    Hey guys, thats my first RMT but this team is not a new one. I made it almost a year ago but it still works very good. I was too lazy to RMT it earlier but i wanted to hear what you think about this team and where it could be better.

    My Team:

    [​IMG] [​IMG][​IMG][​IMG] [​IMG] [​IMG]


    This was the only team that i used in the past and it never got boring. I got the ORAS Ubers topseed now for about 8 months and i climbed the ladder with this team too (with about 1700 points). Many people asked me if they can use my team and i saw it pretty often on ladder already but they have no idea how to set the evs and how to play it. So yeah, here is my team.


    Team im depth:



    [​IMG]

    Kangaskhan (W) @Kangaskhanite
    Trait: Scrappy
    EVs: 252 Atk, 252 Spd, 4 Def
    Jolly Nature
    - Fake Out
    - Return
    - Ice Punch
    - Sucker Punch

    I really love Kang. It has a good bulk and with its ability Parental Bond it hits like a truck. With Fake Out and Sucker Punch it has 2 great priority moves. Return is for stab. I dont use Double Edge because the recoil would be very bad for me. Also I run Ice Punch in this Gen since Mega Salamence is taking souls.


    [​IMG]

    Primal Groudon @Red Orb
    Trait: Drought
    EVs: 248 HP, 252 SDef, 8 Spd
    Sassy Nature
    - Stealth Rock
    - Earthquake
    - Lava Plume
    - Sleep Talk

    Pdon is a must have in this Tier. About itself i dont need to say anything. I run a mixed set with Sleep Talk and SR. Rocks are always important and no one expects a Sleep Talk groudon. So it can give Darkrais huge damage. Lava Plume over Fire Punch bc its 30% burn chance and Eq over Blades bc i really hate the 15% miss chance.


    [​IMG]

    Ferrothorn (M) @Rocky Helmet
    Trait: Iron Barbs
    EVs: 252 HP, 48 Def, 208 SDef
    Sassy Nature
    - Protect
    - Leech Seed
    - Spikes
    - Gyro Ball

    Ferrothorn is a nice bulk and also there to set spikes. Since i have no Defoger in this team i need to set own Hazards. Pdon already has Stealth Rocks so Ferro gets Spikes. Leech Seed + Protect is to get HP back and Gyro Ball hits things like Xerneas, Diancie, Latios, Arceus pretty hard. It has Item Rocky Helmet so physical attackers gets about 28% damage from the Helmet + Iron Barbs. Its a nice switch in for Pokemon like Kangaskhan, Latios (unless HP Fire one) or Espeeders.


    [​IMG]

    Darkrai @Leftovers
    Trait: Bad Dreams
    EVs: 252 SAtk, 252 Spd, 4 Def
    Timid Nature
    - Dark Void
    - Dark Pulse
    - Sludge Bomb
    - Substitute

    Darkrai is one of my favourite Pokemon, but then i miss with my Dark Void and hate it again. Thats one reason why i have Sub + Leftovers and not a sashed Nasty Plot set. Also it saves me from Toxic, WoW or Twaves. Another reason why I dont run Focus Sash is that i dont have a defoger. So if my opponent has Rocks up, my Item is useless. Dark Pulse is for stab and Sludge Bomb for fairys like Xerneas and Clef.


    [​IMG]

    Xerneas @power Herb
    Trait: Fairy Aura
    Evs: 72 HP, 252 SAtk, 184 Spd
    Timid Nature
    - Geomancy
    - Moonblast
    - Aromatherapy
    - Hidden Power Ground

    At first I have to say i run 184+ Speed EVs on it because it hits 307 Speed and outspeeds Jolly/Timid Pokemon with 90 base speed. I know they are very uncommon but in some situations it let me win the match. Also I outspeed most other Xerneas. I think i dont have to say anything about Geomancy and Moonblast, Hp Ground is for a 2HKO on Pdon and Aromatherapy to support the other Pokemon.



    [​IMG]
    Arceus @earth Plate
    Trait: Multitype
    EVs: 252 Atk, 252 Spd, 4 HP,
    Adamant Nature
    - Earthquake
    - Stone Edge
    - Extreme Speed
    - Swords Dance

    This Arcues is a great late game cleaner. After a swords dance it can kill most pokemon in this tier. It is Adamant for full power but it gets outspeeds now by Latioas/Latios. Jolly set with Dragon Claw over Espeed os possible too but i love this priority


    Threats:

    Ho-oh: Ho-oh is a threat for most teams. But Arceus, Darkrai and Kang can deal very well with it.

    Mega Salamence: After a dragon Dance there arent many Pokemon that can stop it. But with Kangaskhan and Ferrothorn u can kill it too.


    As I already said, I peaked +1700 with this team and im still the topseed on Torunaments Channel. I also peaked the PS ladder with it some weeks after it got reseted.



    SHOUTOUTS:

    @Mysterious M - the biggest noob ive ever seen. But a good friend and always helps me
    @Draciel - Someone told me he is a cool guy and a good player, but I cant confirm this yet. Jk, my favourite Tour Owner, you are doing great work
    @Lacus Clyne - The best german Ubers player I know so far (except me ofc).
    @Elize Lutus - A great player and a nice guy. I love our 3v3 Singles battles.
    @gengar17 - "[...] won against La.Melle2402" "(00:00:00) La.Melle2402: Bullshit." Since u said this the first time everyone says this too after i lose a match. I hate u so much for this ;-;
    @Casparov - He brought me to my great clan. A great player and a fantastic person.
    @Brycen-Man - Ily
    @JoyFrost - such a nice person!
    @Fate Testarossa - Man start playing, this is a battle simulator and not a dating app

    The team i hate so much <3 It is a really good team imo, but i can not see Ho Oh switch ins. (Primal Groudon can be earthquaked from banded set)
    Thats the only thing i have to say but you know the team well and you peaked many times, so yeah! Go on. Looking forward for more of our battles :)

    as a guy who doesnt play ubers but rekt u literally every single time, i gotta say u clearly sux.
    ok so for srs stuff, u have nothing for banded ho oh (which runs 3 atks sleep talk), and i always noticed in our battles that your groudon switch in is ferrothorn hoping for no fire move, otherwise it's groudon ._.
    also since ur pdon and ferro dont have recovery (besides leech), they would get worn down pretty fast by the likes of darkrai , pogre or w/e, why is ur darkrai counter darkrai?
    your team would definitely get worn down pretty fast with hazards as well. Also i can see a big mewtwo weakness, be it special fire blast variants or physical low kick variants. (hell, even stalltwo) (and darkrai keeps inviting klefki to set up more hazards)
    so to fix ur pdon + ho oh + hazard + mewtwo weakness, i recommend fat waterceus (252 hp 200 def 56 speed bold), with toxic/wisp, judgment, recover and either icebeam for sala, defog if u dont care about ur hazards, or psych up to beat cm rockceus ,,,,
    so if u opt for a fat arceus instead of ur garb sd one, u can either remove ur garb kanga that frzes everything and change it to mega sala that just outclasses it in every way, or u can run some cool sd sr pdon
    and to fix ur darkrai weakness u can change ferro to klefki, that way u have more speed control cuz ur team is slow af, and u get spikes up
    im gr8 ubers players m8
    hope i helped

    edit: M is garb at rating teams, he didnt notice any of this ^ and didnt help u with pdon weakness, im clearly the better player, he cant even beat my lucario

    Maybe consider playing Arceus-Rock so you deal with both Ho-Oh and megamence easier. You can give it offensive approach or even a defensive. I strongly recommand you to play Refresh if you do so.

    Other than that nothing. Sucks you rely on hiting Dark Void

    I like how everyone share their teams for RMT. Keep up the good job guys. And yeah I don't know how to rate your team since I don't play ubers but if I could revamp the Xerneas, I'm gonna give it
    - Focus Blast
    - Moonblast
    - Geomancy
    - Thunder

    (And for the shout out)
    That's true c:

    @gengar17 the main issue is what i pointed out. The Waterceus can be a good addition to the team, since it helps also against P.Don , so yeah go for it imo.

    Ah seeing this makes me reminisce about when I first started PO *wipes a tear of happiness from his eye*. Beating this team with the help of some severe dark void misses and a sucker crit (in retrospect that game was well and truly bullshit) was the happiest moment of my life. I hope you keep on being an inspiration to everyone out there :) sorry no actual team building advice

    Darkrais Substitute helps alot against Mega Sableye. Also Pdons Lava Plume works good and Xernead anyway. Arceus can make Sableye problems when it doesnt have full hp and i can get a sd somehow
