SM OU [+1600] My first OU Team - Mega Medicham + Tyranitar

Team Preview
:medicham-mega: :tyranitar: :greninja-ash: :landorus-therian: :zapdos: :slowbro:



Move Sets:
:sm/medicham-mega:
lil papaya (Medicham) (F) @ Medichamite
Ability: Pure Power
Shiny: Yes
EVs: 252 Atk / 4 SpD / 252 Spe
Jolly Nature
- Fake Out
- Ice Punch
- High Jump Kick
- Zen Headbutt


Is the main reason for this team. High jump kick and zen headbutt for Powerful STAB attacks, ice punch for solid coverage and fake out for the priority which help patch up its only decent Speed stat and allow it to pick off faster offensive Pokemon such as Greninja, Tapu Koko, and Gengar.

:sm/tyranitar:
Tyranitar @ Assault Vest
Ability: Sand Stream
EVs: 224 HP / 32 Atk / 252 SpD
Careful Nature
- Rock Slide
- Crunch
- Pursuit
- Earthquake


Tyranitar helps Mega Medicham catch fasters pokemon like Alakazam, Lati@s, Gengar or Blacephalon with pursuit. His careful nature + Assault Vest + Sand stream make it a great especial defensive wall, able to entry at Focus Blast of Alakazam, Hydro-pump of greninja or Moonblast of Tapu-lele.

:sm/greninja-ash:
Greninja @ Choice Specs
Ability: Battle Bond
EVs: 252 SpA / 4 SpD / 252 Spe
Timid Nature
- Surf
- Ice Beam
- Water Shuriken
- Dark Pulse


Greninja with choice specs can do a lot of damage during the game and help Mega Medicham to sweep in the late game removing some of the threats of Mega Medi. Ice beam instead spikes because gives more coverage for doing damage to other grass type counters.

:sm/landorus-therian:
Landorus-Therian @ Leftovers
Ability: Intimidate
EVs: 252 HP / 112 Def / 144 Spe
Impish Nature
- Stealth Rock
- Earthquake
- Knock Off
- U-turn


Landorus takes care of place the rocks. Is a pivot to help get frailer teammates onto the field safely. Additionally, while its bulk and typing alongside Intimidate allow Landorus-T to directly switch in on opposing Pokemon like Mega Mawile and Landorus-T.


:sm/zapdos:
Zapdos @ Leftovers
Ability: Pressure
EVs: 248 HP / 240 Def / 20 Spe
Bold Nature
IVs: 0 Atk
- Volt Switch
- Roost
- Heat Wave
- Defog


Zapdos is the defogger of the team and also a counter of pokemon like scarf Kartana, mega gyarados and scizor who can sweep this team. Volt switch/dischargue can be equally good but i prefer volt switch for earn advantage at the switches.



:sm/slowbro:
Slowbro @ Leftovers
Ability: Regenerator
EVs: 252 HP / 252 Def / 4 SpA
Bold Nature
- Scald
- Psyshock
- Ice Beam
- Slack Off


Is the best counter of pokemon like Mega-Medicham, Hawlucha, Mega-Lopunny or Mega Swampert, he can take any damage of these pokemon and attack they with his STAB attacks. Regenerator + slack off makes Slowbro a hard wall to defeat.

Hi DCuca, welcome to Smogon! I'm locking your RMT for the time being as the forum rules require that you provide at least 3 lines of descriptions for each Pokemon to explain their roles. Please read the rules carefully and take a look at Team Showcase to see the level of detail we require. PM me with updated descriptions and I'll be happy to unlock this.
