ORAS OU Overused All Stars

[Overgiga Miltank]

Well it's my first RMT ask so i hope this will be enough :P
I'm making my first competitive teams, and i wanted to start with OU to have almost no restrictions in pokemon choice and so, have easy movesets to begin with. :P
Here is my Team, Overused All Stars, because it sounds great :3

Gengar (F) @ Choice Scarf
Ability: Levitate
EVs: 252 SpA / 4 SpD / 252 Spe
Timid Nature
- Energy Ball
- Shadow Ball
- Sludge Wave
- Focus Blast

Well, i had to start from somewhere, so i started with my favourite pokemon from the 1st Generation, Gengar. I love how gengar can cover almost anything with his moveset, i can deal with Ferrothorn easily, Slowbro, and all those sweepers that don't have 350 Speed like Charizard X OR Y , Keldeo and Stuff, i usually OHKO, or 2HKO Things.
- Energy Ball is here to take out Rotom Wash, Swampert Mega, Slowbro, Keldeo, Terrakion...
- Shadow Ball is a STAB that is mostly x1 on the tier, so i'm fine with it as a generic move.
- Sludge Wave for fairys, Clefable, Gardevoir and Sylveon Mostly, but also plants like Chesnaught.
- Focus Blast for those annoyings Heatran, Ferrothorn and Steel pokemons. I can also hit a Bisharp if i predict it.

Bisharp (F) @ Life Orb
Ability: Defiant
EVs: 252 Atk / 4 SpD / 252 Spe
Jolly Nature
- Iron Head
- Low Kick
- Knock Off
- Sucker Punch

Speaking of Bisharp, he is the best partner for Gengar. His types mix well with Gengar, He takes psychic, dark, and ghost moves, all the weakness of gengar, and gengar takes ground and fighting, i'm really impressed of how versatile that duo is. He's an amazing RK.
- Iron Head is here to deal with Fairy Mostly.
- Low Kick 2HKO Ferrothorn (Yeah i don't like Him) and deals well with chansey after Eviolite taken out.
- Knock Off is cool to remove item, even if the opponent switch, i have a bonus
- Sucker Punch is the win condition of bisharp.

Dragonite (F) @ Lum Berry
Ability: Multiscale
EVs: 252 Atk / 4 SpD / 252 Spe
Adamant Nature
- Dragon Dance
- Outrage
- Earthquake
- Extreme Speed

Well, i saw my attack coverage , and i lacked of things that counters Fire, Water, Electric , Fight, and Fly. So Dragonite was the answer. I can switch him to take a hit, even ice because of Multiscale, and then hit in return. He's a bulky sweeper, but can be an excellent revenge Killer because of ExtremeSpeed, i just love him.
- ExtremeSpeed is here to revengekill almost anything, talonflame included.
- Earthquake is mandatory to deal with electric, Bisharp and those Metagross and stuff like Terrakion or Excadrill.
- Outrage is the STAB
- Dragon dance to deal massive damages

Chesnaught (F) @ Leftovers
Ability: Bulletproof
EVs: 248 HP / 8 Atk / 252 Def
Impish Nature
- Spiky Shield
- Spikes
- Seed Bomb
- Leech Seed

Well , a tank was needed, and Chesnaught Came, i took him because i had almost nothing to deal with water, except Gengar, but he's choice so well i would have to switch it. Chesnaught can take physical hits 1 of his mates would take and he can recover well with leech seed and Leftovers. He's the staller of my team.
- Spiky Shield is here to abuse Leech seed and to deal some damages to physical attackers, it's Chesnaught's Signature move.
- Leech Seed is here to drain opponent and recover some HP to stay long.
- Seed Bomb is here to have a stabbed attack and a finishing move ,that's unexpected when you finish something with it.
- Spikes to set up some hazards and break sashs.

Espeon (F) @ Life Orb
Ability: Magic Bounce
EVs: 252 SpA / 4 SpD / 252 Spe
Timid Nature
- Dazzling Gleam
- Psyshock
- Hidden Power [Fire]
- Morning Sun

I'm really bad at dealing with stall team, and Espeon was the perfect answer to my problems. That Magic Bounce Ability making him a perfect stall breaker. That involves lot of predicting but can earn lot of things. I have a sweeper, i predict a status move / leech seed / taunt / Rocks, i switch for Espeon and bounce it, then i sweep. That's easy. But the lack of defense for Espeon makes me switch in front of opponent's sweepers if it can't OHKO.
- Dazzling Dream is here to deal with Dark pokemons that can take espeon down, but also those Latias that loves to Stall.
- Psyshock is the main power of Espeon since it acts as Physical and Special sweeper with that, that's why it is a great Stall breaker, Chansey is my favourite Target with Psyshock.
- Hidden Power Fire is here for Ferrothorn, yes, i hate Ferrothorn.
- Morning Sun is here when i smell Switches, it gives food for life orb.

Manectric @ Manectite
Ability: Lightning Rod
EVs: 252 SpA / 4 SpD / 252 Spe
Timid Nature
- Overheat
- Hidden Power [Ice]
- Volt Switch
- Thunderbolt

At last but not at least, Manectric Mega. I wanted a mega in the team, and Manectric came because of its great coverage and his double ability. I can switch if i predict an electric move, and then turns to mega and have -1 attack on my opponent each time i send out Manectric Mega. His great speed and SpA Allows him to sweep and come back easily, making him a fine Sweeper in the team.

- Overheat is here for all the steel threats and ice one too.
- HP Ice because of Landorus, Grounds, Dragons, and Grass
- Volt Switch can deal damages, then switch instead of just switching and lose a turn.
- Thunderbolt. Stabbed power move
​

Well that's all, i tested this team and i have pretty good results, i'm lacking of anticipation though. I have some difficulty with Mega Venusaur, i hate him u_u. If you have things you don't like, say it loud please :D
Thanks everyone :d​

Hey, your team is pretty solid so far. I have a couple of suggestions though. The first one is replacing chesnaught with ferrothorn. Ferrothorn is a lot more bulky and I think it fits the role you're going for with chesnaught better than he does. Also, on dragonite I would seriously consider replacing stone edge with dragon dance. Even with the speed evs dragonite will have a hard time outspeeding most offensive threats and will have to rely too much on extreme speed to avoid being killed right away once multiscale is broken. If you do this though, I would change the ev spread to max speed and attack because it will help him function more as a sweeper.

 

[oryxslayer]

hey man nice team, but there are a few problems to address. First, if you want to actually beat threats such as zard x with gengar, he will need to be scarfed, as zard x usually sets up a DD when it forces you out of something else. Scarf gengar is also in general better than specs gengar, but if you prefer power over speed, try LO gar as the ability to change up your moves makes him hilariously hard to safely switch into. Also, change energy ball to T-bolt as it gets better coverage and you already have chesnaught. I would also recommend not running AV on bisharp as he just isn't bulky enough to make use of it well. The successful AV users such as raikou, torn-t and conkeldurr have natural bulk, so AV augments that, but bish is a glass cannon, so he should be running life orb, with max speed and atk with a jolly nature. With dragonite, take WaffleTitan's suggestion and run DD as it allows dragonite to be a fantastic cleaner/win condition. Also, try running lum berry over weakness policy, as people usually try to play around the weakness policy threat and break multiscale with a neutral coverage move/u-turn and volt switch and then take d-nite out. Lum berry allows you to bluff weakness policy and absorb one will-o-wisp/t-wave from things such as mega sableye or thundurus. Also, change ice punch to outrage, as there is no reason not to have any stab moves, and he loses out on power. Last thing about dragonite, change his spread to max attack and max speed with adamant to give it the best sweeping potential. With chesnaught, I would replace drain punch with spikes and wood hammer with seed bomb. You have no hazards which is practically mandatory on every team and spikes fixes that. Seed bomb over wood hammer because you don't want to whittle your wall down. Don't know why so many people are obsessed with espeon, but it's not a good stallbreaker. You autolose to all stall teams atm, so I would recommend replacing espeon with a CM landorus-i. This allows you to not autolose to stall and is another poke that is very hard to switch into. Also, run overheat over flamethrower and t-bolt over discharge as the power does matter. That's the last of my suggestions, try them out and see what you think.

Hey guys, thanks for your tips =)
I tested your suggestions, and most of them improved my team, yeah. But i have some things to say :P
First, i wont add Ferrothorn, Pure Stalling pokemons aren't for my playstyle, Chesnaught can be an attacker and a defensive pokemon, it's more versatile. Ferrothorn takes x4 from fire, and i already have Bisharp that takes fire , and he takes fight too like ferrothorn.
OryxSlayer, i will keep most of your suggestions, all but Landorus.
Landorus is an amazing pokemon, i will keep this set in mind for my future teams, but with espeon gone i don't have anything to deal with stall. Espeon is really a powerful switch in against most of the stall i faced (Well, i'm still in low ranking ~1300) that want to will o wisp or thunder wave my pokemons, he's also a win condition against Sableye which is a real threat for my whole team if the opponent plays him well. Landorus also takes x4 Ice, like Dragonite, and Chesnaught takes x 2 so i don't wanna have triple ice Weakness.

Bisharp is better now, life orb really changes the game, he becomes an amazing revenge killer with Sucker punch and knock off.
I'm thinking of trying pursuit since when you drop off Bisharp against a low HP opponent, the opponent will predict sucker punch and switch. What do ya think?

Gengar Scarf still does massive damage and outspeed Dragon dancers , so it's fantastic :)
I'll keep Energy ball for Rotom Wash Though.

Dragonite is really heavy now. I wanted to try a more bulky set, but multiscale is enough. :)
So i'm trying to find another pokemon that can replace Espeon, or i'll give him assault vest and put some EV in SpD since Bisharp doesn't have it anymore :)

Anyway thanks guys, i'm updating the OP. :)

Thanks for taking the suggestions, in response to your questions, pursuit is very good on bisharp and it would be good to run it as if Lati@s gets a free switch against your team they get a kill, but pursuit can mitigate that. If you were to run pursuit, run dread plate/blackglasses as you have 3 dark moves and the boost from the dark boosting items is enough. For espeon, I can understand your concerns with running lando and I forgot that putting him would give you a massive Ice weakness. To help with that, How about a SubCM keldeo instead of espeon? It helps with the ice weakness and is a fantastic stallbreaker, dodging status with sub and setting up with CM to break walls. I just feel like espeon is subpar at breaking stall cores outside of chansey+sableye, especially jirachi+heatran teams.

You will be surprised by how easily it fits on a variety of team archetypes not named Hyper Offense. He's not necessarily a pure stall pokemon, since he has access to high BP moves that do more then you would think. Chesnaught is a really underrated 'mon right now, but Ferrothorn provides something that your team desperately wants. Stealth Rocks.

Lando-I on the other hand can provide rocks support so you don't have to replace Chesnaught, and believe me, it's actually quite solid at dealing with bulkier teams with its raw power and ability to force many, many switches. It's not as good as Espeon for that but it provides rocks support. Arguably though, I can say that a defensive Calm Mind set is better at dealing with stall and that you have enough pokemon to deal with offense. I understand that you don't like having an excessive ice weakness, but to be honest, your team's synergy isn't very solid, although it's a good start.

Low Kick is not necessary on Bisharp, since you have a Chesnaught to counter Ferrothorn (Immune to Gyro Ball, takes nothing from Power Whip, immune to Leech Seed, and can recover off Iron Barbs damage with Drain Punch recovery), as well as a Mega Manectric. Because of this, I suggest Swords Dance > Low Kick which gives you a secondary win-condition that can finish off teams after Lando-I has punched holes.

 

[Overgiga Miltank]

Keldeo worked very well =) The subs are very cool to deal against status and calm mind can keep him safe for a while, i definitely love it =)
As for Chesnaught / Ferrothorn, chesnaught is immune to lot of moves like you said, Gyro ball, shadow ball, and such things that i can switch into to prevent damages, so i'll keep him ^^
I'll change low kick though.
I'll try ferrothorn, and landorus, and tell you how i feel with them , Keldeo earned his spot though ;)
Thanks guys :)
