Hello there, i got no real speech ready but i hope this is long enough... here goes...


Uxie @ Light Clay
Ability: Leivitate
EVs: 252 HP / 128 Def / 128 SpD
Nature: Impish
Reflect
Light Screen
Stealth Rock
U-turn

This can take hits like a man, i guess, put rocks up then set up screens. I used to have Memento over Stealth Rock, but decided against it.
The screens really help while trying to set up and if this is getting replaced i'd like to get another screener in its place or somone else's.


Moves:

Reflect: Redude the damage against my pokemon while the set up.
Light Screen: Same as above.
Stealth Rock: One of the best moves in the game, no explanation needed.
U-turn: To Scout, Switching out after they hit me is helpful occansionally.

Dark goes to Tyranitar, Empoleon
Bug goes to Armaldo and Metagross, Empoleon
Ghost goes too Tyranitar, Empoleon



Metagross @ Choice Band
Ability: Clear Body
EVs: 240 HP / 252 Atk / 16 Def
Nature: Adamant
Meteror Mash
Earthquake
ThunderPunch
Bullet Punch

Generally, this thing is bulkyish enough to not need screens, so yeah, also I was thinking switching him too naughty and learning him Grass Knot to hit the common switch in that is swampert, most likey over bullet punch or thunderpunch.

Moves:

Meteror Mash: STAB, hits Rocks and Ice for 2X damage, plus 20 percent chance for raise attack even more is awesome.
Earthquake:Hits Fires and is just a good move.
ThunderPunch: Hits Gyarados and other waters which wall him.
Bullet Punch: Hits pokemon that justy barely live before they hit me.

Fire Goes too Tyranitar
Ground goes too Uxie



Alakazam @ Choice Specs
Ability: Synchronize
EVs: 4 HP / 252 SpA / 252 Spe
Nature: Timid
Psychic
Shadow Ball
Energy Ball
Signal Beam

My main special sweeper and Celebi counter, im not too sure about the choice specs but meh, life orb mabey?

Moves:

Psychic:Stab, hits rare poisons and machamp, heracross and other fighters.
Shadow Ball: For Dusknoir, plus other psychics.
Energy Ball: For Vaporeon, Swampert and other annoying waters, plus Tyranitar.
Signal Beam: Hits Tyranitar Again, Celebi, thinking about getting rid of this for focus blast.

Dark goes too Tyranitar, Empoleon
Bug goes too Metagross, Empoleon, Armaldo
Ghost goes too Tyranitar, Empoleon



Armaldo @ Life Orb
Ability: Battle Armor
EVs: 4 HP / 252 Atk / 252 Spe
Nature: Adamant
Stone Edge
X-Scissor
Earthquake
Rock Polish

Yes, Armaldo, i don't think most people think this a threat since its NU but its quite deadly when its in sandstorm.

Moves:

Stone Edge: Strong STAB Attack for flying types.
X-Scissor: Another STAB, super effects darks and grass, which is cool.
Earthquake: For Steels which otherwise wall him.
Rock Polish: +2 Speed puts him at 378 speed, outspeeding quite a bit for carnage.

Water goes to Empoleon
Rock goes to Empoleon, Metagross
Steel goes to Empoleon, Metagross



Empoleon @ Life Orb
Ability: Torrent
EVs: 24 HP / 252 SpA / 232 Spe
Nature: Modest
Hydro Pump
Ice Beam
Grass Knot
Agility

Yeah, I chose the Agility + 3 Attacks Set, because the AgilityPetaya set does not work too well for me. but this has quite a bit. The bonus of sandstorm immunity is cool too.

Moves:

Hydro Pump: High power STAB,
Ice Beam: Meant too take out dragons and Gliscor
Grass Knot: Damn Swampert...
Agility: Yet Again, Too Speed up and sweep.

Ground goes too Uxie
Electric, Well, Uxie? Tyranitar?
Fighting goes too Uxie



Tyranitar @ Leftovers
Ability: Sand Stream
EVs: 4 HP / 252 Atk / 252 Spe
Nature: Adamant
Stone Edge
Crunch
Earthquake
Rock Polish

Yah my little Tyrant! High Attack, his STAB's have nice side effects, summons sand, outspeeds stuff with Rock Polish, yeah.

Moves:

Stone Edge:Strong STAB for dragonite, salamence, gyarados, zapdos Ect.
Crunch: for those damn alakazam and gengar that focus blast me.
Earthquake: for infernape, Heatran, Ect.
Rock Polish: Used to outspeed, otherwise, ill take some hits and die.

Fighting goes too Uxie, not really Alakazam
Ground goes too Uxie
Water goes too Empoleon
Grass goes too Metagross
Bug goes too Armaldo I guess
Steel goes to Metagross, Empoleon

Well, Thats my team, critic, worship, whatever. Thanks for reading!
P. S. some people say this is a sandstorm team, would it?​
 
i think uxie is fine

on metagross if u want grass knot i wood recommend removing bullet punch, just MO

on alakazam, psychic may have STAB but i would still replace it with focus blast, if not still find a place for focus blast on the set. (FYI, meta does not resists bug)

i too like armaldo. best fossil in my opinion... anyway looks good but if u can't get up 2 rock polish then the spe evs are a waste. he won't outspeed much. maybe make him a specially-defensive attacker? over 350 spD with 252 evs and sandstorm. or put them in HP. but 378 spe is awesome. just something to consider...

i think empoleon is fine

t tar, again, not very good spe without the rock polish. but 221 is better then 189. again you could put those evs elsewhere, but that's up to you.

and yes it could be a sandstorm team. 2 pokes that benefit and 4 that resist
 
looks good but armaldo could be a gamble. also for uxie you might want to get rid of reflect for roar to stack on damage with steath rock
 
@ Nathan - I like armaldo for the reason that most people dont expect it and i checked uxie but it seems it does not learn roar... lol.

@ kiltank - about metagross, im thinking of just keeping bullet punch instead cuz i got 2 things that take take swampert anyway.

Armaldo - I like the specially defencive idea so ill test it, (i gotta breed for another so it might take awhile).

Alakazam - Ill try focus blast over... signal beam i guess.

Tyranitar - ill keep him the same i guess.

Please Keep Rating People.
 
This looks like a Hyper Offense team. Or it isn't, but its very close to a Hyper Offense one due to it having Screens and full of sweepers.

Normally, you wouldn't want to have a Choice item in it since you're gonna be wasting turns of the Screens. And thats the reason it isn't a Hyper Offense team.

Metagross would go with an Agility set.

Metagross @ Life Orb
Adamant
EVs: 60 HP / 252 Atk / 196 Spe
-Agility
-Earthquake
-Meteor Mash
-Ice Punch / ThunderPunch

Even without much power, 405 attack is still great.

Alakazam is on the same boat as Metagross. Choice items = waste of Screens.
A Calm Mind set is much better.

Alakazam @ Life Orb
Timid
EVs: 252 SpA / 252 Spe / 4 SpD
-Calm Mind
-Psychic
-Focus Blast
-Hidden Power Fire / Signal Beam


Dragon Dance Tyranitar is usually better than Rock Polish.

Tyranitar @ Life Orb / Babiri Berry
Jolly
EVs: 252 Atk / 252 Spe / 4 HP
-Dragon Dance
-Stone Edge
-Crunch
-Aqua Tail / Earthquake

Life Orb allows more power, but Babiri Berry would help against Scizor.



There.
