(Kyurem X Infernape)
-This is my first RMT but I think this team is pretty Fire Check It Out-
-Background-
I wanted to build a Bulky Offense Team in the UU Tier and use a Dragon, Steel Core while doing so. Initially I thought of using Mega Sceptile and Lucario, but neither of them seemed to fit the bid. So I continued to look at other Dragon Types in the Tier and was left with Kyurem from there it was pretty obvious that Metagross would be it's best partner. From there the other members of the team kind "fell into place". With Blastoise controlling Hazards and Infernape checking Sabyleye and faster threats.-The Team-
Paarthurnax (Kyurem) @ Choice Specs
Ability: Pressure
Shiny: Yes
EVs: 28 HP / 236 SpA / 244 Spe
Timid Nature
IVs: 0 Atk
- Draco Meteor
- Ice Beam
- Earth Power
- Flash Cannon
The main Reason I decided to make Kyurem the "Star" of the Team is because of its massive wall breaking capabilities. Kyurem completely covers it's weaknesses besides Fighting with this moveset and can hit incredibly hard. Aside from its abilities to wall break Kyurem can also take some damage. It can live a Choice Scarfed Flare Blitz from Darmanitan, Choice Banded Knock Off From Krookadile and a Dragon Pulse from Mega Sceptile and O'KO each Pokemon listed above.

AMD (Metagross) @ Assault Vest
Ability: Clear Body
EVs: 216 HP / 140 Atk / 36 Def / 116 SpD
Adamant Nature
- Meteor Mash
- Zen Headbutt
- Bullet Punch
- Earthquake
Next on the Team is Metagross. During the Team Building process I struggled to find a good partner for Kyurem. I tried to fit Mega Aggron, Cobalion, and Lucario, but no pokemon seemed to fit as good as Metagross did. Not only does he check Sylveon, a major threat to Kyurem he can O'KO most Fighting Types in the Tier. Such as Machamp, Toxicroak, Lucario, Cobalion, Heracross, and depending on the spread Conkeldur which can all switch in on Kyurem depending on the move and easily kill it. With Assualtvest Metagross can easily switch into Sylveon and other Special wall breakers (Mega-Sceptile, Mega Ampharos, Tornadus) and O'KO it with Meteor Mash.
Oscar (Blastoise-Mega) (M) @ Blastoisinite
Ability: Mega Launcher
EVs: 164 HP / 252 SpA / 92 Spe
Modest Nature
IVs: 0 Atk
- Scald
- Ice Beam
- Dark Pulse
- Rapid Spin
Mega Blastoise is probably my favorite Mega Evolution. Not only does it do it's job as being an Offensive Tank almost perfectly it looks like a bad ass while doing it. Mega Blastoise immediately pressures any Fire, Flying, Ground, and Rock Type it sees by merely having high Special Attack and Water STAB. In addition Mega Blastoise can shut down any Physically Offensive Threat by burning it. Lastly Mega Blastoise possess the move rapid Spin which mean your Team has a reliable way to clear hazards. Threats for M-Blastoise include Grass and Electric Types, although blastoise does get Ice Beam. This is usually not enough to O'KO most Grass Types.
Bandit (Krookodile) (M) @ Choice Scarf
Ability: Moxie
EVs: 252 Atk / 4 SpD / 252 Spe
Jolly Nature
- Earthquake
- Knock Off
- Stone Edge
- Super Power
Enough has been said about the viability of Krookodile in the recent months so I won't waste much time. Krookodile is the best Moxie Sweeper in the Tier and is one of the best Mid-Game Wall Breakers and Late Game Sweepers in the entire ORAS Meta. If used properly Krookodile can mean the difference between winning or loosing a match. For this specific team Krookodile checks Psychic Types such as Espeon and Reuniclus and can check most Electric Types in the Tier that threaten Mega-Blastoise.
Scout (Whimsicott) (F) @ Leftovers
Ability: Prankster
Shiny: Yes
EVs: 240 HP / 140 Def / 128 Spe
Bold Nature
IVs: 0 Atk
- Giga Drain
- Moonblast
- Cotton Guard
- Encore
Although Whimsicott may not come off as the most Defensive Pokemon it can certainly wall Physical Threats such as Mega-Absol, Conkeldur, Haxorus, Krookodile, Sharpedo, and Cloyster. Whimsicott has access to the Ability prankster which means it can easily trap treats into their Set-Up moves by using Encore and get a kill or force a Switch. In addition Whimsicott is a Fairy Type which means it's immune to Dragon Types and resists Fighting Types, providing more support for Kyurem and Krookodile. Cotton Guard can be switched for various moves like Tailwind, U-Turn,Leech-Seed, Knock Off, or Psychic. Lastly Whimsicott can be used to check bulky Water Types like Suicune and Vaporeon.
Mojo (Infernape) (M) @ Life Orb
Ability: Iron Fist
EVs: 252 Atk / 4 Def / 252 Spe
Jolly Nature
- Close Combat
- Flare Blitz
- Thunder Punch
- Swords Dance
Infernape is the premier Set-Up 'Mon on the team. I decided to go with a full Physical Set to maximize Sword Dance's usefulness. Infernape definitely suffers from "Four Move Syndrome" but i believe this set fits the team best. In addition to being a Set-Up Sweeper Infernape can be used to quickly revenge kill opposing threats and pressure the opposing team Mid to Late Game.Ability: Prankster
Shiny: Yes
