Interesting team. I don't really see anything wrong with the team. But i don't think you really need 2 defogers in 1 team, probably xerneas should have geomancy over defog. Marshadow left a message for you: "My signatute Spectral Thief... :(".
Yes so, umm, Spectral Thief would be better over Poltergeist, because poltergeist fails if the target doesn't hold an item, plus it has a shaky 80% accuracy if im not mistaken
No, Poltergeist is a hundred percent better. It has 90 percent accuracy, yes, but it's more powerful
Geomancy on a defensive mon? Interesting....

This team has some issues in move and item choices, let me try a hand to see what I can fix.

Blissey (F) @ Utility Umbrella
Ability: Natural Cure
EVs: 4 HP / 252 Def / 252 SpD
Calm Nature
IVs: 0 Atk
- Seismic Toss
- Confide
- Aromatherapy / Stealth Rock
- Soft-Boiled

The set is alright, though Leftovers isn't the best choice here. Since it's what you're relying for checking Kyogre, it should have Utility Umbrella so to ignore the rain based damage and also allow you to live Specs Water Spouts much better.

  • 252+ SpA Choice Specs Kyogre Water Spout (150 BP) vs. 4 HP / 252+ SpD Blissey in Rain: 393-463 (60.2 - 71%) -- guaranteed 2HKO

With Utility Umbrella:

  • 252+ SpA Choice Specs Kyogre Water Spout (150 BP) vs. 4 HP / 252+ SpD Blissey: 262-309 (40.1 - 47.3%) -- guaranteed 3HKO

Also, the EV spread isn't the best here. Use 4 HP / 252 Def / 252 SpD, for real it's much better on Blissey.

Zygarde @ Leftovers
Ability: Power Construct
EVs: 204 HP / 248 Def / 56 Spe
Impish Nature
- Haze
- Thousand Waves
- Rest
- Toxic

That set you're having is real whack. Without recovery, this Pokemon can't really check anything. I don't see the point of "GlareSub" which is just a waste of moveslot. If you're using a defensive set, use the above Waves trapper set which is great at trapping Defensive mons such as Tangrowth and weakening them for the wallbreakers.

Alternatively, here's an offensive DD set:

Zygarde @ Leftovers
Ability: Power Construct
EVs: 16 HP / 224 Atk / 36 Def / 232 Spe
Impish Nature
- Thousand Arrows
- Substitute
- Toxic
- Dragon Dance

The EV spread allow it to live a +2 Groudon's Precipice Blade, also not let its Substitute broken by defensive Sunsteel Strike in complete forme so to set-up on its passivity. ToxicSub is great as it weakens its checks in Lunala, Xerneas and non Jungle Healing Zarude. Rest of the set is pretty self explanatory.

Yveltal @ Heavy-Duty Boots
Ability: Dark Aura
EVs: 16 HP / 240 SpD / 252 Spe
Jolly Nature
- Foul Play / Knock Off
- Sucker Punch
- Defog
- Roost

The set is alright, though you appreciate Max Spe over SpD here. Nowadays, this spread is becoming more common because of the Sticky Webs match-up. The Spe means you're much more having ease to Defog, while Foul Play just destroys Groudon and you outspeed it before Rock Polish.

Xerneas --> Lunala

Lunala @ Heavy-Duty Boots
Ability: Shadow Shield
EVs: 252 HP / 4 Def / 252 Spe
Timid Nature
- Ice Beam
- Roost
- Will-O-Wisp
- Roar

Since we already have Blissey which can provide Aromatherapy support, I doubt there's a reason for Xerneas to be used alongside it. Apart from that, Xerneas does not help vs the Groudon MU, and it's also getting 2HKOed by Life Orb Zekrom. Also, it's not having reliable recovery unlike Lunala. So, to fix the Groudon and Zekrom weakness this Pokemon will come into rescue.

Marshadow is alright and cool.


Kyogre ---> Calyrex-Shadow

Calyrex-Shadow @ Choice Scarf
Ability: As One (Spectrier)
EVs: 252 SpA / 4 SpD / 252 Spe
Timid Nature
IVs: 0 Atk
- Trick
- Nasty Plot
- Astral Barrage
- Psyshock

Kyogre is a cool mon and destroys everything in its path, but what this team is missing out is speed control. None of the Pokemon here are faster than Eternatus or base 130s, so to fix them Calyrex-Shadow can prove helpful.

This is a Trick Nasty Plot set. As you trick your Scarf, its easier for it to set-up Nasty Plot vs defensive Pokemon and can be chipped much more easily. Psyshock is for the pink blobs.


Final Team

Hope this helps!

Zarude wut? Sorry I don't play Ubers and I haven't played AG in a while but did you really mean Zarude?
Yeah Zarude is nowadays common in Ubers (Jungle healing is also common...)

Thanks... Is this team really safe against dark types?
Interesting...
Wow... Zarude is common now.
This team is really getting wreaked by Yveltal...
I think you can go Eternatus > Blissey for the Yveltal MU. Zygarde beats physical Yveltal and Blissey + Yveltal is enough for special sets, so I don't know which set is giving problems. Can you describe it more?
How can Zygarde beat Physical Yveltal by Thousand Waves (you recommended that..), so I replaced it with arrows, now it's all good.
If you're using Thousand Arrows then change Toxic to Glare. Also, Coil is an option over Haze if you want that.
