What purpose would you say Medicham and Donphan fill? Both are really sub-par Pokemon who I can't see doing anything but dragging down the team.

Well I was just thinking it would be fun to use them in this weird way I have manged to put in some way with them but if you say they are weighting down the team than what do you recommend I replace them with I would use anything you can think of there are no bad ideas with me.

See its difficult for me to suggest things because I'm not entirely sure what your plan was in doing these guys, but I'll plop a few suggestions here:
If you are looking for a powerful physical Fighting-type, Terrakion is always a safe bet. He doesn't have (good) priority but has a decent movepool that can be worked around, although I imagine with Megagross running around he's not as effective as he used to be. If you need a bulky AVer with priority, Azumarill I think is still really good. Lando-T can set up rocks and gives a defensive backbone to your team in place of Donphan. I'm not really sure how the meta has shaped after the Greninja ban so someone else (Spark or MMS maybe?) could probably provide better suggestions.

I see with you are saying I will give the defensive Lando-T even if I use a Metagross I would not like it I agree with you a second time he is not as great this gen I may use the mega but even then I may not use it.

I'd ask MMS since I haven't played OU extensively since the Aegislash ban. But I still know teambuilding tricks, and can confirm Donphan is pretty redundant with Excadrill already having rapid spin. Landorus-T sounds like a solid replacement.

Taunt is not very good because Lando-T is pretty slow. I'd replace it with either Stone Edge or...well Stone Edge.

Any particular reason why Mega Beedrill is running Toxic Spikes? Its too frail to use it most of the time and it's much better off just attacking on a free turn
Also hi

Oh I didn't even notice that.
Definitely replace that with Protect, ASAP. Beedrill is really frail.

I kind of like it everyone uses protect I was thinking when I scary something out I can get up the toxic spikes to get a little more damage to get the KO with Beedrill but that can be flexible.

You could also use Knock Off to screw with ghosts

I suggest a SubCM Keldeo over Medicham for a plethora of reasons. First off, your team was originally rather crippled by burn, and Keldeo can deal with a burn decently well. Secondly, Keldeo has a pretty good speed tier, unlike Medicham, while it retains decent bulk. Third, having a water type is pretty important synergy-wise, as waters beat a lot of common things like Landorus-Therian. Next, I suggest replacing Donphan with Sp. Def Hippowdon, as Hippowdon can set up SR and tanks hits from both sides of the spectrum excellently. It also gets reliable recovery, to let it stick around. I suggest Ice Fang here to beat Gliscor, which has become almost omnipresent lately, but Stone Edge and Toxic are also prefectly viable replacements. Another great thing about Hippodown is that it sets up Sand, which... ...helps Excadrill, which I suggest should receive Sand Rush to make it a speed demon in sand. An adamant nature can be used here, as Sand Rush makes Excadrill very fast without Jolly. Rock Slide is probably better than Swords Dance because Exca hits rather hard unboosted, and honestly it just can't afford to lose out on coverage on fliers like Talonflame and Thundurus that love to ruin it's EQ-spamming day. Ferrothorn looks mostly fine, but I suggest that spread over a straight physically defensive one to give Ferrothorn some more all-around bulk, as two mixed walls compliment each other better than a mixed wall and a phys def wall. Spikes over Thunder Wave here is mostly preference, but I think it could be nice to abuse the fact that you dont use Defog on this team. Finally I suggest that, as many others have, you replace Toxic Spikes with Protect on M-Beedrill, as Beedrill is too frail to afford spending a turn at it's base speed. Hope I helped! :] |
