    First of all, I'm new to RuSA so I did not list abilities, nature or EV distribution. I was hoping to get some help with these as well as moves since I don't have a very good understanding of them.(I did read the advanced trainer post) Thanks for any suggestions.

    Skarmory- bold @leftovers
    -Roar
    -Spikes
    -Toxic
    -rest

    EV: hp and def

    Though fly is always a good combo with leftovers+toxic, rest is needed for staying power. Leave the fly+leftover+toxic combo to Crobat... Skarmory doesn't attack at all so let's nerf its attack power to be inpenetrable by physical attacks

    Weezing- adamant @White Scarf
    -Sludge bomb
    -Will-o-Wisp
    -explosion
    -Shadow Ball

    EV: max atk, hp, def and spdef

    It's too hard to pass by an opportunity for blowing up... Weezing excels in attack much more than sp.attack so drop flamethrower (you maybe thinking of flamethrower to get skarmory, but i'll rather have explosion to do kamikaze KOs... plus i'm not too sure if Skarmory gets KO from Weezing's flamethrower). Adamant will increase your attack power even further. White Scarf to further increase your chances with explosion.

    Torkoal- sassy/relax @leftovers
    -rest
    -Curse/yawn
    -Flamethrower
    -Body Slam

    EV: atk (if you're not yawning), def, spatt, hp

    This should have been a great moveset except that it takes too long of a setup (pseudohazer comes along and you will be screwed then). Also without rest, tanking is useless... so i took out amnesia for rest. The nature is up to you... if you want more sp.def, use sassy. Relax increases your defense even further. Yawn can be very helpful. It's either sleep so you can attack for a few turns for free, or force the opponent for a pseudo-pseudohaze.

    Tetacruel- bold/modest @ leftovers
    -Mirror coat
    -rest
    -Barrier
    -Ice beam

    EV: Hp, def, spdef

    I'll leave the surfing to Kingdra... if you want to last long to be able to use mirror coat, you'll need rest.

    Kindra- modest @leftovers
    -Surf
    -Ice beam/HP something (spatt)
    -Rain dance
    -rest

    EV: Spd, SpA

    Abuse swift swim ability! You can either duplicate ice beam, or use Hidden Power to get an element that you think you're lacking. Modest to boost sp.att even more. Rest for obvious staying power

    Sandslash- adamant @leftovers
    -earthquake
    -swords dance
    -rest
    -rock slide

    EV: Atk, def, hp

    classical and traditional, but still at its best... plus you really needed someone to use earthquake. Most teams need to have at least one Pokemon to use earthquake... Sandveil+double team may sound like a good strategy, but it's not even close to one... it's too long of a setup to handle.
     
    so many tm's...

    I'm just wondering now how I can get so many rest and other tm's...any tricks for that?
     
    Here is another team I was thinking of...how do you think it would compare to the other?
