ORAS OU My team built with love

Davitri

Aurorus(Tundra)
EVs: 252 SpA, 252 Spe, 4 Def
Item: Life Orb
Nature: Timid
Ability: Refrigerate
Moves:
-Rock Polish
-Freeze-Dry
-Hyper Voice
-Earth Power

I chose Aurorus because, first of all, I LOVE Aurorus. He is also a great attacker and can usually take a hit pretty well. His Freeze-Dry also destroys Swampert and Quagsire, and Hyper Voice can do really good damage. Also, did I mention that I love Aurorus?

Chansey(Pinky)
EVs: 252 Def, 252 SpD, 4 HP
Item: Eviolite
Nature: Impish
Ability: Natural Cure
Moves:
-Soft-Boiled
-Thunder Wave
-Heal Bell
-Seismic Toss

I always thought that Chansey was evil, but when she's on your side, things are much different. Being able to paralyze, then being able to restore status problems, do decent damage, and then heal herself? Yes, please.

Eelektross(name pending)
EVs: 252 HP, 252 SpA, 4 Atk
Item: Assault Vest
Nature: Quiet
Ability: Levitate
Moves:
-Thunderbolt
-Volt Switch
-Flamethrower
-Giga Drain

Despite Eelektross being fairly slow, he can take damage and dish it back out! The Assault Vest just adds to that great bulk, and Volt Switch lets him get out of the fray when he needs to. Giga Drain also lets him heal later on when he needs to.

Rhyperior(Nimrod)
EVs: 252 Def, 212 HP, 44 Atk
Item: Leftovers
Nature: Adamant
Ability: Solid Rock
Moves:
-Rock Blast
-Toxic
-Stealth Rock
-Earthquake

I use Rhyperior because he is a great physical wall, so he can take hits, and not only deal some back, but can also use Stealth Rock. Toxic is also a good exit move when he is about to leave.

Aegislash(Anduril)
EVs: 252 HP, 252 SpD, 4 Atk
Item: Weakness Policy
Nature: Sassy
Ability: Stance Change
Moves:
-Iron Head
-King's Shield
-Shadow Sneak
-Toxic

I'm considering taking out Anduril because he is in the Uber tier, thus being banned. But he plays a good part at being able to Toxic, then do a bit of damage.

Altaria(Peggy)
EVs: 252 Spd, 192 Atk, 64 HP
Item: Altarianite
Nature: Adamant
Ability: Cloud Nine(Pixilate)
Moves:
-Return
-Dragon Dance
-Roost
-Earthquake

Altaria is basically the backbone of my team. He has great attack, great Return STAB from Pixilate, and he runs Dragon Dance, and he can 2HKO Mega Aggron with Earthquake. Once Mega Evolved, he is also great for switching in on dragons.

No offence, but this is a horrible team. First of all what is the point of Aegislash He's freaking banned. You use him for toxic? Wtf. Just use Eviolite Chansey. Swampert and Quagsire are UnderUsed and NeverUsed, so seriously? You're using freeze-dry for that? Noob...

I don't usually comment on RMT threads like this, because I usually have little to add, but you should be ashamed of your comment. You pointed out the problems, but offered no real solutions to someone who is obviously new to this.

I agree with The Avalanches. You cannot pointedly call out a user's team as horrible. You can constructively criticize them, but you cannot insult a person's team and then the person themself. Saying "No offense" does not make your insults any less hurtful. You can say something like "Aegislash is in the Ubers tier, so he is banned in OU. Instead, you can use a steel type such as Aggron to carry out your bulky offensive support, which can also provide more coverage" or something along those lines. Try to help improve this new Smogoner, who is probably new to competitive battling, too, instead of openly shooting down their first team.

all right guys sorry i'll delete my post. I'm sorry for being a jerk Davitri
 
Sub for Aegislash- Try a Weavile. Personal favorite in OU.
Weavile Life Orb
EVs: 252 Attack, 252 Speed, 4 HP
Item: Life Orb
Nature: Adamant
Ability: Pressure
Moves:
-Ice Shard
-Low Kick
-Knock Off
-Ice Punch/ Foul Play
 
I like your team, it's rather original running Aurorus as a special sweeper :) One thing that I noticed however, was the nature of your Eelektross being Quiet. I'd recommend running modest to ensure that it hits harder, as well as giving some speed back. As for the Aegislash, a substitute for that could fall into the clutches of Heatran. A specially defensive Heatran is a wonderful asset to any team with this set:
Heatran Leftovers
Nature: Calm
EVs: 248 HP, 192 SpD, 68 Speed
Ability: Flash Fire
Moves:
-Lava Plume
-Stealth Rock/Roar
-Taunt
-Toxic/Roar

The HP investment helps it take the least entry hazard damage, and the speed lets him outspeed most slower threats, while the rest is dumped into Special defense to tank special hits. The moves are pretty basic, but seeing as how you have a stealth rocker in rhyperior, you could ditch rocks for Roar and toxic. Lava Plume can get some nice burns to take physical hits better as well. Just my two cents though, try it out if you'd like :)
 
Typically, Electivire isn't too good in OU, but I know most successful Electivire run this set:

Electivire @ Life Orb
Ability: Motor Drive
EVs: 252 Atk / 4 SpA / 252 Spe
Naive Nature
- Wild Charge / Thunder Punch
- Cross Chop / Flamethrower
- Ice Punch
- Hidden Power Grass / Volt Switch

You can cover more weaknesses with this. Though, Wild Charge have recoil, so I left in Thunder Punch of you want. To cover mons with high defense (physical), you could go Flamethrower for that, but otherwise stick to Cross Chop. HP Grass does what Flamethrower does, but for different type coverage. Volt Switch is the better option imo, because you can escape whenever you're being troubled (just don't be predictable with it).

It not electivire its eelektross he/she's running
 
Since aegislash is banned to ubers, you could try running a specially defensive heatran to take its place, which can also use toxic stall. Try lava plume/toxic/protect/taunt, with 248 HP/192 SpD/68 Spe Calm. Since aegislash is banned, you have to replace it, and heatran fills a similar role. The speed helps you outspeed pokemon like mega venusaur and mega scizor.
 
I have actually started running a physically defensive Heatran, due to the nature of mine and the fact that some of his weaknesses are mostly physical. He doesn't use taunt but I should try that!
