    This is actually a bit bold since it's my first day here but I came here to learn how to play competitively and so i'm here posting my current design of my team, and asking sugestions.

    Without any delay here it is:

    Scizor @Choice band
    EVs: 248 HP / 252 Atk / 8 Spe
    Adamant Nature
    Ability: Technician
    -U-turn
    -Bullet Punch
    -Superpower
    -Pursuit

    Heatran @Choice Scarf
    EVs: 4 Atk / 252 SpA / 252 Spe
    Hasty/Naive Nature
    -Fire Blast
    -Earth Power
    -Hidden Power Grass
    -Explosion

    Suicune@Leftovers
    172 HP / 120 S.ATT / 216 Speed
    Timid Nature
    - Surf / Hydro Pump
    - Beam
    - Hidden Power Electric
    - Calm Mind

    Salamence @Life Orb
    EVs: 4 HP / 252 Atk / 252 Spe
    Adamant/Jolly Nature
    -Dragon Dance
    -Outrage
    -Earthquake
    -Stone Edge

    Infernape @Life Orb
    EVs: 64 Atk / 252 SpA / 192 Spe
    Naive Nature
    -Close Combat
    -Fire Blast
    -Grass Knot
    -Hidden Power Ice

    Metagross @Lum Berry
    EVs: 252 HP / 236 Atk / 12 Def / 8 Spe
    Adamant Nature
    -Stealth Rock
    -Earthquake
    -Bullet Punch
    -Explosion

    This team was built in an Offensive-wise maner, my most important concern was to keep my resistances and power in balance, I don't actually remember if my lead was suposed to be metagross or heatran though, the rest of the team is just a mix of offense that has balance type-wise and resistance-wise. Pls post sugestions for improvements or changes i'm open to anything.

    Regards Meganom

    Gyarados weak, massively.

    Suicune@Leftovers
    172 HP / 120 S.ATT / 216 Speed
    Timid Nature
    - Surf / Hydro Pump
    - Beam
    - Hidden Power Electric
    - Calm Mind

    >> Gengar.

    This beats Gyarados and also lures in water types which helps Infernape.

    Lum Berry >> Occa Berry on Meta. Occa Berry is useless especially when things like Smeargle/Rose threaten to sleep you and sets up layers of Spikes and SR too. Even more so that your team cant take status for squat.
     
    Why put 24 SpA EV's on Salamence when you aren't even using Fire Blast? Use an EV spread of 4 HP / 252 Atk / 252 Spe and an Adamant or a Jolly nature on Salamence.
     
    thx for the tips. Any more sugestions out there to improve or change the team a little?

    I assume that you U-turn to Metagross to put up SR which is a bad idea, because your going to end up getting your Metagross killed pretty easily. If thats not what you do, then you probably get SR up pretty late, my advice would be to make your Metagross a CB Metagross, and U-turn to Heatran whom you should give SR, that way you'll have a good chance at activating your Heatran's Flash Fire ability.
     
    actually Metagross was supposed to be the lead to set up SR in the beginning of the battle so...
    Still no more suggestions? Is my team that bad/good or is it just a team that fits within it's own purpose and style?
