UU Team

[10fore]

Ok, I figure this team has major problems in it. So far, I feel like it has worked pretty well in most situations, but against a couple things (rain dance teams, for one) it feels totally inadaquate. I'm wondering what to do to help ameliorate these weaknesses.

Lead: Jolly Ambipom @ silk scarf
EV's: 252 sp, 252 at, 4 hp
Fake out
Double Hit
U-turn
Fire Punch

Simple enough, fake out does nominal damage for free, u-turn brings in a counter and does more nominal damage, fire punch and double hit offer decent coverage. (maybe I should use thunderpunch for better coverage because then I'm only walled by rock/ground pokes and steelix, and I feel like rock/ground isn't common in the tier.)

Timid Mespirit @ lefties
EV's: 252 HP, 64 Def, 92 Sp, 100 SpA
Calm Mind
Ice Beam
Thunderbolt
Light Screen

Mespirit is probably my team's weakest link, but has been moderately useful here and there.

Adamant Absol @ Scarf
EV's: 252 At, 252 Sp, 4 HP
Superpower
Psycho Cut
Night Slash
Stone Edge

Revenge Killer. Obvious set. Super luck for mor hax.

Adamant Kangaskhan @ Lefties
EV's: 212 HP, 80 At, 216 Def
Substitute
Focus Punch
Sucker Punch
Frustration

Sub-puncher. Scrappy scares away lots of ghosts. It makes it a prediction thing where if they calm mind, they get smacked with FP or Frustration, but if they attack, they get nailed with S/E sucker punch. Of course, if they WoW, I'm boned, though.

Bold Blastoise @ Lefties
EV's: 252 HP, 128 Def, 128 SpD
Protect
Toxic
Yawn
Surf

Blastoise is just a generally neat pokemon. He's not the best bulky water, but he's about the most surprising, as nobody expects him to be this bulky. Toxic for general usefulness, yawn for more usefulness, surf for obligatory stab and for torrent synergy, and protect for more general usefulness.

Sassy Steelix @ Lefties
EV's: 252 HP, 252 SpD, 4 Atk. (Zero Sp IV)
Curse
Gyro Ball
EQ
Explosion

Cursing Steelix. Gyro Ball and EQ offer decent coverage. Explosion is there, but it's the least vital to the set.


I've thought about a couple ways to improve the team, but since it's the most successful team I've useed to date, I figured I'd get some criticism first.

3. Have some actual words in your post beyond your six Pokemon and their moves. Not following this makes your post quite boring to read and rate. All Pokemon should have a good reason for being in your team anyway, so why not post that reason? If you are having trouble with this one, start by giving an explanation for each team member. Why are they there? What role do they serve? How do you get them in? Then, give an explanation of how you would open with the team and how you would go about using it. All of these things help people rate your team and allow us to offer more helpful advice.

This does not mean add one sentence saying "Standard x" or "all-around awesome" after each Pokemon. If you put thought into making the team, you can put thought into posting it.

You should be looking to make all of them longer, in particular Mesprit, Absol, Kanghaskhan and Steelix. If you fix them up, feel free to post the team again.
