XY OU ORAS Mega Metagross squadron

Hey guys, this is my first time doing anything on this forum ever! I just wanted to show a team i made recently that I think is pretty good but not perfect. I'm sorry if I do anything stupid with the format but I'll probably end up doing something stupid with the format. Also you guys are gonna Have to go pictureless because my laptop is awful and can't download sprites apparently. Anyways, without further ado, I present the squad:

Squad Member # 1: Mega Metagross aka "Dickbeard III"
Item: Metagrossite (duh)
Moves: Bullet Punch, Zen Headbutt, Ice Punch, Earthquake
Nature: Jolly
Analysis: I didn't realize this till a little while ago but Mega Meta is soooo fast, speed tying with the lati twins is amazing for OU which is why I wanted to emphasize this stat seeing as 145 attack is already pretty amazing but not the best of the best. I gave it a fairly standard moveset aiming for max coverage so that I can pose as much of an offensive threat as possible. I am considering replacing either ice punch or EQ with meteor mash for things like defensive mew that don't care about either of the STAB options.

Squad Member # 2: Chansey aka "Retired Slut"
Item: Eviolite (for the bulk doe)
Moves: Wish, Heal bell, Stealth rock, Seismic toss
Nature: Bold
Anal: I hate having something super rad like metagross up there with no way to heal. In order to keep the homie from being burned, paralyzed, or just killed, I paid for- i mean.... I put Chansey on my team. Stealth rocks for birds and residual damage on stall teams and seismic toss in the event of an actual stall war which is easier won with at least one attacking move. Considering toxic as a replacement for rocks. Also, Chansey has the special bulk of an extremely absorbent sponge that will make special attackers want to quit it shortly after hitting it.

Squad Member # 3: Zapdos aka "Nappy Ho"
Item: Leftovers (blah)
Moves: Thunderbolt, Roost, Defog, Heat Wave
Nature: Modest
Analysis: I love Zapdos. Whenever some steel type comes in thinking he can ruin my day, HEAT WAVE BITCH. It's so satisfying seeing Ferrothorns get burnt to death. No fainting, death. Roost is there for longevity and defog cause rocks and screens and spikes and whatever. Also, zapdos' typing is amazing and I think it complements my other team members really well.

Squad Member # 4: Breloom aka "Bowlcut Nerd"
Item: Toxic Orb (You know it)
Moves: Substitute, Focus Punch, Leech Seed, Seed bomb (maybe stone edge)
Nature: Adamant
Analysis: Who sees focus punch loom anymore? I don't. Actually the only variant I run into is technician and even that is something I see rarely. I kind of expect breloom to drop tiers pretty soon but that doesn't mean this thing doesn't do work. This guy is the ultimate switch in punisher. Nothing really wants to take a focus punch and anything that does can get leech seeded at the very least. Letting poison heal breloom sub on you is an awful feeling.

Squad Member # 5: Greninja aka "Cunnilingus" (cause the tongue)
Item: Life Orb (BUM BUM BUM)
Moves: Hydro Pump, Ice Beam, Dark Pulse, Gunk Shot
Nature: Hasty
Analysis: Anyone who's played this meta for any amount of time knows this set, hates this set, has been surprised by gunk shot at least once, and has questioned life due to this set. So much coverage, so fast, such tongue. This guy rounds out my coverage very nicely and that's all I really have to say about that.

Squad Member # 6: Gengar aka "leanwitchaboi"
Item: Choice Scarf (Ya'll didn't think i would forget my scarfer, right?)
Moves: Dazzling Gleam, Shadow Ball, Sludge Wave, Thunderbolt
Nature: Timid
Analysis: Gengar's still a beast I really think that it is one of the top scarfers in the tier. It's movepool is jizzworthy and it's weaknesses are obvious and easily played around. Revenge kills like a charm and I've noticed that this thing puts so much offensive pressure on the opponents that it can be the sole reason for a momentum shift in game, great poke.

The End.

Please lurk on the forums to find out how to post a proper RMT before i get Starmie to close it down.
Lol, pretty sure all I missed was the EV spreads. I don't really care if you get "starmie" to close my thread cause I don't spend enough time on here to lurk on a forum.
