Doubles team assistance?

I am currently breeding a team for use in ORAS WiFi Doubles based around Mega Heracross, and I was looking for a Tailwind user and a bulky Wish-passing Fairy. Togekiss was the first thing that popped into my mind. Later on in the team, however, I added Talonflame, and noticed the SR weakness they would bring to the team. I was wondering if the wiser choice of a Tailwind user would be Talonflame, then switch my bulky Wish-passing Fairy to Sylveon. If anyone could make suggestions, I would be very grateful. (The rest of my team is in the comments).

EDIT: I’m not able to breed Wish to Sylveon, so it will be a cleric instead.

Let’s go through each team member in depth.

Looks just about solid. One thing that might be cool, though, is to take out Bullet Seed for Swords Dance. What with Greninja’s Mat Block, and something I will include later, Heracross will get a myriad of opportunities to set up.

I advise using HP investment, or even Defense, rather than Special Defense. T-tar already gets a SpD boost from sand, and it increases your overall bulk rather than just one stat, but then again, that’s just how I roll.Keep in mind that T-tar’s sandstorm will chip away at every one of your team members' health, so you might want to switch that to Unnerve. Oh, and what item would you be using if you ran Stealth Rock on T-tar? Cuz obviously you can’t use it when you’re running AV. Rocky Helmet might work.

One huge, huge, advantage Togekiss has over other Tailwinders is access to Follow Me. Follow Me is what I was referring to in the analysis for Mega Heracross, as drawing attacks to Togekiss will allow M-Hera to set up. So the changes I recommend are Wish -> Roost and Protect -> Follow Me.

Solid. Only possible change is Dark Pulse -> Scald / Hydro Pump.

I know you’re probably going to disagree with this, but I saygo for Defensive Talonflame.Talonflame gets Will-O-Wisp, Tailwind, and Quick Guard. Tailwind boosts Speed which is just good, and Quick Guard protects the next Pokemon from Bullet Punch, opposing Brave Birds, etc. If you don’t want another Tailwinder, you might run Bulk Up instead of Tailwind. With obligatory Brave Bird, I think it might actually work well!

Offensive Sylveon time!With Tailwind boosting your speed and Quick Guard protecting you from Bullet Punch, Sylveon can run a good offensive set!Sylveon @ Choice Specs / Life OrbAbility: PixilateModest Nature252 SpA / 252 Spe / 4 HP-Hyper Voice-Shadow Ball-Hidden Power Ground/Wish/Helping Hand-Psyshock

Hidden Power Ground is preferred in that moveslot, but I understand you’re breeding it so it may be difficult to get the right Hidden Power.

Why? Even though it adds to your SR weakness (sorry), it can set up Tailwind before being Taunted. Roost is there to cover that up. Also, I noticed that you run LO + BB and FB which is pretty extreme recoil. There are somethings even Roost can’t fix.This is the Tailwind support set I use and it works well:Talonflame @ No itemEVs: 252 Atk/252 Spd/4 HpNature: JollyAbility: Gale Wings-Tailwind-Roost-Acrobatics-Flare BlitzAs you see, the point here is minimal recoil. And also, 2 fairies on one team means a huge Steel weakness and Bisharp is pretty common. Why not a ground or Fire type?Infernape @ Life Orb/Choice Band/Focus SashEVs: 252 Atk/252 Spd/4 HpNature: AdamantAbility: Iron Fist-Fire Punch-Thunder Punch-Close Combat/Mach punch-Acrobatics/EarthquakeAcrobatics because Knock Off is one of the most common moves on Bisharp.ORFlygonEVs: 252 Atk/252 Spd/4 HpNature: AdamantAbility: Levitate-Superpower/Steel Wing-Dragon Claw-Earthquake-Fire PunchThe sole point of this set is to counter steel and fire types.

TyranitarSeems fine. SR over Ice Punch. And instead of 252 Hp, make it 252 Atk/252 Hp/4 Def.

HeracrossThis thing is beast under Tailwind. Just use Arm Thrust instead of Close Combat.

GreninjaSeems really good. But Mat Block? And rebreed for a Hasty nature one.

SylveonNo recovery, no life. Sylveon can’t do much without recovery.

Hope this helps!-It’s a secret!
