Intro:
I've tried so many different combinations with Mega Slowbro and I believe I've finally found my favorite blend. It has been about 4 years since i started competitive battling and it has become my favorite passtime activity. I hope you like the spread on this one.
Skarmory Leftovers
Impish
Sturdy
Moveset
-Stealth Rock
-Brave Bird
-Toxic
-Iron Head
I chose this mon obviously to set hazards, but also to check slowbros grass weakness. Sturdy works in place of the focus sash for the recovery. Skarmory can serve as a great defensive pokemon too which is why im running this spread.
Slowbro @ Slowbronite
Regenerator
Bold
252 Def/156 HP/100 Sp Def
Moveset
-Scald
-Psyshock
-Calm Mind
-Slack Off
This spread lets Slowbro act as a very effective tank when running calm mind set up. Scald for STAB damage and possible burn, Slack Off for that annoying recovery, and psyshock for STAB. Once a few calm minds are up this thing is very tedious to bring down.
Magnezone @ Choice Specs
Bold
Magnet Pull
252 Def/252 Sp Atk/4 HP
Moveset
-Thunderbolt
-Volt Switch
-Hidden Power (Fire)
-Flash Cannon
Standard set for a Magnezone, its mostly to trap mons like Ferrothorn, Skarmory, and even Metagross. The max Sp Atk spread allows for quick KOs paired with max Def EVs to resist fighting attacks. Magnezone also makes for a semi effective pivot which helps get it out of sticky situations.
Conkeldurr @ Assault Vest
Careful
Guts
252 Sp Def/156 Def/100 HP
Moveset
-Drain Punch
-Mach Punch
-Knock Off
-Ice Punch
Conkeldurr is just OP, admit it and respect it lol. I chose to run him because he checks slowbros dark weakness. Very bulky offensive attacker especially when guts activates. Sometimes i run toxic orb on conkeldurr but i like to keep my bulk here. Ice punch can take care of pesky flying types.
Sylveon Leftovers
Calm
Pixilate
252 HP/252 Sp Def/4 Sp Atk
Moveset
-Wish
-Heal Bell
-Moonblast
-Hyper Voice
My healer is usually Sylveon because it also provides high sp atk and STAB moves like Hyper Voice and Moonblast. Mostly i just wish and hard switch unless im in a good situation. The only flaw i see potentially is accidentally using heal bell on guts conkeldurr.
Garchomp @ Choice Scarf
Mild
Rough Skin
252 Sp Atk/252 Spe/4 HP
Moveset
-Earthquake
-Draco Meteor
-Crunch
-Flamethrower
This isnt my favorite set on Garchomp, i usually run Rocky Helmet and Rough Skin with max Sp Def but i felt there is more need for a mixed sweeper. The diverse moveset provides excellent coverage with 2 STAB moves as well.
That's it for this Mega Slowbro OU team. Comments and suggestions are greatly appreciated, and a vote on the poll below. Thank you!
