Good Natures

Note: Not sure if this is in the right place... Go ahead and move this if it is.

What are good natures for the following Pokemon?

Empoleon
Torterra
Infernape
Staraptor
Raichu

There may be a sixth later, but I'm still trying to figure out which Pokemon that'll be. :P

 

[LugiaFreak]

Would anybody be able to supply me with a good Psycho Shift Latias and a good ScarfRotom-h set?

 

[The Hero Without a Name]

Blissey
Bold 252 HP / 252 Def / 4 SAtk
~ Seismic Toss
~ Ice Beam
~ Thunder Wave
~ Softboiled

No... just... no. Bold Bliss is terrible, she can't even wall special attackers (and if she can't do that, then she's dead weight on your team).
Blissey @ Leftovers
Calm
Natural Cure
252 Def/80 SpA/176 SpD
Seismic Toss
Softboiled
Flamethrower
Toxic

This Blissey's much better; she can actually take special hits from many powerful special attackers and can spread status around with Toxic.

 

[Veristical Blaze]

Weavile
Metagross
Gallade
Magmortar
Flygon

[+Poochyena+]

I NEED HELP ASAP!!!!!!!!!

O.K,
So I'm trying to make a very great team out of a:
Male Mightyena,
Male gardevoir,
Male Blaziken
Genderless Claydol

Now, I really want a good movesets, abilities, natures and stats for each. PLEASE NO HM MOVES!!!!!!

So, what would the best moves, stats, abilities and natures for these Pokemon?

Moves
Well in-game you don't need moves like Stealth Rock or Taunt or anything, so maybe go for: A stab move for each poke, (EG: Crunch for Mightyena, Psychic for Gardevoir, Sky Uppercut and Flamethrower/Fire Blast for Blaziken, EQ for Claydol definitely (EQ is a must in-game and competitively)). Then give it some nice type coverage moves and potentially a stat-boosting move for each poke (EG: Howl maybe for Mightyena, Calm Mind for Gardevoir. Smogon is a great database which will tell you the base stats of the pokemon you're looking for, so I suggest picking moves that are, say Physical for Mightyena, Special for Gardevoir.

Stats
It's impossible to choose what stats your pokemon are going to have, unless you know how to IV breed, and EV train, which, looking from your post, you don't know how to do.

Natures
Potentially Jolly for Mightyena, definitely Modest/Timid for Gardevoir. Here, natures are explained here. Pick a nature that goes well with the type of moves you're going to use, or some sort of Defensive/Speed increasing nature.

Abilities
Heh, this section is easy.
Blaziken=Blaze
Mightyena=Intimidate
Gardevoir=Synchronize (I guess Trace would be okay if you can't find a Ralts with Sync)
Claydol=Levitate


Hope this helps.

BTW, before i even start is this competitive; fun team; OU, UU, NU, 3rd or 4th gen? You really need to put in some detail, because i need a base to work off.

Oh, NVM

 

[Tinhead Bruce]

Yeah, is this for in-game or competitive, because my post is pointless if it's for competitive battling.

Competitively speaking...what's the point of even playing the actual game, then? I mean, if Shoddy just lets you generate the perfect Pokemon, what's the point in digging to catch/breed a Pokemon with the perfect natures and level it up and EV train it? I know, I know, wi-fi, but if Shoddy is so much easier... :P

Don't get me wrong, I'm all for playing the game to play the game. I honestly wish Pokemon had a better multiplayer system, both in terms of accessibility and balance. The OU sorta bothers me; it seems like there's no strategy or personality. All-out-offensive seems to be the best/only way to go, and in terms of choice..."Use these Pokemon on this list or you won't have a chance in hell" looks like the rule :(

I'm not trolling, I swear! D: Just...observing. I've recently become interested in playing competitively but the more research I do the less fun it seems o_O

I know I haven't really asked a question, but you seem like kind enough folk >_> I'm more looking for reassurance and other opinions than answers XD

wrong. This thread is STRICTLY for competitive battling sets. (sorry for minimodding)

I don't blame , I'm playing Platinum and I'm trying to make a team in the OU tier for Competitive Battling and its a totally pain, I already had start over Platinum once this past weekend because I accidentally made my Infernape get rid of Nasty Plot to learn Rock Smash and I found out that it couldn't be remembered so I had to start all over, yea the whole EV, Competitive Battling thing, seems to have sort-of sucked alittle bit of the fun out of the game
