Pokemon

1 Blaziken

thunder punch
blaze kick
earthquake
sky uppercut

meh

2 Charizard

flamethrower
dragon pulse
air slash
roost or another special move

Special or Physical, never mixed


3 Typhlosion

flamethrower
thunder punch
earthquake
strength / (move of choice)

again, he ain't much of a physical sweeper... but i don't know a better moveset so i'll leave it for now

4 Glacion

baton pass
ice beam
shadow ball
calm mind

if your gonna use hail, abuse Blizzard's 100% accuracy, but even then don't expect miracles

5 Espeon

psychic
morning sun
grass knot
protect

eh

6 Empoleon

surf
ice beam
grass knot
agility

You made Empoleon a Physical attacker?!?!?!


So what do you think?
I think all your pokemon basically do the same thing, in fact most have the exact same moves anyway... meh

Also your team is murdered... MURDERED, by Tyranitar

Pokemon

1 Infernape

thunder punch
Flare Blitz
Stone Edge
Close Combat


Blaziken isn't so great. Go with Infernape. He does this better.

2 Charizard

flamethrower
blast burn / dragon breath / dragon claw
iorn tail / metal claw
aerial ace

I'd recommend taking out Charizard, since you don't need that many fire types. But yeah, go with either a Physical or Special moveset, not both. Also, Aerial Ace and Iron Tail are bad moves.

3 Typhlosion

flamethrower
thunder punch
earthquake
strength / (move of choice)

See above. You really don't need three Fire types.

4 Glacion

hail
ice beam / avalanche
shadow ball
iorn tail

Not an expert on Glaceon, so meh. But Iron Tail is still a bad move.

5 Espeon

psychic
Calm Mind/ Fake Tears
swift / grass knot
protect

Physical moves on Espeon is bad, especially ones with low BP like Swift.

6 Empoleon

surf / hydro cannon
Ice Beam
Grass Knot
Yawn/ Roar/ Stealth Rock

When using Empoleon, take advantage of his 111 base SpAtk.

So what do you think?
Lawl, changes in bold. Overall, this isn't a particularly balanced team. You need a bit more type variety, and a few more defensive players. Empoleon is a good start, though.

Everyone and their brother finds a way to OHKO Infernape. Blaziken is a bit bulkier, and its sweeping capabilities are still very good.

And Sinnoh Pokemon suck anyway. GO JOHTO!

On a side note, if this is going to be used competitively, we'll need some EVs and Natures.
