    The one one Smogon is probably your best bet anyway.

    You could always try some variations, and we can help you with them here. :3
    What exactly do you want it to do that Smogon's standard doesn't provide?

    Ev's don't really seem to be a problem, but I'd like some variations on the movesets.
    SMogon currently says U-Turn, Reflect/Light Screen, Psy Headbutt, Wish

    I want to make a sun-based single battle uber team that will be effective in this harsh environment of choice scarfed kyogres and palkias. If you can help me out with this, it will be much appreciated. If it is impossible to make a good sun team, then anything will work really, I'm just having a real hard time winning any uber matches.

    P.S.-It will be for shoddy and wifi, so if you'd like to put arceus in the team, have a replacement suggestion ready for shoddy.

    This is probably the most noobish question asked here but...

    Can you recommend a good team to beat Diamond?
    I haven't gotten my first badge yet.Movesets would be appreciated too.
    (I picked Chimchar)
    I want things found in the game.I'm a bit iffy about the GTS cuz I want legit pokemon.
    If this has already been asked,just direct me to the right page.

    Thanks in advance.

    There's no 'good team' to beat Diamond.
    As long as your Pokémon are at the same level range than the Gym you're fighting, you won't have any problems no mather how sucky are the Pokémon you use.

    Those are specific tiers. Ubers are composed of pokemon that are far too strong, to put it bluntly. Or, they may have an unfair ability, like Wobbufet.

    OU is the usual tier that most go to. They are composed of pokemon too strong for UU, yet aren't quite broken like Ubers.

    UU are pokes that aren't good enough to cut OU. They are either outclassed, or aren't strong enough to hold a permenant place.

    NU=Neverused. Simple as that.

    Feel free to mix the lower tiers. Remember, a higher tier cannot go into a lower one, but a lower can be mixed into higher (uber cannot go in OU game, but OU can go into Uber. OU can't go into UU games, but UU pokes are allowed in an OU match).

    More info on today's metagame is here:

    Nah, Dragon Pulse, gets STAB, has better coverage.

    Ughh, well im kinda stuck. I havent used Tangrowth in AGES, however, I DO want it to counter both gyarados AND Garchomp (Which Ice Fang and Fire Fang do ass to it respectively).

    Onto the sets, i have two in mind



    Option 1 : -

    Tangrowth@Leftovers
    252 HP / 252 DEF / 6 SP.DEF
    Relaxed Nature
    - Power Whip
    - Hidden power Ice
    - Rest
    - Sleep Talk

    OR

    Option 2 : -

    Tangrowth@Leftovers
    252 HP / 252 DEF / 6 SP.DEF
    Relaxed Nature
    - Power Whip
    - Hidden power Ice
    - Stun Spore / Sleep powder / Knock off
    - Leech Seed

    Opinions would be much appreciated plox =D.


    NOTE : Im keeping Power Whip, Grass Knot does ass to vappy etc and Power Whip does more to T-Tar and Gyarados and generally out damages its special options =p.

    I'd also go with the second set. I just think Leech Seed is an amazing attack and Tangrowth an amazing user of it.

    Also, you don't really need Hidden Power Ice to break Garchomp. But it could surprise some.

    Where should I put my Scizor's EVs? I wanted him to be somewhat of a wall, having only one weakness, but I don't know if it can work like that. Since It's a trade evolution I got few chances to make one.

    How can I get the most use out of a Scizor?

    Scizor is not better as a wall, but as a bulky sweeper.

    I personally like the Swords Dance Technician set;
    Scizor @ Life Orb
    232 HP / 252 Atk / 24 Def
    Technician
    Adamant
    - Swords Dance
    - Quick Attack
    - Roost
    - X-Scissor / Iron Head / Brick Break

    A Technician Quick Attack really hurts after a couple Sword Dances. :3

    There are a few other possible sets too, like Baton Passing. But that's my favourite.
