XY OU (Pre-Pokebank) Trevenant Lead

This is an OU team that I want to use to deliver punishment to all ranges of threats, and it does just that, but I need my team to be stronger. And help would be greatly appreciated.

Trevenant (M) @ Sitrus Berry
Trait: Harvest
EVs: 252 HP / 96 Atk / 160 SDef
Adamant Nature (+Atk, -SAtk)
- Will-O-Wisp
- Horn Leech
- Phantom Force
- Substitute

My lead, Trevenant is designed to come in, and stay in, with harvest to abuse sitrus berry, and offensive stats to hit hard. Will-O-Wisp, to burn any incoming foe, and weaken them for more powerful pokes later on. Horn Leech, to deal damage as well as heal even more. Phantom force to hit an enemy hard. Substitute to keep Trevenant in longer, and to allow it to abuse sitrus berry even more.



Goodra (F) @ Assault Vest
Trait: Gooey
EVs: 252 HP / 4 Atk / 252 SAtk
Sassy Nature (+SDef, -Spd)
- Dragon Pulse
- Fire Blast
- Power Whip
- Sludge Wave

Goodra is designed to capitalize on damage caused by Trevenant, with assault vest to increase SpAtk by 50%, Sassy nature, for more SDef walling, Gooey, to cut a faster enemy down to size. Dragon Pulse hits hard to slay an opposing dragon, Fire Blast hits hard, and taking advantage of Assault vest, can easily ravage any pokemon, even though it is not STAB. Power Whip can take out any Gyarados in it's way, and gives it more coverage. Sludge Wave gives Goodra coverage against an enemy Fairy, and may poison an enemy to boot.



Aegislash (F) @ Leftovers
Trait: Stance Change
EVs: 252 HP / 252 Atk
Adamant Nature (+Atk, -SAtk)
- King's Shield
- Iron Head
- Sacred Sword
- Autotomize

Aegislash is a pokemon with vast potential, here it can abuse stance change, and depending on the pokemon, can set up autotomize easily, and revert to shield forme to take a hit from enemies. King's Shield allows Aegislash to revert to shield forme, and lower enemy attack. Iron head hits Fairies, tyranitar, etc. hard. Sacred Sword gives Aegislash more offensive potential, and autotomize allows Aegislash to raise it's speed to ridiculous levels when given an opening.



Absol (M) @ Absolite
Trait: Justified
EVs: 252 Atk / 4 SAtk / 252 Spd
Adamant Nature (+Atk, -SAtk)
- Swords Dance
- Sucker Punch
- Dark Pulse
- Fire Blast

Enter Mega Absol. With a base Atk of 150, Absol can sucker punch almost anyone into oblivion. Justified gives it even more power if someone is fool enough to use dark moves. Swords Dance lets Absol become stronger still. Sucker Punch can let Absol ravage an enemy, even with it's relatively mediocre speed. Dark Pulse is a powerful STAB move that Absol can use against slower enemies. Fire Blast serves as more coverage for Absol.


Accelgor (F) @ Life Orb
Trait: Sticky Hold
EVs: 4 HP / 252 SAtk / 252 Spd
Timid Nature (+Spd, -Atk)
- Hidden Power [Ice]
- Bug Buzz
- Energy Ball
- Focus Blast

I like this Accelgor set very much. I use it on all my teams, and it punishes an enemy with it's wide coverage. Sticky hold allows it to keep it's life orb, delivering more punishment. Timid gives it yet more speed, to the point where only priority or boosts can outrun it. Ice hidden power hits when an enemy doesn't expect it. Bug Buzz gives accelgor powerful STAB. Energy Ball is yet more coverage, and Focus Blast hits hard as well.



Gardevoir (M) @ Gardevoirite
Trait: Synchronize
EVs: 252 SAtk / 4 SDef / 252 Spd
Timid Nature (+Spd, -Atk)
- Calm Mind
- Focus Blast
- Moonblast
- Shadow Ball

Gardevoir changed dramatically this generation, and adaptation has been difficult. Synchronize punishes any status abusers, Timid helps with Gardevoir's speed, and Mega Evolution is a nice touch. Calm mind helps raise Gardevoir's stats, Focus blast gives great coverage, Moonblast takes care of opposing dragons and dark types nicely, and Shadow ball is for coverage.
