    Modest Nature (+SAtk, -Atk)
    - Tri Attack
    - Dark Pulse
    - Hidden Power [Fighting]
    - Agility
    This little pokemon SP A is just so massive he hits like a truck, i chosed silk scarf over life orb so i don't take much residue damage , tri attack because it got stab and hit almost all types hard, dark pulse is their for ghosts types who love to come in on normal moves, Hp fighting to deal with the steel types that love taking normal moves and dark moves all day, agility is their to boost up my speed for mid game clean up, max Sp A and speed to keep offensive, and modest to boost his already high sp A

    Drifblim (F) @ Ghost Gem
    Trait: Unburden
    EVs: 252 SAtk / 252 Spd,4 hp
    Modest Nature (+SAtk, -Atk)
    - Substitute
    - Calm Mind
    - Shadow Ball
    - Thunderbolt
    This pokemon does mainly one thing and that is sweeping,it has massive hp which allow it to come in on a resisted attack and start to setup, substitue is their for hiding behind blocking all the lovely status moves,calm mind is a lovely gift that boosts my sp A and sp D high, shadow ball is their for stab and coverage, thunderbolt is their for coverage, what make this ghost type stand out is it hp and it ability it speed is doubled when you don't have a held item so that is why i picked ghost gem, modest nature to keep it looking good, the ev spread to boost it sweeping ability

    Mew @ Normal Gem
    Trait: Synchronize
    EVs: 82 HP / 230 Atk / 200 Spd
    Jolly Nature (+Spd, -SAtk)
    - Stealth Rock
    - Taunt
    - Explosion
    - Tailwind
    i chose mew because mew imo mew is one of the better leads i was going to go with azelf but it has less bulk than mew and less flexibility,Taunt is their to shut down slower pokes from setting up,taliwind is their to give that extra boost to my teammates,stealth rocks is their to provide residue damage and lower pokemon into team mates ko range, i picked normal gem to power up explosion so after mew does her job she can exist with a big bang!, i picked the ev spread to maxium her attack and provide some bulk along with speed

    This pokemon is a hidden gem he has acess to a great ability and all around decent stats,bulk up is their to boost his Defense up and make him last longer in fights,circle throw is my only attacking moves and it shuffle the opposing team along with making them take residue damage, rest is their to recover and keep me in the fight for most of the match along with activing guts giving me a hefty attack boost, sleep talk is their for me to exploit the benfits of guts while alseep, 252 hp and sp Def give him possibilty to survive a draco metor off the powerful dragons and tank incoming sp attacks,leftovers to give him healing over time.

    Just saying your tier is UU not OU.

    I'll give you some suggestions here and there:

    1. Ice Beam > HP Fighting on Porygon-Z. Because if you do some calcs you'll find out that Tri Attack does more damage compared to when you use HP Fighting against a *2 weak to Fighting. I know that you use against Steel and Rock but Ice Beam has more coverage.

    2. Go Full Speed and Attack on Mew.

    3. I know that your team has many Attacker but i'll go with Flying Gem Acrobatics and Will-o-Wisp on Dribflim.

    4. Throh has no usage in the UU tier, it dies easily before it sets up. So you can used a Special Virizion set instead.

    This is an average team at best. You have 2 pokemon weak to electric moves, and none of them are resisting/immune to it, especially when both Raikou and Zapdos are formidable titans in UU.

    To cope with the electric weakness, I would suggest that you chance Mew to Rhyperior, as it also gives you an effective counter to both Raikou and Zapdos.

    I honestly don't see the use of Throh on the team other than phazing, and there are definitely better pokemon for that job. UU also has many powerful psychic and ghost types such as Meloetta and Chandelure in the tier, which can effectively force out and neuter Throh. I see that your team is lacking a scarfer on the team, and both Porygon-Z and Drifblim have difficulty setting up and sweeping a team. Therefore, I would change Throh to Scarf Mienshao, which can bring immediate offensive momentum by either unleashing its powerful hjk or by scouting by using U-turn.

    Drifblim has a lot of difficulty setting up in the tier, as the majority of the tier revolve around fast and hard-hitting users which will almost immediately dent Drifblim with the correct move. Your team also lacks an immediate wallbreaker, so I would suggest Specs Chandelure as it brings immediate firepower (pun not intended) into the field, and it can blast open huge holes through your opponent's team, aiding Mienshao in its sweep.

    Finally, as your entire team despises entry hazards, I would suggest changing Feraligatr to Blastoise, as it serves as the team's spinner, getting rid of the entry hazards from your team.

    Hope I helped, and good luck!

    Hey! Interesting team you have here!

    First of all, I agree with all of DracoNinja's changes, so go ahead and take those.

    After all the changes from up above, you still have quite a weakness to Chandelure yourself. I suggest you change your Porygon-Z to a Silk Scarf or Choice Band Snorlax. Just so it can tank hits and then pursuit trap Chandelure or any other frail ghost types.

    Anyways, this was a nice RMT. Hope I helped and good luck!

    Alright so first off, I am pretty confused at the moment.

    You label this team with the 5th Gen OU prefix and mention Ferrothorn when discussing why you use Low Kick on Bisharp. However, your team consists of 2 UU Pokemon (Mew and Porygon-Z), 2 LU Pokemon (Bisharp and Feraligatr), an NU Pokemon (Drifblim), and an NEU Pokemon (Throh).

    I am pretty sure that, as Yagura said, this is meant to be a UU team. But, regardless of the tier, it could use some major refining. This is the Pokemon Online Black and White Tier List. Feel free to use this if you are unsure of what is in each metagame. While you may incorporate Pokemon from lower tiers into teams in higher tiers, like you have Bisharp on this UU (?) team, sometimes they are obsoleted by a Pokemon in the above tier making them less usable. For example, you wouldn't use Agility Zapdos in OU since OU has Thundurus-T.

    To cut to the chase, this is probably one of your first teams and it is good that you are doing well for your standards (peaking 1250), but if you seek increased success then using Pokemon that are in or closer to the tier that synergize well and cover all of the threats will help a ton.

    Anyway, now that I have explained that, I will give you some suggestions based on the wifi UU tier, which this team technically fits in, as I previously stated.

    First off, as the others said, you have a glaring weakness to common electric types. In order to fix this, Snorlax is a logical alternative thanks to amazing Special bulk.
    Snorlax (M) @ Silk Scarf
    Trait: Thick Fat
    EVs: 252 Atk / 52 Def / 200 SDef / 4 Spd
    Adamant Nature (+Atk, -SAtk)
    - Return
    - Crunch
    - Pursuit
    - Earthquake
    That is the set which I advise. It keeps the normal typing that Porygon-Z had and also deals out a significant amount of damage. The only con is that you lose speed.

    Next off, I understand the wanting of a ghost + hazards kind of core. However, I don't agree with your current one as Drifblim and that Mew set are mediocre in the current metagame. In order to fix this, I am going to suggest using Golurk instead of Drifblim and Qwilfish instead of mew (this also helps a ton with problematic fighting in types and physical attackers.
    Golurk (M) @ Leftovers
    Trait: Iron Fist
    EVs: 240 HP / 252 Atk / 16 Spd
    Adamant Nature (+Atk, -SAtk)
    - Shadow Punch
    - Earthquake
    - Ice Punch / Magic Coat
    - Stealth Rock

    Qwilfish (M) @ Black Sludge
    Trait: Intimidate
    EVs: 240 HP / 240 Def / 28 Spd*
    Impish Nature (+Def, -SAtk)
    - Taunt / Toxic Spikes / Thunder Wave
    - Waterfall
    - Pain Split
    - Spikes
    *Not sure about EVs. I want it to hit 210 Speed. Take/Add from defense EVs until it is that or above it.
    Now that you have hazards, a ghost, and a decent bulky core, your remaining team members can balance it out and be sweepers / offensive Pokemon.

    Instead of Throh, I am going to advise a Life Orb Zapdos with Roar. I know you might not be sure why I would change it to a totally separate Pokemon with nothing in common in Throh - so let me explain. You need a special attacker and something to deal with water types and spread hazards damage - this works out well.
    Zapdos @ Life Orb
    Trait: Pressure
    EVs: 252 SAtk / 4 SDef / 252 Spd
    Timid Nature (+Spd, -Atk)
    - Thunderbolt
    - Hidden Power [Grass]
    - Roar
    - Roost

    Now, you need a choice scarf user. Since you already have a bulky water, I am going to suggest not using Feraligatr. Now, to fill that team slot, you should use scarf Nidoking which is another special attacker and it fits into the team well with your Bisharp set being the last Pokemon.
    Nidoking (M) @ Choice Scarf
    Trait: Sheer Force
    EVs: 252 SAtk / 4 SDef / 252 Spd
    Timid Nature (+Spd, -Atk)
    - Earth Power
    - Ice Beam
    - Focus Blast
    - Fire Blast

    I hope that my revisions can help you and good luck in the future!
