D/P Blueprints: The Final Force

Dusknoir isnt really Infernape weak, Close Combat doesn;t hit it, And it has enough special defense to fend off fire attacks, and what'll Grass Knot do? Annoy it? And Earthquake isnt a big threat either.

Yes, but Gliscor takes advantage from the Sandstorm, has a good healing move, quickly KOs InfernCross, has Stealth Rock and can Sweep a bit as well... Sandstorm makes it harder for Dusknoir as well...
 
He already has RapidSpiking, but whatever ok.
 
I originally had Gliscor in there, but then I became intimidated by the gigantic Gyarados Set-Up Weakness.
 
you could definitely use gliscor for passing speed + aerial ace + roost if gyara is a concern. i'm not entirely sure who you would pass the speed to XD, but it's just something to consider i suppose.
 
I wouldn't be able to pass to anything instead of Starmie, that's the only member in my team that can resist a Gyarados's Waterfall, and not even by a significant amount.
 
Hmmm, Tangrowth perhaps? It gives you status infliction + Knock Off which is combined, total sweetness, for some reason I think it fits good in it, but on the other hand, Fire Blast will own you if you don't switch it for a Pokémon which is also weak to Fire... =\ Hmm, though decisions...
 
I couldn't run Tangrowth unless I was running it in conjunction with Heatran. Although I do have Snorlax on this team, abusing Flash Fire would've been my main priority ;)

Anyway, I made a couple of minor updates (in bold print of course) on the first post. Here's what they are:

- Optimized Tyranitar's EVs to outrun Infernape after 1 Dragon Dance.
- Exchanged Dusknoir's Focus Punch for Fire Punch for Heracross Combat.

Perhaps I should drop some of that SDef on Dusknoir and add a little attack for that matter?
Also, I get the feeling I'm a little over the edge on this Speed thing with Tyranitar. I might change it back to what it originally was.
 
Just pointing this out...

Dusknoir doesn't have Levitate, silly! :D
 
Fixed. I can't believe I actually left that typo in there o.O
