Uh... no. kthnx. Hypnosis usually means the opponent's going to switch out. Oh, look! Two crippled moves on my Gengar now. Plus, Shadow Ball and Focus Blast gives me most of my needed coverage, anyhow. It's pretty much the reason I'm not running Psychic. =P
And, y'know, Sub lets me scout the opponent (usually also means Blissey doesn't TWave if it comes out, making for a better switch-in with the rest of my team. It gives Gengar something nice to hide behind, when the opponent switches in something else. I've actually caught a Weavile unawares like that once. In general, Sub's just a useful move on Gar. Better than Dream Eater, at any rate. =P

huh? the main point is coming on moves like stealth rock or softboiled.. it has plenty of chances.

I don't suppose you see either on this team. =P

team looks pretty solid.. funny how scarfGar can potentially kill your entire team if used right, lol.

Well, yeah, it's all a big prediction bout, like a few other things. Most of the time, I end up switching in rightly. Also, Swampert's bulky enough to take repeated shots from Shadow Ball, so it's a makeshift definite switchin. =P I'm still trying out Suicune, though.

Curse Swampert looks like a serious liability.. Celebi will switch in and Grass Knot to death. Setting up Stealth Rock would at least help you for the rest of the match.
|
Doesn't Celebi do that to almost every Swampert? =P

Magnezone also looks weird..

Friggin' UFOs tend to.

most Skarmory use Shed Shell anyway, and it is easily walled by Blissey.

I aim Maggy at Bronzong, Forretress, Metagross, etc. a lot. And, really it's been doing fine. Bronzong's such a mean thing to my team. ;_; The advantage of taking on Leftovers Skarm is a benefit I guess.

Explosion would at least grant you a kill.. but yeah that's personal preference.

Yeah, but I'm not usually too eager to get Magnezone suiciding, and Sub (the main thing I'd probably replace for Explosion) is sorta useful for similar reasons as it is on Gar. I might give it a whirl, though.
