Items and EVs would totally be appreciated.
I'll assume this is Gen V, with some Gen VI focus mixed in. Ferrothorn is ABSOLUTE Taunt bait with its current move set. It really needs an offensive move somewhere, like Gyro Ball and Power Whip, its strongest STAB moves. Preferred EV spread is 252 HP/48 Def/208 SDef and the item should be Leftovers. Gardevoir's moveset looks offensive yet it's using a defensive nature? Pointless: -Will-o-Wisp -Wish/Pain Split -Protect/Heal Bell -Psychic/Moonblast Nature: Calm EVs: 252 HP/4 Def/252 SDef Item: Leftovers Ability: Trace or -Psychic -Moonblast -Focus Blast -Trick/Thunderbolt Nature: Timid/Modest EVs: 4 Def/252 SAtk/252 Spe Item: Choice Specs/Choice Scarf Ability: Trace Really, the only Pokemon who benefits from Espeon's Calm Mind boosts is Gardevoir, and no one else, so BPing boosts is pointless: -Reflect -Light Screen -Psychic/Psyshock -Baton Pass/Hidden Power (Fire) Nature: Timid EVs: 252 HP/4 Def/252 Spe Item: Light Clay Ability: Magic Bounce or -Psychic/Psyshock -Hidden Power (Fire) -Signal Beam/Grass Knot -Baton Pass/Protect Nature: Timid EVs: 4 HP/252 SAtk/252 Spe Item: Life Orb Ability: Magic Bounce Scizor's EV spread should be 248 HP/252 Atk/8 SDef; its item should be Choice Band. RestTalk Snorlax isn't very effective, since Ghosts wall it entirely. It's up to you to add something else. I don't see what you're up to with Haxorus here. Rock Slide is absolutely pointless, as its other moves can handle threats just fine. Iron Tail may see some use in Gen VI for Fairies: -Swords Dance -Outrage -Superpower/Low Kick -Substitute/Aqua Tail/Earthquake/Iron Tail Nature: Adamant EVs: 4 HP/252 Atk/252 Spe Item: Fighting Gem/Lum Berry/Life Orb Ability: Mold Breaker or -Outrage -Superpower -Earthquake -Aqua Tail/Iron Tail/Dragon Claw Nature: Adamant/Jolly EVs: 4 HP/252 Atk/252 Spe Item: Choice Band Ability: Mold Breaker or -Dragon Dance -Swords Dance -Outrage -Low Kick/Earthquake Nature: Jolly/Adamant EVs: 4 HP/252 Atk/252 Spe Item: Draco Plate/Lum Berry Ability: Mold Breaker or -Dragon Dance -Outrage -Earthquake -Low Kick/Iron Tail/Taunt Nature: Adamant/Jolly EVs: 4 HP/252 Atk/252 Spe Item: Lum Berry/Yache Berry Ability: Mold Breaker |
