[OU] First Team on Smogon

Hey Dudez.
I´m new on this site and not that good.
But I´m interested in battling, cuz it´s funny ^-^
Nuff said, here´s the Team.

@Life-Orb
Trait: Natural Cure
EVs: 6 HP, 252 SpA, 252 Init
Timid Nature (+Spd, -Atk)
~ Rapid Spin
~ Ice Beam
~ Hydro Pump
~ Recover/Thunderbolt

Remove Rocks from the beginning, can OHKO Thundurus with a bit luck, Pump + LO makes a lot of damage, Recover for recovery or Thunderbolt to kill Watertanks?

Hm, what are the probs of this Starter? o.o
Well, I can just remove rocks, but not stop them, because of the missing Taunt.
I can also use Scarf+Trick, but then I have not enough Moves to start in an effective way ^^

Pert is the only Colcanora Counter in my Team, which is a big Problem for my Team ... :/

@ Leftovers
Trait: Levitate
EVs: 252 HP / 252 Def / 4 SAtk
Bold Nature (+Def, -Atk)
~ Will-O-Wisp
~ Pain Split
~ Haze
~ Flamethrower

Why Weezing disappeared? He is great! 334 HP is okay and 372 Def is really nice. He could stop a lot of physical Pokémon. Sooner times I even used him to stop Chomp, but now, this is not necessary any longer ^^
WoW for burn, which helps me to survive more physical moves, Pain Split to heal damage and deal damage to my oponnent, Haze to stop Dragon Dance and Stuff and Flame Thrower for dealing Damage on Grass Type.
Special Sweeper are my biggest Probs, because 176 SpD sucks for a Staller :S

Physical Sweeper with a special Move are my save dead. I can´t predict thim every time and one special Move can be the KO for Weezing. After Weezing disappeared, the physical Sweeper can start boost and own the Team.

If Pert has gone. Volcanora can switch in this guy, own it and start dancing :/

(M) @ Leftovers
Trait: Iron Barbs
EVs: 252 HP / 128 Def / 128 SDef
Sassy Nature (+SDef, -Spd)
~ Thunderwave/Protect
~ Stealth Rock
~ Power Whip
~ Leech Seed

354 HP and 330 in both Def´s are great. TW for para, Protect for free recovery, both are great options. Bringing out Rocks and can stand on a lot of moves.

Volcanora can own this without Probs and after enough Quiver Dance, he can first own Pert and then the Rest of my Team. Rocks make 50%, so I need to be fast and own this thingy, before he will own me. Maybe I will use a better special Defense Pokémon, like Bliss or sth like that.

@ Life Orb
Trait: Pressure
EVs: 12 Atk / 252 SAtk / 240 Spd
Naive Nature (+Spd, -SDef)
~ Thunderbolt
~ Superpower
~ Ice Beam
~ Hippen Power [Fire]

This Team is vey slow at the moment. So I need a faster Pokémon, a much faster Pokémon. I need the fastest Pokémon!
240 Spd EV are awesome 500 Speed, which outspeeds a lot of Scarfer, his Set can hit nearly everything hard or neutral, even Shedinja, which I met sometimes (dunno why lol). Problem is Deoxys SpA of 288, which is not that high. Even with Life Orb his Attack is not the best :S
But even with his Probs he is great <3
Entry Hazards are his biggest probs, because the Orb deals damage to him.

If Volcanora dances a bit, Deoxys will be useless against him :S

@ Leftovers
Trait: Guts
EVs: 120 HP / 252 Atk / 136 SDef
Brave Nature (+Atk, -Spd)
~ Drain Punch
~ Mach Punch
~ Payback
~ Bulk Up

So, last but not least, I need 2 Sweeper, a physical one and a special one.
And the winner for the physical one iiiiiiiiis: Conkeldurr.
He has an amazing Atk Base, his Ability is really nice. Drain Punch for Recovery, Mach Punch as Prio, Payback for Ghosts and Psychos and Bulk Up for boosting. 120 HP EV are 381 amazing HP, 252 Atk EV 416 Attack and 136 SpD EV are 200 SpD. He is very bulky for a Sweeper, the only Prob is his speed. I use a -Init Nature, because I want to make payback more effective.
So I need to be as slow as possible.
And I think 85 is slow enough ^^

A special Sweeper with physical bulk can use me for free boosts, Volcanora is still a big problem.

@ Choice Specs
Trait: Levitate
EVs: 4 HP / 252 SAtk / 252 Spd
Timid Nature (+Spd, -Atk)
~ Psychic
~ Draco Meteor
~ Surf
~ Hidden Power [Fire]

Last but not least I need a Special Sweeper.
The whole Team has no Choice Items, so i can use a specsed or a scarfed Sweeper.
349 Init is not bad and fast enoug for a lot I think.
358 SpA + Specs are 537 SpA, so every Move can hit my opponent hard.
A Specsed Meteor is really amazing and the Rest is standard.
After scouting the Team he can even be the last Pokémon. if I can beat every Pokémon my opponent has left (except Meteor)

Problems:
1. Deoxys, my revenger is freaking fast, but the Special Attack is not that high. Deoxys was even faster than a Scarfed Chomp ^^
2. Volcarona could make some probs. He get´s 50% of rocks, but my Staller can´t do anything against him, Latios will be ohko´d, after a Quiver Dance Volcarona will outspeed me I think.

Ideas:
1. I hope it´s no "real" prob. If it is, a more powerfull Revenger. If ne needs a Scarf, I should change Latio´s Item.
2. A water Pokémon? Vappy, Jellicent or Cune or something like that. Or Heatran, if Volcarona has no HP Ground

I think I have much more probs, which I didn´t see :<

So, that´s it.
I hope my Team is not that bad.
But I won sometimes with it, so it couldn´t be that bad ^-^
And sorry for my bad english ^^


Past members of the Team:

@ Leftovers
Trait: Torrent
EVs: 240 HP / 216 Def / 52 SDef
Relaxed Nature (+Def, -Spd)
~ Stealth Rock
~ Roar
~ Ice Beam
~ Earthquake

Well, first of all I need a Starter. I have some Options, an Anti-Starter, which should prevent my opponent to use Rocks or a Weather Starter or a normal Starter, which should bring out Rocks and start scouting.
I took Swampert, he is very bulky and Roar is helpful for scouting the opponent Team. Ice Beam is helpful for Dragons, EQ is a nice STAB. 401 HP, 297 Def and 229 SpD is bulky enough to survive a lot of Attacks.
Only Grass would be a Problem, so I need someone, which could help me with Grass.
 
Sorry, the team was in german and I forgot to translete them :<
But you see the stat changes in the brackets, so that shouldn´t be a prob ...
 
maybe try in umbreon with wish and heal bell instead of deoxys. give life orb to latios.

use donphan with ice shard and rapid spin and rocks. instead of conkeldurr
 
Umbreaon > Deoxys?
If I would do that, the Team would become more bulky.
I would lost my mixed Revenger.
Umbreon > Nattorei or Weezing would be a possibilty.
Conkel is vey awesome, Donphan with RS, Shard and Rocks is nice, but if I use this, I have Problems with physical Stall.
And I have Pert for Rocks :S
 
Please, add more info for your descriptions, not only 1 liners or like a few words after more like 4 or 5 sentences depicting what role a certain pokemon plays, how it got onto your team and any other extra info. This thread may indefinetely be locked, under violation of rule 3 of the RMT forum.
 
Forretress> Weezing, does the same job but the flip side is it's a spinner. Or Starmie over pert, also a spinner, your pick!

121.png
Starmie= my choice personally.
 
Starmie > Pert is a great Idea.
Forry > Weezing would just increase my Fire Weak :S
Starmie as starter?
And what about my Nattorei, maybe the defensive one?
@Lefties
252 HP, 128 Def and SpD
Sassy Nature (+SpD, -Spd)
~ Stealth Rock
~ Protect
~ Leech Seed
~ Gyro Ball

Bringing out rocks, has nice bulk, Protect for scouting, Seed to annoy, Gyro for Damage.
EV Split make 352 HP, 330 Def and 330 SpD ^^
 
will u can have donphan as the lead like give hammer arm to swampert to get rid of steel and rock types.

Starmie as a starter works very well, the defensive Ferrothorn/Nattorei is a good idea. LO Starmie in particular works well as it brings offense to the table as well as a supportive role. Plus since pert was you Thundurus check, Starmie can OHKO it with 252 SPA Ice beam.
 
I added Starmie to this Team and made Ferro more defensive.
With the removing of Swampert Volcanora can make even bigger Problems, no one is a save Switchin, so maybe a Watertank > Weezing, for example Vappy or Cune?
ps: I have a big Dark Type Weak :X

Use a Choice Band Tyranitar, it always works for me, takes a Bug Buzz and Stone Edge OHKO's back. Plus with Superpower you can KO most Dark type pokemon, so maybe run that too. Also put Psycho Shock on Deoxy-S, I ran that on my own Deoxys-S and it OHKO's Conk, your are fairly weak to him.
 
TTar is great, but everyone take Damage of the storm, except Ferro.
Don´t know, if I should take him.
TTar > ?
Other Changes in the Team?
Shock on Deoxys?
After using one Bulk up Conkel will laugh about Shock, his Payback is a save OHKO ...

Sorry I meant Psycho Boost not shock, that was an error. Deoxys-S OHKO's since Psycho Boost has 210 power (After factoring in STAB) and deals Special Damage which does not help with Bulk Up, you can run leftovers on most of your pokemon so Sandstorm doesn't really matter, even on Deoxys-S Psycho Boost still KO's without Life Orb.

T-tar> Weezing I really don't see why you would use Weezing over the bulkier (overall, but not physically) Tyranitar.
 
Boost on Deo is a great idea and TTar sounds good, but
I don´t can´t handle Sandstorm that easily, Ferro is the only one with a resistence against Sandstorm, Deoxys will fain very fast, cause:
1. Every hazard can hit him
2. Sandstorm can hit him
3. He is not that bulky
4. Life Orb give him a lot of damage

If TTar > Weezing, I maybe should include one or more Sandstorm Pokémon, like Excadrill or a Staller or whatever :/
 
Your team is very slow outside of deoxys and latios, both weak to just about the same things. You need to replace deoxys.
 
I know :|
ps: Starmie is fast, too. Even faster than Latios ;)
But he has the same weaks.
3 psychos are too much.
Deoxys will be removed.
But which should be included instead?
