Teams like this are why I love my Feraligatr. Once that Vaporeon is out, Gyarados and Feraligatr could own your team.

I was thinking about having Flare Blitz on Arcanine, but wasn't sure if there were any other options. And choice band sounds like a good choice (no pun intended).

Vaporeon @Leftovers
Trait: Water Absorb
188 HP / 68 SPAtk / 252 Defense
Bold
~ Ice Beam
~ Surf
~ Protect/Haze/Toxic
~ Wish

Looks good, might want to make it 252 HP and 188 Defense though because if you get hit by a special attack you can take it easier than having the EVs all in defense. You might also want Haze or Toxic instead of Protect. If you have Haze you can get rid of those Calm Minders / Bulk Ups, etc. Toxic just to have fun and still deal damage.

Arcanine @ Choice Band
Trait: Flash Fire
252 Atk / 252 Speed / 4 HP
Adamant
~ Cruch
~ Extremespeed
~ Thunder Fang
~ Flare Blitz

If you can switch him into a fire attack you know won't do much damage to him, then you're set up for an intense Flare Blitz.

[email protected] Choice Scarf
Trait: Sand Veil
252 Atk/252 Spd/4 Sp akt
Adamant
~ Outrage
~ Earthquake
~ Stone Edge
~ Fire Blast

Looks good.

[email protected] Life Orb
Trait: Motor Drive
252 Attack/ 252 Speed, 6 HP
Jolly Nature
~Cross Chop
~Earthquake
~Ice Punch
~Thunderpunch

Don't see the point in weakening it's attacks to give it a Thunderbolt, just get a Special Sweeper.

[email protected] Focus Sash
Trait: Levitate
252 SAtk/252 Spd
Timid Nature
~Shadow Ball
~Focus Blast
~Thunderbolt
~Hypnosis

There ya go... You should have one more Special Sweeper though.

[email protected] Leftovers / Life Orb
Trait: Natural Cure
148 HP/252 Def/108 SAtk
Calm nature
~ Thunderbolt / Thunder
~Ice Beam
~Rest
~Sleep Talk

Looks good.

You really need a more balanced team. A team of three sweepers and three walls is perfect. But that's just me, do whatever it takes to win. ;)

You have no physical wall >_>

disrhythm January 28th, 2008 11:01 AM

Seems like I overlooked that. Any suggestions for a good physical wall. I was thinking of maybe using Ludicolo.

luke January 28th, 2008 11:11 AM

Ludicolo is far from a Physical Wall.

Shiraishi January 28th, 2008 11:12 AM

Ludicolo's def is piss-poor @[email protected] Your team is pretty resistant to MixApe so Skarmory and Tangrowth do ok here. I don't know who to replace though :/

disrhythm January 28th, 2008 11:18 AM

Hmmm. Maybe I could run a team with Kingdra, Electivire, Blissey, Gengar, Tangrowth and Vaporeon? Just checked and I saw no real weaknesses that i couldn't work around.

Shiraishi January 28th, 2008 11:43 AM

I might steal this o_O You might wanna replace Kingdra with a nice fast physical sweeper :/ 2 sp. sweepers isn't necessary, Blissey is just too damn hard to take out.
