So I wanted to make a gimmicky yet still usable team based around Sandstorm, but I have a feeling I'm doing it wrong...here's what I have so far:
Hippowdon@Lefties
Impish
6 HP
252 Def
252 Spec Def
Stealth Rock
Crunch
Slack Off
Earthquake
Comments: Starter for SR and an all around tank.
Gliscor@Bright Powder
Sand Veil
Adamant
106 HP
152 Attack
252 Def
Aerial Ace
Ice Fang
Roost
U-turn
Comments: Scouter and anti-fighting. Bright Powder + Sand Veil = lots of evasion and Aerial Ace and Ice fang let him do damage while U-Turn is handy for a quick escape and damage against Psychics.
Cacuturne@Brightpowder
Naive
6 HP
252 Attack
252 Speed
Sucker Punch
Substitute
Leech Seed
Seed Bomb
Comments: I've been rocked by this build before (although I'm not sure on the EVs), Brightpowder and Sand Veil help it avoid damage enough to set up even if it's outspeeded, once it does it can sweep fairly well.
Empoleon
Unsure of my setup.
I really do need a water type on the team, and with the Steel type making it resistant against the Sandstorm, this one fits the bill, however I'm unsure on how to build it. Right now I have it with Brick Break, Ice Beam, and 252 Def EVs but nothing else. It's going to be my anti-dragon sweeper and brick breaker, but I'm kind of unsure on how to finish him up.
Claydol@Lefties
Calm
252 HP
252 Spec Def
6 Def
Rapid Spin
Light Screen
Reflect (?)
Explode
Commentary: My special sponge and rapid spinner...I like light screen as it covers most of my other guys having lax special defense, but I'm considering replacing Reflect with another offensive move so I don't get out-stalled, but I'm not really sure what...another Earthquake isn't really what I need.
My last slot is up in the air, I'm thinking Tyranitar for the 2nd Sand Stream and the sweeper factor, but I'm unsure which build to give him. Considering I'm Gyarados weak, I also considered Magnezone, but again unsure how to build him.
I'm still pretty new to this team building thing, especially with the EVs, so thanks in advance for the help.
Think this one got lost in the shuffle.
Eh, it's the nature of having one thread for multiple purposes.Mine did too. Twice.
You get used to it after a while.
Is Medicham terrible with FAKE OUT?
Or is there some FAKE OUT set to option one with?
I have a Jolly one, just finished, at:

Can Gardevoir get Icy Wind from XD? If so, can I get an Icy Wind considerate moveset for such a Gardevoir please?
I edited it a little more... How does it look?OK, I'm still thinking this out.. How does this team sound? I dont know about natures, ev's yet, and some moves are missing.

this isn't the forum to ask for ingame teams
I have a scizor, and gave it the ev spread.
252 Atk, 252 Speed, 4 HP
it has technician,
does anyone know a good moveset for this?
also, i fineshed ev training my tangrowth
it has 252 hp, 252 def, 28 speed and its nature is impish.
any good movesets? thanks.
Oh no! Adulterers! Not only can Tangrowth not pull off a Restalking set with 50 Speed and 50 Special Defense, but Restalking is an easily exploited tactic anyway! The only thing it does is shut down Pokemon that plan on putting your other roster members to sleep. The only thing Restalking does with Tangrowth is provoke a switchout into Salamence/Roserade/Altaria/Raichu/Pichu/Palkia/Ditto @ Choice Specs. (Did I mention an embarrassing special defense stat anywhere?)Tangrowth:@ Leftovers
252 hp, 224 def, 28 speed
Impish
Leaf guard
-Rest
-Sleep Talk
-Power Whip
-Earthquake
I don't know much about Tangrowth, so I'm guessing this.
You can't have a legal spread of 252, 252, 28. ;o
