    Hello, this is my team that landed me #1 and #2. It basically whittles everything down until I get a Sweep with Manaphy or Arceus, while beating common threats along the way.

    Team Buiding Process: Gruppe Bau Prozess

    Well I knew I wanted to Sweep with Manaphy, so he naturally goes in the team.
    [​IMG][​IMG][​IMG][​IMG][​IMG][​IMG]

    And Obviously you need Kyogre for Manaphy to be effective at anything, so he's in.
    [​IMG][​IMG][​IMG][​IMG][​IMG][​IMG]

    And then I thought 'What Pokemon can take out common checks to Kyogre and Manaphy?' and Immediately I thought of Dialga.
    [​IMG][​IMG][​IMG][​IMG][​IMG][​IMG]

    And now I needed something with Stealth Rock, and I needed something to sponge Dragon- attacks. Ferrothorn was the Perfect Choice.
    [​IMG][​IMG][​IMG][​IMG][​IMG][​IMG]

    Now I wanted something as a backup sweeper, and I lacked priority. Arceus fit the bill nicely.
    [​IMG][​IMG][​IMG][​IMG][​IMG][​IMG]


    Now I just wanted a kick ass lead that could beat Groudon, Forretress, and Deoxys leads. And Giratina-O does all of that.
    [​IMG][​IMG][​IMG][​IMG][​IMG][​IMG]



    A Look That Is Closer: ein Blick, der klarer ist



    [​IMG][​IMG]
    CrshBoomBang (Giratina-O) @ [​IMG] Griseous Orb
    Trait: Levitate
    EVs: 252 Atk / 216 SAtk / 40 Spd
    Lonely Nature (+Atk, -Def)
    - Draco Meteor
    - Outrage
    - Shadow Sneak
    - Hidden Power [Fire]

    My badass lead right here. Basically all he does is attack, and then if you don't die he'll Shadow Sneak you to death. He's helpful because Groudons take the HP Fire and think they can live, and then they'll die to Draco Meteor after. Forretress Takes a HP Fire and then dies to a Shadow Sneak. Same could be said for the Deoxys leads. He only really struggles with Dialga leads, and LeadOgre that are faster. (which happens sometimes) A lot of times he'll come back Late-game through an immunity, and then start to blast wholes in anything. This combined with Manaphy makes the perfect stall-breaker, IMO.

    I named him CrashingBoomBang (it doesn't fit >.<) because he is a pro.



    [​IMG][​IMG]
    Roy Mustang (Ferrothorn) (M) @ [​IMG] Shed Shell
    Trait: Iron Barbs
    EVs: 252 HP / 8 Def / 248 SDef
    Careful Nature (+SDef, -SAtk)
    - Power Whip
    - Leech Seed
    - Stealth Rock
    - Thunder Wave

    Ferrothorn is vital to this team. He's my only Dragon- Resist, and my only way to set-up Stealth Rock. He also has the bonus of Thunder Wave, which helps Manaphy/Arceus Set-Up much more easily. He's also my best switch-in to Zekrom, on which I can lay my Rocks down. Careful because I want to be taking Draco Meteors and Surfs all day long. I put 8 Def because it gives him 300 Defense and that looks cooler than 299 Defense. (Don't Question it :x) Power Whip lets me do Huge amounts of Damage to Kyogre, Groudon, Palkia, etc. and it's also helpful to troll Espeon switch-ins, trying to predict me. I run Shed Shell because I don't want to lose to Chandelure, even if it means losing Leftovers. I'm considering putting Spikes on this set, but I don't know where to put it, as all of the moves on this set are very essential.

    I named him Roy Mustang because he can take it in the ass all day long.



    [​IMG][​IMG]
    Blue Star (Kyogre) @ [​IMG] Leftovers
    Trait: Drizzle
    EVs: 240 HP / 232 Def / 36 Spd
    Modest Nature (+SAtk, -Atk)
    - Surf
    - Thunder Wave
    - Rest
    - Sleep Talk

    Kyogre, necessary for my team. This thing is probably the best SubRecover Ho-Oh counter in the game, being able to outspeed and live Brave Bird easily. Thunder Wave if for, again, letting my sweepers set-up easier. It's also great on Kyogre, since Latias and Zekrom are so common switch-ins, and getting Paralyzed cripples them for the entire game. Rest and Sleep Talk is great, as it allows me to get reliable recovery, and it's basically a necessity for this type of Kyogre. Max Defensive bulk is also great for taking Groudon's Earthquakes, Espeon/Lati@s's Psyshock, and Outrages. I'm still surprised by how little this guy takes from attacks.

    I named him Blue Star because Kyogre is Big, Blue, and Brazilian. ;)



    [​IMG][​IMG]
    Jedgi (Arceus) @ [​IMG] Silk Scarf
    Trait: Multitype
    EVs: 240 HP / 252 Atk / 16 Spd
    Adamant Nature (+Atk, -SAtk)
    - ExtremeSpeed
    - Shadow Claw
    - Swords Dance
    - Recover

    My other Sweeper. With SD, Extremespeed, and Silk Scarf, he can sweep teams quite easily. Especially with all the Thunder Waves I have throwing around, getting this thing to +2 or +4 is quite easy, and once you get going it's hard to stop. All of Arceus's Normal Counters, Lugia, Giratina, and Ditto, all are easily picked apart by this team. Extremespeed is also quite nice because I have a 96 Power STAB Attack is good for revenge killing too. 16 Speed is trollzy because I beat all of the 4, 8, and 12 Speed invested Arceus. Recover because this is supposed to be a Bulky Sweeper, and +6 Extremespeed does enough to everything Earthquake would hit. (And it's honestly not hard to get to +6 on Steel- Types)

    I named him Jedgi because Jedgi is God and has 28 Pack Abs.



    [​IMG][​IMG]
    Pearl (Dialga) @ [​IMG] Choice Scarf
    Trait: Pressure
    EVs: 4 HP / 252 SAtk / 252 Spd
    Modest Nature (+SAtk, -Atk)
    - Draco Meteor
    - Fire Blast
    - Thunder
    - Aura Sphere

    This guy synergies so well with this team. Scarf Dialga catches many people by surprise, as he isn't very common to be seen. He beats a lot of Kyogre and Manaphy's counters, which is great. He also has the bonus of not being weak to Dragon- and still having a 150 Base STAB Draco Meteor to work with. Fire Blast is for Ferrothorn, who trolls this team a bit otherwise. Thunder is obviously for Kyogre, Lugia, Manaphy & the such. Aura Sphere is mainly filler, but it has saved me a few times. I'm considering putting Outrage over Aura Sphere, but I don't want to lose my good Defenses.

    I named him Pearl because Pearl wanted to and doesn't know what to do against a Dialga.



    [​IMG][​IMG]
    -Manaphy- (Manaphy) @ [​IMG] Wacan Berry
    Trait: Hydration
    EVs: 80 HP / 252 SAtk / 176 Spd
    Timid Nature (+Spd, -Atk)
    - Surf
    - Grass Knot
    - Tail Glow
    - Rest

    My Main Sweeper of the team. With Tail Glow, he gains 748 Sp.Atk, combined with Dual-STABed Surfs. That you probably knew. The item I choose is very important, as it allows Manaphy to beat some of it's common checks. With Wacan Berry, Manaphy can live every Electric- attack in Ubers, and then strike back hard. Rest is here because Manaphy is bulky enough to take hits and it really helps set up another Tail Glow. (+6 Manaphy is unstoppable) I can't decide whether to use Grass Knot or Ice Beam, Grass Knot kills Kyogre and does more damage to Palkia, while Ice Beam hits Dragon- Types for Super Effective damage. +3 Surf is enough to 2HKO most Dragons, and usually OHKO with some prior damage. My EV's give me enough Speed to outrun all Base 90's, and Max Sp.Atk for obvious reasons, and the rest is dumped in HP.

    I named him -Manaphy- for self-explanatory reasons. :x



    Threat List: Bedrohung Liste


    [​IMG]Mewtwo: He can't set-up on anything, and he'll get Paralyzed and killed off.

    [​IMG]Lugia: He gets Paralyzed and Leech Seeded by Ferrothorn, and then It's easy Manaphy set-up.

    [​IMG]Ho-Oh: Can be annoying with Burns, but Kyogre handles almost all variants just fine.

    [​IMG]Latias: Set-Up bait for Arceus, Ferrothorn lols at it's attacks and Paralyzes it.

    [​IMG]Latios: See Latias.

    [​IMG]Kyogre: Ferrothorn, Arceus, and Manaphy set-up bait.

    [​IMG]Groudon: Can be annoying with Sun, but other than that he dies quite easily.

    [​IMG]Rayquaza: Dialga murders all variants.

    [​IMG]Deoxys-A: Ferrothorn, Giratina-O, and Arceus all beat him easily.

    [​IMG]Dialga: I don't have a direct counter, although he can't really do much to this team, and usually dies to my own Dialga. Bulk Up Versions are Leech Seeded by Ferrothorn and then played out by how he gets his Sleep Talks. BU has never actually swept me.

    [​IMG]Palkia: Ferrothorn walls non-Fire Blast versions, and he is easily revenged by Dialga.

    [​IMG]Giratina: Is Complete Set-up fodder for Manaphy and Ferrothorn. Giratina-O does a lot with Draco Meteor + Outrage.

    [​IMG]Giratina-O: Dialga kills it off, walled by Ferrothorn after a Draco Meteor/In the Rain.

    [​IMG]Manaphy: Ferrothorn is a good check, and Dialga can Thunder it.

    [​IMG]Darkrai: Kyogre completely shuts him down with Sleep Talk, same with Manaphy. Dialga/Arceus can revenge.

    [​IMG]Shaymin-S: Seed Flare and Air Slash can be annoying to this team, but Dialga is helpful if it's not Scarfed, and Arceus can keep Extremespeeding it until it dies.

    [​IMG]Arceus: I'm not gonna go over every forme, but basically Dialga/Giratina-O beats SD Versions and Ferrothorn/Kyogre beat CM Versions.

    [​IMG]Reshiram: Cannot do anything to me in the Rain,and Arceus sets-up on it while Dialga can kill him easily.

    [​IMG]Zekrom: Ferrothorn walls it, Dialga kills it, Arceus sets-up on Paralyzed ones.

    [​IMG]Ferrothorn: Dialga Fire Blasts, Giratina-O can HP Fire when there is no Rain, and Arceus can set-up on it.

    [​IMG]Forretress: Giratina-O laughs at it, Kyogre,Manaphy, and Dialga beat him up.

    [​IMG]Espeon: The only thing it does is try to Magic Bounce Ferrothorn, but it's easy to predict so Espeon can't do much but die.

    [​IMG]Chandelure: The only Pokemon it kills is Arceus, and other than that my team laughs at it.

    [​IMG]Garchomp: All of them are Scarfed so Ferrothorn/Kyogre.

    [​IMG]Chansey: Ferrothorn and Manaphy set-up bait.

    [​IMG]Blissey: See Chansey.

    [​IMG]Terrakion: Kyogre and Giratina-O both wall it hard.

    [​IMG]Scizor: Kyogre and Manaphy set-up bait.

    Yes because your penoir is so hawt.

    Nice team, I have used it multiple times already and it functions well (obviously since it got you to #1 and your alt to #2). There aren't any major weaknesses. The only change that I can see worth making is putting lum berry on arceus to help with ho-oh due to brave bird putting a massive hole in kyogre and to help with wil-o-wisping arceus's. It looses out on some ko's though without silk scarf, and leftovers can help it set up more.

    Edit: I came up with the title. :O And I am not gay or bi or bi curious btw.

    So true.

    There really isn't a lot to rate, seeing how this team has great synergy and success already. However, I am sceptical of one part in your threat list:

    Jolly Dragon Dance Rayquaza actually outspeeds and OHKO's Dialga with Earthquake. Of course, you probably won't let it set up in the first place (I prefer hitting Dialga on the switch anyway '-') and can play around it with your 2 priority users, Ferrothorns Iron Barbs and Kyogres Bulk, but it would suck losing Dialga to something dumb like that. Really, the only 2 Pokemon it can set up on are Dialga locked into a wrong move and +0 Manaphy, so its more of a nitpick than anything.

    Great team, but what's up with these weird German sentences x_X.

    That's true, and he can't set up on anything. If he is actually going to kill Kyogre, he's going to need to Outrage, or else he'll get Paralyzed and isn't a threat like that. If he Outrages, Ferrothorn can come in and Leech Seed, and if he tries to Overheat (most of them have it) it's a free Kyogre switch-in. And he'll probably just die to priority sooner or later. So pretty much what you said already.

    I've never battled you.. X_X

    Wait arent you the guy who started a rant against alts lol.

    Anyway the team is really good, though you'll have to watch out for Ho-Oh running Life Orb since they can 2hko kyogre. Other than that, there isnt really many weaknesses I can see, my team with Tentacruel has won against it but I lost mostly when I ran Espeon.

    The only other things that will threaten this team are some obscure CM arceus forms, and CM Latias if Nattorei dies.

    I have been messing around with this team, and it's really good. There's really nothing to replace that I can think of tbh.

    Latios can't OHKO a Kyogre with Psyshock, even after +1/+1, So then it'll get Thunder Waved, and after that she's not a problem. Latias needs a significant amount of CM's before she can really sweep this.

    Nattorei is essential for this team because it deals with arceus and also deals with kyogre, zekrom, and more noteable palkia (non choice varients can give it trouble). Scarf kyogre can give this team a lot of trouble if dialga is gone, and dialga usually dies fairly quickly. A special wall is also the roll that nattorei fills and forretress cannot do that as well as nattorei. Spinning is useful, but nattorei just fits better onto this team. Nattorei also has recover which forretress lacks.

    I don't need spinning at all. The thing I like about this team is that no one is Stealth Rock weak and 5/6's of the team is practically immune to Toxic Spikes.

    Not to mention that it's almost impossible to spin in ubers thanks to the bulk of stuff like Giratina and Ghost arceus :|

    If it matters right now, I'm running Ice beam on Manaphy, and I'm also putting Leftovers on Natty when I play on Wi-Fi.

    Probably gonna post this on Smogon too.

    What made you switch ice beam to grass knot? It makes you more kyogre weak, but I guess your team already handles kyogre.

    I would recommend leaving Grass Knot over Ice Beam (either that or taking off Rest for Ice Beam). What's the point of living through things like Kyogre's Thunders if you're not going to be able to ohko back?

    Meh, I don't know which one to choose. Ice Beam is really helpful because Lati@s or something along the line like to try to stop my sweep, but beating Kyogre and Palkia is nice too...

    Good team .Can't say Much as your #1. Well since manaphy is so slow why not try this:

    Kingdra (F) @ Choice Specs
    Trait: Swift Swim
    EVs: 240 HP / 252 SAtk / 16 Spd
    Hardy Nature
    - Dragon Pulse
    - Draco Meteor
    - Ice Beam
    - Surf

    Ev'ed to outspeed Scarf Zekrom in Rain And absolutely Rapes Late game. Do try it

    If you are really going to use that Kingdra (which I doubt, since Manaphy is this teams main way of beating Chansey/Blissey, not to mention that it actually has some staying power unlike Kingdra), bump the speed to 250 (176 EV's with a neutral Nature) or 247 (164 EV's with a neutral nature) to beat scarfed Garchomp/Palkia in the rain respectively (Yeah, Garchomp isn't really common, but at least run enough to beat Palkia). Furthermore definitely use Hydro Pump over Ice Beam, seeing how there is basically nothing Dragon Pulse/Ice Beam/Draco Meteor/Surf beats that isn't beaten by Dragon Pulse/Hydro Pump/Draco Meteor/Surf. Hydro Pump also means you will 3HKO Max HP/Max Special Defense Nattorei in Rain while Ice Beam will nearly always 5HKO.

    I just naturaly don't like specs Kingdra, but I have seen Deria use it to great success, though it was OU :L

    The whole point of this team was to use her favourite pokemon, Manaphy. It works just fine, and with the evs it has it trolls on zekrom and etc. by one point. I have watched her battle many times and kingdra cannot fill the role of manaphy on this team.

    With Kingdra I lose to stall, as Manaphy is one of the best stall breakers in the tier. Besides Kingdra lacks the raw power this Manaphy has, and the Recovery, Toxic Spikes immunity, etc....

    Nice team. I knew something was wrong when half the people battling used this team. Just wanted to point out, Mewtwo gives you some trouble if you can't predict right.

    She has scarf Dialga and Arceus to revenge Mewtwo, but it can still put a dent in her team.

    Not really. Mewtwo comes in, and can't set up on any Pokemon so he almost always using unboosted attacks. Dialga can comes in and lol at Mewtwo with Draco Meteor while my priority Users lol at it. Mewtwo can't actually OHKO anything on this team apart from Dialga (who is faster and kills it anyway)

    Well it still gives you problems. It naturally out-speeds 5/6 of your team, and if it gets to just +1 it can just put major holes, since you'll need to switch constantly. Since Mewtwo is most of the time a mid-game sweeper, you can bet that your opponent will realize you have a Scarf Dialga, so (s)he can anticipate your move and sponge your attacks. Yeah, you counter it, but it's still a major threat once Dialga is down. And almost all teams pack an Arceus check, so it's not a reliable counter to Mewtwo. Also, unboosted E.Speed doesn't OHKO at Max HP. Just saying.

    Well it may not OHKO anything, but I'm pretty sure it can clean your entire team after some prior damage. Psycho Break 2HKOs Kyogre and Manaphy, while Aura Sphere 2HKOs Nattorei and (I'm not completely sure) Arceus, and Ice Beam is a OHKO for Giratina.

    Mewtwo can never get a CM though. I've never been swept by a Mewtwo (maybe people who use my team have) and it's very easy to play around. You are ignoring the fact that It can't OHKO Kyogre or Nattorei even after a boost,and it'll almost never get a boost. (Seriously, The only time it can set-up is Dialga on Aura Sphere) And once I take the attack I can just paralyze it and then kill it off. Mewtwo Can't OHKO Arceus either, so he'll likely get killed off there (with Shadow Claw), while Extremespeed can kill it off anyway if it has taken some damage (which it most likely will). It can't OHKO Giratina-O either, I have lived countless Ice Beams from Mewtwo with it, meanwhile I 2HKO him with Shadow Sneak or Draco Meteor. And if he's coming in on Manaphy I will likely have a TG up, live whatever he throws at me, and OHKO.

    It seriously doesn't cause much trouble for this team at all.

    Manaphy, I don't see Mewtwo causing problems to this team either, but Giratina and Lugia using Calm Mind / Rest and Recover can cause some problems.

    I usually don't have much of a problem with them, as I can just paralyze them and then proceed to set up/kill them off. And Ferrothorn's Leech Seed annoys them hard.

    Yeah ScarfDialga tends to catch many people by surprise, I don't run Timid because I'm not really outspeeding anything valuable with it.
