B/W Team Advice.

I'm new to this generation. As in, Ruby and Sapphire were my last ones. So I'm real unfamiliar with the new beasts.

I'd like to get some advice from some of you experts. Also, if you could critique and comment on my team - constructive feedback please, feel free to say I suck, just follow it up with an explanation as to why I suck.

Serperior - 36


Excadrill - 35


Boldore - 31


Krokorok - 35


Darmanitan - 35


Joltik - 27

ok man n you dnt suck evryone goes through a learning curve at some point or another and can you put the nature up because they can tell us what the best stat would be for your team members and allow us help you a bit better (i mean me and other people who will offer the expertise)

ye for starters id think about investin in a water or flying type (mainly water to cover fire, ground, rock and also so you could learn ice type moves to hit dragon types which you may find difficult facing in the game without) and someone to cover fighting type or a move to cover them, some good water type i would suggest are seismitoad (water/ ground i think), jellicent (water/ghost) swanna (water/flying).

also i would remove cut and strenght off your pokemon because you can gt a HM slave for those and plus you could teach moves that would help you out in your game to your main team plus you dnt exactly need HMs to get through the story.

as for your starter it learns some good attacks later on and also learns coil which raise it attack, defense and accuracy on level which would help you, as for your boldore if you plan on keeping on your team i would evolve it which you can do by trading to make it as strong as you can i would suggest if you plan on keeping it, damanitan and krokorok are excellent physical attackers which i would stick with them both. (also krokorok can learn dragon claw if you can obtain it, btim nt entirley sure if it can now as a krokorok or wen it evolves again jus to help you cover against dragon types)

and if you plan on keepin joltik it is a fast pokemon with decent electrical attacks and good offensive stats. also i would consider removing excadrill and boldore because you have krokorok who is a ground type and is all you need, and replace with a water pokemon and any type of your choice

i hpe i have helped inanyway bt if stil nt sure i PM me n il try and help you mre

also if ive missed anything out could someone explain for me please n sorry if it sounds noobish lol im tried

Thanks guys, seriously, I've been trying to get responses for advice for two days and no one online has answered except you two haha.

I should update you on my team, they've grown since I posted this. Also on their natures for devilace. Then I'll get right those suggestions and dump some moves.

Serperior - 37 - Quirky Nature

Same moveset. Getting rid of Cut shortly, I had noticed no hindrance to the gameplay without HMs - unlike older generations.

Excadrill - 40 - Jolly Nature

Earthquake
X-Scissor
Dig (getting rid of it)
Slash

Boldore - 35 - Mild Nature

Strength
Rock Slide
Power Gem
Bulldoze

Krookodile - 40 - Modest Nature

Foul Play
Crunch
Dig (also getting rid of)
Bulldoze

Darmanitan - 38 - Timid Nature

Thrash
Flare Blitz
Hammer Arm
Fire Punch

I got rid of Joltik like five minutes after posting this. And I'm highly considering dropping Boldore altogether. I find myself not thrilled about training him, and I won't be able to trade him any time soon since I live on campus with bad internet - no world trading - and no one has the game nearby.

So basically I would just have those four monsters. Any huge suggestions for the other two open spots? Also, since I'm an in-game player, focused more on the Pokedex than battling, I go for cool looking and powerful ones. Think along the lines of the four I really like in my team. Thanks guys! :)
