    6 Defence

    Moveset:
    Spikes

    explosion is probably a good idea incase your in a struggle battle

    Togekiss
    Modest
    Serene Grace

    252 Sp. Attack
    126 Defence

    252 sp. attack 152 sp. defence 100 speed is the best way to go

    Moveset:
    Nasty Plot
    Baton Pass flamethrower
    HP (Ground)roost

    togekiss isn't a baton passer, plus the way I use it (as a sweeper and a tank) you need to use roost to boost hp. that way you don't need as many HP EV's

    great team, good job on it.
     
    Claydol@Light Clay/Leftovers
    Trait : Levitate
    Moves :
    Rapid Spin
    Ice Beam
    Earthquake
    Reflect/Light Screen
     
    You've got a rather huge Fire-type weakness, what's worse is you don't have any resistances in that area. Consider changing things around, as you have too many Steel types.


    Defence, sp. def EV's won't help anyways

    Not true. Steelix already has plenty of defence. It would be better to weaken Special moves, even if by a little.
     
    Yeah, but take away all those attack EVs on steelix...it doesn't need all of 'em, it needs max HP is what it needs.

    And Gyro Ball on Magnezone? Isn't his Attack deplorable?
    Click to expand...

    Yes, it is. :x

    I'd switch it for Flash Cannon, at least this way it can deal more damage with its higher special attack base. Explosion can give it great versatility, but would need quite a lot of attack EVs to even deal an OHKO on a Blissey, besides, you've got enough exploders as it is, and I doubt you'd want your whole team to commit suicide until you have nothing left.
     
    If you are going to have a physical attack on Magnezone. Then it might as well be Explosion.

    Also, speed on Togekiss?
     
    Togekiss @ Leftovers
    Modest / Calm Nature
    EVs: 252 HP / 120 Def / 88 Sp.Def / 50 Sp.Atk
    - Air Slash
    - Aura Sphere / Grass Knot
    - Roost
    - Thunder Wave

    Air Slash's already high flinch rate doubles, plus with Thunder Wave, this set can really be annoying for your opponent. Thunder Wave guarantees paralysis, but that means Ground types get sent out, and pokémon with the ability Volt Absorb / Motor Drive switching in. Aura Sphere is for Rock / Steel types that resist Air Slash, while Grass Knot can hurt the Ground-type switches.

    Ehh.. Physical Attacks on Omastar to me are a waste of its stats. It sorely misses Bite from RSE. If you want to have a Special-Based Rock Attack, Ancientpower is its only choice. And I'm not a fan of this move. Someone else can give you a better suggestion.
     
    Oops, I didn't realise it was physical, what could I put there instead ?
