My title is easily the best ever. Don't lie.
So, this is my team for UU battling, I prefer UU due to a wider range of pokemon being usable, and you're not as likely to see teams that are basically the same. As such, I've thrown together a random team of UU pokemon. Due to my less than stellar experience within the UU environment there was virtually no specific threats taken into account when I made this team- It was simply checking the tier list, and putting together what I think would work.
So, this is my UU team:
Flygon@Choice Scarf
-Levitate
-Adamant
6HP/252Atk/252Spe
-Outrage
-Dragon Claw
-Earthquake
-U-Turn
Typical Scarfed Flygon- this teams revenge killer and scout. Flygon is useful due to it's absolute lack of Hazard weakness, I used to have Donphan on this team but since I took it off (Let's face it, donphan's kinda poo outside of spinning and SR'ing.), my previous scarfer was VERY hazard weak. Flygon really does not care about hazards and as such is an excellent scouter. It also allows me a potential late game clean up with outrage. My main problem with this guy is that outside of U-turn, he doesn't see much glory.
Cobalion@Leftovers
-Justified
-Jolly
26HP/252Atk/232Spe
-Swords Dance
-Close Combat
-Iron Head
-Stone Edge
This has got to be the star of my team, it's able to switch in on a multitude of pokemon and begin to set up. It combos for a good sweep with Mismagius due to them both being able to take out the things they're individually weak to, not to mention it gets a Justified boost from Mismagius's dark weakness. The speed Ev's allow me to outspeed base 105's, such as scyther, before it's able to get off a brick break.
Rhyperior@Chesto Berry
-Impish
-Solid Rock
180HP/216Def/114SpD
-Stone Edge
-Earthquake
-Stealth Rock
-Rest
RestoChesto Rhyperior is such a tank, it's unreal. The amount of physical attackers that keep ramming attacks as it, thinking it has no recovery, just to get rested on after I've set up SR and hit them down to low health. That's the main reason why I chose Rhyperior- it hits like a truck, unlike Donphan, it can actually deal damage back, which was why I made the transition. This also acts as my status absorber. Interestingly enough, SR and Rest have saved me a few times, as they allow me to PP stall out things such as Deoxys-D with Seismic Toss/Night Shade.
EV's hit lefties point, highest jump in Def and then rest into SpD to be able to somewhat deal with surprising mixed attackers.
Milotic@Leftovers
-Marvel Scale
-Calm
212HP/121Def/176SpD
-Recover
-Ice Beam
-Toxic
-Scald
Pretty standard Milotic, my main Special Wall, though I've it's used very little outside of making a feeble attempt to burn something threatening, or Toxicing a wall. To this means I've been considering swapping it for some sort of bulkyish wall breaker? It just doesn't seem to acheive what I'd hope it to. Fair enough, it NEVER dies, but it never makes anything else die either. It's just kinda a staller, which I despise.
Mismagius@Life Orb
-Levitate
-Timid
4HP/252SpA/252Spe
-Nasty Plot
-Shadow Ball
-Thunder Bolt
-Hidden Power (Fighting)
Mismagius is my special sweeper, she pairs up decently with Cobalion. and between them, they're usually able to take down a great many of my opponents team, I use their bulk and resistances to switch in early game and scout for checks, which allows them to each weaken the others counters. the onyl problem I have between them is Deoxys-D, who Mismagius fails to OHKO with a +2 Shadow Ball. I've been considering shifting out Hidden Power (Fighting) for Psychic, purely to kill the onslaught of damn heracrosses that switch in and threaten me with pursuit, though I'm then open to Weavile; It's a vicious circle that makes me despise pursuit.
Venusaur@Leftovers
-Overgrow
-Calm
204HP/90Def/216SpD
-Leech Seed
-Sleep Powder
-Giga Drain
-Sludge Bomb
I'm going to love this thing until the day I die. Bulky Venusaur is so underrated, it's unreal. It's usually my lead because of the amount of leads that just don't want to stay in on it, I'm then able to sleep powder their switch and leech seed what I've put to sleep or leech seed their next switch in. This pokemon is great for breaking down teams. I've considered swapping Sludge Bomb for substitute, but it leaves me completely open to grass types (Which is basically just celebi, since few other grass types will switch in on Venusaur).
Ev's hit lefties point, jump point in SpD and rest in Def for sponging physical hits better.
So, that's my UU team- any criticism will be much appreciated, thanks in advance
