Came back to Showdown a couple of days ago and built an OU team to try and counter somethings I've seen on the ladder as well as cover most type disadvantages. I'd greatly appreciate feedback and suggestions to improve my team.
Dragapult @ Choice Specs
Ability: Infiltrator
EVs: 4 Def / 252 SpA / 252 Spe
Timid Nature
IVs: 0 Atk
- Draco Meteor
- Shadow Ball
- Thunderbolt
- Hydro Pump
Specd Dragapult to deal fast and reliable damage to just about anyone. Went for Thunderbolt instead of U-turn to deal with Pokemon such as Urshifu, just in case Zeroara faints and Hydro Pump to deal with Landorus.
Mew @ Leftovers
Ability: Synchronize
EVs: 252 HP / 4 Atk / 252 Spe
Jolly Nature
- Taunt
- Stealth Rock
- Spikes
- Explosion
My suicide lead, deals against pokemon who try to go for set up and mess up their game plan. Additionally, Mew uses Spikes and Stealth Rocks to cripple Pokémons on switch in and when low in health, Explosion is the way to go.
Clefable @ Leftovers
Ability: Unaware
EVs: 252 HP / 196 Def / 60 Spe
Bold Nature
IVs: 0 Atk
- Calm Mind
- Moonblast
- Flamethrower
- Soft-Boiled
Went with Unaware instead of Magic Guard so that way I can prevent sweeps and deal with Pokemon that increases their stats. Handles with Calm Mind users and does well against Dragon type sweepers who go for Dragon Dance set up
Landorus-Therian (M) @ Leftovers
Ability: Intimidate
EVs: 252 Atk / 4 Def / 252 Spe
Jolly Nature
- Swords Dance
- Earthquake
- Stone Edge
- Substitute
Went with Sword Dance set instead of defensive Landorus since Mew is my lead setup. Found Landorus to be quite effective against Pokemon who switch out since I can go for substitute and prepare sword Dance to sweep. Also covers for Ground-type attacks somewhat.
Heatran @ Leftovers
Ability: Flash Fire
EVs: 252 HP / 136 SpD / 120 Spe
Calm Nature
- Magma Storm
- Earth Power
- Taunt
- Toxic
My 'anti-stall' Pokemon. Prevents Pokemon like Clefable or Blissey from dragging out the game by trapping them using Magma Storm and Taunt as well as Volcorona from doing any significant damage because of its typing.
Zeraora @ Heavy-Duty Boots
Ability: Volt Absorb
EVs: 252 Atk / 4 SpD / 252 Spe
Jolly Nature
- Plasma Fists
- Knock Off
- Close Combat
- Volt Switch
If Dragapult is the Special Attacker than Zeraora is the physical attacker and offensive Pivot of my team. Deals with Toxapex with Plasma Fist and cripples other pokemon upon switch in due to its high atk.
