Feedback on team please

[Ripley]

So I just began EV training. Smogon was a HUGE help. They have recommended attacks, natures, etc. So here's the start of my team:

Lucario, Modest, Lv.100 - HP: 274 (23/6) | Atk: 225 (25/0) | Def: 155 (10/0) | Sp.Atk: 350 (21/252) | Sp.Def: 163 (18/0) | Spd: 252 (4/252) | Hidden Power: 53, ROCK | Format: stat (IV/EP)

I'm going to have Lucario hold the Choice Specs. Because Lucario's highest base stat is in Special Attack, I bread until I got one of Modest nature.

His attacks are:
Flash Cannon
Shadow Ball
Dragon Pulse
Aura Sphere

Tyranitar, Adamant, Lv.100 - HP: 339 (28/6) | Atk: 380 (10/252) | Def: 252 (27/0) | Sp.Atk: 189 (15/0) | Sp.Def: 223 (18/0) | Spd: 193 (3/252) | Hidden Power: 69, GHOST | Format: stat (IV/EP)

Tyranitar will hold the Choice Band. His attack power is pretty high.

Attacks:

Dragon Claw
Stone Edge
Giga Impact
Iron Tail

Salamence, Naive, Lv.100 - HP: 322 (22/0) | Atk: 307 (31/6) | Def: 192 (27/0) | Sp.Atk: 316 (28/252) | Sp.Def: 166 (20/0) | Spd: 328 (31/252) | Hidden Power: 39, GROUND | Format: stat (IV/EP)

Salamence will hold the life orb.

Attacks:
Draco Meteor
Dragon Pulse
Fire Blast
Hyper Beam


Please give me feedback on my team so far. It is certainly undergoing work. What do you guys think?

 

[NickofTime]

~tyranitar
Never ever put giga impact on anything
there are just as powerful moves that don't leave you as vulnerable

i dont know why you have dragon claw, you dont get stab from it if your feeling threated by dragons put ice fang on Tyranitar.
use the smogon set if your just starting out
~Stone Edge
~ Crunch
~ Pursuit
~ Aqua Tail / Earthquake
again for salamence get rid of hyper beam, at this point draco meteor is more powerful because it gets stab put on like, another special move that doesn't end in a dead dragon
Luke wants these moves not flash cannon or dragon pulse(terrible coverage) AND A TIMID NATURE SO YOU DON'T GET OUTSPED BY EVERYTHING!
~ Aura Sphere
~ Shadow Ball
~ Hidden Power Rock / Hidden Power Ice
~ Vacuum Wave
right now your probably going to want a pokemon to cover your weaknesses example, mamoswine wrecks the current team(especially if you keep your current moveset)

 

[Ripley]

What would you recommend adding to my team as a defense for that mamoswine?

 

[NickofTime]

any water really take your pick
vaporeon provides wish support (always useful)

cursepert
gyrados
then to cover the electric weakness use hippowdon who takes the mamoswine ice shard suprisingly well (well better than a normal ground would) also it can spread stealth rocks

then to cover cursepert or crocune have something with a grass move and yeah

On Lucario id change Aura Sphere to Focus Blast other wise its just a weaker Physical Lucario (Which Lucario could do ALOT more damage with Close Combat then Aura Sphere)
I dont see the point in using Flash Cannon at all id use Hidden Power Ice there instead.
Change Shadow Ball to Dark Pulse as Fighting/Dark is unresisted by almost nothing and now normal types cant come in on you and take no damage.
Id also change Dragon Pulse as well since its a really weak move with no STAB boosting it...

Also Giga Impact and Hyper Beam may be very powerful moves but they shouldnt be used at all, that just gives someone the chance to bring in something and have a free setup right on you.

On Tyranitar id change his moves to
Crunch/ Stone Edge / Earthquake / Pursuit
Earthquake is better then Iron Tail because of its accuracy.
No Tyranitar should go without a Dark Stab move...
Pursuit for OHKOing choiced Ghosts like Rotom or Gengar stuck on a not very effective Shadow Ball.

And for Salamence change his moveset to..
Draco Meteor / Outrage / Earthquake / Fire Blast

Dragon/Fire/Ground give comeplete coverage nothing resists the three.

As Nickoftime said your team is Mamoswine weak...
Id reccomend Wish Passing Vaporeon, and for CroCune weakness maybe Celebi?

 

[Ripley]

Whats CroCune? And I see what you are saying about the attacks. The Lucario is all special attacks though. How do you think the EVs are?

 

[NickofTime]

suicune thats like the king of stall (unless you like taunt or encore but who does dat anymore =P)

suicune does this
calm mind, calm mind, calm mind you do enough damage to it, rest , sleep talk for 2 turns then it sweeps with surf or ice beam
here is the set
Suicune
calm mind
rest
sleep talk / ice beam
surf
Cursepert does the same thing but opposite
Curse
rest
sleeptalk /earthquake
waterfall

 

[Ripley]

I still don't know what stab is. can anyone help me with that?

 

[NickofTime]

Stab is same type attack bonus, when you use a move the same type as yours you get more power

 

[Ripley]

Ok thanks. But my question is yet to be answered. Are my EV's good?

 

[Darkhunter101]

They're fine, pretty standard.
You're also weak to Gliscor and Mamo, which can be helped by vaporeon or CroCune.
Also take all of Chain's move suggestions into consideration, they'll make your team a lot better.

 

[Ripley]

Ok. Why are some people suggesting Ubers though??

 

[.Gamer]

Nobody suggested any ubers.

 

[Ripley]

Yeah. Somebody said Celebi, unless Celebi is not an Uber

 

[.Gamer]

Celebi isn't an uber. Its OU. A list of Uber pokemon can be found here.

 

[FreakyLocz14]

No, do not use Focus Blast on Luke it has lol accuracy. Aura Sphere is fine.
Do not use Flash Cannon or Dragon Pulse. Try something like Aura Sphere, Shadow Ball, HP Ice, Wacuum Wave.

 

[Ripley]

Moves changed for Lucario:

Psychic (fighting types are a threat)
Aura Sphere
Dark Pulse
Either Water Pulse (for ground and fire) or Ice Punch

 

[FreakyLocz14]

No, no, no! Do not use Psychic on Lucario. Psychic is a bad move if it's not STABed. And why are you using Ice Punch on a Choices Specs set? Use Hidden Power Ice.

 

[Ripley]

Oh ok. And also, is there any way I can battle online without the DS (I have WPA). Shoddy battle is boring. It doesnt have the animation of sound effects. I honestly think it defeats the purpose and takes away all the fun.

There's no online battling program that has sound or animation. Besides, animations makes the battle much slower and take longer to finish.
