so that after a dragon dance it could outspeed 115 based speed pokemon. Subtitute if i suspect a status or to scout for the move my opponet is gonna use. Dragon dance to have a better attack stat and speed. waterfall for stab and those pesky fire types. Outrage for other dragons and power.

Thing i have trouble with:
Breloom i can't find a way to switch into this ussualy cress for spore but then when i sleep talk i always get rest. pretty annoying
 
I Got You VM ^^

At The First Glance, Gyarados Gives You Trouble And The Only Way To Cripple It Is By Using Rotom.Other Then That, Its A Good Game For You.You Might Want To Put Choice Scarf On Rotom To Counter Gyarados.

Next, You Have Lucario & Infernape Weakness.Like I Said Putting CS On Rotom Gives You Alot Of Checks Like Lucario.You Lack Recovery For You Team.After LO Recoil, Rotom Locked To A Move Etc, Its Going To Go Down Fast.I Would Recommend You Using Vaporeon > Kingdra With 212 Def/ 60 SpA/ 232 SpD With The Moves Surf/Wish/Protect/ Hp Electric Or Roar.

Good Luck!

EDIT: Sorry For The Shitty Rate I'm Busy
 
Hi ghetto,

Definitely keep Kingdra on the team, as it allows you to set up on bulky waters and Starmie. However, I would recommend switching to the new Chesto Rest set:

Kingdra (M) @ Chesto Berry
Ability: Swift Swim
EVs: 144 HP/160 Atk/164 Spd/42 SDef
Adamant nature (+Atk, -SAtk)
- Dragon Dance
- Waterfall
- Outrage
- Rest

This set has quite a lot of bulk, only being 3HKO'd by Life Orb Starmie and +1 Offensive Suicune's attacks. The advantage here is that you can switch into several resisted attacks, and when you want to set up, use Dragon Dance repeatedly until finally using Rest to recover your health and begin to sweep.

I'm not a big fan of Swampert leading here, as you'll run into problems with a lot of popular leads like Roserade and Machamp. I would replace Scizor with an Anti Lead Metagross, and use that to lead the team:

Metagross @ Lum Berry
Ability: Clear Body
EVs: 236 HP / 228 Atk / 20 Def / 24 Spe
Adamant nature (+Atk, -SAtk)
- Meteor Mash
- Earthquake
- Bullet Punch
- Explosion

Now you can take down both Roserade and Machamp leads, as well as many others due to the availability of high powered attacks + Bullet Punch. Explosion can be used later in the game at your discretion.

Metagross does have some problems against Heatran and Infernape leads, but Swampert deals quite favorably with both.

Also, Rotom and Cresselia are slowing down the pace of your team quite a bit, so consider SubSplit Gengar and Scarf Flygon over them. The former keeps the useful immunities and the ability to sweep, while the latter gives you a crucial Electric immunity and revenge killing abilities.

Good luck with your team!

Thanks will try on Po later on when ihave time thanks for the help
 
Ice Beam isn't hitting much, and with Salamence gone I don't think that Ice Beam is a necessity. Try something like Psychic which gives you a fairly powerful STAB, and allows you to take take out Gengar if he comes in when you only have 1 CM up.
