Shaywin makes a team rate it

Well, basically this is my team that I mainly win with, I know there are some flaws, but nothing obvious.


Aerodactyl @ Focus Sash
Jolly Nature
EV's: 6 HP / 252 ATK / 252 SPE
Rock Slide
Earthquake
Stealth Rock
Taunt

This Pokemon may be suicide and easy to predict, but I like the fact how its faster than most leads, and screw them from setting up with taunt. Also it normally guarantees you to get Stealth Rock, before Aero's death when used correctly. Rock Slide provides STAB, as Earthquake hits those that resist it.


Kingdra @ Leftovers
Adamant Nature
EV's 24 HP / 252 ATK / 232 SPE
Waterfall
Outrage
Substitute
Dragon Dance

Kingdra is a beastly dragon dancer, thanks to its bulk and its typing making hard to revenge kill. After 1 DD Kingdra will reach 396 speed which will outspeed the likes of Jolteon and Aerodactyl and can easily OHKO'd them. Substitute allows it absorb most non attacking moves, and lets it guarantee a safe DD, I often use this on Dusknoir. The Water/Dragon combinated can hit atleast neutral on everything except Empoleon.


Heatran @ Choice Scarf
Naive Nature
EV's: 4 HP / 252 Sp. ATK / 252 SPE
Overheat
Earth Power
Dragon Pulse
Explosion

Scarftran is easily predicted, however it makes a amazing outcome and a good revenge killer / switch in. Overheat is needed since Heatran is most likely going to switch after its kill anyways. EarthPower hits opposing trans. I chose Dragon Pulse over Hidden Power Ice, because it hits so hard on Salamence and Flygon anyways, but Hidden Power Ice, I couldn't hit Kingdra and Latias with good amount of damage, so Dragon Pulse was my decision. Explosion is when you make the final attempt, I will often use this against; Blissey, Cresselia, Suicune, Vaporeon, etc.


Jumpluff @ Leftovers
Jolly Nature
EV's: 188 Def / 68 SpD / 252 Spe
Bounce
Encore
Substitute
Leech Seed

Plenty of battlers underestimate this beast, as a tiny pluffball, but really its force you much watch out for. Encore on anything that uses a Non attacking atk or something that won't break Jumpluff's substitute in a single hit. After that, sub up and then leech seed. This can be very annoying to the opponent and can wreck unprepared teams. Bounce is too only be used to gain leftovers recovrey if I already have up sub.


Suicune @ Leftovers
Bold Nature
EV's: 252 HP / 252 DEF / 6 SPE
Surf
Roar
Calm Mind
Rest

Well almost every team packs a phazer as it is a necessity in todays metagame. Stacking up calm minds has never been as easy before, with Suicune's uber like defenses it survive plenty of blows. Surf is for STAB, Roar is Pokemon who try and setup on it, and Rest is for livablitlty.


Lucario @ Life Orb
Adamant Nature
252 ATK / 4 DEF / 252 SPE
Close Combat
Stone Edge / Crunch
Extremespeed
Swords Dance

This sweeper wrecks plenty. Close Combat has a whopping 180 when factoring STAB making easy to 2HKO even physical walls. I haven't decided whether I should worry about Gyarados and Zapdos, or Dusknoir and Celebi, whatever stop Lucario in its tracks more should be covered. Extremespeed finishes off faster Pokes, with frail defenses. Swords Dance is to start a sweep.

Well this is my team give me suggestions / rate

um just a quick point, you already have kingdra to set up and sweep physically, and it is better than lucario at faking a special set, so lucario could switch to reversal lucario:
-endure
-reversal
-sword dance
-crunch
give him a salac berry and he can sweep

Another wall mabe needed, i like to have one physical/special and one mixed wall and then you have jumpluff to stall and lucario to sweep, so i would remove kingdra for a curselax with think fat which could help, or a wish, baton pass, curse, payback umbreon, a wish bliss a special defence dusknoir with WOW, or some other special wall , tht works well with suicune., just to stop sweepers from crashing through your team, like infernape will after it grass knots a weakneed suicune, only if heatran is taken out though

finally azelf is an option over aerodactyl, he has less weakness and has better synergy with your team, azelf can also explode, and u-turn.

All I can say is, Jirachi owns your lead.

I'll elaborate more on this later.

Well how many people actually use scarflead jirachi?

I have used a lead Jirachi and the Jirachi lead is becoming more common and is something not to be dimissed, but I wouldn't worry about it because lead Jirachi criples all leads that plan on setting up stealth rock, aerodactyl probably won't get up stealth rocks as there is a 60% chance he will flinch so just switch to Kingdra, suicunne or heatran, who can take an iron head especially the latter, and don't continue switching. Also, jirachi is the only pokemon in OU who can stop aerodactyl getting up sleath rocks.

and saying "Jirachi owns your lead" seems silly to me because electrode also "owns" your lead, no lead is perfect, aerodactyl is considered the best taunting lead who can set up stealth rocks, and as you don't have a rapid spinner I would say aerodactyl is the best lead for your team.

nice team jack. dont c much to change. good job

9/10 ^_^

Only thing I say is that a D-dance gyrados could cause serious damage.
Someone needs a thunderbolt.
