This team was made on Umbreon(because I like Umbreon as a pokemon and thought it would be a good wall and toxic spreader for some fun with an Umbreon+Gholdengo core type team)and I would like it with Umbreon staying forgive me if this is against rules
Moonlight (Umbreon) (M) @ Heavy-Duty Boots
Ability: Synchronize
Shiny: Yes
Tera Type: Poison
EVs: 252 HP / 216 Def / 40 SpD
Calm Nature
IVs: 0 Atk
- Foul Play
- Wish
- Protect
- Toxic
Standard Wish set of any of you guys played Randoms, but if you didn’t here’s how it works: This set is based off of Umbreon’s ability to effectively stall out everything with Wish+Protect+Toxic and natural bulk. Foul Play is a great Taunt-proof option because of Roaring Moon being a good Taunt user, supposedly shutting down Umbreon. Foul Play hits very hard(because Moon is Booster Attack and can probably get a DDance in anyways) so that’s that. Tera Poison deals with Tusk and Valiant a bit better(Tusk first turn tho) while being immune to Toxic. Nature, EV’s, and IV’s just aim to be bulkier, because there isn’t another good stat to invest in. Synchronize is objectively better, because the twave pult doing my job is better than never getting flinched by something.
Gholdengo @ Choice Scarf
Ability: Good as Gold
Shiny: Yes
Tera Type: Psychic
EVs: 252 SpA / 4 SpD / 252 Spe
Modest Nature
IVs: 0 Atk
- Make It Rain
- Hex
- Psyshock
- Trick
Scarf Gholdengo gives very valuable speed control and complements Umbreon’s Toxic as well as Zapdos Static+TWave and Glimmora’s hazards by a very powerful Hex. Make it Rain is just a great signature move in general, no explanations. In a similar fashion, Psyshock is useful for 3HKOing Blissey and doing a whole lot of damage to Clod(haven’t done calcs yet). Trick also cripples stall, getting something like Leftovers from a Dozo for your Scarf. EV’s and Nature give me 401 SpA and 400 Spe(with scarf).
Rillaboom (F) @ Choice Band
Ability: Grassy Surge
Shiny: Yes
Tera Type: Grass
EVs: 252 HP / 252 Atk / 4 Def
Adamant Nature
- Grassy Glide
- Wood Hammer
- U-turn
- Knock Off
Very standard band monkey. Glide is strong priority, Wood Hammer is kamakaze, U-Turn is switching in, Knock Off removes HDB from stall teams, EV’s and Nature make the monkey strong and a bit bulky, rest should be obvious.
Glimmora (F) @ Focus Sash
Ability: Toxic Debris
Shiny: Yes
Tera Type: Ghost
EVs: 252 HP / 4 SpA / 252 Spe
Timid Nature
IVs: 0 Atk
- Spikes
- Stealth Rock
- Toxic
- Sludge Wave
Hazard stacker. Spikes+SR+Toxic Debris gives me a whole lot of room to revenge kill with Gholdengo. Toxic kills off the setup sweeper turn one / opposing hazard setter. Sludge Wave is another Taunt-Proof way to live. The Nature, EV’s, and IV’s is being fast and a bit tanky. Tera Ghost spin blocks.
Great Tusk @ Assault Vest
Ability: Protosynthesis
Tera Type: Ghost
EVs: 4 HP / 252 Atk / 252 Spe
Jolly Nature
- Rapid Spin
- Close Combat
- Headlong Rush
- Ice Spinner
Assault Vest eats a few hits and could be used interchangeably with HDB. Rapid Spin is my only form of removal, CC and Headlong are just way too powerful to deny(CC breaking past Blissey, Headlong being Headlong, and both types being tied for having 5 types weak to it). Ice Spinner is good coverage and an on/off switch for Grassy Terrain. EV’s aim to be offensive. Tera Ghost is Spinblock.
Zapdos @ Heavy-Duty Boots
Ability: Static
Shiny: Yes
Tera Type: Ghost
EVs: 248 HP / 168 Def / 92 SpD
Relaxed Nature
IVs: 0 Atk, 0 Spe
- Volt Switch
- Roost
- Hurricane
- Thunder Wave
Zapdos aims to paralyze a whole lot of things, so Gholdengo doesn’t have to worry about most things outspeeding and/or living a Make it Rain. TWave is for the times when Static doesn’t activate. Hurricane is because this Zapdos set gets walled by any ground type. Roost is one of the two ways Zapdos recovers(the other being Umbreon Wish into hard swap, which isn’t that reliable). Volt Switch is a slow pivot(I guess, it’s the second slowest mon at 187). EV’s, IV’s, Nature, and Tera Type make it really defensive.
This is my first time making an OU post, I did ladder to 1301 before making this post and want to get to at least 1500 with this team. Feel free to flame me in the comments(to an extent) or tell me that I can’t ask for Umbreon to stay.
Edit: Umbreon probably won’t stay
