I would definitely recommend at least running Protect/Spiky Shield for Ogerpon on a few of your mons. The most likely candidates you can drop for them are Knock Off Ogerpon, Mystical Fire Flutter and Heavy Slam Groudon. As for the team. I'd replace Ribbombe with either Whimsicott/Tornadus as...

I think Tera Fairy is a very solid Tera option. It turns it's Fighting weakness into a resist, removes Excadrill's Water, Fire and Ground weaknesses. Also most Steel/Poison users are not going to want to run into it given their weakness to STAB Ground. Also I feel Choice sets should have Mold...

Gyarados is there for a few key reason: 1. Is there as the secondary method of dispatching things that make Mega Heracross' life difficult such as Landorous-T and Gliscor, the first being Thundurus-I. Substitute is really strong against Gliscor in general, as Intimidate cuts Gliscor's attack...

I can understand the concerns with the Scarf Keldeo MU, however it isn't too hard to mitigate with good play and as I already mentioned Cresselia is a Pokemon I have used previously to mitigate Keldeo easily if the Scarf MU becomes more relevant than I have seen. I do disagree with the Bulky...

That is the Plan A, either tank with Gyra and or Prankster T-Wave. However Mega Hera is guaranteed to tank a hit from Hydro Pump 68% and up without a crit so KO's via Bullet Seed, and does around 70-80% burnt if they go for Scald instead. The opponent needs to specifically keep the Keldeo...

Tera Dragon doesn't really work for Gliscor, as any Ogerpon-W using Play Rough over Knock Off is a 37.5% OHKO chance at +2 (against a 244HP/64 Def Impish Gliscor at full health). Not to mention getting gutted in one shot by Iron Valiant with minimal Sp Def investment. Also Dual Wingbeat if...

Introduction I decided to play some Gen 6 OU while I was thinking about changes I could make to my SV OU team, and immediately went back to my tried and tested Mega Heracross team that I had great success with during it's original run to top 10 on the ladder back in Gen 6, arguably being the...

Well well Conan how's it been? All the old gang finding eachother again after so long.

Thanks for the advice, will definitely try it. What are the calcs behind the 160 Def/16 Atk?

Minor nitpick with the spread. 60 Speed EV's comes out at 211, most Cress are running 52/56 which comes out at 219/220 to outpace Kingambit and Ursulana Bloodmoon that want to outpace Kingambit themselves.

So this is the first team i've been testing post the DLC. Seems to do ok but feel something is missing. Team At A Glance I liked Ting-Lu from previous teams. Hazard setter, good bulk, suppressor of most special sweepers and stat boosters. A solid 1st Pokemon to choose from...

Earthquake

Brave could be a potential option as a nature if you utilise Trick Room with Hatterne. Tera Blast with Tera Steel could be utilised to have an effective attack against the likes of Iron Valiant with this strategy. Connkeldurr undoubtedly suffers more than Infernape from there being quite a few...

I think the amount of Poison types (and by extension those that like to Tera into Poison) that are viable in OU, make Infernape's life pretty difficult as they can typically stomach the Fighting types attacks that unfortunately make up a sizeable number of Infernape's most viable moves. Poison...
