Remembering the Metagame

Hi, this is my new team, I wanted to do an u-turn team and I remembered that I had an u-turn team for 4th gen that I loved and I started with it:

Well, this is my 4th gen u-turn team, this is the base of the team

Staraptor were awesome but he is more awesome in this gen thanks to its new ability, then, I am not going to replace him, I think Zone must be always used on a u-turn team, he can trap the steels that are going to resist u-turn and the can't be set up easily. Otherwise, I think hydreigon looks better than flygon in this gen thanks to its great movepool and awesome stats

Starmie is a good spinner but I need something that can wish because staraptor lost a lot of HP for recoil and with espeon I can get rocks support from the opponent

Infernape hits so hard but if I don't put gyarados volcarona can sweep my entire team easily

Sand sweepers like excadrill and landorus were a REAL PAIN, with 1 SD excadrill sweeps my team, then I decided to put golduck, a very underrated pokemon but that can help a lot when battling offensive sand teams.


In Detail

@ Choice Band
Trait: Reckless
EVs: 4 HP / 252 Atk / 252 Spd
Jolly Nature (+Spd, -SAtk)
- Brave Bird
- Close Combat
- U-turn
- Double-Edge

That thing hits so hard, he is a good help for things like Conkeldurr, another fighting type and a lot of grass types I use it on the late game to RK

462.gif
@ Air Balloon
Trait: Magnet Pull
EVs: 80 HP / 252 SAtk / 176 Spd
Timid Nature (+Spd, -Atk)
- Thunderbolt
- Volt Switch
- Hidden Power [Fire]
- Sunny Day

ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDING ME? SUNNY DAY ZONE? Yes, I have 2 reasons
#1: Rain Steels like ferrothorn or rainrachi
#2: Seeing this teams the opponent usually things that I cant put weather, then he doesn't use his weather summoner carefully and if he dies I can put sunny day and clear skies when the 5 turns finish making things like excadrill or thunder users useless

635.gif
@ Life Orb
Trait: Levitate
EVs: 4 HP / 252 SAtk / 252 Spd
Modest Nature (+SAtk, -Atk)
- U-turn
- Draco Meteor
- Fire Blast
- Dark Pulse

An awesome special sweeper that can be better thanks to Espeon's CM passes he hits so hard and is an incredible scouter

196.gif
@ Leftovers
Trait: Magic Bounce
EVs: 4 HP / 252 SAtk / 252 Spd
Timid Nature (+Spd, -Atk)
- Wish
- Calm Mind
- Baton Pass
- Psychic

The idea of the set is attract ghost/dark types and pass a boost to hydreigon making him a better special sweeper, wish is for helping staraptor's HP recoils and psychic to hit hard

@ Choice Scarf
Trait: Cloud Nine
EVs: 4 HP / 252 SAtk / 252 Spd
Modest Nature (+SAtk, -Atk)
- Hydro Pump
- Ice Beam
- Focus Blast
- Hidden Power [Electric]

A really pain for offensive SandStorms teams, unfortunately his offensive stats are not too high (316 max) but he can help me with gyarados thanks to HP electric and the same for DDragons with IB, focus blast is for things like Ttar

212.gif
@ Choice Band
Trait: Technician
EVs: 4 HP / 252 Atk / 252 SDef
Adamant Nature (+Atk, -SAtk)
- U-turn
- Bullet Punch
- Pursuit
- Superpower

All the people knows scizor CB's function, scout, hit hard and trap lati@s and he makes me have a priority in the team that always is useful

I hope you help me with my fighting problem XD
