Ok, firstly, this is my first ubers team, so please help me.
This is my team:
@ Choice Specs
Ability: Drizzle
EVs: 252 HP / 252 SpA / 4 Def
Modest Nature (+SpA, -Atk)
- Water Spout
- Hydro Pump
- Ice Beam
- Thunder
Wanted this pokemon all along for providing rain and offense, not much to say except that I dropped Scarf for Specs due to Extremekiller Arceus (which is also why I dropped the speed EVs). Thinking of replacing Water Spout with something else as I rarely use that move. Ice Beam and Thunder for coverage.
@ Earth Plate
Ability: Arena Trap
EVs: 252 Atk / 4 Def / 252 Spe
Jolly Nature (+Spe, -SpA)
- Hone Claws
- Substitute
- Earthquake
- Stone Edge
This pokemon comes in onto Choiced Thunders, mostly from Palkia, Zekrom and Kyogre aimed at my Kyogre or maybe Skarmory, then proceeds to set up with Substitute and Hone Claws. Substitute allows it to take a hit, so Dugtrio is assured with 2 kills. Dugtrio also kills opposing T-tars with EQ. Note that a +6 SE OHKOs Lugia and EdgeQuake is nearly unresisted in Ubers.
@ Lum Berry
Ability: Multitype
EVs: 4 HP / 252 Atk / 252 Spe
Adamant Nature (+Atk, -SpA)
- Swords Dance
- Extremespeed
- Brick Break
- Shadow Claw
Standard Extremekiller set, though considering EQ over Brick Break. Lum Berry rids status, so at +2 I can 2HKO Giratina-O.
@ Life Orb
Ability: Air Lock
EVs: 4 HP / 252 Atk / 252 Spe
Adamant Nature (+Atk, -SpA)
- Dragon Dance
- Outrage
- Overheat
- Extremespeed
Standard set too, the nature is due to the fact that the speed increase with a Jolly nature does nothing of importance. Overheat and Outrage have near perfect coverage, and I haven't seen any Heatrans yet. Extremespeed is for Deoxys-A.
@ Choice Specs
Ability: Swift Swim
EVs: 4 HP / 252 SpA / 252 Spe
Modest Nature (+SpA, -Atk)
- Dragon Pulse
- Draco Meteor
- Hydro Pump
- HP Fighting
With a neutral nature and Max Speed EVs, it outspeeds everything except priority and other Swift Swimmers. Draco Meteor is for immediate power. Dragon Pulse and Hydro Pump has great coverage, while HP Fighting can damage Pokemon that resist both, such as Ferrothorn.
@ Leftovers
Ability: Sturdy
EVs: 252 HP / 252 Def / 4 SpD
Bold Nature (+Def, -Atk)
- Stealth Rock
- Spikes
- Roost
- Whirlwind
This thing gets completely shut down by Taunt, but usually Taunters are used as leads, such Deoxys-S. I usually come in on Outrages or Pokemon setting up, then lay hazards or phaze. Skarmory can take a +4 Brick Break from Arceus and phaze it away, then roost off most of the damage. I did consider Ferrothorn when Spikes + SR + Leech Seed became possible, but Roost is too good to pass up. I'm also considering an EV spread of 252 HP / 4 Def / 252 SpD with an Impish Nature, but I still feel Skarmory is better off walling Outrages and Extremekiller Arceus.
Please comment on my team!
