whats up yall! so long time casual/competitive player here. i played gen6, 7 and back when ss ou was brand new but took a break before the dynamax ban and recently started playing again. i whipped up this team last night and its done pretty well so far. so yuhh lets get into it..
the team
Celebi @ Colbur Berry
Ability: Natural Cure
EVs: 252 SpA / 4 SpD / 252 Spe
Timid Nature
IVs: 0 Atk
- Nasty Plot
- Giga Drain
- Aura Sphere
- Psychic
the main member of the team. i wanted to build around celebi getting access to aura sphere and having solid all around bulk and offense. nasty plot lets it set up on weaker things like toad or clef, and giga drain and psychic for stab. aura sphere + colbur berry lets it be a pseudo check to dark types, sucker punch and knock off. max speed and sp. atk timid to hit hard and fast.
Gastrodon @ Leftovers
Ability: Storm Drain
EVs: 228 HP / 28 Def / 252 SpD
Calm Nature
IVs: 0 Atk
- Earth Power
- Recover
- Clear Smog
- Scald
my best fish counter. i like toad but im tired of him lol. it takes lots of hits and can dish out burns with some luck. and clear smog to stop it from being set up bait. it can also take on zeraora with grass knot which toad can't do. and makes a good core with arcanine.
Arcanine @ Heavy-Duty Boots
Ability: Intimidate
EVs: 252 HP / 252 Def / 4 SpD
Impish Nature

Timid Nature

this dude is great. huge hp lets him take tons of weaker attacks, the evs i'm using doesn't let toad's earth power break a sub.then max speed for ties with opposing kyurem, and the rest to special attack roost for longevity and pressure stalling. then there's ice/ground coverage which is nearly unresisted. solid solid pokemon.
