Okay, for a start I'm ultimatley new to desigining a team of Pokemon that is balanced overall. I am aware that it's near enough impossible to have an ultimate team, since somebody else could easily have a team that counteracts the weaknesses of that team and can reduce yours to a pulp. Anyway, the best balanced team is what I would like to eventually achieve.

For a start, I know there are different types of Pokemon, being tanks, sweepers and annoyers. I'm not quite sure what a sweeper is but I'm aware of what tanks and annoyers are simply by their names lol I gather the Pokemon I've got here are the sweepers. I was thinking of desiging my team as this, but obviously you'll see the flaws in it which is what I want. I don't know much when it comes to this, so bear with me and my noobie calls cos I simply don't have much of a clue. I figured that I might as well pitch this beside you guys so you can offer me the best advice for desiging an awesome team which can stand a chance in online battling.

EV training sounds like an effort which I will put in as long as it is worth it, I don't want to EV train and then find out it was worthless because that Pokemon sucks or whatever.

This is what I had in mind for a starter online battling team, all of which I have gathered information from loadsa little places to create. Please suggest to me how to design it better, if monsters need replacing and such.

I wouldnt mind adding an annoyer, or maybe using a tank. They all come in useful in some ways I guess. Anyway, what do people make of this?
