    Hey guys, I currently have a team put together and I'm not sure what adjustments I need to make to it. If anyone could give me their input it would be greatly appreciated. (This is just my Pokemon Platinum team, nothing competitive.)
    My team is as follows:

    1) Infernape@Muscle Band
    Lvl. 100
    Nature: Naughty
    Ability: Blaze
    Flamethrower
    ThunderPunch
    Close Combat
    Earthquake

    2) Gardevoir@Shell Bell
    Lvl. 100
    Nature: Hardy
    Ability: Trace
    Psychic
    Thunderbolt
    Energy Ball
    Shadow Ball

    3) Walrein@Leftovers
    Lvl. 100
    Nature: Docile
    Ability: Ice Body
    Hail
    Avalanche
    Surf
    Toxic

    4) Togekiss@???
    Lvl. 68
    Nature: Hardy
    Ability: Serene Grace
    AncientPower
    Air Slash
    Aura Sphere
    Flamethrower

    5) Weavile@Scope Lens
    Lvl. 74
    Nature: Bold
    Ability: Pressure
    Night Slash
    Ice Punch
    Aerial Ace
    Brick Break

    6) Magnezone@Magnet
    Lvl. 76
    Nature: Lonely
    Ability: Magnet Pull
    Thunderbolt
    Magnet Rise
    Flash Cannon
    Lock-On

    If you see anything that I should switch around, or if there is a better Pokemon to replace one of these, PLEASE let me know. Thanks!!!

  • I'm unsure if this is for an In-game Team rate or competitive battles, so I'll just link you to the latter's section in the Competitive Battling Centre. Repost there but be sure to include EVs (as per the rules of that section), and if you're just after comments from an in-game only perspective that is a subsection of CBC, so repost there.

    Closed due to above; this section is for 4th gen game discussion rather than talking about team advice.


    (As a side note, the Shell Bell isn't very useful in practise - better than nothing but perhaps you could find a replacement there. I'd also replace Aerial Ace on Weavile (it's not hitting much else notable hard it should stay in on anyways) and Lock On with Magnezone (as no move it has really benefits from it).

    EDIT: Tired as heck so I missed the bit in the second line. I'll just move it then to the right section.
