Welcome friends, before we go on let me start off by saying this probably won't be the most flashy thread as I am not a regular on here. I spend a lot of my free-time on showdown laddering and counter-laddering and have share multiple teams that I've created with friends. Each team i build has a specific purpose to it, whether it be hyper-offense (one of my favs for low ladder) to semi-stall (my least favorite). The following team I'm about to share w/ you guys was effectively the most effective team on the ladder for a brief period. Without further ado let's introduce our team captain!
Heracules
Heracross
Item: Heracronite
EV's 252 ATT / 252 SPE JOLLY NATURE
Bullet Seed / Rock Blast / Pin Missile / Close Combat
This set allows you to outspeed Mega Gardevoir pre-MEga and OHKO it will Pin Missle, it also ensures you out peed all base 70 pokemon barring a Scarf. With the support coming from the team, Jolly nature really is needed and most of the time you don't even notice a drop in power.
Heracross can be a very valuable lead in certain situations and most often than not will be a win condition. With its coverage it can OHKO a lot of the top tier threats in OU. It can be a very good to counter-suicide elads such as Azelf and Breloom.
Mega Hera has trouble in the OU meta because of it's terrible speed tier, but paired with the right team mates, it's turned into a lethal wall-breaker and late game sweeper.
Thundurus / Leftovers
EV's 252 SpA / 252 SPE NATURE: Timid
Thunderbolt / Nasty Plot / Hidden Power Ice / Thunderwave
This set supports Heracross extraordinary well, as paralyzing threats that Heracross can't outspeed like Mew, Lati twins, Alakazam,and Gardevoir. At the same time a defensive Thundurus doesn't have the longevity Heracross needs to thrive. Thundurus must be able to threaten the Pokemon that Heracross can't deal with otherwise like Garchomp, Lando, and Gliscor.
Nasty Plot effevtivley lets Thundurus function as a set up sweeper if Heracross needs to be used as a wallbreaker instead.
