Team Mayhem!

I've been team testing a lot on Smogons server on PO and i think ive found a team that i really like using please let me know what you think and im very open to suggestions thanks:]


thundurus_v_2_by_xous54-d38w12n.png

Thundurus@Life Orb
Trait:Prankster
Evs: 252 spa 252 spe 4 hp
Timid Nature
Moveset:
Nasty Plot
Thunderbolt
HP Ice
Taunt
Thundurus is really a huge power house. I lead with Thundurus 50% of the time to get off a Nasty Plot or two. If i dont lead off with him he makes an effective Revenge killer for me. He has won many of games for me by being the last man standing and i am very happy with it. I do think its very broken but i shall use it till its banned:] HP Ice for pesky flying types and dragons. Thunderbolt for a reliable STAB. Taunt for leads that im usually facing as i almost always lead of with him. Overall very happy with Thundurus.

Haxorus@Choice Band
Trait:Mold Breaker
Jolly Nature
Evs:252 Atk 252 spe 4Hp
Moveset
Outrage
Dragon Claw
EQ
Brick Break
This is the most broken Poke in OU right now. Anything that doesnt resist its powerful STAB Outrage is Skarmory or FerrothornXD. This is my favorite sweeper and all around Favorite pokemon from 5th gen. Im looking for some alternate movesets tho involving set up. Suggestions would be loved thanks:]
I use this to pretty much get rid of any poke that is a threat to my team as it just destroys everything. Dragon Claw is for i dont get locked into outrage and confusion. EQ is for mold Breaker and hitting things that usually cant be hit by it. Brick Break is more of a filler then anything i cant recall one time ive used it.

Skarmory@leftovers
Trait:Sturdy
Impish Nature
Evs: 252 HP 252 def 4 Sp.D
Spikes
Roost
Whirlwind(uggh)
Brave Bird
Skarmory is the bird the can take everything physical. Skarmory has saved my ass many times. I use him in maaany different ways, the other 50% of the time i will lead with him and set up spikes, sometimes ill just use him to take physical hits like a pro, and sometimes i even spam brave bird and take out some pokes! I know he can be used a pseudo hazer but im not sure how to use him like that so if someone could let me know it'd be appreciated. Overall one of the best pokes on the team. I maxed out his Def for he can take hits amazing and hp for he has a bunch of bulk. Has great synergy with Chansey

Chansey@Eviolite
Trait:Natural Cure
Impish Nature
Evs: 252 hp 252 Def 4 Sp.D
Soft Boiled
Stealth Rock
Seismic Toss
Thunder Wave
While Skarmory is the beast that can take any physical hit Chansey is the special sponge! Chansey has saved my ass to many times to count by taking a special attack my main sweepers couldnt. I always get stealth rocks up with chansey and then can attack with seismic toss. Evs are pretty standard i think? I just tryed to make her bulky as possible. Im curious if Blissey is better tho so im team testing with Blissey right now but i deffintly seem to like chansey better. I can usually PP stall with Chansey as well then switch into a sweeper and get the kill.

Victini@Choice Band
Trait: Victory Star
Adamant Nature
Evs: 252 Atk 252 spe 4 Hp
V-Create(oveeeerpowered)
Wild Charge
U-Turn
Brick Break
I went with an all out physical set on this maxed Atk and spe for it could be hitting hard and fast. i had a choice scarf on it for the longest time but then i realized that V-create kind of canceled it out and Victini is already fast so i just slapped a Choice band on him to hit even harder. Victini is my main sweeper with his insane STAB V-Create and even a scout with U-turn. Im very happy with Victini but am curious to using a mixed set with moves such as Fusion Bolt. Gets rid of pesky steels and mainly use him as my Ferrothorn Counter. Can hit airs with wild charge and break screens with brick break(actually use it on VictinixD) I always take out atleast 2 pokes with this. Does in a way need Rapid Spin support to get on the field safely.

Starmie@Leftovers
Trait:Natural Cure
Timid Nature
Evs(weird evs): 48 Hp 210 spe 252 spa
Surf
Ice Beam
Thunderbolt
Rapid Spin/Recover?
Starmie really was just put on here as a filler i don't really have much use of it besides as a rapid spiner and its never really done anything noteworthy. Looking for a replacement or different set or something.

Thank you for reading my RMT! Sorry the descriptions being a bit Short this is one of my first times attempting a RMT! Open to suggestions Thanks:]
 
This team is actually really good. I just have a few minor suggestions. On you haxorus I would definately run with dual chop over dragon claw. Dual chop hits twice for 40 instead of once for 80. But this gives him the ability to break subsitutes and then still hit the pokemon. Also another idea you might wanna test. Is running a choice scarf over choice band on either victini or haxorus. This is just an idea for if your looking for something new to try because you team is good either way. Also you could make starmie very potent revenge sweeper if you put all his ev's in to special attack and speed and put rapid spin on over recover. Also if you take this suggestion you should probably put a life orb on him. Take the suggestions you like and leave the ones you don't. This is already a really good team and by the way AWESOME victini picture.
-Good Luck
 
Thanks for the rate^.^ i will deffintaly test out dual chop and a scarfed victini thanks:] more suggestions are appreciated from anyone thanks:]
 
Hey Mayhem

This is a pretty good team the only thing I might say is before a nasty plot on Thundrus you can't KO Tyranitar (sassy) with Focus Blast. So you might want to run Hammer Arm over taunt. But overall great team.
 
Hey there, you're team is actually pretty good.
However, on Starmie, I would just take off thunderbolt and run both rapid spin and recover, as the only reason to not use life orb rapid spin Starmie is due to the fact that it cannot recover. On Victini, fusion bolt outclasses Wild Charge, so use that. On haxorous, dual chop > dragon claw, as it ends up with the same power, but dual chop can break through subs. Also, I personally like rivalry CB adamant haxorous for the extreme power that it provides, and since most pokemon are male it can work effectively. If you still want to run mold break,er I would recommend at least changing the nature to adamant, as it will hit harder while not letting you miss out on any important ko's. Finally, on thundurus, change taunt to focus blast, as you do not really have a dedicated special sweeper.
 
I agree that dual chop is better than dragon claw. I would go with rapid spin over recover because starmie isnt gonna be taking many hits to recover. And also on starmie i would give 252 spa/ 252 spe timid Also instead of leftovers i would try life orb. He can actually be a pretty decent sweeper because of his type coverage.
