Thanks for reading. Please share your opinions and suggestions

Comments

I would personally go Lum over Chesto and then you can keep rest. This fulfills several things. Lum cures sleep if needed. Lum cures burns/TWaves. Lum cures confusion from Outrage. So it fulfills many roles as opposed to one role. Otherwise nice team.

---

Chesto + Rest fulfill the same role as a Lum Berry. Chesto wakes you up, while Rest rids of all other status. That way, Brotad can actually heal up with a Rest and begin a healthy say... +2 or +3 sweep, as opposed to a Lum berry being used of from a Toxic or Will-o-Wisp, and thus having to either...
1.) Sweep at low health
2.) Wait 2 turns from a Rest, and possibly still sweep at low health.

That's why Chesto is dearly preferred over Lum Berry in this situation.

Why not Infernape over Darmanitan so that you get STAB Fighting type and better speed?

---

Maybe ill try it but infernape brings the flying weaknesses to a total of three, and I don't even have a flying resist.... I was personally thinking of putting jolteon on the team, but I don't know who to replace...
Thanks for your help guys.

Ah, it all makes sense now Leboss xP

---

It was pretty explanitory MK :P
And tmlp, flying type moves aren't common in OU, and since Infernape gets Thunder Punch, it can easily revenge kill it's weakness to hell. You may bump into an occasional SubBounce Gyarados, (which would sweep the team at +2) which I've started to love Atm :3. So yeah, and since Infernape needs a scarf, it can outsleed its checks nicely. (Namely Landorus (T), Politoed, and Hippowdon).

Ok I suppose I can try it out. I'm also considering scarf rotom h as a replacement, and converting landorus to a primarily physical attacker, and then maybe giving celebi a nasty plot set. Or landorus can be the scarfer and have keldeo as a calm mind special sweeper and/or forgoing darmanitan and infernape all together in favor of jolteon. Or adding on heatran to make a celetran core... etc.... etc....
