What format is this? wifi singles, doubles? showdown tier?
showdown tier. singles. since is Uber, if you have a better option for another pokemon, feel free to write down
In that case, this will probably be more helpful than a team rate. https://docs.google.com/document/d/1qYztMbBTY0qm4mFy1-66bafgsVQ2gkeErAO3QUghEBY/edit?usp=sharing
If you don't want to use legendary Pokemon, then I would recommend that you stop playing Ubers and play something like OU or BSS. The top threats in Ubers are Groudon and Necrozma, which are very difficult to deal with if you use only non-legendary Pokemon.
sumwun, i'm kinda strange on ubers. i don't want to use legends, and i forfeit against any player who use 1 or more legends. mythicals and ultra beasts are included on this too

feel free to comment "lol" or "lmao" etc.
Again, why are you playing Ubers then? His comment still stands that you should play a different metagame if you don't want to involve legendary Pokemon at all. Your team is legal for BSS, which is closer to your needs than Ubers is. You should play there instead.
And please, make your requirements very explicit in your original post. Nobody reads a thread like this and assumes you're doing something as ludicrous as banning legendaries in Ubers: instead they just assume you don't understand tiers.
kinda known, thanks. i might change it. but this team is to fight with my friends, and we have disallowed legends. but we might fight bss anyways. ( i decided playing it globally as well just cuz yes).

Your team is quite well rounded except the fact that if you used blazoned there would be 2 fire types. Lucario is a very attack based pokemon like blaziken however if you look at their stats, blaziken is more well rounded and based on your blaziken ev’s, faster too. I do have a replacement suggestion for volcanoa to even out your team (as you already have ribombee):
I would recommend a hydreigon if you are playing pokemon sun/moon. This pokemon can be obtained through island scan.
Heidragon has the ability levitate and is a dark/dragon type which would give you more coverage, it does take a while to fully evolve but it is worth it.

Item:live orb/focus band
Moves:
-dragon pulse
-roost
-tri attack/charge beam (tri attack has a 20% chance of freezing, burning and paralysing opponents, charge beam has a 70% chance of raising Sp.Atk
-assurance ( island scan deino has the egg move assurance, it doubles damage if the uses has been attacked in the same turn, additionally if this pokemon holds a life orb it counts as being attacked) if the pokemon is holding focus band and is left at 1 hp, it can guarantee a knockout.

If you are using ultra sun/moon I would recommend an alliance Raichu, a psychic and electric type.
Ability:surge surfer (doubles speed on electric terrain)
Item: terrain extender
Moves:
-electric terrain
-psychic
-volt switch (allowance Raichu isn’t very defensive, but it is fast this move allows it to switch out first if it’s close to fainting and bring in a heavier hitter)
-thunderbolt

These two pokemon can cover a lot of your teams weaknesses, so far your team is great and I think blaziken is the way to go, however if you use blaziken it would be safer to replace volcarona.
Hope this helped.

Why are you recommending Hydreigon when Yveltal is better? Why are you recommending Raichu when dusk mane Necrozma is better?
sumwun i disallowed legends on that team, so that pokemon are basically banned. sorry
talking about your awnser, thanks. i will use raichu.

Legendaries are over-rated (not discouraging you or anyone else just a personal opinion) yveltal isn’t obtainable in-game until you can go through the ultra wormholes and hydreigon can be trained to have better stats iv’s etc. and is obtainable when you are on melemele island. Also note that I recommended hydreigon for pokemon moon/sun which means yveltal isn’t obtainable in-game at all and not everyone has pokemon bank or pokemon x and y.
Dusk mane necrozma is a fair point however, pokemon that are trained from the beginning can have better ev’s, iv’s and moves. But thankyou, this has given me something to consider, however is still think in pokemon moon/sun hydreigon is the way to go.
