    Mmmmmm...a Forretress with Zap Cannon? IMO, not gonna work.

    The term "Gyarados Counter" comes to mind. Let's not jump to suck conclusions next time :/

    Though flmaehaze, Gyro ball isn't awful either you know. It has saved me countless times (though we can blame that on the metagame but I won't go there lol).

    Dont forget the dreaded Explosion that puts an end to a lot of problems, like Gyarados.

    I'm not crazy about blowing up my wall, except for the rare steelix of the CB variant or when I have decent enough backup walling.

    Which when you come to think of it, explosion would help if you had something like donphan to back it up.

    should I keep gyro ball also can people now rate my team since it's going to it's finishing stages now? I think I have good team coverage and Gyarados is not a problem with all the ice beams i have.

    I personly think that togekiss is a bit..... under offensive... anyways i chose my superteam by weakness, movestes and strategies (e.g. my electric impervious lanturn with blizzard or heracross with shadow claw.)

    I don't care what people say. I think Zap Cannon Forry sucks like holy hell. Gya's Sp.Def is quite high compared to Forry's hard to look at Sp.ATK. I must flip a coin to HOPE it hits, & it won't OHKO Gya. Plus, If Gya came ino Forry, the opponent will most likely switch-Forry walls Gya pretty well. Not for paralysis, get someone who can use 100% T-Wave if you want it so bad. You'll need some hard core evidence to convince me otherwise.

    EDIT:Plus. Ice Beam doesn't scare Gya in the least. Ice Punch is good on Vire, but still, Grass is better. But its so difficult to get.

    Not to bust your bubble but that made no sense at all. and blizzard is bad unless it has hail support, and most hail teams are gimmicks anyways.

    But Thunder Wave gets taunted. Although I agree that Zap Cannon is crap. 50% becomes 40% due to Waterfall's 20% flinch rate.

    I don't like it either, but it CAN work, just saying "lol it sukz!!!11!!" isn't the best way of going about...that isn't aimed at you guys, I'm just making a point ;)

    Though it is frustrating to fight with for both the Gyara and forry users.

    ???

    You're saying you want type coverage and then you're asking me for a normal move? >.>

    Best coverage is crunch and EQ. There aren't really any other good substitutes, except for fire blast for skarm, which was occasionally ran in ADV.

    Well, your team is totally murdered by Tyranitar so you need EQ for sure. EQ and a normal move...not the best combo. Bronzong, Skarm and the likes give you trouble. But the worst thing is gengar...ouch...

    Wow... hahaha Zap Cannon? I can't believe even the move itself was brought up, good luck with 50% accuracy =P

    Anyways, Forretress can set up almost anything you'd like, it's REALLY versatile.

    How is gengar my worst enemy seeing as I have Porygon-Z to take care of him with his normalness and dark pulse?

    Gengar can't touch him but I will put EQ because it's competitive even though I have EQ on Forretress and ice beam on Starmie.

    Focus blast says hi.

    Gengar can't touch him but I will put EQ because it's competitive even though I have EQ on Forretress and ice beam on Starmie.

    Really, I can't make sense of a word you're saying :/ It's inspiring me NOT to help.

    Pory Z gets pummeled by specs focus blast and now your sweeper is nearly dead...
