I'd replace Aerodactly with a Meta~Breaker like Mixed Infernape. You need something with *Grass Knot to help deal with Bulky Waters or Swampert.

Your Walls <Glicor / Blissey> are Excellent.

Heracross is a beast and an awesome lead.

Porygon Z is a scary arse Special Sweeper.

I don't know. Something feels off but i love the parts.

I generally like:
1) Physical Sweeper
2) Mixed Sweeper
3) Special Sweeper
4) Bulky Water / Support Poke
5) Physical Wall
6) Special Wall

I guess you using Rhyperior as a support poke with *Stealth Rock > Bulky Water is what's throwing me for a loop. I tend to like him with a ChoiceBand + *Megahorn / *Avalanche but having Heracross makes that a little less useful.

Overall it's a very good team. I just don't think Aerodactyl fits well.

<EDIT> Is Aerodactyl there to rid you of enemy Gliscor to help clear the way for your Heracross? That would make a little more sense but I would just use Porygon Z to do that. If you are worried about getting off *Ice Fangs than i'd just have Gliscor carrying it over *Sword Dance since he'll be switching in on things that would not like it much ie... Garchomp / Salamence 'the physical'.

Aerodactyl is generally to get rid of things such as Garchomp, Gliscor, Salamence, Dragonite, Blissey, Infernape, etc. I also like the way it looks. :)

Garchomp / Salamence / Dragonite will not stand and fight a Gliscor if he's packing *Ice Fang which mine will be. <Wink>

Dragonite might stay and fight if he's the <Bolt/Beam> variety but *Dragon Dancing seems to be his new bag.

Infernape will not like Gliscor either because he'll fall to the STAB *Earthquake. He should run on sight.

having Infernape would rid you of Blissey hella faster than Aerodactly. That's what i like about having a Mixed Sweeper - he can help rid you of all those pesky Walls that your opponent is planning on using unless he has a mixed wall like Dusknoir.

But i understand if you just got a thing for Aerodactyl. I still think you should find a way to get a (Grass) type attack on your team though because you don't want Swampert to become a problem.

Okay.

Gliscor (M) @ Leftovers
Trait: Sand Veil
EVs: 252 HP / 4 Atk / 252 Def
Impish Nature (+Def, -SAtk)
- Roost
- Stealth Rock
- Earthquake
- Ice Fang
Since you're Physical Tanking with this, you might as well run Stealth Rock on it.

Blissey (F) @ Leftovers
Trait: Natural Cure
EVs: 204 HP / 252 Def / 52 SAtk
Bold Nature (+Def, -Atk)
- Aromatherapy
- Focus Blast
- Softboiled
- Ice Beam
I won't screw with the DEF EVs, because apparently what I run won't matter. Focus Blast puts a stop to Tyranitar.

Aerodactyl (M) @ Life Orb
Trait: Pressure
EVs: 4 HP / 252 Atk / 252 Spd
Jolly Nature (+Spd, -SAtk)
- Earthquake
- Crunch
- Ice Fang
- Stone Edge
Life Orb instead of Choice Band so you can have unlimited Attacking.

Heracross (M) @ Choice Scarf
Trait: Guts
EVs: 4 HP / 252 Atk / 252 Spd
Adamant Nature (+Atk, -SAtk)
- Close Combat
- Megahorn
- Stone Edge
- Pursuit
This looks okay I suppose.

Rhyperior @ Leftovers
Trait: Solid Rock
EVs: 212 HP / 216 Def / 80 SDef
Impish (+Def, -SAtk)
- Eathquake
- Stealth Rock
- Roar
- Stone Edge
More defensive.

I'll change everything that people tell me. *Experiment*
You should consider replacing either Gliscor or Aerodactyl for Infernape. That thing totally obliterates teams.

Don't lead with Porygon-Z. It's more of an endgame sweeper. Lead with Scarf Heracross.

Knock Off > Aerial Ace on Gliscor.

Aerodactyl loses its usefulness with all the Choice Scarfers around. It's best used as a revenge-killer, but you already have Heracross for that purpose, so Aero really isn't needed. Besides, 3x Water weak on one team is terrible.

Replace it with Manaphy.

Manaphy @Leftovers
EVs: 108 HP / 148 Spd / 252 SAtk
Timid Nature
-Surf
-Ice Beam
-Grass Knot
-Tail Glow

@Iceman: Focus Blast on Blissey is totally lol. Without Seismic Toss, stuff like Raikou craps all over her.

I don't have a way to get Manaphy, and I can guarantee you nobody will trade one. D: Would Slowbro work?

Slowbro @ Leftovers
EVs: Would need help on this one.
Bold
- Calm Mind
- Grass Knot
- Ice Beam
- Slack Off

Edit: Wait, Azelf would be better. Editing team now.

I personally like Slowbro a lot.

I also like having *Aerial Ace on Gliscor - To keep Heracross off your back. If i put *Knock Off on him i'd lose *Ice Fang. Especially if you use a Bulky Water with *Ice Beam.

If you use *Ice Fang on Gliscor i'd use *Surf on Slowbro. You could also use *Surf / *Ice Beam / *Grass Knot / *Slack Off on Slowbro if you want better coverage over power.

I haven't really thought about EV's for Slowbro yet. I'm still breeding a Gligar on emerald to pass over to Pearl.

Decided to go with Azelf, although I might switch for Slowbro for breeding the right IVs....

I went with Knock Off for Aerial Ace, although I'll keep Aerial Ace as a possibility if Heracross becomes extremely popular.

Was this meant ironically?

Heracross is a PokeGod now. Every noob will be packing one i'm guessing. A lot of the reason you are seeing lots of teams without one is because most of the peeps you are reading - that know what they are talking about are shunning him because he's too good.

They are restricting him from their teams for now because they want to prove how smart they are by making teams without him. Much the same way they tried not using Snorlax in the past generation. It just isn't sexy right now to use Heracross because there isn't a lot of strategy involved. Your biggest strategy will be ChoiceBand or Adherence Scarf. My guess is you will see more than your fair share of Heracross' once WiFi gets going heavy in like 2 months.

And i'm not knocking you for using Heracross because i will be using him in my team too. ASCross as my lead - although i think i'll make his Spd 264 until i see how popular Adherence Scarf is on starters.

If you use Azelf > Slowbro i'd keep *Ice Fang on Gliscor because Porygon Z isn't going to like switching into Garchomp / Salamence / Dragonite ever so you need an (Ice) attack that can get at them. I just don't know why you prefer 2 Special Sweepers over a Bulky Water?

Well, I have this team posted on 4 Forums (Serebii, Smogon, Pojo and here), and I've gotten a Bulky Water suggestion on Serebii and here, so I guess I need one. I'm thinking Slowbro at the moment, since that was something I was originally going to go with.... I might use something else, though. So confusing. D:

Edit: Went with Slowbro > Azelf. Also added PICTARS!1one
