OU Take 1

Miltankerized

Ok guys this is my first Ou team, i've tested it out on Shoddy and its done very well. My record has put me at like 1300 Cre. So Please rate and fell free to make constructive comments.

Without further ado My TEAM:

@Leftovers,Timid,252hp/252speed/6spatk
-Seed Flare
-Substitute
-Leech Seed
-HP Fire
I switched Roserade for this liitle fellow for two reasons. One I didn't like that i had 3 status moves all crippling each other and two i really like the sub-seed strategy. No one expects a Shaymin lead so most everyone switch out then i can get a free sub, plus some health from leech seed. Seed flare is for stab while HP fire is so that pesky grass types think twice before coming in on this guy.

@Leftovers,Bold,252Hp/252def/6spe
-Rest
-Sleep Talk
-Surf
-Calm Mind
Suicune is an absolute Haus. I've won so many game with just this Cune. Most players like to toxic this and then try to set up, meanwhile im setting up w/Calm mind. I rest up and then its go time. The biggest threat to this guy is Vaporean w/heal bell. Because of water absorb, and it can heal itself of toxic. But Vaporeon is the main reason i have toxic spikes.

@Leftovers,Calm,252hp/252spdef/6def
-Aromatherapy
-Seismic Toss
-T-wave
-Wish
Like my Umbreon before it Blissey tanks special attacks while setting up for slowwer pokes such as Scizor and jirachi.Wish is for support while the EV's are for tanking.Wish is to heal my team up for most have a lack of healing moves. If a physical attacker comes in I switch, if i even see Mence i go straight to rachi.

@Life Orb,Technician,Jolly,252Hp/252def/6atk
-Swords Dance
-Bullet Punch
-Bug Bite
-Superpower
Scizor is my Scouter,T-tar counter,revenge killer,Blisseys worst nightmare etc. I come in with Scizor I can set up and take some physical atk along with it. Adamant allows me to poke a hole in the opposition, and technician allows me to hit hard w/Bullet punch, and Bug Bite.

@Life orb(Changed from Specs),252spe/252Spatk/6hp,Timid
-T-bolt
-Hp Grass
-Shadow Ball
-Signal Beam
Jolteon is my Electric absorber. he is also imo a very underrated special sweeper. I chose t-bolt over discharge because i figured that they would be poisoned so i didnt need the parahax. Hp Grass is for the ground tpes that come in on her. I've been thinking about changin Specs to Life Orb but i havent.Shadow Ball, and Signal Beam for coverage.

@Leftovers, Adamant,252atk/252spe/6hp
-Iron Head
-Fire punch
-Ice punch
-T-Wave
Rachi is my flincher,Scizor counter,and if rose is dead my Dragon counter. Also Jirachi and Scizor run interesting combos, i U-turn from one to the another unless expecting a fire move. Ive thought about switchin Jirachi but i dont know who to, while still keeping the counters and maybe the U-turn strategy.

Thats my team, Please comment, and if you have any suggestions feel free to leave them.
 
Okay, your team has a nice style to it, personally i dont like the idea of too many scarfs, but thats your preference.

otherwise it is pretty nice, just watch out for occa beryy@metagroos because you can fire punch with jirachi, but he'll get the OHKO with earthquake, metagross can also resist most of jolteons attacks and can still earthquake, but he can't take t-bolts very well. Gotta watch out cuz scizor cant take too many eathquakes from metagross either.

I also see skarmory getting through three of your pokemon, so just be careful with him because he can faze your suicune, kill your roserade, set up spikes on umbreon and scizor (but you'll probably superpower him) and just has to worry about jirachi and jolteon. Watch out for forretress too.

Other than that, it looks very nice and very usable have fun battling :]
Btw i really like the drawings of umbreon, suicune, jolteon, and jirachi XD
 
Just a quick note, make sure to have Jolly over Adamant if running Scarfrachi to outspeed DDMence. That should be a better check against dragons than Roserade is who will probably be gone by midgame. Otherwise I swear I have played this team before, just don't remember the result. Good team, though.
 
Uh, well maybe having jirachi off choice scarf, giving her thunder wave. so what you do is switch in on something on it can force out, then thunder wave on the switch and you've got one hell of a flincher.

Otherwise you actually dont have that much to worry about, your team has nice synergy.
 
Hmm, think about running a defensive set with U-turn and bullet punch? Scarf scizor isnt too good because some pokemon can still out run you even with a scarf. The defense surprises people, and you can even put swords dance so that you can set up.
 
Blissey does everything your umbreon does but with an immunity to ghost instead of a weekness to it, and neutrality to bug instead of another weekness.
Also scizor is mostly only using bullet punch and u-turn so choice scarf isnt doing any thing except making you weaker than if you used a choice band.
hope i helped good luck :)
 
So i tested out the new team. Its workin well 4-1 so far. But ive been experiencing some problems because my jirachi wants to t-wave and it cant because of Roserades T-Spikes. What should I change Roserade to to fix this problem.
 
The only problem I see is that you have three competing statuses that you seem to depend on for different phases of the match; Sleep Powder to cripple their lead, Thunderwave to cripple their sweepers, and Toxic Spikes to cripple their walls. For example, with Toxic Spikes down, an incoming Infernape will always be poisoned before you have a chance to cripple it with paralysis from your Blissey or Jirachi. Perhaps you could wait till mid-late game to lay the toxic spikes, allowing Jirachi and Blissey to cripple the sweepers with paralysis, then, at the end, cripple the walls with Toxic Spikes? This would take some pretty good timing and prediction to pull off, but unless your opponent heals themselves, this is the only way I see it happening.
