[RMT] Double Screen + Pass

[Mosh]

After like 1 year or more not playing I came back and decided to make an standard team using the Double Screen + Pass strategy after having some sucess with an uber team with Mewtwo and Deoxys-E as double screeners and Mew as my main passer. So here's the result

TEAM AT GLANCE

Suicide Lead

~ You and Whose Army? @ Focus Sash
Ability: Pressure
EVs: 4 HP/252 Atk/252 Spd
Jolly nature (+Spd, -SAtk)
- Earthquake
- Rock Slide
- Taunt
- Stealth Rock

The Set Pretty much the standard lead Aerodactyl and besides hating the idea of using apokemon just to set up SR and die, he's is necessary for this team since I need the residual damage not to get screwed by Focus Sasher.
Why Not Other Stealth Rocker Lead?: Aerodactyl is faster the other suicide leads so i will get a SR almost 100% of the time, and Taunting the opposite poke before dying REALY heps the next poke:

~ Subterranean Homesick Alien @ Light Clay
Ability: Levitate
EVs: 252 HP/252 Spd
Jolly nature (+Spd, -SAtk)
- U-Turn
- Memento
- Reflect
- Light Screen

The set: Usually the second poke i use. Set up Reflect, Light Screen and sacrifices itself with Memento, if its health is low or pseudo-pass with U-Turn if it isn't. I am thinking about Flamethrower or HP: Ice instead of U-Turn to kill Scizor and Mence which can destroy my strategy using BB against Uxie
Why Not Other Screener? The other 3 most used Screeners (Bronzong, Azelf and Alakazam) don't have the access to Memento. Besides, Alakazam don'y pack a suicide move letting me get a free switch, Bronzong is too slow and Azelf is to fragile

~ Bulletproof... I Wish I Was @ Yache Berry
Ability: Hyper Cutter
EVs: 252 HP/68 Spd/190 SDef
Jolly nature (+Spd, -SAtk)
- Rock Polish
- Taunt
- Swords Dance
- Baton Pass

The Set: Get in the field after Uxie. If it used Memento, I get a free turn to raise my Speed with Rock Polish since no one will let a pokemon with -2Atk and Satk fighting against a set upper with Reflect and Light Screen and since nearly anything on the game can 2HKO it and i am faster than virtually anything with one Rock Polish under my belt I am usually able SD twice, if it happens, then the game is ended unless my oponnent hax me A LOT
Why Not Other Passer? Captain obvious says that this thing is the only poke who can pass Speed, Satk or Atk and has taunt in the OU metagame

~ Paranoid Android @ Lum Berry
Ability: Clear Body
EVs: 4 HP/252 Atk/252 Spd
Jolly nature (+Spd, -SAtk)
- Iron Head
- Thunderpunch
- Ice Punch
- Earthquake

The Set: If it has + 4 Atk and + 2 Speed, it can outspeed Timid Scarf Gengar and OHKO every single poke but Cresselia which can be a pain in the ass with Reflect, but the only one I found used TW and was owned. I am not sure about the nature (Adamant gives me more Power but then Trick Scarf Timid/Jolly Jirachi and Gengar will own me), the item (Life Orb would guarantee me some OHKOs with +2 Atk, notably against Swampert, Skarm, i'd have at least a chance against Hippo and it guarantee a 2hko against Bronzong) and I dunno if Iron Head has the best type coverage...Zen Headbutt has a chance to OHKO Swampert and MM has more power but i dunno if i like the missing chance...
Why Not Other Receiver: Metagross can easily take one hit from most pokemos, has a monstrous attack and I don't wan't to lost all the hard work with Uxie and Gliscor against those Stupid Intimidate pokemons...

~Last Flowers @ Life Orb
Ability: Inner Focus
EVs: 4 HP/252 Atk/252 Spd
Adamant nature (+Atk, -SAtk)
- Extremespeed
- Close Combat
- Swords Dance
- Ice Punch

The Set: k, If Metagross or Gliscor dies I Still got a chance of Sweeping my oponent with this thing, I usually manage to get a SD with Reflect and LS up even against the most powerfull Atackers. And it can cause havoc with only one Rock Polish under its belt, so after Gross is dead, I try to pass at least speed to him
Why Not Other Sweeper: Lucario can use Extremespeed and own a team alone with this set, and I prefer him than Scizor using SD (Scizor is godly as a Bander but Lucario is sexay with SD)

~ Where Bluebirds Fly @ Choice Scarf
Ability: Intimidate
EVs: 118 Atk/140 Spd/252 SAtk
Naughty nature (+Atk, -SDef)
- Draco Meteor
- Brick Break
- Flamethrower
- Outrage

The Set: Basically he's a Finishing Pokemon for the late game if Metagross or Lucario didn't sweep, and It scare some of the pokemons who trie to BB against Uxie (Scizor and Mence mainly)
Why Not Other Pokemon: I Don't really now, I was thinking of Alakazam or Azelf just in case Uxie don't do its job right since i got Lucario to Revenge Kill and somehow Sweep as a plan B...

So this is my team, I still didn't met a pokemon who can totally screw it so far so i won't post a threat list even tough the most threatening thing I found was Cresselia. Still, I have some doubts about the Metagross set, the use of Flamethower > U-Turn on Uxie and the last pokemon

I suggest you use 2 dual-screeners just in case the first one dies before it can set up. Bronzong or Azelf are good choices. I would take out Salamence if you decide on using a backup screener.

Well, all of these DS BP teams look similar to me, and they all seem to work pretty well and well, there isn't much to say about them since they're pretty easy to use, no offense.

I will give some suggestions though: I believe Gliscor should carry Yache Berry over Lum Berry, seeing as you already have Taunt in your arsenal which stops all status inducing moves, not to mention, if you get para'd with a Body Slam, the effects of paralysis won't get passed to receiver. After using Memento on Uxie, your first move should always be Rock Polish on Gliscor to get the first Taunt. You'll be able to take 2 ice attacks with LS up and Yache Berry, effectively letting you set up + 2 Spd, and +4 Atk.

Why Iron Head over Meteor Mash on Metagross? O_o. Definetly handles Cresselia with ease. You could test out Zen Headbutt over EQ, but I find EQ more reliable, especially coming from a +4 Atk.

Overall the team is pretty generic, you just HAVE to be sure you Taunt anything that mught carry Perish Song or a sleep inducing move or Taunt or a Phazing move, because those are the ones that have a chance at beating this team. Only thing that will hurt this team, is how predictable it actually is.

k, I know this kinda of team are easy to use, I am not ofended...just like those BPass teams back in ADV...just trying to make it good, I probrably won't use it much.

I'll try Yache Berry on Gliscor and another screener in d place of Mence... thx for the help
