Houndoom @ leftovers
personality:Modest
-Sunny Day
-Solar Beam
-Crunch
-Fire Blast

I used to see alot of these back in G/S/C, but basically I set up with sunny day first if they switch to a water solar beam, if they have a Ninjask or somethin like that I switch to Mightyena anything else Fire blast or crunch it depending on what it is.

Mightyena @ leftovers
Personality: Admant
-Psych up
-Roar
-Crunch
-Return

I made this thing like a pseudo-hazer I've been gettin the best results against Ninjask's I switch in, psych up, then roar around the 2nd or 3rd time they swords dance, they usually baton pass around then, or I can just psych-up then roar the Ninjask out.

Charizard @ Salac Berry
personality:Admant
-Fire Blast
-Belly Drum
-Earthquake
-Rock Slide

Standard drumlax

Magmar @ leftovers
personality:Modest
-Psychic
-FireBlast
-Confuse Ray
-Hp Grass

Ive been doing suprisingly well with this one and it isnt even really that great of a set Im finding I battle alot better with pokemon I like then fugly standards for some reason. Basically just attack whateva with whateva depending on what it is, confuse ray is useful and annoying :)

Umbreon @ leftovers
personality: Jolly
-mean look
-confuse ray
-baton pass
-toxic

I really just made this Umbreon to kill those d*** Blissey's, I switch in to Umbreon, Mean look Blissey, confuse it, Poison it, then Baton Pass to Machamp and cross chop away while its trying to softboil or Aromatherapy.

Machamp @ leftovers
personality:Admant
-Cross Chop
-Fire Blast
-earthquake
-rock slide

Pretty Standard



Problems Im having: Choice Band Tauros if anybody has any suggestions for countering it it would be greatly appreciated

I guess that's pretty standardish but quite UU. From what I can tell your team is a UU/BL team.

Okay but maybe you could try some type of boosting berry since this pokemon is all about stat boosting. You have to be careful with pokemon only designed to counter a single pokemon. Why not try a pokemon with an attack that hits twice or more like Bonemerang or Fury Swipes to counter all subs not just Ninjask?

Charizard @ Salac Berry

No, not really standard you need substitute. And you might want HP Flying for STAB.

Magmar @ leftovers
personality:Modest
-Psychic
-FireBlast
-Confuse Ray
-Hp Grass

Again, kinda UU.

Umbreon @ leftovers

-confuse ray
-baton pass
-toxic

I guess its okay but you might want an attacking move or something in case they Sub or something... I'd suggest Return/Double-Edge/Faint Attack (for ghosts) Maybe even Psychic. Your choice.

Machamp @ leftovers
personality:Admant
-Cross Chop
-Fire Blast
-earthquake
-rock slide

Pretty Standard
Nothing to say...


Problems Im having: Choice Band Tauros if anybody has any suggestions for countering it it would be greatly appreciated

Add some type of ghost to the team is your solution to CB Tauros. Gengar is a favorite. A ghost with Levitate is good.

I like this Magmar

Sub>Confuse Ray
Petaya/Salac>Leftovers

Moonlight> Confuse Ray it you want to it Toxic Trap by itself

This thing makes a good starter

I only done the ones I thought could do with a change, since they no longer work in the metagame now (Drumzard, and Houndoom).

Houndoom can take on both Blissey and Skarmory, same with Charizard, but Zard can try taking on Lax and other random things that pop up.

I like the magmer set it beats Grasses, Pert, Weezing,

Maybe
~Cross Chop
~Fire Blast
~Psychic
~HP: Ghost

Cross Chop is your main move, Fire Blast Skarm, Psychic Weezing, HP: Ghost Ghosts and such


solrock over Machamp

It won't do enough to Blissey I don't think.

Consider some kind of non attacking move for the last slot, don't know what he learns, maybe Toxic?
