While Im Trying To Think of a Title

[Catch 22]

Introduction
Another offensive team I made. Its been very successful for me, but I can't help but feel Im lacking something. So without further Adieu, I present it to you and will take all Criticizism.

Staraptor @ Choice Scarf
Ability: Intimidate
Ev's: 60 HP /252 Atk / 196 SpD
Nature: Adament
Moveset:
1. U Turn
2. Brave Bird
3. Return
4. Close Combat

Synopsis: I wanted a hard hitting Physical Attacker who could abuse intimidate as a lead and who isn't Gyarados. Staraptor fit the bill perfectly. Seeing how Bronzong leads are booming as well as Aero Leads, Staraptor can intimidate both, u turn out against Zong and go to my resttalk Tran. While Close COmbat ohko's Aero and lives rock slide/stone edge after intimidate.

Metagross @ Life Orb
Ability: Clear Body
Ev's: 152 HP/ 252 Atk/ 104 SpD
Nature: Adament
Moveset:
1. Agility
2. Thunderpunch
3.Earthquake
4. Meteor Mash

Synopsis: It seems like nearly all Offensive Teams these days have a Agiligross weakness. Being observant person I am, I went ahead and put one on my team. And it has been excellent.

Vaporeon @ Leftovers
Ability: Water Absorb
Evs: 188 HP/ 252 Def/ 68 SpA
Nature: Bold
Moveset:
1. Hp Electric
2. Surf
3. Wish
4. Protect

Synopsis: A much needed Gyara/Ape counter. Im thinking of replacing protect with Ice beam but im not sure. Vaporeon is great though, and is vital to this team for wish support.

Azelf @ Life Orb
Ability: Levitate
Ev's: 4 Atk/ 252 SpA/252 Spd
Nature: Timid
Moveset:
1. U Turn
2. Flamethrower
3. Physic
4. Grass Knot ( Needed for various swamperts, hippowdons and donphan)

Synopsis: Azelf is great, provides great coverage and has u turn which is a plus.

Garchomp @ Choice Band
Ability: Sand Veil
Ev's: 4 Hp/252 Atk/ 252 SpD
Moveset:
1. Fire Fang
2. Dragon Claw
3. Outrage
4. Earthquake

Synposis: Hits stuff extremely hard. 2hko's suicune/gliscor/bronzong/ forretress etc. Not much else to say.

Heatran @ Life Orb
Ability: Flash Fire
Ev's: 252 HP/ 96 Def/ 100 SpA/ 60 Spec Def
Moveset:
1. Lava Plume
2. Earth Power
3. Rest
4. Sleep talk

Synopsis: Takes lead hypnosis nicely, and then proceeds to ohko with lava plume vs lead bronzong (granted I get lava plume from sleep talk) Provides nice resistances

THREAT LIST
Azelf - Heatran/Staraptor/Meta with +2 Speed
Blissey- Garchomp/Staraptor/Meta
Bronzong - Garchomp/ Azelf/ Heatran
Celebi - Lol
Cresselia - 2hko'd by OUtrage/ Meta counters non reflect cress.
Deoxys - Vap/Heatran/Meta
Electivire - Chomp/Meta/ Azelf
Forretress - Lol
Garchomp - Play to my resistances, intimidate with raptor and switch to Meta works well. Vap takes non CB outrage well
Gyarados- Raptor 2hko with brave bird after intimidate/ Meta sometimes/ Garchomp Ohko's with Outrage/ Vap
Heracross - Staraptor/Meta takes CB CC/Megahorn and ohkos's with Meteor Mash/Garchomp
Infernape- Staraptor/Azelf/ Vap
Hippowdon- Azelf/ Heatran/ Vap
Jirachi - Chomp/Azelf/ Heatran/Meta
Lucario - Staraptor/ Azelf/ Chomp/ Vap

I ask you all to help me perfect this team, or to come as close as possible. Thanks

 

[Catch 22]

legit bump

mmm
your biggest way of dealing damage is your bandchomp, but the moment you click outrage, chances are something is gonna come in and revenge kill it. and once chomp is gone, boom, suddenly you lose to stall. for this reason, I suggest slapping nasty plot on azelf over u-turn, to help your team do some big damage, as this team can cope with blissey pretty well.

as far as the ice beam versus protect arguement, I'd honestly put ice beam over hp electric to help you deal with garchomp, who if it happens to be one of those subsalac chomps, you're in for trouble. to be honest, I'd just switch staraptor into gyarados the moment he shows his face. if he dragon dances up on the switch, you'd probably u-turn to metagross to easily absorb the stone edge/eq and then even a +0 earthquake while pummelling him with thunderpunch. you can't really do this, however, to subbing garchomp, who once staraptor is gone, can safely sub to salac and get a swords dance somewhere in there if you give him a free turn, which he's likely to get, and then smash this team in. for this reason, I'd just replace hp electric with ice beam, as your garchomp issues seem greater to me than your gyarados issues, as even standard fare sd chomp gives your team big problems.

long story short, replace u-turn on azelf with nasty plot and hp electric on vappy with ice beam.

 

[Catch 22]
