Umbrella because umbreon is op if you give it the right moves. Dark pulse can kill ghost types,quick attack can garuntee hits,double edge to sweep if I need to,and if you’re hyper voiced,you’dead.

Oh my god this team needs so much improvement I don't even know where to start
Running three z-moves on a team generally isn’t great, as it wastes 2 item slots. Also Rayquaza isn’t weak to electric so Wacan Berry isn’t good for it. Umbreon isn’t a good attacker either.
"umbreon is op if you give it the right moves"

Lol
Offensive Lugia is horrible
Fly is horrible
Umbreon is horrible
Thunderbolt is horrible on Lugia
And it’s my team so I can change it if I want
Why are you being so unresponsive to criticism?
It’s not critical,it’s just rate my team
And that’s what we’re doing.
bruh give Mega Rayquaza a life orb to nuke everything

Best answer

This will need some improvement.
Umbreon
Umbreon is an unviable choice in NDAG when yveltal and Tyranitar exist. Offensive umbreon is even more of an…odd choice. So how about Yveltal?
Yveltal
Yveltal @ Life Orb
Ability: Dark Aura
EVs: 4 Atk / 252 SpA / 252 Spe
Hasty Nature
- Oblivion Wing
- Dark Pulse
- Heat Wave
- Sucker Punch
One of the best dynamaxers in the game, Yveltal packs a punch. Oblivion Wing can heal it, and in Dynamax, becomes Max Airstream. Dark Pulse is strong STAB boosted by Dark Aura, and a Max Darkness with dark aura boasts a whopping 170 power, not including Life Orb and STAB. Heat Wave OHKOs Zacian when it’s max flare, granted you have a speed boost from Airstream so Behemoth Blade doesn’t take you out. Sucker Punch is awesome priority, and can take out specially bulky threats like Chansey and Blissey during Dynamax.
Lugia
Offensive Lugia is horrible, it’s offensive stats are too low to do anything useful. Your team lacks one of the best attackers in the metagame, Calyrex-Shadow, so let’s go with that.
Calyrex
Calyrex-Shadow @ Buginium Z
Ability: As One (Spectrier)
EVs: 252 SpA / 4 SpD / 252 Spe
Timid Nature
IVs: 0 Atk
- Nasty Plot
- Pollen Puff
- Astral Barrage
- Baton Pass
After a nasty plot, it OHKOs Darkceus, does huge damage to Defensive Yveltal (guaranteed OHKO if it has atleast 28% done to it), and OHKOs Tyranitar. It can baton pass SpA boosts out of bad situations, and in to other special attackers I’ll get to later, as well as Yveltal.
Incineroar
Incineroar is unviable. It’s stats, movepool, ability, and matchup against the meta isn’t good enough to justify using it. A great physical attacker would be Zacian-Crowned.
Zacian
Zacian-Crowned @ Rusted Sword
Ability: Intrepid Sword
EVs: 4 HP / 252 Atk / 252 Spe
Adamant Nature
- Behemoth Blade
- Wild Charge
- Close Combat
- Swords Dance
Smogon’s set. Between Caly-S and Zacian-C, bulky teams are going to have a hard time. Behemoth blade is hard hitting STAB, Close Combat is fantastic coverage, Wild Charge hits threats such as Waterceus, Ho-Oh, and Primal Kyogre, and Swords Dance paired with Close Combat can break past Necrozma-Dusk Mane.

Rayquaza
Rayquaza is good, but this set isn’t. A better mixed set for Mega Rayquaza would be:
Rayquaza
Rayquaza-Mega @ Life Orb
Ability: Air Lock
EVs: 252 Atk / 4 SpA / 252 Spe
Lonely Nature
- Dragon Ascent
- V-create
- Draco Meteor
- Extreme Speed
Smogon’s set. Draco Meteor lets it nuke Zygarde, Arceus, Pdon, and more, Dragon Ascent is an amazingly strong STAB, V-Create is incredibly powerful and pressures steels like Necrozma-Dusk, and Extreme Speed is useful priority.
Ho-Oh
Offensive Ho-Oh is unviable. However, it’s spectacular at pivoting and Defogging.
Ho-oh
Ho-Oh @ Heavy-Duty Boots
Ability: Regenerator
EVs: 248 HP / 208 Def / 52 SpD
Impish Nature
- Sacred Fire
- Toxic
- Defog
- Whirlwind
Smogon’s set. Sacred Fire deals decent damage with STAB, and the 50% burn chance is awesome. Toxic helps against bulky mons such as support Arceus and Zygarde. Defog gets rid of hazards. Whirlwind messes up annoying Baton Pass strategies and setup pokemon.
Greninja
Ash-Greninja is frail, and doesn’t hit hard enough to justify it’s use. So we have three options. Kyogre, Primal Kyogre, and Waterceus
Kyogre
Kyogre @ Life Orb
Ability: Drizzle
EVs: 4 Def / 252 SpA / 252 Spe
Modest Nature
- Origin Pulse
- Ice Beam
- Calm Mind
- Hidden Power Flying
Smogon’s Dynamax Sweeper Kyogre. Calm Mind lets it break past bulky opponents, HP flying boosts speed in Dynamax, origin pulse is strong STAB, and Ice Beam is great coverage.
Kyogre
Kyogre-Primal @ Blue Orb
Ability: Drizzle
EVs: 252 SpA / 4 HP / 252 Spe
Timid Nature
- Origin Pulse
- Ice Beam
- Water Spout
- Thunder
Awesome wallbreaker. Primal Kyogre’s water spout has nigh unmatched raw power, origin pulse has some great power too, and thunder and ice beam are coverage.
Arceus
Arceus-Water @ Splash Plate
Ability: Multitype
EVs: 252 HP / 240 Def / 16 Spe
Bold Nature
- Ice Beam
- Toxic
- Refresh
- Recover
Smogon’s set. Ice Beam hits thing such as Zygarde, and allows it to be a nice Mega Rayquaza check. Toxic is good for bulky opponents and is great for Primal Groudon. Refresh and Recover heal off status and damage.

Hope this helps!

I think Swords Dance Zacian should be Jolly hmmm.
No, because zacian is usually a wallbreaker. You want the maximum power possible on this thing, and adamant ensures that.
It’s speedy enough as it is, and Adamant’s speed doesn’t make it lose any key speed ties.
Yeah, exactly.
Shadow calyrex doesn’t need buginium z
Why not? Is killing Tyranitar and Darkceus not helpful?
well i dont see darkceus but for me marshadow is a pain in the ass
Once you get to higher ELO, you see more balance teams, usually including one or more of the popular Arceus forms. Among these is Darkceus. Tyranitar is common on stall, often agreed on to be the most annoying playstyle for it being incredibly hard to break past. Any team without Darkceus or Tyranitar often has Yveltal, a highly versatile Pokémon that tops the viability charts, and a big reason for that is Calyrex-S. All these Pokémon are rather common, and one of the main reasons for that is for checking Caly-S, so why not have a way to break past it’s best checks?

Umbreon

Offensive Darkinium Z with 3 Normal type attacks? Really? Umbreon has 65 Attack and 60 Special Attack. Normal type moves suck without the STAB boost, especially Quick Attack. Umbreon is not at all good in AG even as a defensive Pokemon. Yveltal's 131 Attack and 131 Special Attack are twice that of Umbreon's pathetic offensive stats, and its offensive movepool is actually good. You can always go defensive as well. All of these traits make Yveltal the best Pokemon in the metagame.


Yveltal @ Life Orb
Ability: Dark Aura
EVs: 4 Atk / 252 SpA / 252 Spe
Mild Nature
- Dark Pulse
- Oblivion Wing
- Heat Wave
- Sucker Punch

Yveltal @ Heavy-Duty Boots
Ability: Dark Aura
EVs: 252 HP / 4 Def / 252 SpD
Careful / Calm Nature
- Snarl / Knock Off
- U-turn
- Roost
- Defog

Lugia

That Lugia set is...extremely strange. It's not like you'll be needing Lugia in the first place. Lugia only fits on hardcore stall teams. This is not a stall team. Calyrex-Shadow is much, much better than Lugia offensively (165 special attack vs 90 Special Attack). It has so much versatility, power, an incredible STAB move, and is just overall immensely threatening. There are several sets it can use, but my personal favorite is QuickPass.


Calyrex-Shadow @ Ghostium Z
Ability: As One (Spectrier)
EVs: 4 Def / 252 SpA / 252 Spe
Timid Nature
- Astral Barrage
- Nasty Plot
- Baton Pass
- Substitute

Incineroar

Incineroar is terrible. You have a total of 3 Z-moves on this team (I haven't the slightest clue as to why this is the case). Something you should note is that except for rare cases like Mega Rayquaza and Yveltal which appreciate Life Orb's extra power boost, you should always run Heavy-Duty Boots on Pokemon that are weak to Stealth Rock. You're better off replacing Incineroar with Primal Groudon, who has a nice typing, a Stealth Rock neutrality, and more power, speed, and bulk. However, your team will appreciate Ho-oh's support more. Why not Zacian-Crowned?


Zacian-Crowned @ Rusted Sword
Ability: Intrepid Sword
EVs: 4 HP / 252 Atk / 252 Spe
Adamant Nature
- Behemoth Blade
- Close Combat
- Wild Charge
- Swords Dance / Assurance

Rayquaza

Why Haban Berry? Mega Rayquaza is already resistant to Electric during the strong winds summoned by Delta Stream. I see absolutely no point in running Haban Berry over Life Orb. Mega Ray can either run a Dragon Dance set that demolishes unprepared teams or breaks a massive hole, or a mixed set which lures in common counters to the fully physical set (like Zygarde) and destroys them with Draco Meteor.


Rayquaza-Mega @ Life Orb
Ability: Delta Stream
EVs: 252 Atk / 4 SpD / 252 Spe
Adamant Nature
- Dragon Ascent
- Extreme Speed
- Dragon Dance
- Earthquake

Rayquaza-Mega @ Life Orb
Ability: Delta Stream

Lonely Nature

- V-create
- Draco Meteor

Ho-oh

You can keep Ho-oh but the set is...let's just say it's very suboptimal and likely won't get you anywhere. Heavy-Duty Boots, once again, are very important. Unlike Mega Ray and offensive Yveltal, who take 25% from Stealth Rocks, Ho-oh takes a whopping 50%. There is no excuse to run anything other than Boots on a Pokemon that is 4x weak to Rock. I really don't understand why you're running Ancient Power and Scorching Sands. Air Slash is also pretty bad. Ho-oh likes to focus on defense more, as it has a lot of nice attributes like a 50% burn move, Regenerator, and Defog.


Ho-oh @ Heavy-Duty Boots
Ability: Regenerator
EVs: 248 HP / 208 Def / 52 SpD
Impish Nature
- Sacred Fire
- Toxic
- Defog
- Whirlwind / Roost

Ash Greninja

Once again, Quick Attack sucks (you have both STAB Shuriken and Quick Attack?) and running 3 Z-move users is also bad. If you're thinking Primal Kyogre, it isn't very good. Arceus-Water, however, is a viable bulky Water type, since it can check many common Pokemon like Arceus-Ground, Necrozma-Dusk Mane, and defensive Zygarde and Primal Groudon. Your team lacks a reliable Zacian-Crowned check (notice how I said reliable. Primal Groudon resists Behemoth Blade but is 2HKOed by Close Combat after Stealth Rock and has no recovery outside of Rest). Necrozma-Dusk Mane is the best Zacian-C check. It has reliable recovery in Moonlight/Morning Sun, a Stealth Rock resistance, and the freedom of running whatever item it wants. It can run Leftovers for more recovery, Rocky Helmet to punish Zacian's moves and to chip it until it is in Sunsteel Strike / Earthquake KO range, and Heavy-Duty Boots to foil Assurance Zacian-C with Stealth Rock + Spikes up, which has popped up almost solely because of Dusk Mane's prominence.


Necrozma-Dusk Mane @ Leftovers / Rocky Helmet / Heavy-Duty Boots
Ability: Prism Armor
EVs: 252 HP / 252 Def / 4 SpD
Impish Nature
- Sunsteel Strike
- Morning Sun / Moonlight
- Stealth Rock
- Knock Off / Earthquake

Hyper voice has a base power of 90
I don't know what you mean, but the move is still extremely weak when used by Umbreon.
ho-oh can be a physical nuke spamming brave bird
Ho-Oh isn’t a great attacker-it’s attack stat is nice, but it can’t be backed up by an item unless you want to risk not using boots, and for that you’d need heavy hazard control.
I’m sorry this team sucks I was bad and I’m a little bit better
