    Okay I'M Jayxus and I'm gonna post the strongest team I ever made in Ubers. It looks a lot like classic HOs except I put a Mega Mewtwo X instead of Mega Salamence. You will notice I have 3 taunters. People always tell me I could put better attacks of coverage.. but taunt is so good and I'll explain how to play this team.
    1. [​IMG]
    Deoxys-S @ Focus Sash
    Trait: Pressure
    EVs: 252 HP / 4 Atk / 252 Spd
    Jolly Nature
    - Skill Swap
    - Stealth Rock
    - Taunt
    - Magic Coat

    First member of the team : Deoxys S. Its here for the rocks mostly.. and with the other attacks it has, it won't get the rocks on my side. Its very important because I got sash on Darkrai and I don't have a defogger. Skill Swap for Mega Sableye/Diancie. Taunt for random setters and magic coat for other Deoxys S.
    Biggest problem is when the Sableye doesn't mega on first turn and shoots a foulplay ;-; or when I face these lead Excadrill. Maybe Lead with Xerneas if you face a player that could play tricky with these Sableye. Or lead with Mega Mewtwo X if you feel the Excadrill (Mewtwo has taunt :D)

    Groudon @ Red Orb
    Trait: Drought
    EVs: 240 HP / 252 Atk / 16 Spd
    Adamant Nature
    - Earthquake
    - Fire Punch
    - Rock Polish
    - Stone Edge

    This is the RP Pdon. He usually comes out on taunted pokes and immediately rock polishes.
    EQ for most pokes and the accuracy and to kill ditto ! The 240 HP evs let it survive EQ from itself at full HP and kills the ditto cause 401HP>300HP lol.
    Fire Punch is the attack I spam the most, it's stronger than EQ (167BP>150BP)and has a little burn chance.
    Stone Edge for the Ho-Hoes and Rayquaza
    Beware though, Giratina-O, Lati@s and Mega Mence are pokes that trouble Pdon so make sure they get weakened.

    Xerneas @ Power Herb
    Trait: Fairy Aura
    EVs: 44 HP / 28 Def / 252 SAtk / 184 Spd
    Modest Nature
    - Geomancy
    - Moonblast
    - Ingrain
    - Substitute

    This Xern is an awesome original set ! Watch the Team Preview carefully to see what pokes there are to counter it. If you see Chansey or Klefki, use Substitute first. This will prevent T-Wave or Toxic and the evs I gave it makes sure it survives the Seismic Toss and Play Rough from Klefki. It's a good poke vs Stall.
    Ingrain is mostly for Pdons who like to roar at it.
    Anyway, I almost always Sub before doing anything else cause I'm a coward :P

    Darkrai @ Focus Sash
    Trait: Bad Dreams
    EVs: 252 SAtk / 252 Spd
    Timid Nature
    - Nasty Plot
    - Dark Void
    - Dark Pulse
    - Taunt

    This is a sash Drai. It can save games when you lose momentum provided that the rocks are out and gets an emergency taunt before it dies so another poke can come in and set up.
    NP is used to sweep
    Dvoid to put to sleep
    Dpulse for Stab (and the flinch is cool :P)
    Taunt to taunt stuff. People always tell me to use Sludge Bomb, but imo its not as good as this cause sludge bomb without boost won't kill a Xern and anyway, taunt lets me prevent T-Waves and most of all prevents Xerns to set up on it and if they attack and kill Drai, it gives me a marvelous opportunity to set up Pdon or my own Xern. Taunt is also awesome to troll Sleep Talkers hehe xD

    5.[​IMG]
    Arceus @ Chesto Berry
    Trait: Multitype
    EVs: 88 HP / 252 Atk / 168 Spd
    Adamant Nature
    - Extreme Speed
    - Rest
    - Earthquake
    - Swords Dance

    Now this is my favorite poke in the team. ChestoRest Arc is so good. This thing can setup on so many pokes as it can recover full health and status in one turn. This set saved me so many times when i was in bad posture. Just set up on a poke that will probably use Will-o-Wisp or Toxic and continue set up and after you get like +4 just rest off the damage and its usually GG (Unless you forgot to kill Giratina-O ;-;) Anyway.. if you prefer regular Lum Berry Arc, you can use it but I really recommend you this set :) (Note that Ditto won't kill you at Max HP if you are at +4 because this arc is bulky as hell)
    168 spd Evs to outspeed Jolly Rayquaza's Espeed (yea even if it's uncommon, I got trolled and I hated it)

    6.[​IMG]
    Mewtwo @ Mewtwonite X
    Trait: Pressure
    EVs: 252 Atk / 4 Def / 252 Spd
    Jolly Nature
    - Drain Punch
    - Bulk Up
    - Taunt
    - Ice Punch

    Mewtwo X, the poke I dared removing Mega Salamence for. Well.. in the beginning it was mostly for making something different and it worked. This guy sets up easy vs unboosted Ekiller, even if it isn't taunted, I can Bulk Up the turn it SD and then survive the Espeed and kill with my Dpunch AND recover most of the HP I lost. This is amazing. Taunt is for like for Drai: it prevents Twaves and gives opportunities.
    Ice Punch is for the Dragons that I hate, like i said earlier : Gira-O, Latias, Salamence are a problem so I got something for them out of Xern.
    Bulk Up also increases Defense, so Ditto can not revenge kill it, and Dpunch is the better attack to use.
    I use this as lead if opponent leads with Excadrill. I taunt and then i can set up.


    Ok My RMT is over. It took me time to get to this point with it and I'm sure I could've gotten higher on the Ladder with it but after I topped I was AFK for a while and got too lazy to Ladder again with it.
    Atm I'm working on other teams and other concepts so my ranking doesn't go high ;-; Don't worry I'll soon be back :D

    Threats :
    Mostly Sableye Stalls : If you manage to Skill Swap the Mega Sableye it's good, you can then begin offensive pressure and if Sableye kills Deoxys in the process, its a perfect set up for Drai because it can Dark void it. Usually I lead with Xerneas cause then Sableye will Mega for sure (Fake Out) then when I send Deoxys out, I can directly use Skill Swap.
    Other Ho : Other Deoxys S are annoying, usually I spam magic coat hoping it can taunt it self. If the opp Deoxys spams it as well, I usually use Skill Swap in the middle so I get more PP. If opp Deoxys has damaging attacks it will be annoying.
    Giratina-O : This thing walls the Arceus, so make sure you kill it before sending it out.

    Nice team! :] I won a server tour against some really good players with an almost identical version of the team you gave me a while back so thx and the taunt darkrai saved me from SD arceus. The one problem I seemed to have with this team is it struggles to deal with ditto and it also has no ground resists which can hurt. But I can see how a good player should be able to stay on top of these problems by keeping up the momentum.

    Well actually as i said, Ditto can not kill Arceus, Pdon, nor Mewtwo X if full HP and yea.. i thought of the ground resistance.. it hurts badly when I lose momentum thats probably why Salamence is on most other HO teams. Anyway.. the pokes are meant to come one after an other most of the time so you won't be switching much if you chose the right poke at the right time. It takes some practice to see what poke to use in different situations and there are probably other things i didn't mention in the RMT
    Thanks for the reply I appreciate :)

    Hi cool team and nice to see original sets.

    I personally prefer Rock Slide over Taunt on MMX so you OHKO Ho-Oh after one Bulk up.

    Secondly, I also prefer Ice Beam on Darkrai on Taunt place since it can check Mega Salamence which otherwise decimates you if it gets 1 turn asleep.

    Xerneas set is cool however beware once Klefki breaks your sub it will get para.
    Exemple of situation: he switches to Klefki while you sub. He uses play rough and you Geo. He uses again Play Rough and breaks your sub while you deal around 60% with Moonblast. In other terms, you need to cripple Klefki a lot if you want that to work. Aromatherapy over Ingrain works too. Up to you

    Solid team overall, HO MMX is original and interesting enough to play. Grats on peaking also

    -from the current standpoint of your team, sableye can fake out deoxys turn 1 without mega evolving to break the sash and prevent hazards, then mega evolve and ohko u with foul play regardless if u skill swap or not, so first change i need u to make is change that useless jolly nature to timid, and put 0 atk ivs, that ensures that u survive fake out + foul play. (like seriously why do u even have 4 atk evs)

    -i'm gonna recommend sludge bomb over taunt or nasty plot on darkrai so u dont get 5-0d by clefable if pdon is gone, seriously dude u just lose to it, pdon isnt that hard to handle.

    -your team also seems to have difficulties dealing with : ho oh, opposing rock polish pdon, sd ghostceus, and bulky waterceus completely shuts down your pdon, u can prolly dump fire punch for sd and give xerneas aromatherapy over sub, another option is block xerneas instead of this one, just subbing wont save u from status all the time. u could probably change mmx to mmy with psystrike taunt icebeam focus blast or something which gives u better chances vs m gengar, has a chance of beating ekiller after rocks and deals a lot of damage to clef/ho oh, or u can use same set life orb mewtwo instead and which hits harder but then no mega, or u can use MEGA SALAMENCE with facade or refresh that beats ho oh, pdon, intimidates ekillers and ghostceuses, and sweeps a lot easier but then ull have to delete this rmt !
    hope i helped
