Garchomp >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Flygon by the way unless you want to use Roost and U-turn both which Garchomp does not get.
I feel that being opposed to the usage of one pokemon is stupid as that one pokemon can help you win matches. Having such a mentality is against the whole idea and concept of competitive battling, which is to win.
I find it silly when people are against Blissey/Garchomp/Gengar or whatever, they obviously will help you to win matches and are proven to be a determining factor in competitive battles due to their high weighted usage statistics.

Well, it's also about personal preference. You can see that he likes Zard, so the least we can do is try to respect that that wish as much as possible. Not everyone is playing to blindly win, and whether or not you feel that fun isn't involved, it's a factor to some. We can at least make this team as competitive as possible, while respecting whatever things he wants. Don't get me wrong, I do like Blissey, but this whole "the whole point is winning" is moot to some. Yeah, try to win, but if that's the case, I can look up threads at Smogon & steal the best one, like what's been done to Dark Azelf. Very easy to do that. I play to win, but I am not going to only use a few pokes that's been deemed most worthy.
Otherwise, there is no point in team rating. We should all pick the top OU's & call it a day. Make the game limited to what, 48 pokes? Plus 58, counting BL. But BL isn't the best, sorry, so just 48. And a few of those pokes are only usful when the team is centered around that, cutting the small 48 down further.\
Not saying that you are wrong, however, but people has differnt views of the kids game, and should be respected. I love me some best wall in the game myself.
That said, you really should replace Char with Blissey, or get a spinner to help Char's overwhelming Stealth Rock weakness.
