XY Ubers Rocks and Kill team

My ubers team! I've only just started laddering, at 1350 right now. Dont have pictures because I'm on mobile, might edit it later

Groudon-Primal @ Red Orb
Ability: Desolate Land
Shiny: Yes
EVs: 252 HP / 100 Def / 156 SpD
Impish Nature
- Stealth Rock
- Roar
- Earthquake
- Fire Punch
Not the usual P-Don set. This guys my rock setter, he's awesome because his bulk is amazing. I mixed up the special and defense evs so he could still tank some special hits. I run roar to stop boosters in their tracks and rack up a little damage, softening things up for ekiller and deo a. Earthquake because precimiss. Fire punch usual phys fire move. One of my fav mons


Aegislash @ Focus Sash
Ability: Stance Change
EVs: 252 HP / 4 SpD/ 252 Atk
Adamant Nature
- Swords Dance
- King's Shield
- Shadow Sneak
- Iron Head
This is a guy I'm debating on keeping or not. I like him, but I'd think I'd be better off with a spinner instead, since a couple of my pokes rely on hazard free entry. Feel free to suggest any mons

Deoxys-Attack @ Focus Sash
Ability: Pressure
EVs: 58 Atk / 200 SpA / 252 Spe
Hasty Nature
- Low Kick
- Psycho Boost
- Extreme Speed
- Ice Beam
Pure firepower at its best, can easily kill many threats to the team. Low kick deals with pesky dark types, while extreme speed ko's weakened mons. Psycho Boost is for a strong attack, while ice beam is to demolish dumb dragons

Zekrom @ Choice Scarf
Ability: Teravolt
EVs: 252 Atk / 4 SpA / 252 Spe
Naive Nature
- Bolt Strike
- Outrage
- Volt Switch
- Facade
Zekrom is my main revenge killer and late game killer. Not only does he ko weakened threats, at late game where everyone is generally weakened, he wrecks house with bolt strike. Facade in case of idk not really many viable moves for zek and volt switch for momentum purposes


Arceus @ Silk Scarf
Ability: Multitype
EVs: 116 HP / 252 Atk / 4 SpD / 136 Spe
Adamant Nature
- ExtremeSpeed
- Shadow Force
- Earthquake
- Swords Dance
Ekiller is the best, and can wreck teams unchecked. He runs swords dance and e speed for killing machine while earthquake gets rid of pesky steel types. Although shadow force may look questionable, it would surprise you how many people dont know it goes through protect! you don't know how many giratina and aegis I've killed that way lol.

Nets
Lugia @ Leftovers
Ability: Pressure
EVs: 232 HP / 4 SpA / 252 Spe
Calm Nature
- Whirlwind
- Toxic
- Roost
- Psychic

Lugia is to whirlwind all set-uppers, like geoxern who doesn't k.o with multistale and can be whirlwinded. He can also toxic stall many opponents, which is nice too. All around, I prefer him too ho oh because multiscale, and yeah.

That's my ubers team, leave your suggestions down below, and I'll take them all into consideration! Thanks!
 
One problem i can see with you team is a big hazards liability. 2 poke's items rely on being at full health as well as lugia with multiscale and a rock weakness. I feel like instead of aegislash, you could put a giratina-o with a set like this one
Giratina-Origin @ Griseous Orb
Ability: Levitate
EVs: 252 Atk / 248 SpD / 8 Spe
Adamant Nature
- Defog
- Will-O-Wisp
- Shadow Sneak
- Dragon Tail
This is a changeable set and you could definitely change around the evs and nature as well as the attacking moves. This poke would give you a defogger while keeping the ghost attacker that aegislash gave
 
Hey there, interesting team. The first thing I see is you have Lugia without Defog support and on a rather offensive team. This usually doesn't work very well because the rest of your team is trying to KO things and always keep the opponent on the back foot, but then Lugia comes in and your momentum kind of stops. You could maybe try like Life Orb Yveltal with Taunt, as it gives you a lot of momentum against Giratina(-O) trying to check Arceus.

I agree with Oryxslayer's suggestion about Giratina-O. Aegislash is too hard to use and in general it's a bad idea to use Sash on things that are bulky / have investment. However, I recommend maximum Defense to better check Primal Groudon and Ekiller, and Draco meteor over Defog to hit said PDon hard. I feel you don't crucially need Defog since your team is fairly offensive. Alternatively, you could drop Wisp, but that means you have to prevent Arceus from setting up again after you phaze it out (not too hard). If you choose to forego Defog, use Life Orb on Deo-A.

Facade Zekrom is largely useless since it doesn't really hit anything useful. Draco catches Groudon switches, while Sleep Talk helps against Darkrai.

Lastly, is there anything specific Arceus's HP EVs do? If not max Speed Jolly LO is the way to go since the power helps a ton.
 
Hello, I'm here to rate your team.

I agree with you dropping Lugia as it provides nothing for your team offensively and kills any momentum you may have. I suggest that you run Giratina-Origin, but not the set recommended, instead you could use something like this

EVs: 100 Atk / 160 SpA / 248 SpD
Brave Nature
- Draco Meteor
- Will-O-Wisp
- Shadow Sneak
- Dragon Tail

This provides enough Attack to 2HKO Mewtwo and Latias with Shadow Sneak whilst providing some juice to Draco Meteor so that it can blast Primal Groudon (it does ~77% to 0 / 0 variants I believe).

I would also recommend that you throw away Scarf Zekrom as it has gotten even worse in ORAS, with Primal Groudon being on every team and Xerneas still being very solid. With that in mind, I would recommend Scarf Xerneas with this set:

Xerneas @ Choice Scarf
Ability: Fairy Aura
EVs: 76 Atk / 248 SpA / 184 Spe
Naive / Rash Nature
- Moonblast
- Megahorn
- Aromatherapy
- Sleep Talk / Focus Blast

This lets you revenge kill Lati@s even after they have used Calm Mind, and gives you a switchin to Darkrai. it also OHKOes Mega Mewtwo Y after Stealth Rock with Megahorn. You have Giratina-Origin to switch into Primal Groudon so it is not really too much of an issue.

Lastly, i would recommend that you use Lava Plume on Groudon, as the burn chance is very nice and people tend to like switching their physically bulky Pokemon such as Landorus-Therian into Primal Groudon. Max Speed Life Orb Arceus would work nicely, and I would also recommend that you try Klefki over Aegislash as it gives you a check to Xerneas, a check to Lati@s, a status spreader and a Spikes user all in one slot. I hope this helped! :)
