Hello everyone, I have decided to make a team based on Mega Slowbro. Mega Slowbro is such a good setup sweeper. I have never used Mega Slowbro before and would appreciate suggestions.
Changes in Bold
Mega Slowbro
Slowbronite, Regenerator
248 HP, 80 Def, 180 SpDef
Bold Nature
-Calm Mind
-Psyshock
-Scald
-Slack Off
This is the Smogon recommended EV spread for mega bro. I try to keep him from mega evolving as long as possible to keep regenerator into play. Once Bro starts seting up, his defenses are much too high for many teams to break. Scald is very good STAB with a nice burn chance. I originally had flamethrower but due to Magnezone for steel types, I chose psyshock. Slack off is to keep it healed up. After it megas, it can't be hit by a critical hit so it can be unstoppable in the right conditions.
Chesnauht
Leftovers, Bulletproof
Impish Nature
252HP, 252Def, 4 Atk
-Leech Seed
-Drain Punch
-Spikes
-Spikey Shield
Originally Gliscor, I decided to switch it to chesnaught in fear of a mega gyarados sweep. This is also a solid switch into bisharp. The ev spread and nature maxes out defense. Leech seed and leftovers gets you very fast recovery. With Spikey shield, this can wear down physical attackers very fast. Spikes is always good to have. This has been great in my defensive "hazard core".
Chansey
Eviolite, Natural Cure
Bold Nature
4Hp, 252 Def, 252 SpD
-Toxic
-Stealth Rock
-Wish
-Protect
Originally Clefable, but my team lost to volcarona from turn 1. I went with chansy as it is extremely bulky and is a good wish passer. With its immense health, Wish can bring life back into a dying team. Toxic is great to put a timer on threats. Stealth Rock is to finish off my defensive "hazard core" with Rocks and spikes. Protect is to let them take more damage with poison and get a guaranteed wish.
Couldn't upload Magnezone picture for some reason:D
Magnezone
Choice Scarf, Magnet Pull
Timid Nature
252 SpA, 252 Spe, 4 SpD
-Volt Switch
-Thunderbolt
-Flash Cannon
-Hidden Power Fire
Magnezone was brought for two reasons, to deal with steel types and ice types. Thanks to magnet pull, this gets free ko's on Ferro and Skarm and Scizor. This also revenge kills bisharp(with no low kick). Volt switch is great momentum. Thunderbolt is powerful STAB. Flash Cannon is powerful STAB. Hidden Power Fire is for Ferro and scizor
Tornadus-T
Assault Vest, Regenerator
252 Spe, 96 SpA, 160 HP
Hasty Nature
-Hurricane
-U-Turn
-Heat Wave
-Knock Off
So far, this is a fairly bulky team, so I wanted a fast, bulky mon. Tornadus was perfect. This thing is extremely versatile. Hurricane is powerful STAB, if it doesn't miss. U turn and regenerator is what makes this thing my personal favorite competitive mon. Heat Wave is there only for Ferro. Knock off is very useful in many situations. (Chansey, Scarfers, etc.)
Thanks Perenial for the EV spread.
Serperior
Life Orb, Contrary
252 SpA, 252 Spe, 4 SpD
Timid Nature
-Leaf Storm
-Dragon Pulse
-Hidden Power Fire
-Taunt/Glare
Serperior is here for one reason: Bulky water types trouble this team. Leafstorm can easily turn this into a win condition as a +2 Serperior can OHKO a lot of the meta. Leafstorm is primary STAB to easily pop Water types like opposing Slowbro, Keldeo, Azumarill, and more. Dragon Pulse is good coverage. Hidden Power Fire is there again for Ferro. I only have 3 mons that dont have trouble with ferro. Taunt is very useful against stall. This thing can taunt, set up with leafstorm and sweep stall. I prefer taunt but glare is a solid option.
Threatlist
Weavile
Charizard Y
Hazards
Probably more that I haven't seen yet.
