Help with my team (first thread!)

[Serene Grace]

Kay, so I need help with my HG/SS team. I have a full team but I'm thinking of a moveset/alternate Pokemon for Snorlax & some better moves for gator.. my team can be found below:

Yanmega
- Bug Buzz
- AncientPower
- Air Slash
- Toxic

Crobat
- Wing Attack
- Fly
- Confuse Ray
- Poison Fang

Gengar
- Hypnosis
- Shadow Ball
- Destiny Bond
- Dark Pulse

Snorlax
- Block
- Rollout
- Crunch
- Earthquake

Houndoom
- Sunny Day
- Flamethrower
- Dark Pulse
- Crunch

Feraligatr
- Waterfall
- Avalanche
- Slash
- Crunch
Any recommendations?

I'd keep the Snorlax. :< I'm a big fan of Earthquake, but an in-game Block isn't really necessary unless you are trying to catch the dogs. As for everything else, it looks okay, but since I'm not a big fan of having two of the same type attack on one Pokemon, for Houndoom maybe get rid of Crunch in favor of Solarbeam, especially if you're speedy enough to put up the Sunny Day. Crobat's good, but Wing Attack? btw, Cross Poison > Poison Fang. idk what level it's on though, so that's not my problem. But I can't think of anything you could replace Wing Attack with. Even though Fly takes two turns, it's still a better move than Wing Attack. Maybe go with U-Turn? Not sure if Crobat can learn it, though.

Gengar needs Nightmare and Dream Eater imo. :x But that'd just take up time for in-game, so what it has now is fine too.

U turn is not a bad idea imo. I might just go for it with Crobat. Also, Gengar need a non-ghost type move for those pesky normals that I need to train with. :3

We need a Battle Frontier thread here

Great team ^^ I like the synergy between everything, and the great type coverage. I would fix up your Snorlax a little: Earthquake is fantastic, but Block is not useful with Snorlax, and Rollout eats away your turns. I suggest replacing Block with Giga Impact, a powerful move that can snipe out remaining Pokemon. I also suggest Protect instead of Rollout, so that Snorlax can remain immune while a teammate can take out a supereffective fighting-type with Air Slash on Yanmega or Wing Attack on Crobat (in a double battle, that is).
Yanmega: spot-on perfect.
Crobat: I suggest Mean Look instead of Wing Attack. Fly is a more powerful flying-type move and you could easily trap weak pokemon in.
Gengar: Since Shadow Ball and Dark Pulse are supereffective against the excact same types (Ghost and Psychic), I suggest keeping Shadow Ball for the Same Type Attack Bonus and getting Dream Eater, to destroy opponents you used Hypnosis against =)
Houndoom: Perfect. I like the Crunch/Dark Pulse variation because Ghost/Psychic types can have varying Def/Special Defense.
Feraligatr: Amazing =) great type coverage too.

Hope this helps!

In my opinion, Houndoom doesn't need both Crunch & Dark Pulse, and Crobat doesn't need Fly & wing attack. If your just looking for a team to get you through, you should try have a wide variety of moves. In any case, very balanced and well thought out gameplay team, well done.

I would keep gengar because hes a power full ghost typ and his move set needs a lettle work u really dont need both shadow ball and dark pulse id replace 1 of those with dream eater since u have hipnoses

Nothing wrong with this one. :D

Crobat
- Wing Attack You could use Mean Look for getting Roaming legendaries. Or you could try and trap a ground type in. As long as it doesn't have any Rock moves. You could try Air Slash, mainly hoping for flinch hax, but all in all, I really don't know what to put here.
- Fly
- Confuse Ray
- Poison Fang Cross Poison

Gengar
- Hypnosis
- Shadow Ball
- Destiny Bond Go for Nightmare or Dream Eater.
- Dark Pulse

Snorlax
- Block Body Slam
- Rollout Brick Break? idk
- Crunch
- Earthquake

Houndoom
- Sunny Day
- Flamethrower
- Dark Pulse Either this or Crunch should become Thunder Fang or Solar Beam
- Crunch

Feraligatr
- Waterfall
- Avalanche Ice Punch if you can, but you'll need Battle Points for that. Quite a lot in fact.
- Slash Super Power
- Crunch
Any recommendations?

Comments are in bold. Overall though, not bad at all, you've obviously done this before.

Alright, I pretty much agree with Weavile05, so I'm not going to do a full review, but, You might want to teach Swords Dance to your Feraligatr.

Feraligatr
-Swords Dance
-Waterfall
-Ice Punch
-Earthquake/Superpower/Crunch
