There have been many jokes about teams mostly being one color. Most of the time its a coincidence, but I decided to make a serious team with only one color. I present to you, Mono Blue.
Gyarados-Mega @ Gyaradosite
Ability: Intimidate
EVs: 252 Atk / 4 SpD / 252 Spe
Adamant Nature
- Waterfall
- Earthquake
- Dragon Dance
- Crunch
Mega Gyarados is the star of this team. I personally feel like he isn't being used enough in the current metagame, so i decided to use him. This is a standard DD Megados set. Waterfall and Crunch for STAB, and Earthquake to hit Rotom (after mega evolving).
Tangrowth @ Assault Vest
Ability: Regenerator
EVs: 252 HP / 4 Atk / 252 SpD
Sassy Nature
- Giga Drain
- Knock Off
- Hidden Power [Fire]
- Sludge Bomb
The next mon i want to cover is Tangrowth. Tangrowth deals with a lot of things that mess with Mega Gyarados. Growth usually forces out Lati after taking a Draco, and Keldeo's Hydro spam. This is also a standard Tangrowth set with HP fire to keep Scizor, Amoongus, and Ferrothorn from doing anything weird.
Rotom-Wash @ Leftovers
Ability: Levitate
EVs: 252 HP / 252 Def / 4 SpD
Bold Nature
IVs: 0 Atk
- Hydro Pump
- Volt Switch
- Will-O-Wisp
- Pain Split
I put Rotom Wash on this team for one reason, to stop Scizor and Talonflame from setting up. This also provides a small volt turn core (as you will see with my next mon).
Magneton @ Choice Scarf
Ability: Magnet Pull
EVs: 252 SpA / 4 SpD / 252 Spe
Timid Nature
IVs: 0 Atk / 30 SpA / 30 Spe
- Thunderbolt
- Volt Switch
- Hidden Power [Fire]
- Flash Cannon
This is a mon that you normally wouldn't see in OU. My first choice was Specs Magnezone until i needed speed control. Scarf Magneton outspeeds Torn-T, Starmie, and Raikou which can all be a pain to my team.
Latios @ Life Orb
Ability: Levitate
EVs: 252 SpA / 4 SpD / 252 Spe
Timid Nature
IVs: 0 Atk / 30 SpA / 30 Spe
- Draco Meteor
- Psyshock
- Defog
- Hidden Power [Fire]
I needed a Hazard remover that was blue. This is a standard Latios set with HP fire to scare Bisharp. There isn't too much to say about this.
Azelf @ Focus Sash
Ability: Levitate
EVs: 6 HP / 252 Atk / 252 Spe
Jolly Nature
- Explosion
- Thunder Wave
- Taunt
- Stealth Rock
For my last slot and Rocker, I went with Azelf. Azelf is a great lead mon, it can taunt, stealth rock, thunder wave Explosion switch ins, and Explode to wear down things that my team don't deal with very well. I obviously have max Atk to power up Explosion.

Note: Importable is in the Threatlist for some reason lmao.
Threats: Specs Keldeo has the ability to wipe my team if Tangrowth is low on Hp.
Dragonite is a threat to me so you want to keep rocks up as long as possible.
Another threat is stall. I don't have any major Stallbreakers besides Gyarados who is walled by Quagsire. My suggestion for that is to widdle the team down with Latios, and clean up with Gyara.
