Lucario Squad :D!

[Fraxure]

Ok first off, this is my very first RMT. I have had 30+ battles with this team winning most of them, but i would like some people's opinions on the team. I need to find out things like a major weakness or something like that. Anyway on to my team :3



(Ezio)Lucario @ life orb
steadfast
252attk/252spe/4hp
adamant
-Swords dance
-Drain punch
-extreme speed
-crunch

This guy is the real deal, he has been know to sweep entire teams with just 1 SD boost! Overall the team is based around this lucario because he is my favorite pokemon. Also for the moveset, i have drain punch over Close Combat for 2 reasons, 1- no def drops and 2- life regain. With the life orb +stab +SD boost it has no trouble OHKO'ing a pokemon. Crunch is because i found him getting walled by many ghost types/ psychic types but now that problems solved.


(Eon) Latios @ choice specs
252spA/ 252spe/ 2hp
timid
levitate
-Draco meteor
-surf
-HP fire
-Psyshock

This guy is my special sweeper of choice, his draco meteor is a monster to everything exept most steel types. HP fire, and surf are for coverage, and psyshock is an awesome way to take care of any blissey switch-ins. Overall a great mon thats here to stay.


(Foundry) Heatran @ leftovers
248hp/ 252spD/ 8spA
calm
flash fire
-lava plume
-earth power
-stealth rocks
-roar

This heatran has awesome synergy with lucario, and can become quite deadly after tanking a fire hit. He is a decent Stealth rocker, and can roar out anything that trys to set up. Im not to sure about roar though, he is quite slow. Overall good support pokemon for lucario.


(kurenai) Scizor @ choice band
Adamant
technician
248hp/ 252 atk/ 8 spe
-bullet punch
-u turn
-pursuit
-super power

This is my revenge killer of sorts and also part of my voltturn core. Bullet punch for obvious reasons, same with u turn. Superpower and pursuit are prone to change but are working for now. Out of all of them in looking to change scizor's set the most.


(rio) Landorus @ choice scarf
Naive
252atk/ 252 spe/ 4spA
Sand force
-Earthquake
-Stone edge
-u turn
-HP ice

This is my lead mostly and the next part of my core. All of the moves are good on him except HP ice i cant find a good replacement. he is also my answer to sand teams with his sand force ability. He is good to get momentum in the start of the match or for a quick switch for lucario to have a free turn to set up.


Rotom-W @ leftovers
modest
252spA/ 252spD/ 4hp
levitate
-volt switch
-hydro pump
-will-o-wisp
-pain split

Rotom-w is a good suport pokemon to make sure pokemon dont harm lucario much. Spreading will-o-wisp to other sweeoers and being the final part of my core. He is an effective way to stop many sweepers and also get the jump on water types with volt switch. Anything that is immune to volt switch wont like a hydro pump surely. And finaly we have pain split whick come is handy for when im faster and lower hp than a pokemon.


Thank you for reading and have a nice day :3.

Not going to give a full rate because I'm on my tablet and typing is crazy hard on this thing, but the most important mistake I see is lack of close combat on Lucario. I know you said you like recovery and don't like the drops, but Lucario isn't precisely a bulky mon. Most neutral hits will OHKO, so the defense drops nor recovery matter much. On top of that, Close Combat has -twice- the power of Drain Punch. You don't need to recover damage when you're pretty much one-shotting stuff after a swords dance, and I believe everyone will tell you the same.

EDIT: if you want Latios to deal with Chans/Bliss better, tricking it the specs is usually a better idea, so I suggest ypu replace Psyshock or HP Fire for it.

Also, 3 of your pokes are missng EV spreads.

i just had it on there because he isnt bulky and if hes slower then he wont be able to last the whole sweep without the recovery. At least thats what i have found. Also i have fixed the ev problem lol.

Hey, I got your PM to rate this team, so that's exactly what I'm going to do. It's a really cool team with a great use of Lucario as the sweeper. You do have some holes in the team, and I would like to help patch up these holes. Okay, looking deeper into your team, you seem to be weak to most sets of Keldeo-R, most notably the Scarf set with Icy Wind. Keldeo can literally come on a resisted hit, and start doing some heavy damage to your team with its amazing coverage moves and even though you have Rotom-W to take these attacks, it won't like taking repeated STAB Secret Swords. To help remedy this situation, I suggest you try out a Nasty Plot Celebi in place of your current Specs Latios. The advantages to having Celebi in your team is that it resists both of Keldeos STAB moves and can heal off of it using Giga Drain and hurt it with Psychic. As for your sets, I'd change Lucarios ability to Justified instead of Steadfast. With Justified, Lucario can easily switch into a dark type attack and gain a +1 Attack boost. Also on Lucario, you want to use Close Combat over your current Drain Punch. As you might know, Lucario needs to hit as hard as possible to accomplish a successful sweep and Close Combats high base power allows Lucario to deal heavy damage. Well, that's all I have to say for this team. I really hope I helped. Have fun and good luck with your team!
