Hm...learn how to spread EVs. I'm a n00b and I know that.

And Swampert only has a special weakness, so maybe you should focus on its Sp. Defense. I'm not sure.

255/255 means 4 EV wasted... that's what Skarmory469 meant.

Ninetales shouldn't use Heat Wave... the little power difference isn't worth the accuracy drop. Imprison is useless here because you can hardly disable anything but your fire attack or (not both) HP Ice. Replace that with standard will o wisp. Put some EVs in hp as hp is more important than both defense.

Armaldo using HP Fire is just silly... rock blast will do better as a Skarmory counter. Replace HP Fire with HP Bug, rapid spin, knock off or chesto rest. Rework the EVs to have hp, atk, and def or sp.def... no point to try to tank without HP EVs ever.

Swampert should lose some atk EV for hp EV.

Dragonite's EV should be either 263 for speed (1+ Breloom) or none at all with a speed - nature... I am too lazy to check it for you.

Make sure to have Medicham's hp to be x/4 +1. Throw away bulk up for another physical move... rock slide or HP Flying.

Miltank is just strange... take out all speed EV as you're cursing anyway. Add up everything on to hp, atk and sp.def, hp being the most important. Quite unique... watch out for toxic though.

Ninetails: Flamethrower, Hp grass, Sub, Will o wisp, Calm nature 149 sp.def, 168 sp.atk, 109 spd, 84 [email protected]

Armaldo: Replace Hp fire with Rapid spin/Knock off and Hp bug over EQ is optional, 252 hp, 20 sp.def, 57 atk, 181 def Impish nature if u want more of a tankish Armaldo works well because it well get u more time to set up S-dance =P

Swampert: good set, Brave nature, 236 hp, 68 atk, 136 sp.def, 70 [email protected] gives it more time to set up

Dragonite: Brave Nature, 252 hp, 60 atk, 96 sp.atk, 45 def, 57 sp.def. same set

Medicham: Hi jump kick, Shadow ball, Rock slide, Focus [email protected] band same evs and nature

Miltank: Set works but as u already have a curser maybe : T-wave, S-toss, Heal bell, Milk drink this is standard i think, Impish nature, 252 hp, 96 sp.def, 162 def

Hope i helped a bit atleast ^^

As for that recognition thing, that'd be great.

Anyway, a suggestion for the team is maybe raise Flygon's Attack, as Quick Attack needs a little power for it to work properly.

I would have lost if i had like, 1 more stat point in attack.

QA is useful as more than just a reversal counter.
Seems like it's enough reason to me.

252/252/6 is taken as EV spreading. 255/255 is not. Learn how EVs actually work and you might know more.

Neither is putting Speed EVs in something that should be special tanking. Personally, I'd rather have two good stats on a monster that needs it (i.e. Spd and SpAt on Zam), rather than all rubbish stats.

What's 6 EV's going to do anyway?
It's only 1 stat point.. so really it makes no difference if it's 255 or 252...

Four stat evs give you 1 more speed point. It lets you outrun anything with your same base speed which doesn't put any into speed at all. Very very useful.

Point taken.
But I really don't think my team relies on speed.

But even if it's insignificant, it doesn't hurt any. So why not give it that one more point? HP can also make a difference; the subbing to 1 hp for reversal/flail. Defences and attackings don't help so much, because they fluctuate 90-110%. But, you never might know what 1 point can help you do. And if you want to seem pro, do the 252 thing ;)
