  • Seismitoad is outclassed by a lot of things in OU. It's only good in rain teams. Gastrodon is the better alternative for its ability to check Water Pokemon:
    -Earthquake/Earth Power
    -Scald
    -Toxic/Ice Beam
    -Recover
    Nature: Relaxed/Bold
    EVs: 252 HP/252 Def/4 SDef
    Item: Leftovers
    Ability: Storm Drain

    or
    -Surf
    -Earth Power
    -Ice Beam
    -Recover
    Nature: Modest
    EVs: 172 HP/84 Def/252 SAtk
    Item: Wise Glasses/Mystic Water/Splash Plate
    Ability: Storm Drain

    If you're using a Quiet nature on Reuniclus, use Trick Room:
    -Trick Room
    -Psychic/Psyshock
    -Shadow Ball
    -Focus Blast/Hidden Power (Fire)
    Nature: Quiet
    EVs: 192 HP/64 Def/252 SAtk
    Item: Life Orb/Leftovers
    Ability: Magic Guard

    Fly is too easily played around on Braviary. Brave Bird is the better option:
    -Return
    -Brave Bird
    -Superpower
    -U-turn
    Nature: Adamant/Jolly
    EVs: 4 HP/252 Atk/252 Spe
    Item: Choice Band/Choice Scarf
    Ability: Defiant

    Eelektross isn't worth using, IMO, despite its good move pool, because of its bad Speed. Wash Rotom is the better fit:
    -Volt Switch
    -Hydro Pump
    -Will-o-Wisp
    -Pain Split/Hidden Power (Ice)
    Nature: Modest
    EVs: 232 HP/56 SAtk/220 Spe
    Item: Leftovers

    or
    -Volt Switch
    -Hydro Pump
    -Thunder Wave/Will-o-Wisp
    -Pain Split
    Nature: Calm
    EVs: 248 HP/28 SAtk/232 SDef
    Item: Leftovers

    or
    -Volt Switch
    -Hydro Pump
    -Hidden Power (Ice)
    -Trick/Thunderbolt
    Nature: Timid
    EVs: 4 HP/252 SAtk/252 Spe
    Item: Choice Specs/Choice Scarf

    Gallade isn't that good in OU because of its middling Speed; Lucario is the better option over it:
    -Swords Dance
    -Close Combat
    -ExtremeSpeed
    -Crunch/Ice Punch/Shadow Claw/Bullet Punch
    Nature: Adamant/Jolly
    EVs: 4 HP/252 Atk/252 Spe
    Item: Life Orb
