SM OU New OU team around level 1400

[Albert Halliwel]

Introduction​

I made a new team to focus around using Jirachi, I focused on covering her weaknesses, after my previous teams were lost with the death of my old laptop, I could just do with some fine tuninig suggestions.

Teambuilding Process​

Hide

Okay so this is the pokemon I wanted to build a team around, I've tried hundreds of different formations, then recently tried him as the smogon first suggested set and I've really enjoyed it. Jirachi, is my lead normally, one of two special walls and wish pasher for the team. I have also had her sweep occasionally lol. She's particularly good to switch into the pink blobs, clefable and chansey

The second special wall and primary physical wall, and the defogger, I also use the aura as a substitute for having a full cleric running heal bell

I wanted him as a scar user to reliably outspeed fast mega's particularly Mega Buneary and mega Alakazam. Also earth type to absorb electric types. :)

Second special wall on the team, gave him fire punch to help with ferrothorn, skarmort and Tangrowth that want to switch in, otherwise he is just extremely strong from what I've found, especially stacking a wish passer onto his special bulk

The only true sweeper on the team and first special attacker, ice beam and thunderbolt give amazing coverage, the Z-move is to nab an easy to kill for the SP ATK boost, once you've got the speed boost up, he's also helpfully bulky.

Needed a mega, needed more special attackers, was struggling with rain teams, was struggling with grass types and water earth types (gastrodon literally sits in on the entire rest of the team)
