    well, i restarted my platinum and i'm now trying to create an all-rounded speedy team,
    cause i hate when trainers are faster than you and KO always :\ .
    So here's my team :D ,
    open to move suggestions, but please make all pkmn suggestions fast pkmn,
    preferably 100+ base spd :)
    ** I will not list iv's/ev's/natures, as it's ingame, not competitive,
    but i'm open to item suggestions :)

    At a Glance:

    (^i made that myself :)^)

    [PokeCommunity.com] Catch Me If You Can Team

    Floatzel @ Choice Band
    Ice Punch
    Waterfall
    Return/Brick Break
    Crunch/Brick Break

    Choice Band'd as i can switch Jolteon in for volt absorb or
    basically half my team for grass moves.

    Infernape @ Choice Specs
    Heat Wave
    Overheat
    Grass Knot
    Focus Blast

    i just realised that chimchar learns nasty plot after
    i evolve it :P
    choice spec'd it for power, and i can handle a switch to
    scyther if ground move or jolteon/weavile if flying/water move
    and weavile for psychic moves, too.

    Jolteon @ Expert Belt
    Shadow Ball
    Thunderbolt
    Signal Beam
    Heal Bell

    thought like i needed some heal bell, hate it when i get status'd.

    Scyther @ Life Orb
    Roost
    Bug Bite
    Night Slash
    Aerial Ace/Steel Wing

    i wanted scyther over scizor for speed,
    but i don't know what to put as a last move.
    Added Life Orb, wondering if Roost > Swords Dance for recovery.
    Changed X-Scissor to Bug Bite due to my Scyther having
    Technician, also added Steel Wing so i can effectively hit rock
    types.
    Technician Bonus:
    As i have a technician scyther,
    Bug bite now has 90 base attack + STAB,
    X-Scissor stays at 80 base attack + STAB,
    so Bug Bite wins.
    Also, wondering if last move should stay the same;
    Aerial Ace has 90 base attack + STAB and never misses,
    Steel Wing has 75 base attack, but hits rock types effectively?

    Weavile @ Muscle Band
    Ice Punch
    Night Slash
    X-Scissor
    Swords Dance

    Thanks to Weavile05 for Weavile's move set :D

    0/4 Moves Completed

    and i only have five pokemon. i want to keep it that way,
    to have a flying/surfing hm slave in my party at all times :P
    though jjnerdful has suggested a crobat, i'm thinking of something along these lines;

    [PokeCommunity.com] Catch Me If You Can Team

    Crobat @ Leftovers
    Confuse Ray
    Toxic
    Cross Poison
    Fly

    i just love the idea of Crobat being a double status attacker,
    Cross Poison and Fly for STAB, but Fly is also for having a turn where toxic hurts
    and a confused opponent hurts themselves in confusion, and also for a hm slave :P

    Help wanted, and appreciated, thanks :D

    For weavile I would actually go something like this.
    Ice Punch
    Night Slash
    X-Scisor
    Swords Dance

    Definitely NOT Avalanche or Payback, they are so much better on slow pokemon.
    Also, Ice Punch will require you to get some shards and go to the move tutor on route 212 (I think, it's the rainy one near Pastoria, that I know) or breeding. Also note that if you breed, you will first need to breed Medicham (that knows Ice punch) with Buneary to get a baby buneary with Ice Punch, then breed that Baby Buneary with a weavile to get a Baby Sneasel with Ice Punch.

    The move tutor is highly reccomended over breeding.

    thank you :)
    or maybe i'll trade him to hg and use those move tutors?
    im doing that with jolteon, anyways :P :)
    and i've updated Weavile :)
     
    No Crobat, Zam, Sceptile, etc? If you are going for speed might as well go 120+.
     
    Togekiss? It might help with sky attack and fly/strength/cut

    it could be your HM slave
     
    Swellow could be a good addition to your team. Holding Flame/Toxic Orb would give it the Guts boost and with Roost you could recover from the status damage.
    -Fly
    -Facade
    -U-Turn
    -Roost
     
    Nevermind then, aha, you need the Pokeradar to get Swellow which requires the National Dex.

    There's always Ninjask:
    -X-Scissor
    -Swords Dance
    -Baton Pass
    -Aerial Ace

    Even if you don't have an incredibly fast Pokemon on your team, the Speed Boost ability and Swords Dance can be passed to other Pokemon.

    i like the way you think :) ;)
    but ingame i dont feel the need to baton pass,
    and most my pkmn have choice items/swords dance,
    so i don't think ninjask is a good option :)
    thanks though :)
     
    Well then in that case I really don't see any need to revise your team since those Pokemon are the few options before National Dex. Good luck!
