OU Team

[Flushwush]

Hey I'm new to competitive and I wondered if this team (2nd one I've ever made) is any good, so please leave feedback :)

Infernape@Life Orb
Ability: Iron Fist
Nature: Jolly
252 Atk/252 Spe
Moveset:
Flare Blitz
Close Combat
Thunder Punch
U-turn

I use close combat to sweep and counter the steel and normal types like Skarmory and Blissey both used a lot as specially defensive Pokemon. I then use thunder punch if they decide to bring out a water type but thunder punch could also be switched out for a mach punch.

Tyranitar@Tyranitarite
Ability: Sand stream
Nature: Adamant
252 Atk/252 HP
Moveset:
Stone edge
Crunch
Earthquake
Stealth rocks

My tank/attacker. Counters special attackers and can take hits pretty hard with high HP. Checks aegislash cause of EQ. Might be my lead sometimes.

Greninja@Life orb
Ability: Protean
Nature: Hasty
252 Spe/252 Sp.A
Moveset:
Surf
Ice beam
U-Turn
Grass knot

Ev spread this way cause it destroys most dragons with STAB and can outrun. U-turn to keep momentum and if i wanna save it for later. Grass knot for coverage.

Gliscor@Toxic orb
Ability:Poison heal
Nature: Impish
252 HP/252 Def
Moveset:
Toxic
Protect
Earthquake
Ice fang

Of course, my staller. Bit tanky and high attack to counter most pokes. I use him to poison stall and cover dragons types. Also love the poison heal so they cant scratch him. Usually my checker.

Rotom-Wash@Leftovers
Ability: Levitate
Nature: Calm
252 HP/252 Sp.D
Moveset:
Thunderbolt
Will-O-Wisp
Confuse ray
Hydro pump

Put him there for pure walling and some special attack. Can annoy opponent by halving attack with will o wisp or confuse them for hitting themselves. Hydro Pump and Thunderbolt for stab/coverage of fire, ground, and water types.

Aegislash@Leftovers
Ability: Stance change
Nature: Brave
252 HP/252 Atk
Moveset:
Shadow ball
Kings shield
Shadow sneak
Sacred sword

My wall sorta. Pretty basic moveset. Had him sweep 5 pokemon at once so thats nice. Really good at setting up. My surprise factor kind of with shadow ball.

cool team but why not run a different set for infernape and tyranitar?
i see you have no mega and this team looks like a Mega Venusaur would be a Great fit as your does have a large keldeo weakness especially since extrasensory is nowhere to be found on your greninja.
but if you don't want to part with ttar Mega Tyranitar over would also be a good fit.
with ddance you can potentially sweep whole teams with the right predictions.
although it does stack up the keldeo weakness.
and also run rocks infernape, fear not the sets shall be in the bottom.
I highly recommend u atleast try out these sets.

SkarmBlissKiller. (Infernape) @ Focus Sash
Ability: Iron Fist
Shiny: Yes
EVs: 252 Spd / 252 Atk / 4 SAtk

Keldeo Check (Venusaur-Mega) @ Venusaurite

176 spe to atleast outspeed uninvested 80's and still make use of it's stellar bulk.

Meloetta makes some good points that you should definitely look into. I just have one thing to add. Your current aegislash ev spread is somewhat inefficient. You should lower your attack evs since shadow sneak and sacred sword dont really deal a whole lot of damage regardless and put some evs in special attack. The boost to shadow ball will really help in the long run. I also recommend a shadow plate, but leftovers works fine as well.

Okay, i'll consider this, thanks both of you :)
