ORAS OU Mixed Mega-Absol Balance

Hello pokemon people!
First of all, I want to say I do not take credit for this team.
I got this team from a YouTuber I watch called Mega Mogwai. ( https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCvUZXLShMx-FZvoadtb8xBQ )
I'm posting this team simply because I love this YouTuber and this
team is really cool.

Absol-Mega @ Absolite
Ability: Justified
EVs: 252 Atk / 4 SpA / 252 Spe
Naive Nature
- Sucker Punch
- Knock Off
- Ice Beam
- Fire Blast

This is the main focus of the team. Instead of the UU Swords Dance set, this mixed set nearly OHKOs tank Garchomp and has a chance to OHKO Lando-T with Ice Beam. Fire Blast does a lot of damage to
Scizor (both mega and non) and Ferrothorn.

Heracross @ Choice Scarf
Ability: Guts
EVs: 252 Atk / 4 SpD / 252 Spe
Jolly Nature
- Megahorn
- Close Combat
- Stone Edge
- Knock Off

Although its mega is much more powerful, this set puts in a lot of work. Most people wouldn't expect it to be scarfed which helps to catch people off guard. Not much to say other than this mon packs a punch. Also, guts is to switch into Will-O-Wisps from Rotom. 'Nuff said.

Hippowdon @ Leftovers
Ability: Sand Force
EVs: 252 HP / 144 Def / 112 SpD
Impish Nature
- Earthquake
- Stealth Rock
- Slack Off
- Stone Edge

Hippowdon is a great wall overall. It takes Mega-Loppuny's High Jump Kicks all day. Again not much to really say about this mon. It's move coverage is pretty standard but that's because it gets the job done.

Talonflame @ Leftovers
Ability: Gale Wings
EVs: 248 HP / 252 SpD / 8 Spe
Careful Nature
- Brave Bird
- Will-O-Wisp
- Roost
- Bulk Up

Sp Def Talonflame is a great mon. It's not very popular but it works so well. The combination of this spread and set is soooooo good. It also comes in clutch a lot. Plus the defensive synergy with Hippowdon is amazing.

Starmie @ Life Orb
Ability: Analytic
EVs: 252 SpA / 4 SpD / 252 Spe
Timid Nature
IVs: 0 Atk
- Hydro Pump
- Psyshock
- Thunderbolt
- Rapid Spin

With Talonflame, a way to remove hazards is needed. Also, Keldeo would run through this team without Starmie. It also provides a lot of offensive pressure. There has been some thought about changing Thunderbolt for Ice Beam.

Ferrothorn @ Leftovers
Ability: Iron Barbs
EVs: 252 HP / 88 Def / 168 SpD
Relaxed Nature
IVs: 0 Spe
- Gyro Ball
- Leech Seed
- Power Whip
- Spikes

Ferrothorn is just Ferrothorn. A great wall and can cause some damage if needed. Really all there is to say about this mon lol.



Well there you have it, the mixed Mega-Absol team. Miguel, the YouTuber, is one of my favorite battlers. He's sorta out of the meta but he's still a great battler. Also, this team was taken from what I see as his prime. Hopefully he comes back strong as Sun & Moon comes out. Please leave comments of any ideas you guys might!
