Can anyone make me a team that meet these criteria:
Should have: Spikes, Rest, Sleep Talk, Rapid Spin, Haze/Whirl Wind/Roar, a Sleep move
and something to counter Dragon Dancers/Sword Dancers (I absolutely hate em)

Thx in advance.

Basic quintessential team =/. I'll make a spiced up one for you though.

I do what I can:

Tyranitar (M) @ Choice Band
Trait: Sand Stream
EVs: 4 HP / 252 Atk / 252 Spd
Adamant Nature (+Atk, -SAtk)
- Earthquake
- Focus Punch
- Hidden Power [Bug]
- Rock Slide

Showing up in a lot of teams today.

Gengar (M) @ Leftovers
Trait: Levitate
EVs: 44 HP / 216 Def / 108 Spd / 140 SAtk
Timid Nature (+Spd, -Atk)
- Hypnosis
- Ice Punch
- Thunderbolt
- Will-O-Wisp

I stole these EVs. Apparently you can survive Dragon Danced hits from Gyarados and Salamence and OHKO them the next turn.

Forretress (M) @ Leftovers
Trait: Sturdy
EVs: 252 HP / 64 Atk / 192 Def
Impish Nature (+Def, -SAtk)
- Earthquake
- Rapid Spin
- Rest / Explosion / Hidden Power [Bug/Steel]
- Spikes

Rest was my first option, earlier in the team building, but as you look further down, your other options might serve you just as well.

Celebi @ Leftovers
Trait: Natural Cure
EVs: 240 HP / 40 Def / 56 Spd / 36 SAtk / 136 SDef
Bold Nature (+Def, -Atk)
- Heal Bell / Hidden Power [Grass]
- Psychic
- Recover
- Reflect

If you think the team can stand on its own, go with Hidden Power [Grass] over Heal Bell. the SAtk might not be necessary, you can flood that into more Def or SDef. It's also a good idea, in some cases, to thin out the EVs a bit more to give it a 270-271 Speed stat, if you'd like.

Swampert (M) @ Leftovers
Trait: Torrent
EVs: 240 HP / 228 Def / 40 SAtk
Relaxed Nature (+Def, -Spd)
- Earthquake
- Ice Beam
- Rest
- Sleep Talk

The cool versions of Swampert use even more defense, now that Tyranitar is just screwing up the metagame again. You can also use Earthquake, Ice Beam, Roar, Protect/Hydro Pump. Stops Salamence and Tyranitar cold, as far as countering Dragon Dancers. We can let Gengar handle Gyarados with its surprise Defense stat.

Articuno @ Leftovers
Trait: Pressure
EVs: 252 HP / 64 Spd / 56 SAtk / 136 SDef
Calm Nature (+SDef, -Atk)
- Rest
- Sleep Talk
- Ice Beam
- Roar / Heal Bell

If you have Swampert Roaring, you can use this as a Heal Beller instead (Heal Bell wakes it up when it uses it during Sleep Talk :D). Remember Heal Bell is an XD Mod for Articuno

Still a bit boring and standard, but at least it's flexible and solid. You shouldn't have any real problems with Swords Dancers, as Gengar can disable most of the common ones, while stuff like Ninjask and Scizor can easily be Roared away.

Hope this helps.

Thx for the team. Tried wit out except tht Articuno had rest toxic instead it it works pretty well, being able to counter everything as such. But only a few problems so far: Blaziken and SDing Heracrosses. Also is there any way to replace celebii and articuno since i'm planning to get it ingame for tourneys?

How about Vileplume? I've tried using it before, but it seemed there was more to be desired. Could you give me a build for a VIleplume with aromatherapy, no sleep powder.
Thx

Seeing that Sleep Powder is one of Vileplume's premiere moves, my options are limited in making a moveset, but:

@ Leftovers
- Aromatherapy
- Leech Seed
- Giga Drain / Toxic / Stun Spore / Moonlight / Synthesis
- Sludge Bomb / Toxic / Stun Spore / Moonlight / Synthesis

(Though make sure you're using at least one offensive attack).

@ Leftovers
- Aromatherapy
- Sunny Day
- Solar Beam
- Sludge Bomb / Moonlight / Synthesis

I'm not at home, so I can't provide EVs, really. But I don't understand why you'd negelct Sleep Powder. Further more, Venusaur pretty much outclasses Vileplume, with Vileplume's only true advantages being Aromatherapy and Chlorophyll.

I would like someone to suggest a team for my Emerald Version with the following restrictions

- No legendaries, and only rodent, canine, vulpine, weasel-like pokemon (or any that evolve from such type of pokemon) or any of these four pokemon as well (Absol, Rhydon Starmie and Charizard) but only max. of 2 of those.
- No two pokemon the same species
- Starters from any version that fit other criteria are ok
- No pokemon that evolve via trade.
- No Growlithe/Arcanine (haven't got one on Emerald)
- All pokemon should have different types of moveset (eg. only one Special Sweeper)
- No moves on pokemon that require getting a pokemon from any other version.
- Max pokemon with same element type: 2
- Would prefer the team to be flexible, but not vital

It sounds really difficult, but I prefer something to be my sort of team and theres such some I don't like.

Lies. Using Sleep Powder is as simple as switching Vileplume in on a Thunderbolt, and using Sleep Powder on the switch-in.

Soulflame, your request isn't difficult. Just redundantly worded.

Granbull is actually decent at physical tanking, but it won't fit on this team. You don't necessarily always need a cleric.

I'll start on any other requests tomorrow if no one else does.

Soulflame, I might try yours, but having to look back and forth between my team builder and the post might be time consuming.

O_o
I won't post EVs, as they require knowledge of your Pokemon's IVs:

Blaziken @ Leftovers / Salac Berry
Trait: Blaze
Adamant / Naughty / Lonely Nature
- Fire Blast / Flamethrower
- Swords Dance
- Sky Uppercut / Brick Break
- Rock Slide

Blaziken.

Regice @ Leftovers
Trait: Clear Body
Bold / Modest / Calm Nature
- Ice Beam
- Thunder / Thunderbolt
- Rest / Explosion
- Psych Up / Toxic / Thunder Wave

Use Relaxed/Quiet/Sassy if you use Explosion. Special Wall in RSE. Psych Up if you can't handle Calm Minders well.

Luvidisc @ Leftovers
Trait: Swift Swim
Timid / Jolly Nature
- Sweet Kiss
- Toxic
- Attract
- Substitute

Annoyers are dumb, especially in-game, but this is definitely the guy to do it. Train it for maximum Speed.

Cacturne @ Leftovers
Trait: Sand Veil
Brave / Lonely / Naughty Nature
- Substitute
- Focus Punch
- Needle Arm / Giga Drain
- Leech Seed / Spikes

Somewhat of a "Mixed Sweeper" if that's what you meant by "Offensive/Special sweeper. You can probably use Seviper with the same natures with Sludge Bomb, Earthquake/Glare, Giga Drain, and Flamethrower/Glare.

Skarmory @ Leftovers
Trait: Sturdy
Impish Nature
- Drill Peck / Aerial Ace / Air Cutter
- Spikes
- Rest / Substitute
- Roar / Whirlwind

Remember that you can't breed for Drill Peck AND get Whirlwind in the Advance generation. Physical wall. No one does it better.

Flygon @ Leftovers / Choice Band
Trait: Levitate
Adamant / Jolly / Naughty / Naive Nature
- Earthquake
- Rock Slide
- Fire Blast
- Substitute / Dragon Claw

Obviously don't use Substitute with Choice Band. It was meant to be a "Physical" (Not Offensive, if that's what you meant) sweeper, but you probably won't get Hidden Power Flying or Bug for it, which takes away some of its physical potential. That just leaves Dragon Claw for a filler option.

When you finally understand that annoyers are lame, use Milotic over Luvdisc. Bold Nature. Max Defense. Surf, Ice Beam, Recover, Toxic/Hypnosis/Light Screen.

It sounds really difficult, but I prefer something to be my sort of team and theres such some I don't like.
There was an easier way to request that, but w/e.

Ninetales @ Leftovers
Trait: Flash Fire
Timid Nature
- Flamethrower
- Will-O-Wisp / Overheat
- Hypnosis
- Grudge

Disable things, allow your other pokemon to set up, and get rid of opposing Surfs/Earthquakes with Grudge so Rhydon's threats are cut down. Overheat can be kind of a kamikaze move before Grudge is used, as well as you might need paralysis support, so burn status won't get too much in the way of that.

OR

Charizard @ Leftovers / Salac Berry
Trait: Blaze
Adamant / Jolly / Lonely / Naughty / Naive / Hasty Nature
- Fire Blast / Flamethrower
- Swords Dance / Belly Drum
- Earthquake
- Aerial Ace / Rock Slide

As a Swords Dance recipient

OR

Blaziken @ Leftovers / Salac Berry
Trait: Blaze
Adamant / Naughty / Lonely Nature
- Fire Blast / Flamethrower
- Swords Dance
- Sky Uppercut / Brick Break
- Rock Slide

Also as a Swords Dance recipient.

Rhydon @ Leftvers / Salac Berry
Trait: Rock Head / Lightningrod
Adamant / Jolly Nature
- Earthquake
- Swords Dance
- Rock Slide
- Substitute / Megahorn

Beast.

Absol @ Leftovers / Salac Berry
Trait: Pressure
Jolly Nature
- Swords Dance
- Baton Pass
- Shadow Ball
- Taunt / Substitute / Double-Edge

Really needs Agility atm, but SD passing is still cool.

Sceptile @ Petaya Berry
Trait: Overgrow
Timid Nature
- Leaf Blade
- Endeavor
- Thunderpunch
- Substitite

I'll explain my choice in a moment.

Starmie @ Leftovers / Petaya Berry
Trait: Natural Cure
Timid / Modest Nature
- Surf / Psychic
- Ice Beam
- Thunderbolt
- Recover

My friend Stalling was cool enough to find out that once Sceptile rips through special walls with Endeavor, Nothing really resists Starmie's attacks.

The last spot, I was having issues on, so you can use Raticate or Sandslash to fill your "rodent" quota, or Sneasel if that counts as a weasel. It will have problems taking Fighting type moves, but Ninetails or Charizard should be able to fend that off. Or Starmie.

Is this for Gold/Silver/Crystal, or for the Advance generation? Sorry I didn't ask sooner.


Sorry that took so fricking long.

I need two other pokes to complete this team.

I already have:

Swampert as my Defensive Wall
Gardevoir as my Special Sweeper
Skarmory as my Spiker
Salamence as my Physical Sweeper

I need a special sponge but I was really indecisive on choosing one. Last spot can be whatever supports or fits my team best.

Side Note: This is Emerald, and I only have a DS so I don't have any trading capabilities unfortunately.

No, Skarmory is your physical wall. Swampert is just a bulky water, made to take hits from Salamence and Tyranitar, and take a number lesser physical hits.

The only thing you can do in Emerald, as far as special tanking/sponging is use Regice and/or Ludicolo, or use Rest/Sleep Talk/Calm Mind/Psychic Gardevoir to help out. I strongly recommend Regice.

Ok Regice sounds cool to me. Is it available to me before of after the Elite Four? If not I already had a Ludicolo in the waiting, so I could probably use that Pre Elite Four. Can you provide movesets for both just in case?

I need a team for Leaf Green. No starters (except Venasuar). Only legendary birds (Arcticuno, Moltres, and Zapdos). Trying to get a good team for the Elite 4.

EDIT: I mean only as in the only legendaries.
