1. This belongs in Strategies and movesets, and 2. the movesets could use some work.

You have too many attacks of the same type on some pokemon, such as three grass moves on Torterra. Though the first thing I'd do is replace the frenzy plant, hydro cannon, and blast burn. These are the most powerful, but their accuracy and pp aren't very good. You'd be better off with just leaf storm, surf, and flamethrower which coincidentally you already have. Then the Milotic has both hydro pump and blizzard, which should respectively be surf and ice beam. Same issue as above. The fly on Charizard should be replaced with Aerial Ace, etc since fly uses up two turns.

I like the pokemon in your team. I just hope their not cheated, because I hate it when people have cheated pokemon that they could already have obtained. Other than that, nice Pokemon!

They're at lvl 100 but you don't battle, does that mean they are for contests or what?

You have some nice moves, but you really only need one move type for each pokemon. For instance, your Swampert has hydro cannon, surf AND muddy water. Muddy water is weaker than surf, and hydro cannon may be stronger but leaves you as a sitting duck for the next turn. I'd recommend keeping surf and changing the other two water moves to maybe something like Ice Beam (Good for when your up against a nasty grass pokemon) and some sort of defensive move because your team lacks defense. They all only have attacking moves.. but i guess if your not using them for battles it doesn't really matter that much. Might i ask, what you use them for? contests maybe? or maybe ones you've leveled up to trade for others? In that case, for contests its probably best to stick with attacking moves, and for trading i guess its really up to the person your trading with what kind of moves they want.

This belongs to Strategies & Movesets, so I'll just move it there.

No no no!!! Don't forget, as well as not having more than one move of the same type, you must also pay attention to your pokemon's stats, to judge which moves will have it fighting to it's fullest potential. For instance, you don't want to have Leaf Storm on Torterra because it has such pathetic special attack. While the move itself is powerful, it won't have much use on Torterra, doing only minor damage, with barely past minor on those it is super effective againt.

Now, Wood Hammer or Seed Bomb has a better place, because they are both physical, and are of the same type, getting a STAB (Same Type Attack Bonus).

But then again, Wood Hammer, while powerful, has that nasty recoil effect. Now, Seed Bomb is significantly weaker, but with no recoil. You have to think outside the box and more about strategy if you want to be a sucessful battler.

Hope This Helps :)


EDIT: I'm sorry, I just noticed you said you don't battle. Well, If you ever decide to, then heed my advice. If not ignore it. Heh heh heh...yeah...
