My team needs a few tweaks so give me the best rates you know. Also, don't bag my team, you may be a pro but guess what? I'm not. Maybe suggest some other pokemon to fix up my team. I suck at EVs. (Remember, NetBattle doesn't have Diamond & Pearl pokemon, don't suggest new pokemon and moves, I'm not using Shoddy Battle yet.)

Heracross (M) @ Salac Berry/Choice Band
Trait: Guts
EVs: 4 HP / 252 Atk / 252 Spd
Adamant Nature (+Atk, -SAtk)
- Brick Break
- Earthquake
- Megahorn
- Rock Slide

Good start. Jolly over adamant maybe, but it's fine. I'd give it guts, though it's up to you

Blissey (F) @ Leftovers
Trait: Natural Cure
EVs: 252 HP / 252 Defense / 6 Special Defense
Impish Nature (+Def, -SAtk)
- Aromatherapy
- Seismic Toss
- Softboiled
- Thunder Wave

Again, looks great. Fixed the EVs for ya. That EV spread is the best, trust me. Moveset is a-okay.

Snorlax (M) @ Leftovers ** Fatty-Poomba
Trait: Thick Fat
EVs: 252 HP / 132 Defense / 126 Attack
Adamant Nature (+Atk, -SAtk)
- Curse
- Rest
- Shadow Ball
- Return

Standard Curselax. Works very well. Pretty simple, use curse a few times and punish the foe! Since you already have bliss as your sp. wall, I meesed with Curselax's EVs a bit.

Metagross @ Leftovers
Trait: Clear Body
EVs: 252 Atk / the rest in Defense/HP and speed...can't give exact numbers
Adamant Nature (+Atk, -SAtk)
- Earthquake
- Explosion
- Meteor Mash
- Agility

Agiligross at its finest. Pretty easy to use...not much more to say here.

Gengar (M) @ Leftovers
Trait: Levitate
EVs: 252 Spd / 252 SAtk / 4 HP
Modest Nature (+SAtk, -Atk)
- Destiny bond
- Ice Punch
- Wiil-o-Wisp/Hypnosis/Haze/HP special
- Thunderbolt

Gengar has 65 base attack...not good. Use special attacks and status moves only on Gar. Lots of choices, some I didn't even mention. Choices choices choices!

Entei @ Leftovers
Trait: Pressure
EVs: 252 Atk / 252 Def / 4 Spd
Adamant Nature (+Atk, -SAtk)
- HP physical
- Iron Tail
- Roar
- Return
You've chosen Entei, possibly the worst legendary ever...EVER. It's movepool is the size of Vatican City (very small) and I just don't recommend it. If you have to use Iron tail, something's not right. Replacing it is in your best interest. I'll post a set though...

Overall it's a good team. No glaring weaknesses...nice job!

Okay, thanks. Since you said Entei is possibly the worst legendary, could you suggest a poke to replace it?

Since you don't really have a physical wall, sure. S-T-E-E-L-I-X! Its monster defense is matched only by regirock and shuckle. Geodude can get it EQ and Explosion as egg moves. USe those as well as roar and rest/toxic and you're set. Forretress and Skarm are good options as well.

Impish Nature (+Def, -SAtk)

Snorlax and blissey dont work well together. replace one of them. if your keeping bliss then the set is alright (i like ice beam better than thunder wave), though evs are a bit wtf and nature should be bold (if ya using ice beam).

Snorlax (M) @ Leftovers ** Fatty-Poomba
Trait: Thick Fat
EVs: 252 HP / 4 Atk / 252 Def
Adamant Nature (+Atk, -SAtk)
- Body Slam

if your keeping snorlax then use curselax set.

Metagross @ Leftovers
Trait: Clear Body
EVs: 252 Atk / 4 Def / 252 SAtk
Adamant Nature (+Atk, -SAtk)
- Earthquake
- Explosion
- Rock Slide

a hoi hoi, you said it wasn't dp right? then no thunderpunch. needs more meteor mash.

Gengar (M) @ Leftovers
Trait: Levitate
EVs: 91 Def / 160 Spd / 252 SAtk / 4 SDef
Modest Nature (+SAtk, -Atk)
- Brick Break

focus punch over brick break and sub over shadow ball/ice punch.

Entei @ Leftovers
Trait: Pressure
EVs: 252 Atk / 252 Def / 4 Spd
Adamant Nature (+Atk, -SAtk)
- Flamethrower
- Iron Tail
- Substitute
- Toxic

hmm tough one. i would imagine sunny day to be useful over here but idk tbh. fire blast over flamethrower. moltres is always better than this.
lacks physical defence but a solid team overall. evs are a bit wack though.

If you still decide to use Entei, you should use him in the following way:

Entei @ Leftovers
Ability: Pressure
EVs: 132 HP / 80 Def / 220 Spd / 76 SAtk
Timid Nature (+Spd, -Atk)
- Calm Mind
- Flamethrower
- Hidden Power (Grass)
- Substitute
Entei gets one thing the other legends don't get. 404 Subs against Blissey. Scores you a free CM, and a chance at actually sweeping the opponent's team. But since Salamence and a few selected Ground Types wall it, it's no wonder why Entei is hardly used.

works well for me
Sludge Bomb is a no-no, only covers one type, grass. Put Hypnosis instead of sub with the wide glasses. T-bolt over Sludge Bomb. Now it covers many types, and can "boltbeam" when you add HP ice if you'd like. I prefer Focus Blast, Hyp., Tbolt, and Shad. Ball. Works very well.

EDIT: I feel this needs to be brought up: I am a member of pe2k, but I found lugialord on pe2k posting his team:

"My team needs a few tweaks so give me the best rates you know. Also, don't bag my team, you may be a pro but guess what? I'm not. Maybe suggest some other pokemon to fix up my team. I suck at EVs. (Remember, NetBattle doesn't have Diamond & Pearl pokemon, don't suggest new pokemon and moves, I'm not using Shoddy Battle yet.)

*insert team here*

I also use Pkmncommunity so I copied my team (not using their suggestions) so I could get your suggestions/opinions about this team. No flaming."

Uh, then why post? At least tell us you're not taking our suggestions. BTW, most of our suggestions are correct, but, whatever. I'll make sure to leave a reply, you'll know who I am, quickly. Really, couldn't you have at least told us? No physical wall is never good. And, 252 sp. att. EVs on a physical Metagross? Uh, okay. If I were a mod this would be locked. Really, all is forgiven if you just tell me why...because tomorrow is my last day of summer and I'm not wasting it responding to people who don't need the help. Sorry for going bananas, but this doesn't make sense...

Doesn't matter, just read my edited last post. That should explain it to you. Lugialord isn't taking our advice, so why post it? Here's some advice: Get a physical wall! Take off the sp. attack EVs on physical metagross! Put choice band on heracross!. Ah, forget it. I'd REALLY like an explanation Lugialord...
