Someone To Balance....
 
So, my team consists of Larvitar, Gastly, Dratini, Spheal and Scyther, all to be evolved fully. I need someone to balance them off, dunno what I'm lacking statwise. I was thinking of a Camerupt, but a water attack or rock, or even ground could easily take it down. I have most neccissary attack types ready.. but I guess I need a good poke who would counter the teams major weakness.

Any suggestions?

try infernape.. you need a fighting type

I'd add a reliable wall, maybe togekiss or dusknoir, just so you have a little defense, but it looks good so far.

Replace scyther with heracross,and get a ,machamp

get rid of spheal and get a totadile or something because my totadiles i breed have dig for electric blizzard for grass and hydro pump for the others


Then try a charmander

You definately need a fire type of some kind as a lot of the team you have are weak against ice. Camerupt isn't a bad one to be honest. Had one in my 1st game and was pretty damn powerful.

Yes, remove scyther. Heracross is the bug king.. But then again, you said to be fully evolved. Scizor is actually a really good type. Serebii did a PoTW on scizor. it has 1 immunity and 9 resistances, I believe, all for a trade off a 4x weakness to fire. That's pretty good, especially since you have a lot of fire blockers.. And yes, you need a good wall. I Suggest Shuckle to soak up moves. 400-500 (i think up to 500..) of Sp.def AND def. so it's an amazing wall. It doesn't have any great sp.atk or attack or speed, so just teach it status moves, especially toxic. A Good one will be Toxic + Protect + Substitute + Another status inducing move.

Your team can cover most types. so all that's missing is a decent wall. Walrein is good, but has a common weakness - Fighting + Thunder so you just need a back up.

Also, you could fill it in with a decent sp.atker..

How in the...? Um, no. This doesn't meet S&M standards, thus locked. Review our rules before posting.
