Ok so I made this for fun it is pretty cool. I like the pokemon I put in and I think it works. I know for sure that it might need some criticisim but I am not a hardcore battler so don't sweat it too much if I am lacking too much in a certain area.

I tried using pokemon that are SOOOO standard in non Uber teams, plus pokemon I like. Here is what I came up with.

I don't see the point in HP Rock on Donphan. It's special now, so Donphan won't be doing much damage. You should at least replace it with Stone Edge.

Jolly reduces SpA, so go Timid on Sceptile. Nothing else I can really spot...

Why are you using Jolly on a Special Attacking Sceptile? And also, why are you using Hidden Power Rock? Donphan has laughable Special attack, use Stone Edge for power or Rock Slide for PP.

I would rather have Ambipom to be the lead, whereas Sceptile can come in at late game where most of the early (and very lively) counters to it are at KO range or at least weakened.

Edits in bold. Flygon or Ambipom would make better leads than Sceptile, personally I'd lead off with Flygon. If you can predict right you'll catch people off guard first shot, maybe them switching Donphan/Cloyster/etc. into a Draco Meteor.

Also, consider Ice Shard in place of a Rock move on Donphan. You'll be able to counter Garchomp better.

Ah' didn't realize that when I was building it, I guess I just forgot the natures for a second. And I see what you are saying about the Sp Atk. on Donphan so I will change it to Stone Edge or Rock Slide.

O.K. I will change my lead to Ambipom. That sounds like a more viable plan, thanks.

Haha, I almost forgot to mention.... I am building this team almost exclusively to play my brother, who is using mostly UU pokemon. So I wont be battling a garchomp.

Plus, I don't really think i will be using this team in competetive battles this is just for fun!
