Simple rate/opinions welcome and wanted

You're going to notice how offensively inclined this team is, be ready for it. The idea of my team is murder shit before I get murdered.


Lucario @ Life Orb
Adamant 252 atk/252 spe

ExtremeSpeed
Swords Dance
Close Combat
Crunch

We've all seen it time and time again, the SD Lucario. Little explanation is needed; try to switch in at an appropriate time, get a Swords Dance and try to sweep.

I chose Crunch over Ice Punch or Stone Edge because I felt Jellicent and slower Psychics to be more threatening, and I have answers to other Pokemon like Gliscor and Gyarados.


Aerodactyl @ White Herb
Jolly 252 atk/252 spe

Stealth Rock
Stone Edge
Ice Fang
Earthquake

This guy is my Stealth Rock user, though I rarely lead with him because I tend to use him for coming in at the right time to sweep or get key KOes. White Herb is for surprising Intimidate users such as Gyarados or Salamence, oftentimes forcing a switch or landing a KO/serious damage if they decide to stay in.

The moves are just coverage, really.


Heatran @ Choice Specs
Modest 252 spa/252 spe

Magma Storm
Dark Pulse
Dragon Pulse
Earth Power

Murder shit. That is the name of the game for this Heatran. I often use him to switch on something he can wall or scare out and start a sweep.

Magma Storm is for a surprise trap which actually secures some 2HKOes(4th gen this set often 2HKOed Swampert thanks to the residual damage) and kills Focus Sashes. The rest of the moves are coverage or for more reliable options that would land super effective.

Why do I lack Explosion? I simply don't believe in sacrificing Pokemon, which is why I said, earlier, that I rarely lead on my Aerodactyl.


Azelf @ Focus Sash
Timid 252 spa/252 spe

Psyshock
Energy Ball
Flamethrower
Nasty Plot

The premise of this set is very similar to my SD Lucario; switch in at a good time, get a boost, try to sweep. Though I often lead with him before Stealth Rock goes down and the enemy team might have an issue with Azelf.

The sash is great for boosting, sashing what would be an OHKO, and then suddenly start killing everything and it happens a lot more frequently than one might expect. It also works well for just sponging a hit that would be an OHKO in the middle of my sweep and KOing back

Psyshock is prevent myself from being walled by Blissey, as one would expect. The rest is for coverage, but I like to keep Energy Ball for annoying water or ground types like Gastrodon and Hippowdon.


Mesprit @ Leftovers
Bold 252 hp/152 def/52 spa/52 spd

Thunder Wave
Thunderbolt
Ice Beam
Psychic

This set is deceptively dangerous. My EV spread allows me to switch in to a shocking amount of threats and threaten a KO or cripple in response the next turn. Do not forget Mesprit has a respectable 80/105/105 base defenses and outruns a number of slower Pokemon, such as Conkeldurr, and threatens them with the appropriate moves. To put it in perspective this set of Mesprit laughs at Terrakion, Gyarados, Infernape, and much more. You could run more Special Defense if you feel the need to.

The moves are coverage to hit things neutral or super effective, and Thunder Wave to cripple sweepers.

Black Kyurem @ Choice Band
Adamant 100 hp/252 atk/108 def/50 spe

Freeze Shock
Dragon Claw
Outrage
Fusion Bolt

This Black Kyurem might be slow, but once he's in you're hard pressed to OHKO him and should you fail you are likely to be OHKOed in return. I mean come on, it's an Adamant choice banded Black Kyurem!

If I am not mistaken, my EVs allow him to not be OHKOed by a Choice Banded Bullet Punch from Scizor after Stealth Rock damage.

The moves are his only real options, no explanation needed there, I think.



There you have it, my weird team XD I welcome constructive criticism and whatnot.
