    I'm sad. This thing is cool with Leech Seed/HP Grass/Ice Beam/Synthesis. Beats up Swampert, Suicune, and Milotic, lolls slightly at non Calm Mind Celebis, and does just a lot of cool things. Put some Def on this thing.

    Good luck, i could never get this thing to work ;_;

    K. If running Impish, though, Fire Blast > Flamethrower.

    I can't see anything in particular atm that would give this team huge problems, it just feels unbalanced overall. :/
     
    Well...

    I don't know if Aeriel Ace is stronger than Hidden Powder Flying though.

    Truthfully, why would you do the stalling Leech Seed/Toxic with Synthesis combo when you haven't given this thing any defense EVs? It won't last long, believe me!

    I think your better off with a Docile or Bashful Nature. Don't waste Weezing on Flamethrower.

    I like the main Substitute, Seismic Toss, and heal, considering that Blissey's Atk *ucks like ****

    Sure. I like more speed on it though.

    eh, I like some Def on this, at least 100 Def EVs, to not take a huge amount of damage from +1 Atk Swampert Earthquakes and CBgross Meteor Mashes when it switches in on them. Toxic is kind of meh, I'd recommend Ice Beam over it.

    Swampert (M) @ Leftovers

    - Protect

    I've tried Protect on Swampert several times, and I got to the conclusion, that it's just a waste of a moveslot on Swampert IMO, but whatever floats your boat I guess. Also, granted, it won't make much of a difference, but put 16 more EVs in HP, to take hits a slightly better.

    I don't see the point in using Flamethrower, when you have DDmence and Counterpert for Heracross, and Magneton for Skarmory. Since Milotic and Heracross have pretty much died out, I guess it could be safe to change back Flamethrower to WoW now.

    I don't really like Ice Beam on this tbh, but since it's the only thing on your team that can switch into Giga Drain Gengars, then keep it I guess.

    Fine.
    Ice Beam Starmie could stall your team to an extent, although Blissey+Ludicolo will probably wear it out of PP eventually. CM Celebi could be a bit problematic, but not much counters that 100% anyway, so yeah. Solid team.

    It really is solid, it's just so boring.

    btw, cipherdakim, Bashful and Docile are neutral natures, and all pokemon need some type of beneficial nature. I really do appreciate the effort, but some of your suggestions were a bit un-useful. Keep working at it though.
