Rate my gimmicky Uber Team

Hi, guys. I am SuicuneIsGay in the shoddy. I used to be one of high ranker in the Uber Metagame but i haven't played Shoddy since June 8th. Moreover, Poke Platinum is just released several days ago which makes me more hard to adapt to Uber and OU metagmae. Maybe the changes that Poke Platinum will bring to the current metagame seemed not so much but i think Origin Giratina, SKyForme (I forget the name) and other added moves to the many of pokemon will shift the environment of OU and Uber Metagame a lot. Whatever, just played WoW (Not so much though because i have only season 2 arena set) and studied at my vacation so my knowledge of the Uber Metagame would be very suck and team will look very crappy and gimmicky. So please guide me guys.

Celebi @Leftover
Ability: Natural Cure
Nature: Calm
EV's: 252 HP/ 128 Def/ 128 SpD
-Stealth Rock
-Thunder Wave
-Grass Knot
-Recover

Role: Supporter. Blocking Kyogre, Water move of Palkia, and cripplng Mewtwo and Kyogre with Thunder Wave and block the Groudon with Gras Knot

This little Pixies is very disgusting. He never be OHKOed by any of the common lead in Uber ( I am not sure about Deoxys-A however) and crippling the fast lead with Thunder-Wave. With opponent's pokemon are crippled by Thunder-Wave and so on it will make my team's SD Rayquaza much easier. With Stealth Rock support, SD Rayquaza would overkill many of pokemon with either Outrage or Extremespeed. Grass Knot is self-explanatory. Recover is for healing and makes her stay longer in battlefield. With conjunction of Wish Jirachi, she will be very hard to die.
However, Dark and Ghost weaknees only make my team more vulnerable toward Origin Giratina and Darkrai.

Darkrai @Life Orb
Ability: Bad Dream
Nature: Timid
EV's: 6 HP/ 252 SAtk/ 252 spe
-Nasty Plot
-Dark Void
-Dark Pulse
-Focus Blast

Role: Sleep Inducer, Special Sweeper.
I always questioned that why Darkrai have CM but not NP even though have pretty crappy defense in Uber Enviroment. However, it get the heavenly gift in the Platinum which is NP. With help of NP, he can sweep the team much easier and faster. Dark Void and Dark Pulse is must on the Darkrai except when he use Scarf, so i won't comment on that. Focus Blast is for the Dialga and Blissey who think they can block these guy. I doesn't do calculation on here but i think Super Effective+Life Orb+Nasty Plot will do tons of damage to them.

Cons: Weak to Fighting and Bug.

Rayquaza @Life Orb
Ability: Air Lock
Nature: Adamant
EV's: 112 HP / 252 Atk / 144 Spe
-Sword Dance
-Earthquake
-Outrage
-Extremespeed

Role:
Late Physical Sweeper.

This Guy remind me of Extremekiller Arceus since Sword Dance and Life Orb Extremespeed he can rip apart the team. Earthquake is for the Steel like Dialga, Metagross and so on. Outrage is for STAB and also anything cannot stand on Life Orb+STAB+Max Atk EV+Adamant Natured Outrage except steel. Even with Steel he can still inflict tons of damage to them. With support of T-Wave , Stealth Rock, and Toxic he have potential of assassinating much of opponent's team member. However, i am not sure about using this. Maybe i should use DD Ray or MixRay or Mix Origin Giratina??

Kyogre @Leftover
Ability: Drizzle
Nature: Modest
EV's: 240 HP / 244 Def / 24 Spe
-Surf
-Ice Beam
-Rest
-Sleep Talk

Role: Status Absorber
Not so much description needed to this guy but i think all players in Uber Metagame need status absorber must since Darkrai get the NP. I don't use CM one because in that case, my team is too dependent on the stat-upping.

Jirachi @Leftover
Ability: Serene Grace
Nature: Careful
EV's: 252 HP / 40 Def / 216 SpD
-Wish
-U-Turn
-Toxic
-Protect

Role: Dragon blocker and Wish Passer
Primary reason for using this guy is blocking all the Dragon for sweeping my team. He can absorb Draco Meteor/ Spatial Rend with this EV and Careful nature very well and this will annoying the Lati Twins and Rayquaza who don't have Thunder, HP Fire, Fire Blast to work on.

Deoxys-A @Life Orb
Ability: Pressure
Nature: Naive
EV's: 4 Atk / 252 SpA / 252 Spe
-Shadow Ball
-Thunder
-Ice Beam
-Superpower

Role: Main Mixed Sweeper
Main reason for using this guy in my team is if my team is hard to set up or fail to set up this will guy will still threaten opponent with his brutal offense capabilities. Another reasons are revenge killing the Outraging Giratina and Rayquaza if they are locked up in Outrage and finishing the weakend opponent.


Things i am considering:

Giratina @Platinum Orb
Ability: Levitate
Nature: Naughty
EV's: 252 Atk / 32 Spd / 224 SAtk
- Dragon Claw/ Draco Meteor/ Outrage
- Thunder
- Earthquake
- Shadow Ball

I am considering about using this guy since Dialga, Giratina, and Jirachi cover each other's weaknees pretty well and also have some punch (STAB on Dragon and Ghost is best on the Uber Metagame) Max Attack EV and Naughty Nature is to 2HKO Blissey with Dragon Claw. Dragon Claw is for STAB but i can use Outrage on here too. Earthquake is for Tyranitar, Dialga, Jirachi and other assorted steel. Thunder for Kyogre and Scizor. Shadow Ball is for another STAB and killing any Psychic Uber like Mewtwo, Latis, and Lugia. Moreover, with his bulkiness, very effective STAB, and Stealth Rock he can at least kill two or three poke without so much of problem.


I want to make this team very offensively while i use Darkrai or Orgin Forme Giratina.... so please help me. I think my team needs too much of set up and seemed very gimmicky.
 
Well I am not sure about leading off with Nasty Plot Darkrai I feel thats better late in the game, for your lead Darkrai I would suggest Focus Sash and Taunt over Nasty Plot.
 
Hmm well even with Focus Sash you'd have to worry about Deoxys outrunning you and rendering it nearly useless. I'd think Scarf might be a good choice, but again I'd advise against leading with it and instead for setup later.

Don't forget Origin Form Giratina gets Outrage and can really mess a lot of things up with a +Spd Nature.
 
You really point out samething that i feared about. So what can i do?? Ditch NP Darkrai?? I think Rayquaza or Darkrai is my team's most unnecessary member. I want to be very offensive team. Maybe SW Rayquaza over DD Rayquaza since My Dialga can T-Wave pretty much anything except some cases. I was not sure about NP Darkrai lead too since Deoxys-A and Mewtwo can easily outrun this easily. I think most probable lead for my team will be Dialga who won't die in one hit but again those damn mewtwo..... I really made this team very quickly so it will have tons of problem. So can you suggest some change. I could ditch Darkrai and use Origin Forme Giratina too because i think Dialga, Origin Giratina, Jirachi cover each other's weakness. I have a feeling that people really underestimating Origin Giratina's boosted stat so i am thinking about Origin Giratina too. So just lead with Dialga?? Putting Dexoys-A in my team is for dealing with Origin Giratina though since his reduced defense mean he get much more damage from Deoxys-A's Ice Beam or Shadow Ball. Moreover, i think i have Deoxys-A problem too.

Hmm well even with Focus Sash you'd have to worry about Deoxys outrunning you and rendering it nearly useless. I'd think Scarf might be a good choice, but again I'd advise against leading with it and instead for setup later.

Don't forget Origin Form Giratina gets Outrage and can really mess a lot of things up with a +Spd Nature.
 
If you still wanna use Darkrai as a lead I recommend slapping it with a Choice Scarf and giving it Ice Beam/Spacial Rend for Dragons. Fastest sleeper in the game and Dark Void would null Deoxys-A's focus sash due to Bad Dreams.

Rayquaza's ES makes a great Revenge killer, so I wouldn't get rid of either of those.
