Yeah tbh, it's actually pretty broken in OU, the best counters it has is zapdos and gyarados, checks mean you're willing to sac a mon to arceus... I mean lucario in order to get them safely in, should be an ubers analysis instead since after khan is gone I'm sure mega luke will follow, crawdaunt...

yet defensive bulky zapdos also takes on aegislash.... plus both SD/NP Lucario if it's equipped with a LO like I mentioned, so no mega luke cannot easily get around zapdos, and what exactly does sheer force lando-i do to zapdos? Since Psychic, Focus Miss etc don't even come close to a good...

I know it does, but zapdos has the ability to counter both SD and NP lucario with the same ev spread, yet it needs the LO to kill special luke who doesn't lose -1/-1 from CC.

oh nvm then, I'm so used to putting uneven hp on defoggers now I had overlooked that :P

Well you are aware that def bulky zapdos is better vs lucario then sp def lucario, 248, 252, 8 filler zapdos with bold survives hits from both ends of the spectrum, while sp def zapdos dies to close combat. +2 252 Atk Adaptability Mega Lucario Close Combat vs. 248 HP / 0 Def Zapdos: 324-382...

Sorry I must of overlooked that when I read through, for some unknown reason I assumed when I was typing that you was running max hp not sp atk, despite reading otherwise, derp. Yet I would now suggest the filler should be 4 hp for the sr reason I mentioned before as it gives latias an odd...

Yeah this team is gonna get torn apart by mega luke and genesects inevitable ban to ubers, if I was you I would start to make another team though this one is good you're not gonna be able to ladder with it for much longer.

For a defog latias I would suggest 248hp as it gives it an extra sr switch in and a slash roost/recover with healing wish as it lets latias survive longer in tougher battles, especially with the LO recoil on top. Also Heatran, despite losing ghost and dark resistances makes a perfect partner...

EDIT: Nvm, forgot to take note of gooey goodra dropping scizors speed But there is a bug surrounding Keldeo's speed atm, it seems to outspeed tier 110 fully invested mons (without sticky web or icy wind). I'm unsure if its a incorrect variable calculation leading to keldeo having an insane...

Checks & Counters ######## - Talonflame - doesn't counter, doesn't even check as it rarely if ever runs enough speed + jolly to outspeed mega luke and is ko'd fairly easily especially if rocks are up by both sets if it does, let alone brave bird doesn't ohko and it will be dead before it can...

Fyi mega's don't treat knock off as a 65 bp move, with adaptability its 65bp on a 2x resist and 130bp on everything it hits for neutral damage, not including item damage, that being said I was running some calcs... counters that I found atm are Keldeo, Mega Venusaur. Though they're both pretty...

I use Rain/Rest Goodra, works great as another status absorber for my team and is a perfect switch into Rotom-w if you suspect a hydro pump, wow etc. I use a bulky stall set up so I can tank special hits and some physical ones 252 hp, 252 sp def, 4 sp atk with a calm nature and a damp rock and...

If you're going to use AV on ferro arguably payback gives better damage since its pretty much guaranteed tht ferro will move last so payback is 100 bp, leech seed can weaken down his counters/checks, pin missile does of course keep the common grass switch ins at bay but iirc these are all gen5...

Since talonflame is so popular right now it might be worth a mention that an unaware bold/relaxed 252 hp/252 def clefable is 3hko by talonflame so it can come in and check talonflame if you slash in thunderbolt in the set since both flamethrower and moonblast are nve against talon. This would...

I believe rocky helmet is worth a slash on the defensive build of zapdos, it gives zapdos the ability to take hits, roost of the dmg and still hurt the opponent. Also, in the future when it can learn heat wave, the def version of zapdos checks physical variations of mega lucario that use ice...

sorry this is a late reply but ditto can't guarantee that it will be able to take on aegislash, for starters stance change only works on aegislash so ditto will copy the ability but will be stuck in either attack mode or defense mode (even if it attacks it will be forever in defense mode) with...

future sight is worth a slash as combined with u turn it can work as a somewhat offensive pivot/lure, can lure your opponent into switching into a dark type pokemon which you can be ready to check/kill on the switch in or force them to take a pseudo mega kangaskhan hit from a more offensive pokemon.

Same issue, same time, server looks like it's crashed again as well as deleting my team which was backed up on my computer that is also deleted....

Doesn't scolipede check mega gengar somewhat because of its resistances, access to speed boost and pursuit/EQ?

Hmmm haven't really had any problems with it so far and I have been tweaking it around for a while yet my spread is more aimed at the in between of your two suggestions. 252 HP, 76 Def, 180 SpDef. That's pretty much right in between both sides, relaxed nature ofc
