ORAS OU OU with Charizard

First of all I would like to say that I'm new to online battling and that this is my first team in a few years.

Charizard @ Charizardite X
Ability: Blaze
Nature: Adamant
EVs: 144 HP / 252 Atk / 112 Spe
- Dragon Dance
- Dragon Claw
- Flare Blitz
- Roost
I decided to use Charizard because he can deal a lot of damage and take a few hits due to his defensive stats and typing (and he's my favorite). His role in my team is basically just killing things, the thing he's best at. EVs and nature to maximize damage output. Roost to recover from the recoil by Flare Blitz.

Dragonite @ Choice Band
Ability: Multiscale
Nature: Adamant
EVs: 252 Atk / 4 Def / 252 Spe
- Outrage
- Extreme Speed
- Thunder Punch
- Superpower
Again deals a lot of damage and can take a few hits due to his defensive stats and typing (although he's extremely vulnerable to ice). His role in my team is to destroy pesky (water-)walls. EVs, nature and Choise Band for extreme damage output.

Gengar @ Life Orb
Ability: Levitate
Nature: Timid
EVs: 252 SpA / 4 SpD / 252 Spe
- Shadow Ball
- Sludge Wave
- Focus Blast
- Taunt
Where Dragonite and Charizard fail against Fairy-type Pokémon, this guy annihilates them. He's fast, strong and has great typing, the best Special Sweeper I could think of. EVs and nature to make him as fast as possible, Life Orb for extra damage output.

Goodra @ Assault Vest
Ability: Sap Sipper
Nature: Modest
EVs: 240 HP / 252 SpA / 16 Spe
- Draco Meteor
- Fire Blast
- Sludge Bomb
- Earthquake
Thanks to his typing he has no extreme vulnerabilities, and his defensive stats make him a great Special Wall. Assault Vest to increase his SpD to ridiculous heights, nature and EVs to give him some offensive capabilities.

Chesnaught @ Leftovers
Ability: Bulletproof
Nature: Impish
EVs: 252 HP / 252 Def / 4 SpD
- Spiky Shield
- Wood Hammer
- Hammer Arm
- Leech Seed
Although he has quite some weaknesses his defensive stats make him a great Physical Wall. He can take down Dark- and Water-types. EVs, nature and Leftovers to make him as bulky as possible.

Greninja @ Life Orb
Ability: Protean
Nature: Timid
EVs: 4 Def / 252 SpA / 252 Spe
- Hydro Pump
- Ice Beam
- Extrasensory
- Grass Knot
Extremely fast and average strength. He's the clean up man in my team. EVs and nature to outspeed most opponents, Life Orb for increased damage output.
 
can you explain what the evs are for on goodra,zard dont really see a reason to not run max spdef on goodra since you get 6-0 by greninja and thunderpunch on nite lol what does it hit besides slowbro outrage does more either make it fire punch or earthquake. Change goodra to av azu or p2 to beat ninja. If your using this in oras meta than i suggest a scarf mon. You lose to bird spam so you gotta make quite a few changes to beat it. Conclusion have something to beat greninja and have something to check birdspam like tauntskarmory and like lando t over gengar.
