    So basically im just trying to see what kind of team i can make, and it isn't limited to the pokemon above, these are just the gen 5 i have already. Also are ubers aloud?
    I'm looking for a lead too, so who is a good Gen 5 lead?
     
    1. You can't use victini, all legendaries are NOT allowed ( with the exception of the musketeer and genie trios )
    2.If you have max Sp Atk EVs on your Zoroark ( Which I don't think is a legendary )
    then use special attacks use a moveset like this
    -Night Daze ( Exclusive move 10% chance of lowering accuracy )
    -Flamethrower ( for type coverage )
    -Extrasensory ( Egg move, type coverage )
    -Counter ( Once again an egg move, nice if you give it a Focus Item )
    Also, just a warning, Have more diverse types, A Scrafty with/with out Ice Punch would Wipe your team and maybe get stopped by Haxorus ( Depends if it has Ice Punch )
    So maybe switch out some of your pokemon for others. May I use some sets I recently gave to another user


    Darmanitan
    Item: Leftovers
    -Fire Punch
    -Taunt
    -Belly Drum
    -Your Choice

    Excadrill
    Item: ???
    Sandstorm ( To activate ability )
    Swords Dance
    Earthquake
    Rock Slide

    Vanilluxe ( Best counter for Hydreigon )
    -Mirror Coat
    -Ice Beam
    -Blizzard
    -Taunt

    Hydreigon ( Everyone nows we're going to see a lot of this! )
    Item: Persim Berry
    -Tri Attack
    -Fire Blast
    -Outrage
    -Crunch


    Ferrothorn
    Item: ???
    -Explosion
    -Gyro Ball
    -Leech Seed
    -Stealth Rock

    Confagrigus
    Item:Light Clay
    -Light Screen
    -Reflect
    -Toxic
    -Shadow Ball

    Gigalith
    Item: Quick Claw
    -Iron Defense
    -Explosion
    -Smack Down
    -Earthquake

    Mandibuzz
    Item: ???
    -Embargo
    -Whirlwind
    -Bone Rush
    -Faint Attack

    Your going to have to switch out ether Zoroark or Krookidile, One or the Other
    Maybe replace one for a pokemon covering some of these types
    Ice
    Grass
    Water
    Psychic
    Rock
    Poison
    Bug
    Any of those types could give you more of an edge with your team
    3.Rules state that you can only use Unova Pokemon, Sorry dude.
