Resource OU Teambuilding Workshop v4 (CLOSE)

[AM]

Hey dude, thanks for the team and all your work! I like lure Torn-T for Diancie, but I might end up changing something for Taunt as team seems to just lose against stall. I know you didn't have much time to put in bc 9 different teams lol but is there any alternate mon you might recommend as a stallbreaker that also fits the team? If not it's fine, I can always play around with the team and see what works.

Also requesting another core:

Terrakion @ Choice Band
Ability: Justified
EVs: 252 Atk / 4 Def / 252 Spe
Jolly Nature
- Close Combat
- Stone Edge
- Rock Slide
- Iron Head / Zen Headbutt / Whatever

Latias @ Latiasite
Ability: Levitate
EVs: 252 HP / 4 Def / 252 Spe
Timid Nature
- Thunderbolt
- Ice Beam

or

Scizor @ Scizorite
Ability: Light Metal
EVs: 248 HP / 16 Atk / 44 Def / 200 SpD
Impish Nature
- Swords Dance
- Roost
- Bullet Punch
- Bug Bite / U-Turn

I feel like Terrak isn't one of those "hey no one uses this so it'd be cool to use" mon but rather one that can excel in the meta breaking a lot of fat shit with the right support.

So yeah, the core is either Terrak + Mega Latias or Terrak + Mega Scizor, whatever is easier to build with (probably honestly think it's Latias). I put Mega Latias first as I feel like a lot of the stuff that walls Terrak, such as Slowbro, Skarm, Lando-T, Gliscor, Keldeo that threatens it, etc all are easy for Mega Latias to beat. Terrak is also a good dark counter for things like Bisharp and if choice scarf is needed for stuff like Weavile or Diancie then that's cool too. I slashed Mega Scizor not as another core, but just in case Mega Lati didn't have enough synergy or wasn't good enough to build a solid team with Terrak, as Mega Zor can also set up on stuff like Slowbro and Lando-T and Mega Lop etc. The team struggles with stall and Mega Sableye obviously so I feel like Clef would be a good partner. It's up for the builder to pick really as the idea of the core will kinda be the same. It'd also be awesome if I could get a BO team out of it, but ofc it's your choice. If the core won't work then any builder please just lmk so I can edit it instead of waiting!

Taunt on Torn-T is fine I had that originally btw.

Hello, I would like a team with chain chomp as it is a decent lure for physical walls and can put major dents in opposing teams, yet is fairly uncommon. Feel free to change the set or even use the mega variant as it can run many moves and be tailored to whatever mon you intend for it to wallbreak for.

[Amane Misa]

Hey! I would like a team with a Honchkrow. It is a very underrated sweeper and I would really love using it in a decent team. I think it would fit really well on an HO team. This Honchkrow 2HKOs Ferrothorn, Specially Defensive Skarmory and Quagsire and OHKOs Tyranitar. It could be very good wallbreaker.

Calcs

4 SpA Life Orb Honchkrow Heat Wave vs. 252 HP / 252+ SpD Skarmory: 169-200 (50.5 - 59.8%) -- guaranteed 2HKO after Stealth Rock and Leftovers recovery

252+ Atk Life Orb Honchkrow Brave Bird vs. 252 HP / 252+ Def Quagsire: 218-257 (55.3 - 65.2%) -- guaranteed 2HKO after Leftovers recovery

4 SpA Life Orb Honchkrow Heat Wave vs. 252 HP / 168 SpD Ferrothorn: 286-338 (81.2 - 96%) -- 12.5% chance to OHKO after Stealth Rock

252+ Atk Life Orb Honchkrow Superpower vs. 248 HP / 80+ Def Tyranitar: 567-671 (140.6 - 166.5%) -- guaranteed OHKO

Potential partners are partners that could abuse Ferrothorn/Skarmory/Quagsire/Tyranitar being gone...

Ok to preface I'm not gonna do some long as hell description for each cause there is like 9 teams and I want to focus the rest of my day on watching terrible free movies and laying on my bed. Maybe a sentence or two summary but other than that these are more or less the cores nobody wanted cause they made people die a little inside for a variety of reasons. I have to balance out my sarcastic nature with generosity so here it is. Subjugators is being done by dennis and Nedor said he miiiiight take the m-bro, torn-t, amoong one. I asked somebody if they could take that one cause the m-bro one is so boring and all the new guys want that for w/e reason it may be. The person whom it's addressed to will be name in the hide tag but I'm doing it in order of the names I tagged people in anyways if you care.

Togekiss is weird cause it kind of has a niche but it's literally only valid anytime there's a suspect going and dudes just throw on the latest stall team. I gave you some standard stuff and then a Diggersby to go with Togekiss. Now some tryhard user can post Diggersby + Togekiss in good cores and get like 10 likes, 3 for the core 7 because I saw the future. Just throw up hazards and call it a day.

Pangoro is terrible but I guess you can use Band, life Orb, or something wonky like Knock Off, Drain, Sub, Bulk up with lefties. Hazards and then some stuff that appreciates it. Band Keys to foul play stuff like Exca switch ins along with a couple of SD mons like bulky m-zor.

At first I wanted to use Custap Lax but was like screw it the ugly beast Slaking looked more appealing for wall-breaking to pair up with M-Gardevoir. Mostly standard stuff other things not so much. Kind of M-Scizor weak but manageable. Meta + Keld is more offense to me so didn't see the point of taking it another direction outside of that.

Threw some bulk on Zard-X so you can actually set up on Rotom-W to miss the 2hkos from hydro. Just a typical sand build. Iron Tail Torn-T lures Diancie for Zard-X. I considered running Swords Dance, Roost, Outrage, Flare Blitz if someone feels like running the version to destroy fat stuff.

I'm gonna end this on a high note and let you know this will be the last team I build for you specifically. Your requests are never thought out and so damn lazy and you went "take this core I found and make it for me" that I'm doing this for the sake of the other guys not having to do this really.

Enjoy!!!

Thanks!!! I'll try the set you suggested, and thanks for the team.

Would love a balanced team around these 3 pokemon. Tried to make one myself, but not happy with any of the teams I have made. One time I requested a balanced team around a core, but the builder said it was pretty hard to make the team balanced because the core was so offensive, so if thats the case with this case its ok to make an offensive team, I prefer bulky offense or balance though, as I like to have switch ins.

Altaria is the mega I wanna use. Going for the SpA set, to catch people off guard. Most altarias are DD so people will usually swich in their t-wave user (rotom, or intimidate user like lando) so wanna hit them hard. Gliscor to handle tings like heatran, clef, lati twins and such and Serperor for those annoying water/ground mons. Leec seed for sustain, but I dont mind changing it tbf. HP rock to hit Talonflame and Zard-Y

this core is based around two very resilient wincons who are great partners for one another, and a mon who supports them both well. m-sciz and toge synergize very well together as m-sciz can set up on a lot of things that beat toge such as m-metagross + weavile while in turn, toge can also set up on a good amount of m-sciz's checks such as m-sab + garchomp. both m-sciz and toge force in electric types, and to a lesser degree, steel types, to wear them down so the other one can sweep easier. meanwhile, toxic starmie was chosen in order to better handle a few mons that beat both sciz and toge, mainly heatran, in addition to landing a toxic on rotom, making it infinitely easier to wear down. and of course, it goes without saying, both m-sciz and toge greatly appreciate the spin support that starmie provides. ive been out of the oras ou meta for quite a while now so im incapable of building a good team, but i think this core has good potential. i just went with random default spreads, feel free to change them if you see fit.

edit: after discussing this core a bit with jacob, i decided that twave>toxic on starmie and/or fast mega-scizor are also good options. i dont really have a preference, so, it all depends on whatever the builder prefers

I requested something a couple pages back for this, but coupled with Manaphy. Not entirely sure if it makes a difference. Just a heads up I suppose.

EDIT: Before I get any more "you can have multiple teams with BoltBeam Megacham lel, kek I'm a sarcastic genius", this is a heads up that if he plans on using manaphy his and Clone's finished product may be similar if and when he gets around to it.

Hey everyone, this is an offensive core I think is pretty neat to play with. Mega Lopunny does a lot of damage with HJK and Return and comes with unresisted Stab with Scrappy. Lopunny can run a couple of different sets with it's movepool with things like healing wish, sub, encore, toxic and twave, allowing it to either sweep or provide some extra support to help set up its teammates. Weavile is a cool partner because Lopunny struggles with beefy walls like Lando-T, TankChomp, and bulky psychics which it can either defeat or severely damage for Lopunny to sweep. With an offensive core like this I think the team will end up looking like Hyper Offence. For partner ideas, I'm not too sure which is why I've come here for help, but I can see Clefable being a problem unless Weavile runs poison jab. Also, feel free to edit any of the sets below. Thanks for reading and I hope you'll enjoy this core as much as I do!

regen cores are uncool, but I oblidged and went ahead and threw together this team for you. first things first, i had to check the viability thread to see exactly what needed to be covered for this team to be effective. weavile, bisharp, scizor, latios, rotom-w, manectric, tornadus, and volcanion (basically dark, electric, ice, and dragon) all seemed pretty hard to cover between these three. mixed hippowdon adds an electric + flying check as well as an emergency check to other special or physical threats. hippowdon also provides hazard support with stealth rock. since the team is so bulky, klefki was added as an extra pivot/hazard support/dragon check. we'll be hard pressed to do much damage throughout the match with 4 defensive pokemon and an endgame option in slowbro. spikes + sr will be the teams main goal in order to soften things up for mega slowbro late-game. toxic > thunder-wave just for another way to wear things down, plus it makes breaking bulky waters and tornadus easier. there are two options for the last slot. there's rest/talk keldeo, a very reliable check to weavile, bisharp, and volcanion. i changed slowbro to mega, since it's a way better fit than regular cm slowbro, enjoy m8.

Thanks rob. Sorry if the core was boring. Hopefully my next one is a bit cooler :P

 

[Bramblestein]

Hey, would like to request a core around these two:

Diancie @ Diancite
Naive Nature
EVs: 8 Atk / 248 SpA / 252 Spe
- Diamond Storm
- Moonblast
- Earth Power
- Calm Mind / Protect

Weavile @ Choice Band
Jolly Nature
EVs: 252 Atk / 4 Def / 252 Spe
- Icicle Crash
- Knock Off
- Ice Shard
- Pursuit

Weavile with a Coice Band can really wreck some stuff by just spamming Knock Off. It's also nice to have both a Pursuit Trapper and a Revenge Killer in one role. Diancie can potentially keep rocks from being set for Weavile and then go for a sweep with Calm Mind after Weavile has weakened stuff.

Thanks in advance!

 

[OverlordDerp]

I know it's similar to the post two spots above this, but I just cannot, for the life of me, figure out how to build a proper M-Hera team. I'll post the core I generally use, as it's probably the only solid bit out of the M-Hera teams I've made.

Sets

Heracross-Mega @ Heracronite
Ability: Skill Link
EVs: 240 HP / 136 Atk / 132 Spe
Adamant Nature
- Pin Missile
- Rock Blast
- Close Combat
- Substitute

Jirachi @ Choice Scarf
Ability: Serene Grace
EVs: 252 Atk / 4 SpD / 252 Spe
Jolly Nature
- Iron Head
- Heart Stamp
- U-turn
- Healing Wish

Rotom-Wash @ Leftovers
Ability: Levitate
EVs: 248 HP / 252 Def / 8 Spe
Bold Nature
IVs: 0 Atk
- Hydro Pump
- Volt Switch
- Will-O-Wisp
- Snatch / Pain Split / Thunder Wave

M-Hera + Rachi is tried and true, mostly because it's a [solid breaker + speedy offense check] core archetype, and partially due to the fact that it plays on the synergy between breaking things from behind a sub, and potentially healing it back up for more with Healing Wish. Rotom-W completes a VoltTurn core with Rachi, and is a general-purpose stop to a large variety of Flying-types and bulky waters. Jirachi can both outspeed and resist most of the Psychic-types it comes in on. Between them, this core handles most of the things that stop M-Hera, but also cannot handle things like opposing Fighting-types (M-Medi, Terrakion), Fire-types that can muscle through Rotom-W (Char-Y, Heatran, Char-X), and Dragons that Jirachi doesn't really want to risk switching in on (Garchomp, if it isn't burned yet).

A lot of this core's defensive strength lies in keeping Rotom-W healthy, and most of the problems I come across when building with this core is that I rely too much on it as a defensive backbone, and I'm not sure how to support it better. In terms of Rotom-W's last move, I'm just a fan of Snatch (heh) since it has a decent chance of stealing more reliable recovery or a CM from things like Clefable, but Pain Split can be used if that's more beneficial.

 

[giovanidude]

I would like to request a build around Crawdaunt. I have tried over and over again and my builds have always fell flat, missing that unique fineness that comes with and experienced builder. It isn't a bad mon and looks to have allot of potential in the meta game as it can literally break down any wall due to its amazing power. I really don't have any restrictions on the build concerning teammates.

Crawdaunt:

Crawdaunt @ Life Orb
Ability: Adaptability
EVs: 4 HP / 252 Atk / 252 Spe
Jolly Nature
- Knock Off
- Crabhammer
- Aqua Jet
- Swords Dance

A few teammates that I fell could work would be Torn-t and Mega Gardevoir as they both are able to handle Keldeo, Mega Venusaur, and dragons (all to an extent). Idk if you get stuck this may help :/

Latias-Mega (F) @ Latiasite
Ability: Levitate
EVs: 248 HP / 68 Def / 192 Spe (may not be optimal)
Timid Nature
IVs: 0 Atk
- Calm Mind
- Stored Power
- Roost
- ???

This is my favorite mega lati set and it used to be one of the most feared cm sweepers but everyone is using the boltbeam set rn. Unfortunately I havent been able to build a good team with it. Quagsire is probably a good partner since it walls bisharp, ttar, scizor, weavile, and zard x (all of which give mega lati trouble), but feel free not to use it, since I couldnt make it work.

hi, i went with a balanced route for your gardevoir request because any offense teams i tried to build were basically the same thing as tdk's gard offense, which you can find in sample teams here. so yeah first things you want to cover with gard is basically steel types and stronger faster physical attackers which lando-t fits in nicely here (originally had garchomp but you can use it if you're not a fan of the slight bisharp weakness here), covers stuff like sand, talonflame, takes on stuff like scizor nicely, all that good stuff. skarmory completed a hazard stack core and gave a nice check to stuff like opposing gardevoir / diancie and provides an additional ground immunity, clefable was added because what is spike stack without clefable, it gives the team some kind of wincon and helps spread paralysis helping gard when it comes to speed control. amoonguss because i needed some kind of keldeo answer + extra stuff for like diancie/alt mag is always appreciated. ttar rounds off the team by trapping hazard removal and in general provides some form of speed, albeit not that much. also great for trapping electrics.

some changes you could make to ease stall matchups could be stored power or hwish clefable as well as taunt on gardevoir, but it's up to you. enjoy.

Helloo.
I'd like to request a team based around M-Lopunny and Jirachi!

Yarne @ Lopunnite
Ability: Limber
EVs: 252 Atk / 4 Def / 252 Spe
Jolly Nature
- High Jump Kick

Jirachi @ Choice Scarf
Ability: Serene Grace
EVs: 252 Atk / 4 Def / 252 Spe
Jolly Nature
- Iron Head
- U-turn
- Healing Wish
- Fire Punch (?)

I've been wanting to create a team around M-Lopunny originally, but Jirachi felt like it fit a spot where it could at least play a mutualistic role with M-Lopunny as both cover some of their counters (okay, well, seems more one-sided but oh well). I wanted to create a team that's not too focused on offense though, so I was hoping to add-in a a rather defensive mon into the mix such as Rotom-W, mainly since both Jirachi and M-Lopunny cover most of its counters well enough. Feel free to change anything in the sets though! I don't mind mixing in Sp. Defensive Jirachi set either. Thanks!

Woo! Thank you so much, mate! I'll have to try this team out soon.

Now then, there's one more mon that I want to use on a team...am I allowed to post a new request since mine was completed?

Regular Gyara is pretty cool, it makes for a solid late game wincon if rotom is dead the fall of tankchomp really helps gyara since not taking helmet+rough skin damage is nice. Latios is nice since scarf hp elec keld, rotom, and rocks are all really gay for gyara, hp fire is probably just as good on lati for this team but not speed tieing with other hp fire lati is really nice. AV Tang is the special sponge for the team and helpful vs serp since that pokemon is really annoying for this team. Yache Chomp is for elecs, sd is to hopefully get rocks on a mega sab you can also go lum berry to beat sab 1v1 but then elecs become a really big bitch. Rotom is for sand and a pivot to get gyara or sciz in for a free setup, its fast rotom so you can burn bisharp otherwise bish is really strong vs this team. Bulky SD mega sciz rounds the team out as the steel type and 2nd wincon behind gyara, standard evs you live draco + hp fire from lati.

Medicham owns so hard rn, i changed it to adamant to break better and i dont really like jollycham make if jolly if you want. Keldeo+Medicham form a deadly wall breaking core, just a standard spex set. AV Torn is the main pivot for the team and the main lati and keld check, 128 hp evs just make you tankier since torn really isnt on the team for dealing damage. Four attacks starmie was a set suggested by Nedor and it forms a viscous waterspam core with spex keld since it beats lati and venu that keld struggle with, boltbeam for all dat coverage. Defensive SD Lando is so you arent to passive, you can go u-turn if you want a 2nd pivot for medicham, the 24 spdef evs are so you live latios's draco from full. Scarf Drill is hazard removal and your steel type, its also a decent cleaner after the heavy hitters are done. I like this team its pretty epic but if you play a ice punch lop your gonna be in trouble even more if its got healing wish support.

 

[blueman164]

Looking at the rules, I think I am, so I'm gonna go ahead and drop a core here that I thought of.

Goodra @ Assault Vest
Ability: Sap Sipper
EVs: 240 HP / 252 SpA / 16 Spe
Modest Nature
- Draco Meteor
- Fire Blast
- Sludge Bomb
- Muddy Water

Scizor-Mega @ Scizorite
Ability: Light Metal
EVs: 248 HP / 252 Def / 8 Spe
Impish Nature
- Swords Dance
- Roost
- Bullet Punch
- U-turn

These two seem like they would work out very well in a team, probably a balanced/bulky offense team. Goodra soaks up the fire type hits and general special attacks from Mega Scizor, while Mega Scizor tanks physical hits all day for Goodra, while also carrying those delicious resistances to all of Goodra's weaknesses. The two of them also set up for a Steel/Fairy/Dragon core, and Scizor himself sets up for a Volt-turn core, probably with Rotom-W due to Goodra's Grass immunity. The EVs on the Scizor, or heck, even the entire set can be switched around if you think something else would be better. The Goodra could also be changed if you think a different set would be better, but I just want to use Goodra.
