    Hi all! Yesterday i canceled all my OU teams (they all sucked badly), so i decided to create a new one this morning, with random pokemon (as always), i don't even know if the weaknesses are covered, i just know that i had fun to play with it, and it's easy to use

    Modest Nature (+SAtk, -Atk)
    - AncientPower

    Gliscor (F) @ Leftovers
    Trait: Sand Veil
    EVs: 252 HP / 4 Def / 252 Spd
    Jolly Nature (+Spd, -SAtk)
    - Taunt
    - Roost
    - Earthquake
    - Toxic

    Breloom (F) @ Toxic Orb
    Trait: Poison Heal
    EVs: 12 HP / 252 Atk / 244 Spd
    Adamant Nature (+Atk, -SAtk)
    - Spore
    - Substitute
    - Focus Punch
    - Seed Bomb

    Starmie @ Life Orb
    Trait: Natural Cure
    EVs: 4 HP / 252 Spd / 252 SAtk
    Timid Nature (+Spd, -Atk)
    - Surf
    - Thunderbolt
    - Ice Beam
    - Recover

    Rotom-S @ Leftovers
    Trait: Levitate
    EVs: 64 HP / 212 Spd / 232 SAtk
    Timid Nature (+Spd, -Atk)
    - Substitute
    - Charge Beam
    - Shadow Ball
    - Hidden Power [Fighting]

    Weavile (F) @ Life Orb
    Trait: Pressure
    EVs: 4 HP / 252 Atk / 252 Spd
    Jolly Nature (+Spd, -SAtk)
    - Swords Dance
    - Ice Shard
    - Low Kick
    - Night Slash

    Yanmega: my favourite lead, he stops everything, i did several 6-0 with him, and he takes 50/60% damage from Cbanded Scizor's Bullet Punch. With Hypnosis you can stop something that you can't hurt much, like Rotom forms, with Ancient Power you have a nice element of surprise, since standard switch ins includes Zapdos and Gyarados.

    Gliscor: i don't exactly know why i put him, i just like him, I needed something that could resist electric and ground, and he was the first choice. I also use him to stop SkarmBliss and stall in general, he acts very well as a stall breaker.

    Breloom: nothing to say, i needed a powerful fighting pokemons, and I think machamp is too risky with confusion, so i took Breloom

    Starmie: one of my favourite pokemons, this time with Life Orb, to give extra power without the need of switch her out everytime, Recover can be used for LO damage

    Rotom-S: i was searching for a reliable Ghost, i needed something that could give me STAB electric attack, and then i went for Rotom. His natural bulkyness helps very much, and you can boost your sp. attack with Charge beam (i love this move lol). Hidden Power is for incoming Tyranitar, Lucario and Steel types in general

    Weavile: one of my favourite pokemons with Starmie, i needed something that could revenge kill Salamence/Flygon/Dragonite and so i went for her. She is a very good pokemon, able to 0HKO most of the metagame after a swords dance, Forretress takes 90% from +2 Low Kick, Scizor is 0HKOed (watch out from Bullet Punch), Kingdra is 2HKOed, Celebi is 0HKOed if it's not Physically Defensive, Rotom is 0HKOed, and without the boost of Swords Dance, he still takes 80/90% of damage, Metagross is 2HKOed, Heatran is 0HKOed without any boost (but ScarfTran kills you), she 0HKOs Snorlax and Blissey.


    Try this out, you will see how much it's easy to use and funny, Gliscor that Taunt Skarmory is priceless *_*

    Luck, you're so careless with EVs. missing 4 on gliscor and starmie.

    I can see the rare Agility Lucario giving you some problems since your team is not bulky enough. Agility/Close Combat/Crunch/Ice Punch outspeeds and can hit for SE damage everywhere (although CC does more to Breloom) and can probably OHKO everything - especially with SR up, which you can't spin away. I doubt you could stop it if it came out late in the game. SD Luke could also be a prob if Gliscor is down. Do not underestimate Lucario - it does a LOT of damage.

    The team is very solid offensively though.

    I corrected the EVs, thanks for noticing me, i always miss something when i EVs by myself xD

    However, if a Lucario comes i can kill him or doing him big damage with every pokemons in the team, so he doesn't have the time to setup

    Yanmega and Gliscor kills him with ground super effective moves
    Breloom can spore him or directly focus punch him (if he is choice it's not a problem, if he isn't, or he kill me with ice punch, without setup i can easily kill him, or it's a 0HKO by focus punch)
    Starmie Surfs for heavy damage (then Life Orb or Ice Shard by Weavile finish him)
    Rotom-S is the more problematic, but with HP Figthing can do quite nice damage, i don't know if it's 0HKO
    Weavile 0HKOs with Low Kick

    I just reached 1300 ladder points (which i never reached in my PO experience lol) with another nickname, so the team seems to work well

    Reasonable team mate. Glad you reached the magic 1300. I have several big problems with it, but not much use if you're doing so well, eh? =P
