Prediction Army [XY OU Hyper Offense]

[Bluwing]

.:Prediction Army:.​

Introduction
​

Hello i'm Brostime and ive been here for around a year and a half now, learning loads of stuff. I was a pretty decent battler before, note the "was" as this mean I quitted for a while before returning back for X & Y, so basically i'm much better at teambuilding than actually playing competitive, especially when it comes to Hyper Offense i'm not the strongest player as my predictions are horribly bad sometimes lol. Anyway enough bs talk and lets get to how the team works in general, so as I said this team is Hyper Offensive which means I want to have the upperhand the whole game, if I lose the momentum and the pressure on my opponent I basically lose the game, so it's here the predicitons comes in very handy. So first off I want my hazards up making it much easier for me to wear down the opposing team, and note that hazards will always put pressure on the opposing team as it will cut the switch-in opportunities and will then also help me when it comes to prediction. So the plan is get up hazards, smash the opponent with strong moves, then clean up, this is easier to say than do, but if you are an experienced player this shouldn't bother you too much.

Details
​

Deoxys-S @ Focus Sash
Ability: Pressure
Ev's: 252 Atk | 4 HP | 252 Spd
Jolly Nature (+Spd, -SAtk)
Stealt Rock | Spikes | Superpower | Taunt

Deoxys-S is the best lead in Ou for now, with it's insane speed it sets up hazards without any problems every time. I have max atk and spd because it needs to hit hard enough with Superpower, then you might wonder why Supepower ? Well basically it is there for Excadrill and Mega-Kangaskhan as I can dent/ko them wih Superpower and I don't become setup fodder for Kanga which is the biggest reason. Taunt is there for other pokemon that wanna setup on Deo-S like Ferrothorn, Skarmory, Forretress etc. Stealth Rocks and Spikes are my deadly hazards which will help my team out a lot, and is the main reason for using Deo-S.

Mega-Lucario @ Lucarionite
Ability: Steadfast -> Adaptability
Ev's: 252 SAtk | 4 HP | 252 Spd
Timid Nature (+Spd, -Atk)
Aura Sphere | Flash Cannon | Dark Pulse | Nasty Plot

Mega-Lucario is the pokemon I decided to build my team around just because of it's raw power, and that I really like it. So this guy basically is here to either hit hard mid-game or clean late game it depends on what kind of team the opponent has, anyway i'm running timid to outspeed base 110's which is an amazing speed tier to beat. Also most of the time I don't even need to use Nasty Plot as it just hits so hard anyway, but Nasty Plot is there for making wallbreaking easier, Aura Sphere and Flash Cannon are insanely strong STAB's due to Adaptability and Dark Pulse rounds of the coverage, all of this making Mega-Lucario a force to be reconed with this gen.

Thundurus @ Life Orb
Ability: Prankster
Ev's: 252 HP | 4 SDef | 252 Spd
Timid Nature (+Spd, -Atk)
Thunderbolt | Volt Switch | Thunder Wave | Hidden Power [Ice]

Thundurus is my main way to stop strong setup sweepers and scarfers like Latios, Cloyster, Deo-S, Genesect etc. This is a huge role on the team as those threaths would rape me big time if not, also Thundurus is not weak and stuff like Gliscor and Landorus are snacks for it, and not enough with that it also provides me with the forever important momentum with Volt Switch which is just the top of the cake. So Thunderbolt is there for main STAB as it hits harder than Volt Switch, and yes some other coverage can be used but it's up to preference. Hidden Power Ice is ofc for annoying dragons and ground types like, Gliscor, Landorus, Dragonite, Garchomp, the list goes on.

Excadrill @ Air Balloon
Ability: Mold Breaker
Ev's: 64 HP | 252 Atk | 192 Spd
Jolly Nature (+Spd, -SAtk)
Iron Head | Earthquake | Rock Slide | Rapid Spin

Excadrill the best spinner of Ou! This guy is a very imortant brick in this puzzle as it's here to keep filthy Rocks and annoying Sticky Web out of my field and it does that exceptionaly with that sexy Air Balloon it sits on. This guy also packs Mold Breaker for those Levitaters (yeah fuck you Rotom), and for the people that maby wanna know the reason for my ev spread it's simple, 192 Spd Jolly for outspeeding Jolly Mamoswine after my balloon is gone to ko with Iron Head. Earthquake is STAB and it's a fuck you to all Levitaters, Iron Head is also STAB and is there to rape them Fairies and everything else, Rock Slide for some nice coverage that hits annoying flyers and fire pokemon, and the most important Rapid Spin for obvious reasons.

Talonflame @ Choice Band
Ability: Gale Wings
Ev's: 252 Atk | 4 Def | 252 Spd
Adamant Nature (+Atk, -SAtk)
Brave Bird | Flare Blitz | U-Turn | Tailwind

Oh man the MVP of the team no doubt! Holy shit this thing is so good there is no words to describe really how good this birdie is. So what Talonflame basically does is revenge killing stuff and rape everything, it even packs priority Tailwind when it's so much worned down by BB's that it can just die like a hero helping it's team out by doubling their speed by two stages for 4 turns, which I find ridicoulusly op at times. So Brave Bird for everything idk what to say it's just so good lol, Flare Blitz for what Brave Bird doesn't hit hard enough, it also packs that amazing momentum move in U-Turn for those annoying Pursuit Tyranitars and Rotom-W's that love to switch in, and just by reading that sentence you see how powerfull momentum is, gg.

Greninja @ Life Orb
Ability: Protean
Ev's: 4 Atk | 252 SAtk | 252 Spd
Hasty Nature (+Spd, -Def)
Hydro Pump | Ice Beam | Dark Pulse | U-Turn

Last up is Greninja, this thing is such an awesome pokemon it does so much for this team mostly it works like an an wallbreaker, because it gets STAB on everything which is the coolest thing ever. Also Greninja packs U-Turn which it get STAB on due to Protean and it creates usefull momentum for the team. I run Hasty nature to outrun as much of the meta I can but most importantly to outspeed Alakazam and speed tie with other Greninja's. Hydro Pump is it's strongest STAB and hits very hard, Ice Beam for dragons and flyers and is very good coverage with water, and then theres Dark Pulse to round of the coverage letting me hit them pesky ghost and and also lets me hit Water types neutral, and it gets STAB on everything.

Conclusion
​

So that was my first rmt of X & Y thank you for reading, come with thoughts, suggestions or w/e you want. I had a lot of fun when making and testing this team and i'm very happy with the final product, so good bye and have a great day further on ! BIG PS: Idk how to get stuff in the middle, and I really hope there will be options making this easier anyway that was it!

Hey, sweet team. It plays pretty well. The only change I made when using it was Vacuum Wave > Dark Pulse on Mega-Lucario. With adaptability Aura Sphere and Flash Cannon have the same BP with resisted hits as Dark Pulse as a neutral hit. It will also give you a bit a priority and make cleaning up end game a little bit easier.

Hello and thank you for the rate ! Vacuum Wave is a good suggestion, but as I said in the description it's more situational and up to preferences, but I might try it out tho. Also going Vacuum Wave over Dark Pulse is a bad idea as fighting + dark coverage is one of the best coverage options in this meta especially with dark type buff, also Aegislash walls me cold and sets up on me with no problem if I don't run Dark Pulse, and I really don't want that to happen.

Not hyper offense but w/e

I would consider running Fire Punch over taunt or Superpower on Deoxys. You have a great spinner, with excellent pokemon who can take out those who stop excadrill from spinning. Either one is fine to replace, but I would get rid of Superpower. Having Fire Punch lets you outspeed and ohko Scarf Genesect, most people dont expect it. The only thing I think hitting with Superpower is notable is Tyranitar, who is set up bait for Lucario. Hitting Mega Kang is irrelevant because you ko it with Mega lucario. Your call though

Fire Punch is a great suggestion and I really havent thought about using it over Taunt, as you said I have a great spinner and it lets me handle stuff like Genesect much easier, ill try this out, tho Taunt is neat for defogers, thanks for rate.
