Petaya Berry eh? O_o
Anyways, I'd just give it 180 EVs in Speed for 301 total so you can outrun opponents that aim for an even 300.


Donphan (M) @ Leftovers
Trait: Sturdy
EVs: 124 HP / 220 Atk / 68 Def / 96 SDef
Impish Nature (+Def, -SAtk)
- Earthquake
- Rapid Spin
- Roar
- Rock Slide

Donphan does not need any Sp. Defense EVs at all. It's not like your gonna keep it in against a Water type. And defending against supereffective Hidden Powers is pointless. Besides, what this Donphan needs is less Attack and more Def/HP.
Max out its HP, give it about 160-172 Defense, and stack the rest in Attack.


Heracross (M) @ Choice Band
Trait: Guts
EVs: 184 Atk / 20 Def / 252 Spd / 52 SDef
Adamant Nature (+Atk, -SAtk)
- Brick Break/Focus Punch
- Facade
- Megahorn
- Rock Slide

Go with max Attack on Heracross always, Defense EVs are useless. Also if you can predict well, use Focus Punch.

Snorlax (M) @ Leftovers ** Chubs
Trait: Immunity
EVs: 44 HP / 232 Atk / 92 Def / 140 SDef
Careful Nature (+SDef, -SAtk)
- Body Slam
- Counter
- Rest
- Shadow Ball

Hmm, it can work as a surprise. A bit risky though, as you'll really have to predict. If you counter on something like Salamence's Dragon Dance or Metagross's Agility, not only do you waste a turn, but your element of surprise is lost.

Weezing (M) @ Leftovers
Trait: Levitate
EVs: 132 HP / 252 Def / 124 SDef
Impish Nature (+Def, -SAtk)
- Haze
- Pain Split
- Sludge Bomb
- Will-O-Wisp

Two physical on a team eh? Pretty redudant. I do like Weezing for its ability to counter Heracross and other fighters. But I can't help thinking if there is a better choice for this slot, since Donphn already does your phazing and walling.

Vaporeon (F) @ Leftovers
Trait: Water Absorb
EVs: 76 HP / 252 Def / 116 SAtk / 64 SDef
Bold Nature (+Def, -Atk)
- Ice Beam
- Protect
- Surf
- Wish

Give it HP, a lot more HP. 188 should do, then put the rest in Sp. Attack. Like Donphan, it doesn't need any Sp. Defense EVs.

It’s a solid team though with the exception of Gengar, it’s a bit slow. I suggest replacing Weezing with something a little more useful. Maybe Salamence to act as a second physical sweeper while still being able to resist Heracross, as well as also adding some more speed to the team.

Acid Armor is pointless without Baton Pass and even then, Substitute is way better. The only time you should use Acid Armor Vaporeon is on a Baton Pass team.

Anyways, give that Salamence max Attack and Hidden Power Flying as it’s first move. Unless this is in game, in which case, Aerial Ace.

If you want a Surfing Water-type that Beams, then I suggest Swampert. STAB Surf AND EQ, plus IB, along with an immunity to Electric-type attacks and a lone Grass-type weakness would make it a good alternative to Vap. The last move varies. I have seen Rest/Protect/Roar/Rock Slide.

Swampert is a great Pokemon since it counter Salamence, Metagross, and Tyranitar all at once. However, Vaporeon can do something that Swampert can’t and that’s counter Suicune. With Roar and a couple of Calm Minds, nothing could stop Suicune if Vaporeon was taken out of this team.
