What tier?

---

I'm thinking it can contend in OU

Get Serene Grace on Togekiss instead of Hustle, put Night Slash instead of Swagger on Malamar.

Thank you everyone for your responses, I added talonflame, which has been an amazing boost. I've been trying different things with malamar, and it doesn't seem to fit, this team seems to need a cleric. I was thinking of a Vaporeon to heal up the team (Scald, Wish, Substitute, baton pass) with 252 HP and 252 Def 4 SpDef. Thoughts?

Answer 1

Aggron: Good, very good.

Klefki: Since you already have Stealth Rock, why don't you replace Spikes with Thunder Wave? Also, Klefki can take a hit, so give him the Light Clay, (Makes Light Screen and Reflect last for 8 turns) and replace Dazzling Gleam with Foul Play. I know Dazzling Gleam is STAB, but with a support Klefki you might want a move that runs off stats.

Togekiss: Sorry, but I don't see much point in this. How about you replace it with this Pokemon?

Talonflame@ Leftovers/Life Orb
Trait: Flame Body
Nature: Adamant
EVs: 252 Speed, 252 A, 4 HP
Moveset:
Brave Bird
Flare Blitz (Yes, this is Physical)
Roost
Toxic

This Pokemon is kind of a kamikaze bomber, but it works. Its high speed and attack make it an excellent sweeper. Brave Bird and Flare Blitz are for STAB, Roost is for recovery, (with all the recoil you're taking you'll need it.) and Toxic is for adding more damage to your oppenent. If you really want to keep Togekiss, replace Hustle with Serene Grace.

Goodra: Excellent.

Tyranitar: If you put T-Tar out with Aggron you should be good with the Sand Stream ability. To just say something, I think a physical T-Tar is better then a Special one. Consider this:

Tyranitar@ Expert Belt
Trait: Sand Stream
Nature: Rash
EVs: 252 A, 252 HP, 4 Sp. D
Moveset:
Earthquake
Crunch
Rock Slide
Dragon Dance

This guy is such a tank it's not funny. Two dragon dances and he literally wreaks EVERYTHING!

Malamar: I have a Malamar too, and I really like him. However, you might want to consider some changes.

Malamar@ Black Glasses/Leftovers
Trait: Contrary
EVs: 252 HP, 252 A, 4 Sp. A
Nature: Relaxed
Moveset:
Superpower
Topsy-Turvy
Night Slash
Psycho Cut

He can smash through everything like this. Superpower gives a nice Attack and Defense boost, which powers it up and powers up Night Slash. Psycho Cut is coverage and STAB, and has a increased critical hit chance. Night Slash gets a boost from the Black Glasses, (if you use them) and STAB.

Thank you so much for your help! I decided to throw on the Talonflame over togekiss, works so much better!

Thank you!

Answer 2

Aggron-This set is very good, but i would use Iron Head over Heavy Slam. Although, Aggron DOES weigh a lot, so Heavy Slam could still work for you.

Klefki-Give Klefki a Light Clay, since Klefki is bulky enough to take a hit. Also, replace Dazzling Gleam for Foul Play, or Thunder Wave. I highly would recommend Foul Play though.

Togekiss-I don't see you using a Para-Flinch set, so im assuming this is playing as a supporter. I honestly think using a Sylveon would be a better choice. It's bulky and strong. Here is a pretty good set;

Sylveon@Leftovers/Lum Berry
Pixilate
EVS-252 HP 252 Sp. Defense 4 Sp. Attack
Calm
-Hyper Voice
-Calm Mind/Toxic
-Wish
-Heal Bell
Your team isn't fragile, but you can still use Sylveon to serve as a team-cleric. Also, most of your Pokemon can't heal itself, so having a cleric helps out ALOT.
If you still insist on using your Togekiss, use Para-flinch.

Togekiss@Leftovers
Serene Grace
EVS-252 Sp. Attack 252 Sp. Defense 4 HP
Modest/Calm
-Thunder Wave
-Roost/Nasty Plot
-Air Slash
-Flamethrower/Aura Sphere
This is usually what a Para-flinch Togekiss looks like. Obviously you need the Paralyze status on the opponent. You can use Roost to heal yourself, or use Nasty Plot to hit hard. Also, Air Slash is obviously needed, too. Flamethrower is for Aegislash check, while Aura Sphere is to cover most of your weaknesses.

Goodra-I actually run mine like this:

Goodra@Assault Vest
Gooey
EVS-252 HP 252 Sp. Attack 4 Sp. Defense
-Draco Meteor/Dragon Pulse
-Fire Blast
-Sludge Wave
-Thunderbolt
This Goodra set offers great type coverage.

Tyranitar-I don't believe in Sp. Attacking Tyranitar. Also, your team isn't very fast. So lets use a fast Special Sweeper.

Gengar@Focus Sash/Life Orb
Levitate
EVS-252 Sp. Attack 252 Speed 4 Sp. Defense
Timid
-Shadow Ball
-Sludge Bomb
-Thunderbolt/Substitute
-Focus Blast/Disable
This set is used to offer coverage, unless you are using the very-known Sub-Diasable set. Honestly, there are LOTS of Gengar sets out there, so you can use a different set from mine.

Malamar-Your Malamar is fine, but how about some changes?

Malamar@Leftovers
Contrary
EVS-252 Attack 128 HP 128 Sp. Defense
Adamant
-Topsy-Turvy
-Night Slash
-Psycho Cut
-Superpower
This is a very known Malamar set. Most people would suggest using 128 Defense>Sp. Defense, but use 128 Sp. Defense since Superpower will INCREASE the Defense of Malamar, as long as if Contrary is the ability.

Overall, this is a pretty good team. I like it. Anyways, good luck in competitive battling, and have fun!
