Decided on my last slot ...
 
I’m unsure which Pokemon should fill the last slot in my team, I’m IV breeding and EV training all of them. Anyway here are the five Pokemon which are guaranteed a place. :)

http://www.serebii.net/diamondpearl/pokemon/445-m.png

Garchomp - Physical Sweeper
Jolly Nature

- Dragon Rush / Dragon Claw
- Earthquake
- Fire Fang
- Swords Dance

http://www.serebii.net/diamondpearl/pokemon/094-m.png

Gengar - Special Sweeper
Timid Nature

- Shadow Ball
- Thunderbolt / Sludge Bomb
- Dream Eater / Focus Blast
- Hypnosis / Subsitute

http://www.serebii.net/diamondpearl/pokemon/227-m.png

Skamory - Physical Wall
Impish Nature

- Brave Bird
- Spikes
- Whirlwind
- Roost

http://www.serebii.net/pokedex-dp/evo/242.png

Blissey - Special Wall
Bold Nature

- Seismic Toss
- Ice Beam / Stealth Rock
- Thunder Wave
- Softboiled

http://www.serebii.net/diamondpearl/pokemon/248-m.png

Tyranitar - Physical Sweeper
Adamant Nature

- Stone Edge
- Crunch
- Earthquake / Taunt
- Dragon Dance

I'm not sure who can take the last slot though, I was thinking about a special sweeper ... such as Alakazam, Porygon-Z, Glaceon or somebody. I'm not sure whether I need something different though. :)

Could I have your suggestions please? :)

Fixes packed in a quote. Boo speaks the truth, we would like some EVs and items

Hmmm, you're lacking Rapid Spin and want a special sweeper? Well, my friend, Starmie says hi. You can go with Bulky Starmie, or just use a Special Sweeper set and stick Rapid Spin in there (that means no choice items, mind you).

luke March 13th, 2008 8:37 AM

It's never good to mix the Special Sweeper and Rapid Spinning sets on Starmie. Go with one or the other.

Archer March 13th, 2008 8:38 AM

Yeah, just give it enough Spd EVs to outrun Garchomp, Whack 252 in SAtk and the rest in HP.
Starmie@Lefties
Timid | 252 SAtk / x Spd / x HP (see above)
~Ice Beam
~Thunderbolt
~Rapid Spin
~Surf/Recover

Oh, and other than that, consider Fireblast over Fire Fang on Garchomp. Hits Skarmory and Forretress. You have no Mixed Sweepers - you better have good predicition, or SkarmBliss will wall you outright.

Changes are in bold.

SkarmBliss generally doesnt work this gen, it needs so much support, as of now, your electivire weak, breloom weak, Azelf, Mixape weak etc.

Jolly nature noaw !!! Ice Beam 2hko's hippowdon, Donphan, ohko's Gliscor, Garchomp with Life Orb, should you want that. Crunch 2hkos swampert with Blackglasses.

Use crunch and eq, it has the best coverage.

you should try a rhyperior, good attack, def, hp, gets solid rock. and you can give it rock polish and a focus sash, set up, focus sash saves you, and sweep. (even though you need a special sweeper :) )
