XY OU Rate My ORAS OU team! please?... :D

Ok so this is my first time posting one of these, I haven't played a whole lot of competitivve battling since about BW2 so im still new to the 6th gen meta/mechanics and what not, so i may have overlooked or not known about some other obvious or better choices but any advice on how to better this team will be much appreciated. Thank you, and with that being said lets start!

(Lead) Shuckle @ Mental Herb
Ability: Sturdy
EVs: 252 HP / 252 Def / 4 SpD
Bold Nature
- Sticky Web
- Stealth Rock
- Encore
- Infestation

OK so I know he's not too popular in OU, but i chose shuckle because I have some slow, yet powerful, threats on my team that can benefit from the Sticky web and SR support and he is a relaible way to get them up.The mental herb to atleast get one of the entry hazards out without worrying about taunts. went for the encore/infestation to hopefully trap and trade to an appropriate counter. He can also take those unwated, potentially devastating, attacks for the rest of the team and barley flinch.


Azumarill @ Assault Vest
Ability: Huge Power
EVs: 240 HP / 252 Atk / 16 SpD
Adamant Nature
- Aqua Jet
- Play Rough
- Knock Off
- Waterfall

A very good offensive pivot for the team just to keep momentum going and with his typing and bulk can switch in fairly easily. Took AV vest to best handle Spec Keldeo and not to mention just to give a little extra beef in the SpD area. The moveset pretty standard stuff to help azumarill hurt faces.


Garchomp @ Lum Berry
Ability: Rough Skin
EVs: 4 HP / 252 Atk / 252 Spe
Jolly Nature
- Swords Dance
- Earthquake
- Dragon Claw
- Stone Edge

With his typing, natural bulk, and great offensive threat he was a good choice here and with the help of the sticky web to make him seem that much faster without locking him into 1 move as with a scarf. Took the lum berry to be a party pooper to those would be will-o-wispers. Ran the dragon claw over outrage just incase they held onto a fairy or steel type for a certain dragon sweeping machine'o doom and I dont want to get trapped and set up on.


Heatran @ Choice Scarf
Ability: Flash Fire
EVs: 252 SpA / 4 SpD / 252 Spe
Timid Nature
- Overheat
- Flash Cannon
- Earth Power
- Stone Edge

This particualr Heatran I did for the WTF factor because SpAtk sweeper heatran always surprises me and he brings a very strong mid/late game threat and he also covers resistances very well for Scizor. With the choice scarf and sticky web it just makes him even more of a menace to those without levitate/flying. Overheat is the primary revenge move, went with earth power to get rid of other Heatrans, stone edge again to throw people off and think hes all SpAtk, and flash cannon to get dem fairies!


Scizor @ Scizorite
Ability: Light Metal
EVs: 252 HP / 4 Atk / 252 Def
Impish Nature
- Defog
- Roost
- Bullet Punch
- U-Turn

Chose Scizor as my mega to get that extra bulk and is the primary trade in to fairy types and to dragon types who might not have an affective answer to him. With U-Turn and his low speed it allows me to safely switch in my faster, yet more frail, threats and keep the strong momentum this team carries. Went the defog route for the fact that he can do it very reliably and still maintain healthy with roost

Gengar @ Black Sludge
Ability: Levitate
EVs: 8 HP / 248 SpA / 252 Spe
Timid Nature
- Hex
- Sludge Bomb
- Will-O-Wisp
- Substitute

Gengar is primarily in here as a spin blocker and to take that opportunity to set up....and cuz Gengar. Went with Hex to hit those pesky toxic orb Gliscors harder than a shadow ball would, sludge bomb over sludge wave because I think the higher % for poison is worth the small decrease in power. Will-o-wisp to potentially halt the slower physical sweepers and substitue to remain safe while gengar does what he does best.



Thanks for reading and looking forward to the responses!
 
Ok hello, your team is looking fine,I will give you some pointers real quick :) Shuckle: Nature=Pretty good but dont try to have one with increasing defense or special defense try finding one with timid or adamant. Moves= There great, but if you can try to get Rest and Rock slide ooor Earth quake. Ability= Ehh its okkk but his defense is really high..
Evs=Good. Item=Good.

Azumarill Nature= I got to say that nature is accutly pretty good! Moves= Everything is fine but instead of knock off get Aqua Ring which he learns. Abilty= One Word Supeeer. Item:Meh its good. Evs: Yeah its good just try to increase speed.

Garchomp Nature= Really good nature incresaes speed and special attack. Moves= PERFECT PERFECT PERFECT. Ability= Yes, its good beacuse his attack isint the greatest so some extra attack is good. Item= Yep,Its ok.. Evs: They are good but,, Your hp doe.. Im gonna asume its a mistake...

Heatran Nature= Probably the best nature for Heatran. Moves=Everything is perfect exept try to replace and get a move that increases attack but you dont have to. Abillity= Nothing wrong with it, like litteraly nothing, its a really nice abillity I must say ;). Item= Really good item keeps your pokemon going. Evs=Awesome,but agian I assume you did a mistake.
Im not gonna continue pointing out all the mistakes you put for spd and stuff.

Scizor Nature= Its okay since scizors special attack isint that good but try getting one with attack and speed, like brave. Moves= All is good, but instead of defog get agility which he learns beacuse his speed is really low. Abillity= Okay abillity for scizor. Item= I do agree with you, when he mega evolves you get so many diffrent ways to use him. Evs=Good.

Gengar Nature=Its good beacuse it increases his attack and his is really low. Moves= Agian,All of them are accutly pretty good, exept one which is hex you do not that move replace it with shadow ball.. hes a ghost type after all.. Item= It is really good since he gets health beacuse his defence is pretty low.. Evs= Not the best, buttt there still good :3 .

THATS IT!! took me 48 minutes to make lol.. Also sorry if this layout is bad and my skills are bad cuz this is my first one lol. Im starting to give name rates if anyone wants one pm me!




Im glad to help you! Please like if this was helpful! Holla at yo boy Blizz.

I think you have a misconception on how natures work. Natures raise one stat and LOWER the other. Jolly lowers special attack and raises speed, and brave raises attack and LOWERS speed. Just thought I would brake it to yah.
EDIT: I see what you mean now, but this is a defensive scizor. He'll want the defensive boost.

How can Azumarill run aqua ring if it is running assault vest? if azumarill drops the assault vest, how can it be bulky for aqua ring to even be worth it then?

Blizz this is one many mistakes you have made. It looks like you really didn't take the time to understand how these sets work on their own or together. Please edit them to be more accurate, and a little more readable.
