The title says it all. The nicknames are lame, but my Exeggutor was so cool in battle I had to name it Coolgutor and decided my team needed a theme for the nicknames. Anyway, rate away:

Alakazam (M) @ Leftovers ** Coolkazam
Trait: Synchronize
EVs: 4 HP / 252 Spd / 252 SAtk
Timid Nature (+Spd, -Atk)
- Encore
- Fire Punch
- Psychic
- Substitute

Switching in on Snorlax after a Curse is very cool imo.

Exeggutor (M) @ Leftovers ** Coolgutor
Trait: Chlorophyll
EVs: 4 HP / 116 Atk / 168 Def / 220 Spd
Naive Nature (+Spd, -SDef)
- Explosion
- Hidden Power [Ice]
- Leech Seed
- Wish

I was playing around with Exeggutor because I hated the sunnybeam set so I came up with this. Hidden Power Ice is nice for Mence and any Snorlax or Blissey that thinks it's cool switching in on this get an Explosion in the face. Wish is a cool support move if Donphan, Gyarados or Blissey want healing.

Donphan (M) @ Leftovers ** Coolphan
Trait: Sturdy
EVs: 252 HP / 96 Atk / 160 Def
Impish Nature (+Def, -SAtk)
- Earthquake
- Hidden Power [Rock]
- Rapid Spin
- Roar

This Donphan is too cool for Rest. It handles my phazing and spinning and does it quite well. I have both Earthquake and HP Rock because Donphan without HP Rock or Rock Slide doesn't like Aerodactyl and Tyranitar LOLs at a Donphan without Earthquake. Coolphan needs EV help, though. =\

Blissey (F) @ Leftovers ** Coolbliss
Trait: Natural Cure
EVs: 252 HP / 200 Def / 56 SAtk
Bold Nature (+Def, -Atk)
- Aromatherapy
- Ice Beam
- Softboiled
- Thunder Wave

This thing does a cool job keeping Zappy and the likes away and cripples Aerodactyl, Mence, Gengar and Gyarados that are too stupid to switch out.

Gyarados (M) @ Leftovers ** Cooldos
Trait: Intimidate
EVs: 148 HP / 192 Def / 92 Spd / 76 SDef
Adamant Nature (+Atk, -SAtk)
- Dragon Dance
- Earthquake
- Hidden Power [Flying]
- Taunt

A bit of EV help here, please.

Zapdos @ Leftovers ** Cooldos
Trait: Pressure
EVs: 188 HP / 136 Def / 108 SAtk / 76 SDef
Bold Nature (+Def, -Atk)
- Hidden Power [Grass]
- Rest
- Sleep Talk
- Thunderbolt

This one needs some help with the EVs too.

Fixes in bold.

Alakazam (M) @ Lum Berry ** Coolkazam
Trait: Synchronize
EVs: 4 HP / 252 Spd / 252 SAtk
Timid Nature (+Spd, -Atk)
- Encore
- Fire Punch
- Psychic
- Calm Mind

Don't use Sub on Zam it's kinda silly. Also Zam is a bit to frail for Lefties really, use Lum Berry.

Switching in on Snorlax after a Curse is very cool imo.

Exeggutor (M) @ Leftovers ** Coolgutor
Trait: Chlorophyll
EVs: 4 HP / 116 Atk / 168 Def / 220 Spd
Naive Nature (+Spd, -SDef)
- Explosion
- Hidden Power [Ice]
- Leech Seed
- Wish

Okay this is just silly. If it works use it I guess. O_o

Donphan (M) @ Choice Band ** Svo Hljótt
Trait: Sturdy
EVs: 252 HP / 96 Atk / 160 Def
Adamant Nature (+Atk, -SAtk)
- Earthquake
- Hidden Power
- Rapid Spin
- Rock Slide

Use this thing. You think it'd limit the utility of Rapid Spin but it really doesn't as Choice Band really makes up for it. You'll see if you try it and use it right.

Pretty Standard.

Ehh standard Tauntdos. I don't really know the EVs since I personally don't like him.

A bit of EV help here, please.

Zapdos @ Leftovers ** Cooldos
Trait: Pressure
EVs: 252 HP / 36 Spd / 100 SAtk / 120 SDef
Modest Nature (+SAtk, -Atk)
- Hidden Power [Grass]
- Rest
- Sleep Talk
- Thunderbolt

Bold Zappy lol.

This one needs some help with the EVs too.

No really any outstanding weaknesses I see, the sets, EVs and natures just needed some work.

Hope this helps.

It isn't silly, it's cool. =P People always tend to switch in their special walls against it which is when Exeggutor says hi. <3

Donphan (M) @ Choice Band ** Svo Hljótt
Trait: Sturdy
EVs: 252 HP / 96 Atk / 160 Def
Adamant Nature (+Atk, -SAtk)
- Earthquake
- Hidden Power [Bug]
- Rapid Spin
- Rock Slide

Seems cool enough. I suppose I'll give it a try even though it'll leave me without a phazer.

My Alakazam has had a lot of fun by blocking Thunder Waves with Substitute, but I see why Lum Berry and Calm Mind also have their uses. I'll try it out and see how it works. Thanks for the Zappy EVs by the way.

No, it really is silly.

I have a Sigur Rós team that doesn't have a phazer and it works fine.

Substitute Zam is bad though, seriously.

Oh and Alakazam is a bad lead, lead with zappy or w/e.

Although it isn't there, Salamence is a good lead too. As well as Metagross.

P.S. Can people stop saying "Whatever"

So far leading with Alakazam hasn't given me any real trouble, and I prefer bringing out Zappy after taking out the opponent's special wall which Alakazam tends to bring out, and since most people don't switch out when Coolgutor comes in against their special wall, they get owned by Explosion which is why Coolgutor is so cool. Zappy is much more more destructive when the opponent can't wall it. Zappy isn't cool when Regice or Blissey switch in on it.
Although it isn't there, Salamence is a good lead too. As well as Metagross.

P.S. Can people stop saying "Whatever"
That was completely irrelevant and didn't help me in any way whatsoever. -_- I'll lead with Alakazam as much as I damn well please, end of story. Besides, I don't really see what Mence and Metagross have to do with this because in case you didn't notice, I don't have either of them on my team and I have no intention to use either of them.
