Well, you only have two walls, both of which are hammered by fire attacks. Fighting and Rock attacks also are potential killers. Basically, stuff like Tyranitar, Infernape, Moltres, and Machamp really give you a rough time, as does Electivire.

Roserade is a pretty meh cleric, Celebi is much better. Still, I would work to have something more reliable than Heatran to stop the fire weakness (since EQ or a fighting attack bury it).

What is it with you and walls?

@Ambient: 2 Choice Suite users? Have fun switching!

I don't know, maybe because without them you're going to get 6-0ed by every sweeper in the game? 2 walls is never enough, even if you're running SkarmBliss or any wall duo. Heck, 4 walls sometimes can't wall everything. The metagame is WAY too fast-paced and the sweepers too powerful to not have at least 3 primarily defensive pokemon.

Uh huh. So whats your team like? 3 Walls, 1 Physical Sweeper, 1 Special Sweeper and 1 Mixed Sweeper?
Nonetheless lets stop spamming this thread.

Actually my team is ALL walls. I play stall ball, and it does work.

Anyways, that fire weakness is still absurd, so I would invest in a bulky water to help you our, and they won't crumble to Ground and fighting attacks like Heatran would. Vaporeon, Suicune, Swampert, Milotic...whatever.

Considering you need a rock and fighting resist, you could use Swampert as a bulky water and throw in something like Spiritomb, Weezing, or Gliscor to help out.

So, Swampert > Heatran, and what should I replace for a Gliscor/Weezing or Spiritomb?

Roaserade doesn't really help you at all, so I would probably replace that for Spiritomb (that will also help Regice).

Also, I would have Gengar run a Life Orb set, since all of your sweepers being choice sweepers isn't going to work in your favor.

How is this for a Spiritomb set then?

Spiritomb @ Leftovers

(Thought I'd invest more in Def than Smogon said,as Smogon said none)

My lord, you have the biggest Hp Ground/Flamethrower/Safeguard/Roost Moltres weakness ive ever seen O_o


Definitely needs not so many things that die to fire, balance out your types better. Bulky waters are your friends aswell, so add one.

edit : Ok you added it =p
