I just recently made an OU ORAS balanced team and help and suggestions are much apreciated,
So here's the team:
Infernape @ Focus Sash
Ability: Blaze
EVs: 252 SpA / 4 SpD / 252 Spe
Timid Nature
-Stealth Rock
-Taunt
-Fire Blast
-Endeavor
Infernape is the lead of the team and the Stealth Rock setter. His speed is maxed out so he can quickly set up the stealth rocks and then cripple the opposing team's lead with taunt. His Focus Sash prevents OHKO's and leaves him at 1 hp, and then he uses Endeavor and bring the opponent to 1 hp as well. Fire Blast is the selected attacking move so he isn't taunt bait.
Skarmory @ Leftovers
Ability: Sturdy
EVs: 252 HP / 252 Def / 4 SpD
Impish Nature
-Roost
-Brave Bird
-Whirlwind
-Defog
Skarmory is the Defogger and Physical wall of the team. Defence is maxed out to withstand physical hits and Defog is to get rid of hazards. Roost is there to restore HP and tick the opponent of. Whirlwind is used to drag out another opponent if the opposing Pokemon is a special attacker or can destroy Skarmory. Brave Bird is the attacking move I picked to deal with fighting types.
Blissey @ Leftovers
Ability: Natural Cure
EVs: 4 HP / 252 SpA / 252 SpD
Mild Nature
IVs: 0 Atk
-Calm Mind
-Soft Boiled
-Thunderbolt
-Flamethrower
Blissey is the Special Wall of the team and Special defence is obviously maxed to withstand special attacks. Soft-Boiled heals HP when blissey has been weakened and calm mind makes Thunderbolt and flamethrower moves of mass destruction. Natural Cure gets rid of poison, paralysis, freeze, etc, so the status can't harm Blissey much.
Gengar @ Life Orb
Ability: Levitate
EVs: 4 Def / 252 SpA / 252 Spe
Timid Nature
IVs: 0 Atk
-Shadow Ball
-Sludge Wave
-Focus Blast
-Taunt
Gengar is my selected Special Attacker of the team with boosted attacks from Life Orb and max speed ensures it goes first most of the time. Max special attack also boosts shadow ball, sludge wave, and focus blast and taunt cripples status inflicters and stealth rock setters. Gengar was selected because of the high Special attack stats and because it's one of my favourite Pokemon.
Lucario @ Life Orb
Ability: Steadfast
EVs: 252 Atk / 4 SpD / 252 Spe
Jolly Nature
-Extreme Speed
-Close Combat
-Swords Dance
-Ice Punch
Lucario is the selected Physical attacker of the team with Swords Dance to give a huge boost to its moves. Combine life orb, swords dance, and max attack and you have a physical beast killer. Extreme Speed is mostly used when the target has low HP and I want to finish it off. Ice Punch deals with grass types and Close Combat destroys steel types.
Gyarados @ Gyaradosite
Ability: Intimidate
EVs: 252 Atk / 4 SpD / 252 Spe
Adamant Nature
-Waterfall
-Dragon Dance
-Ice Fang
-Earthquake
Gyarados is my selected mega of the team and a sweeper. With max attack to boost it's physical moves and ice fang to deal with grass types and earthquake to destroy electric types gyarados is pretty damn powerful. Intimidate lowers the opponents attack while max speed makes it go first a pretty damn lot of times.
I haven't found any real weaknesses for my team as it's fairly new so if u can find some that would be great and as I said previously, ANY suggestions for changes I should make are appreciated.
