[@sonicfan8490]

Opinions on all Pokemon here: Mega Mence honestly is a great Flying Mega and it has a decent set. Although 2 Flying moves is a bit weird imo. I would've replaced Facade with Fire Fang personally. Don't have anything worthwhile for Lugia as I got no experience with stalling, but at least you're using the fundamentals of stalling on this set. Skarmory also has a set that is used often, but Celesteela could've been considered as well thanks to Beast Boost and good defenses all around. Even though Crobat is a Physical attacker with decent Physical coverage like Steel Wing and Leech Life, this Special set could kick butt in the right situations. The Pelipper is almost as good as it can get, but i would've invested the EVs on HP or Special Defense as most Electric moves are Special anyway. Togekiss could've had Flamethrower instead as Fire Blast has the same Burn rate as Flamethrower but at least it has a way stronger option. I know these sets aren't meant to be godlike sets that should be used in the meta or anything, but these are just personally nitpicks and opinions on the team

I wouldn't have put Pelliper on the team myself. Yes it's great support on a rain team, but setting up rain is just free 100% accurate Thunder for your opponent on a whole team that's weak to electric moves. I would use Gliscor instead. Yes I know that's a second mon with 4x weakness to ice, but I feel like the rest of the team covers that well enough. Having that ground type wall is just excellent electric coverage, and it's just a good wall in general.

In my first playthough though Alpha Sapphire, i actually used a Pelliper just because it was so tanky. Heck, it got me far in the Elite Four and was a hurricane beast.

[@M_Dutch97]

As a bird Pokémon trainer I have to correct you on Skarmory. The next set works much better: Ability: Sturdy EVs: 252 HP / 252 Def / 4 Spe Impish Nature (+Def, -SAtk) Item: Custap Berry -Stealth Rock -Spikes -Whirlwind -Iron Head Investing more than 4 EVs in speed won't improve it that much. Give them to HP instead and the remaining 4 to speed. Sturdy combined with a custap berry will let it set up at least stealth rock and spikes. After that you can either choose to torture the opponent with whirlwind or commit suicide with iron head because Skarmory won't be doing much after it has set up stealth rock and spikes. There are many great Flying Pokémon. For example Swellow with its guts ability and amazing speed can be very deadly on the battlefield. Same for Staraptor which is an absolute beast! Talonflame and Hawlucha are both great additions as well. Also I think you should've kept Salamance for the dragon team and use Mega Pidgeot instead.

[@madsgrams2069]

I would make mega-Salamance a mixed-attacker and give it a flame-thrower, because of those nasty Steel types that tend to have ridiculously high Defense, which means that a stab Flying attack won't be as effective as a 2x damage Fire attack...and those annoying Ice types as well. I would also add Ho-Oh to this team, because...Ho-Oh.

[@ised-5239]

Flying type is super-effective against: -Grass: Birds and bats often land on trees or their parts for both food (like berry eating birds and mango eating bats) and habitat (like bird's nest and bats on a tree). -Bug: Birds are common predators for tiny insects that eat them alive. -Fighting: Aerial attacks of any air combatants approaching the enemy can easily crush the enemy until injured and KO, such as martial artists using flying kicks in karate/kungfu matches, and superheroes who dive to the enemy and crash the enemy with the head.

I don't get how 85-95% accuracy for a move can be risky, you're still hitting a vast majority of the time. I've never really had an issue with Thunder, only something like Zap Cannon has caused me frustration. I don't count the one hit KO moves, given they only work on weaker Pokemon

[@dellstudio10]

Alec DeVaney That’s true while playing through the story. I have more fun using the more powerful but less accurate versions of moves like thunderbolt/thunder. But in competitive play thunder is much to inconsistent to rely on when one miss can cost you the match. That’s why in competition you rarely see the more powerful version of a move unless it’s accuracy is boosted through the weather, items, effects or abilities. In those circumstances it would make sense to use something like thunder in the rain because it’s more powerful than thunderbolt and 100% accurate while raining.

Nothing you're 6/0ed that's why I would have chosen Gliscor or Landorus somewhere and maybe Aerodactyl to deal with Ice.
