Ice Weaknesses

[sims796]

I'm looking at my team, feeling proud, but I see a major weakness to Ice. Now I'm not so confident. Here they are, with movesets.

Noctowl-Light Clay
Nature:Modest
Hypnosis
Reflect
Whirlwind
Air Slash

Meh, I like Noctowl. And I figure that with Stealth Rock, it could be useful.

Vileplume-Black Sludge
Nature: Calm
Sludge Bomb
Energy Ball
Aromatherapy
Stun Spore/Toxic (Most likely Toxic)

Vileplume's my favorite. It isn't going anywhere. Besides, as said before, it could be a good cleric.

Golem-Hard Rock
Nature:Brave
Earthquake
Stone Edge
Stealth Rock
Rock Polish/Sandstorm

I'm really not so confident in Golem, but, still, I like to battle with those I use in the game. A replacement (Other than Rhyperior) would also be nice.

Raichu-???
Nature:Modest
Thunderbolt
Grass Knot
Nasty Plot
Brick Break

I feel I did good on Raichu. With Nasty Plot, Grass Knot, and Thunderbolt, I figure it could really help. Brick Break, I feel, should be replaced, but I'm not sure with what.

Gyarados-???
Nature:Adament
Earthquake
Ice Fang
Waterfall
Dragon Dance

Sampson said I did good with this moveset, so I keep it. If one has something better, great.

Torterra-???
Nature:Impish
Wood Hammer
Earthquake
Stone Edge
Synthesis/Leech Seed

Torterra I am very proud of. Now, I feel that it should have a healing move, but should it be disruptive, or just pure healing? With all this Tyranitar an it's damn Sandsteam, maybe Synthesis won't be as good, but still...

And for my backup-

Roserade: Heat Rock/Damp Stone
Nature:Timid
Rian Dance/Sunny Day
Weather Ball
Sludge Bomb
???(Some grass move, maybe Solar Beam?)

Like I said, I like using Poke's from my game. I also don't feel like breeding for Leaf Storm, so if their's another suggestion, then that'll be great.



If anyone can suggest better movesets (or a replacement for one of my pokemon) to help deal with Ice types, then that would be perfect. But Torterra, Vileplume, (and probably Noctowl), I'm not getting rid of. Thanks you very much.

Get some Psychic pokemon.

An Infernape could rip apart your team theoretically. A Lucario even. Your team is the problem, not the movesets.

 

[sims796]

Now, I figured Gyarados can handle Infernape with Earthquake, and Lucario would get hurt by this as well, (& maybe Torterra could also handle Lucario), but I'm still scared of ice types.

If anyone has any advice on who should be switch. Except for Vileplume, Raichu, & of course, Torterra.

So, can anyone help?
