I'm almost finished my first OU team (made possible in part by various people from Pokebase; sorry I forgot their usernames)! I need others to rate this so I can know if I'm ready for Battle Spot and/or tournaments once it's done. I'll also take suggestions as for how to improve the team further. Here's the team:
Bulky Lead
Tyranitar @ Smooth Rock
Ability: Sand Stream
EVs: 252 Atk / 252 Def / 4 SDef
Adamant Nature
- Earthquake
- Crunch
- Aerial Ace
- Stealth Rock
Speedy-ish Wall
Gliscor @ Toxic Orb
Ability: Poison Heal
EVs: 252 Def / 252 SDef / 4 Atk
Jolly Nature
- Toxic
- Roost
- Earthquake
- Protect
Physical Sweeper
Scizor @ Choice Band
Ability: Technician
EVs: 252 Atk / 252 Spd / 4 Def
Adamant Nature
- Thief
- Brick Break
- Aerial Ace
- Bullet Punch
Many people choose Night Slash over Thief, but Theif activates Technician; I'd prefer power over upped chance to crit. Brick Break makes up for lack of normal type coverage in the team. Aerial Ace never misses + technician boost. Bullet Punch has STAB + technician + priority
Special Sweeper
Alakazam @ Life Orb
Ablity: Magic Guard
EVs: 252 SAtk / 252 Spd / 4 SDef
Timid Nature
- Psyshock
- Dazzling Gleam
- Energy Ball
- Shadow Ball
Special Tank
Empoleon @ Leftovers?
Ability: Torrent
EVs: 252 SAtk / 96 Def / 162 SDef
Calm Nature
- Scald
- Flash Cannon
- Ice Beam
- Grass Knot
Physical Tank
Garchomp @ Garchompite
Ability: Sand Force
EVs: 252 Atk / 252 Def / 4 SDef
Adamant Nature
- Iron Head
- Sandstorm
- Dragon Claw
- Earthquake
