Ok dont assume just because i lost to hex in first round that this team isnt to good.
It won all but two games not including hexs who as many know is an amazing batteler
Mewtwo @ Choice Specs
Trait: Pressure
EVs: 4 HP / 252 SAtk / 252 Spd
Timid Nature (+Spd, -Atk)
- Psystrike
- Aura Sphere
- Ice Beam
- Thunderbolt
Ok i wanted to make a sun team as at the time i had made no sucessful sun team and i was getting sick of seeing constant rain teams in Ubers and the few teams with groudon on also carried a kyogre.
But when making the team i decided i didnt want to lead with my main weather setter because a kyogre can still ohko it in sun.
So i decided on Deoxys-A but though it was sucessful it lacked def and shadow sneak girintina became more used as i went up the ranks on the po ladder (peaked 1196 after 1 hour), which got harder and harder with the ban of non ubers.
So i wanted to have a pokemon that can kill most common leads, or at least do more than half but at the same time have reasonable bulk.
So i decided on Mewtwo, it doesnt have major bulk but or bulk at all some may argue but it can take two shadow sneaks from girintina-O and it even took 89% from swords dance extreme speed arceus from pb.
I made the moveset so it can take most leads, specs give it that extra damage which isnt that expected on mewtwo untill they get kod.
Common leads and Uber pokemon-
These calculations are from here and these are not using evs because i forgot to put spatk evs on so these would do allot more damage.
Noobish darkrai 31 ivs hp- 109.6% - 129.5% aura sphere
Normal arceus 31 ivs hp 63.5% - 75.1% aura sphere
Groudon 252hp 31 ivs hp 95.6% - 112.6% ice beam
Girintina 252hp 31 ivs hp 50.8% - 59.9% ice beam
Girintina-O 31 ivs hp 67.6% - 79.8% ice beam
Thunderbolt does well over half damage to kyogre and can OHKO a manaphy and as for psystrike, well that just rapes.
But as for them statistics there some may not seem so impressive but it makes good revenge killing and will be the downfall of unexpected pokemon.
Pb Ninja and Hex have seen this mew two and it is very effective.
Groudon @ Leftovers
Trait: Drought
EVs: 252 HP / 4 Atk / 252 SDef
Careful Nature (+SDef, -SAtk)
- Fire Punch
- Stealth Rock
- Earthquake
- Thunder Wave
This guy has sereious bulk with this set, Just ask pb.
Mewtwo ice beam 252spatk 45% - 53.5% that is good as its a 2 hit ko with leftovers.
Most pokemon in Uber are special attack based so i decided to give it more spdef as its already got a base 140def.
Thunder wave cripples any pokemon switching in such as Kyogre and stealth rock breaks multiscale and trolls ho-oh.
Earthquake is normally a 2hit ko on most neutral pokemon and fire punch does a decent amount with sun support plus deals with ferrothorn and forretress.
Zekrom @ Choice Scarf
Trait: Teravolt
EVs: 4 HP / 252 Atk / 252 Spd
Jolly Nature (+Spd, -SAtk)
- Bolt Strike
- Volt Switch
- Dragon Claw
- Crunch
The best counter for Kyogre and boy this guy hits hard.
Choice scarf and jolly allows it to outrun nearly all Ubers pokemon appart from quiker scarfed pokemon.
Bolt strike i have been having very little luck with hitting 1/2 hits which is getting annoying considering its acc isnt 50.
But when it does hit it will do around half or more wether the pokemon resists it or not, excluding giritina though.
He is here to beet kyogre and to stop Lugia phazing my team which normally only around 30-40% from specs ice beam from specs two.
Choice scarf is defintly the best option as its 90 base speed is rather depressing allowing it to get trolled upon by rayquaza.
There are not many other decent sets used for zekrom and out of the ones ive tried this has been the most effective, the rest are for noobs/newcomers to uber.
Volt switch to clear up, if anyone else is confused, is for scouting and as hex put almost all ho-ohs carry substitute, but i have light screen.
It also scouts and finishs pokemon off such as kyogre when they are on low health, What happens if im locked in bolt strike with a acc hax as well as them sending in a pokemon to resist it allowing them to set up subs and boosts, it gives me controll on the game.
Ho-Oh @ Leftovers
Trait: Regenerator
EVs: 244 HP / 252 Atk / 4 Spd
Adamant Nature (+Atk, -SAtk)
- Sacred Fire
- Light Screen
- Brave Bird
- Recover
Ho-oh was in the team origionally but then i switched it to lugia for more bulk and then to Reshiram.
Reshiram was specs which would gave me 3 choiced pokemon, it wasnt helpfull but i still won the battles.
But then i battled hex and he used an offenceive one, which was a boss.
So in comes Ho-oH again which hasnt been tested yet but it has similar typing to reshiram just it leaves me with one less dragon type.
Ok dont hate this set its not been used, i havent even looked at any sets yet so dont hate the evs, nature and most importatly moveset.
Light screen provideds support for the team and makes groudon a whole lot harder to ko.
I was put off by 4x sr weakness when he was first in the team, i went for a set similar to lugias, which was a mistake waiting to happens, sure this pokemon can support but 130atk, stab brave bird and even more deadly stab sacred fire boosted by sun is defintly tempting.
Palkia @ Life Orb
Trait: Pressure
EVs: 252 SAtk / 252 Spd
Modest Nature (+SAtk, -Atk)
- Flamethrower
- Spacial Rend
- Ice Beam
- Thunderbolt
Ok Dialga or Palkia, i had used dialga on every ubers team.
But this was sun and though fire moves are not to common in ubers it is crippled easyly, one w.o.w and its as good as dead unless you running a special set, but the main part was it had an extra fire weakness.
Plus I wanted a change a pokemon with a goodmovepool and the ability to wall most rain teams.
So in came Palkia, it laughs at kyogre and rain teams in general plus has great offence and typing that allows it to wall most threats to my team.
Special rend is deadly and also has a good chance for a crit.
Thunderbolt kills manaphy and kyogre and ice beam covers about 1/2 of ubers.
Arceus @ Leftovers
Trait: Multitype
EVs: 252 HP / 96 Def / 160 SDef
Calm Nature (+SDef, -Atk)
- Thunderbolt
- Recover
- Toxic
- Ice Beam
Arceus a pokemon worthy of its title king of all pokemon 120 in both offensive stats isnt actually remarkable for ubers but when you add 120 in hp and defs it becoms very bulky allowing it to be able to set up for swords dance then extreme speed which is very powerfull.
But i wasnt enjoying the sd extreme speed set because i found it as noobish as a darkrai or blazkin.
So i went for a random set, i decided to make a walling set with the bolt beam combo.
This set is fabulous imo mainly because it is a mirror set of Porygon-2 just it has much better offence, hp and leftovers.
So the set may seem bad but look at how well porygon 2 does in UU, BL and OU now as i said before give it an extra boost in all stats.
