    Hi Guys

    Have just made another team, bit of the old and some new members, has been working actually really well, just discovered its really weak to electric types , some help would be appreciated, this is a singles team

    Here goes

    Rotom-W @lum berry
    Bold Nature
    212 HP/ 252 Def /44speed
    - Hydro Pump
    - Volt Switch
    - Will O Wisp
    - thunderbolt

    Basically one of my common lead mons, can easily volt switch out if its in trouble, using bold nature jst coz theres a lot of physical attackers around. Will o wisp for those physical attackers, was thinking of putting the move trick in place of thunderbolt and changing my item to like a choice scarf or sumthing, tho this works pretty well

    Chansey@eviolite
    -Aromatherapy
    -Seismic Toss
    -Toxic
    -Soft-Boiled
    Nature: Bold
    EVs: 4 HP/252 Def/252 SDef
    Ability: Natural Cure

    MY special wall and healer, works really well so far, and also my specially defensive wall, was using tyraniar for a while, dint go too well with my team as it doesnt heal itself, still not sure on ev investment, maybe 252hp and def? stalls amazingly well, jst run if theirs physical moves incoming

    Vaporeon @ leftovers
    -Scald
    -Wish
    -Toxic
    -Protect
    Nature: Bold
    EVs: 8sp def/252 Def/248 Def
    Ability: Water Absorb

    Right my newest addition, i simply love vaporean, great wish passer and can hold is own, spread burns with scald since the hit rate is so high, also another physical wall.

    Mandibuzz @ rocky helmet
    -Knock Off
    -Defog
    -Foul play
    -Roost
    EVs: 252def/252 hp and 4 spec def

    Teams defogger to get rid of stealth rocks and such, knock off to take care of items from other mons, and foul play for attack, rocky helmet for damage if they decide to touch me.

    Charizard -y
    -Flamethrower
    -Dragon Pulse
    -Roost
    -Solar Beam
    Evs 252 att 252 speed 6 def

    my special attacker, has been doing exceptionally well, solar beam and dragon pulse for coverage

    Landorus T @ earth plate
    -Earthquake
    -Rock Slide
    -U turn
    -Super Power
    Evs 252 attack 252 speed 6 def

    My physical Attacker, was using garchmp for ages, but jst too many fairies around for my liking,
    not too sure on the item but id rather use this then choice band or scarf as i dont prefer to be locked into one moveset, hence u turn incase i sense danger.

    Well this team is good and seems to win its fair share, tho their is a huge weakness to electrice type moves, any help would be appreciated

    Thanks people :)
     
    Drop Thunderbolt for Rest on Wash Rotom and change the item to Chesto Berry. Sometimes this form of recovery is helpful. If this is a Showdown! team or if you can use Poke Bank, Pain Split + Leftovers is another option.

    I think you have a typo in Vaporeon's EVs. I assume the 248 EVs is for Vaporeon's HP?

    Also, Charizard Y teams tend to be very specialized. Read this post for more. Wash Rotom is indeed good on Zard Y teams for its ability to check/counter Flying spam, while Mandibuzz provides Defog support. Speaking of Mandibuzz, 248 HP/136 Def/108 SDef/16 Spe is the preferred spread to outspeed max Speed Azumarill, while avoiding the 2HKO from Incarnate Landorus' Focus Blast.

    As for Charizard Y itself, it needs Focus Blast to get around Heatran. Drop Dragon Pulse for it.

    Make Therian Landorus your Stealth Rock setter; Stealth Rock is a very good move to have with you:
    -Stealth Rock
    -Earthquake
    -U-turn
    -Stone Edge/Knock Off
    Nature: Impish
    EVs: 252 HP/252 Def/4 SDef
    Item: Leftovers/Rocky Helmet

    Of course, all this specialization for Charizard Y teams means having to remove Chansey and Vaporeon. Refer to the link on how to fill their gaps.
     
    Vaporeon is outclassed by Alomomola, since the latter has much higher HP and Regenerator Try using this set:

    Alomomola @ Leftovers
    Trait: Regenerator
    EVs: 248 HP / 8 Atk / 252 SpD
    Careful Nature

    - Knock Off
    - Wish
    - Protect
    - Toxic

    Your team is way too physically defensive, and if it's meant to be stall you should use specially defensive Zard Y and a bulky Landorus-T spread. Speaking of Landorus-T, you should use Stealth Rock over Superpower, since the latter doesn't really hit anything bar Ferrothorn. SR is one of the most important moves in the game and every team must have it. Also, consider a specially defensive spread on Rotom-W, and I agree with PlatinumDude: Rest > Thunderbolt and Chesto Berry > Lum Berry
     
    ok right, will fix landorus T right away, sicne he is kinda slow anyway ill change ev investments and give him stealth rocks, i might jst give alomola a go, tho still im left with weakness to electric types.
    So by changing landorus ill have another physcially defensive mon in my team, ill change my rotom to calm, mandibuzz still stick around with rocky helmet, theres alomola, could i use maybe mega manectric as a special attacker?

    You already have Charizard Y as your Mega, so Mega Manectric is a no-go.
     
    yeai was thinking of takign my charizard off coz of the electric weakness, tho i need sumthing that hasa decent coverage since charizard covered dragon pulse, flamethrower and solar beami guess meag manetric comes close with over heat, hp ice and meh thunderbolt and one other move
     
    crap jst noticed, ive got an adamant landorus and not impish -_- there goes that hazard setting
