Blaziken (M) @ Salac Berry
Trait: Blaze
EVs: 252 Atk / 252 Spd / 6 SAtk
Hasty Nature (+Spd, -Def)
- Endure [Should be Sub]
- Fire Blast / Overheat
- Reversal
- Rock Slide [Should be HP Ghost]

Standard.

Ninjask (M) @ Leftovers
Trait: Speed Boost
EVs: 6 HP / 252 Atk / 252 Spd
Adamant Nature (+Atk, -SAtk)
- Protect [Should be Sub]
- Aerial Ace / [HP Bug] / Silver Wind
- Baton Pass
- Swords Dance

Standard. Stir and mix with Marowak for max pawnage on newbs. Tasty.


Salamence (M) @ (Lum Berry)
Trait: Intimidate
EVs: 6 HP / 252 Atk / 252 Spd
Naughty Nature (+Atk, -SDef)
- Rock Slide
- Earthquake
- Dragon Dance
- Fire Blast

Standard. Some others like other physical moves, but I find these the most versatile. Fire Blast is for physical tanks -- especially Skarmory.

Gyarados (M) @ (Lum Berry)
Trait: Intimidate
EVs: 6 HP / 252 Atk / 252 Spd
Adamant Nature (+Atk, -SAtk)
- Earthquake
- Dragon Dance
- Return [Should be HP Flying]
- Taunt

Standard. Some like a +Spd nature so they can outrun the 394 Spd monsters after one DD.


Breloom (M) @ (Quick Claw)
Trait: Effect Spore
EVs: 3 HP / 252 Atk / 255 Spd
Adamant Nature (+Atk, -SAtk)
- Brick Break
- Swords Dance
- Spore
- Iron Tail / Return

[Should be:
Spore
HP Ghost
Sub
Focus Punch]

I hate having such limited squads because of version limitations. Everyone should buy an Action Replay. It's not nice to have to fill in rubbish moves...


Sandslash (M) @ Chesto Berry
Trait: Sand Veil
EVs: 200 HP / 110 Atk / 200 Def
Impish Nature (+Def, -SAtk)
- Rest
- Rock Slide
- Earthquake
- Counter

Maybe kind of a physical tank? Maybe not.





Final Word:

Too much sweeping, not enough tanking. Zam and Gengar -- especillay my Snatching Gengar, which I see now more commonly on NetBattle -- will seriously pawn this team. I don't like the serious need for Lum Berry in the monsters. Gyarados and Salamence are pretty much mirror monsters. One of them could easily go.

Ignore the gender stuff. I was too lazy to remove it from the NetBattle export.

I'm sure someone else will have more descriptive if not better suggestions.

I have action replay, but I'm too lazy to upload any codes to it and it would be cheating because I have no other way of teaching moves besides making pokemon with it. I'd buy a Fire Red if the price wasn't so high, maybe if it ever gets lowered down to $20 or maybe I'll ask for it for christmas. I just don't think I'd play it a lot, I'm pretty busy with school.
