ORAS OU Tyrantrum the Based Lord + All Brown Team

So we made this legit team around Tyrantrum, ruler of worlds. There are no switch-ins to choice banded rock head head smash tyrantrum. Well, maybe there are a few. But not many. So we wanted to use tyrantrum. We needed 5 fillers now, so we decided on an all brown team, using the /ds command. We also wanted the team to be all physical. We picked randomly for the list. So, without further ado, here is the team of lords.

Killer of Worlds (Tyrantrum) @ Choice Band
Ability: Rock Head
EVs: 4 HP / 252 Atk / 252 Spe
Jolly Nature
- Head Smash
- Dragon Claw
- Earthquake
- Superpower

This thing has is too powerful. Banded Head Smash kills 2/3's of the metagame. He is the main focus of the team, I bring it in and nuke crap. Head Smash for obvious reasons, dragon claw for stuff like Garchomp. Superpower and Earthquake are for bulky steels. There are probably less than three things in the tier that can reliably switch in to this threat.

252 Atk Choice Band Tyrantrum Head Smash vs. 252 HP / 252+ Def Skarmory: 198-234 (59.2 - 70%) -- guaranteed 2HKO after Leftovers recovery

252 Atk Choice Band Tyrantrum Superpower vs. 252 HP / 88+ Def Ferrothorn: 250-296 (71 - 84%) -- guaranteed 2HKO after Leftovers recovery

252 Atk Choice Band Tyrantrum Superpower vs. 252 HP / 16+ Def Aggron: 404-476 (117.4 - 138.3%) -- guaranteed OHKO

252 Atk Choice Band Tyrantrum Head Smash vs. 252 HP / 240+ Def Mega Venusaur: 220-259 (60.4 - 71.1%) -- guaranteed 2HKO

filler (Dugtrio) @ Choice Band
Ability: Arena Trap
EVs: 4 HP / 252 Atk / 252 Spe
Jolly Nature
- Earthquake
- Sucker Punch
- Stone Edge
- Aerial Ace

To be honest, we just picked this because it's brown, fast, and hits decently hard. And priority. It traps crap. Does it pretty well. It is quite a great sac too. Aerial ace for Breloom, Torterra, and Grotle. Stone edge is for those pesky flying types, you know? And earthquake for stab. This gopher is like the speedy thing of the team.

another filler (Entei) @ Leftovers
Ability: Pressure
EVs: 252 Atk / 4 SpD / 252 Spe
Adamant Nature
- Substitute
- Sacred Fire
- Extreme Speed
- Iron Head

We picked entei next, cause entei. Everyone uses choice band, choice scarf,or life orb. I wanted innovation. I just put sub and lefties. Actually pretty standard. But it does work well. You can get a sub up on many things in the tier which is nice. Entei can usually take out chunks of teams behind a sub. Sacred Fire for the burn and stab, extreme speed for nice priority, and iron head for those pesky fairies like mega altaria.

more filler (Trevenant) @ Starf Berry
Ability: Harvest
EVs: 252 HP / 68 Atk / 188 SpD
Adamant Nature
- Leech Seed
- Horn Leech
- Substitute
- Shadow Claw

Now, this is what we call innovation. This thing is like the only thing on my team that can reliably switch in to either landorus-t. You sub until you get the starf boost, get the boost, and prepare to sweep. You harvest it again and get a lot of boosts. It hasn't worked yet, but it will, and when it does, I'll post a replay. Moves are pretty standard.

even more filler (Staraptor) @ Choice Band
Ability: Reckless
EVs: 252 Atk / 4 Def / 252 Spe
Jolly Nature
- Close Combat
- Double-Edge
- Brave Bird
- Quick Attack

This thing is pretty darn powerful, and is basically a glass cannon. Banded close combat does a crap ton to ferrothorn. I'm pretty sure banded staraptor 2HKO's every single mon in the tier, but don't quote me on that. Brave Bird and Double-Edge for powerful stab, Close Combat for the rock and steel types, and quick attack for the priority.

filler.jpeg (Hariyama) @ Assault Vest
Ability: Guts
EVs: 172 HP / 166 Atk / 172 Def
Adamant Nature
- Close Combat
- Knock Off
- Bullet Punch
- Ice Punch

We picked this because it is a brown fighting type. It has enough bulk to live a life orb psyshock from a latios. This the standard NU set. Close Combat for powerful stab, Knock Off on the switch, Ice Punch for Landorus-T, Gliscor, and the like, and Bullet punch for priority and good against fairies. It has decent bulk too, which is pretty good.

Well, I hope you enjoy my second RMT. Please mods don't close this like you did with the last one. Thanks

Hey, I noticed Sableye completely counters your whole team. O_o He can Will-O-Wisp and cripple your whole team, and you don't have any special attackers. I would recommend this Landorus to replace one of your pokemon, maybe Dugtrio? (I took in consideration of brown pokemon :P)
Landorus @ Life Orb
Ability: Sheer Force
EVs: 4 Def / 252 SpA / 252 Spe
Timid Nature
- Calm Mind
- Earth Power
- Psychic
- Focus Blast
Also I think Hariyama would be better with Thick Fat, so it can absorb the Ice Beams. Your team is pretty weak to Ice except Entei. I know you can use Hariyama to take the burn, but Mega Sableye can just CM set up on you and burn everything else.
 

Going to piggyback off of this and say while the all-brown concept is cool and can work competitively, an all physical or all special team is very detrimental in the long run because a dedicated physical wall/burns can completely destroy your team.

My suggestion is to use Landorus - I over Dugtrio. Landorus is a very hard special hitter with Sheer Force, and considering that Dugtrio doesn't look like it's doing much I'd think it would be a good switch to make.

As for a set, the ones on the Strategy Dex are pretty decent. Use the one you prefer I guess!

Thanks both of you, I will change the team.
