    Comments in bold

    I allowed this as its kinda structured. But there are still some issues.

    Right, firstly, 252 evs does the same as 254. So you are wasting evs.

    We do need items, but w/e. Neutral natures suck.

    Remove hitmonlee and Arcanine for things that can take hits, in all honestly they are both dead weight on this team.

    I would also go for starmie >> Gardevoir tbh, as Ape and Gyarados hurt this team alot.

    Also steel wall would be cool >>Hitmonlee and they work well with Mence to cover their fire/ground weak, and the steel wall covers Mences rock weak and Ice weak, mence can also take the fighting attacks steel walls hate. It also helps your team absorb outrages. Bronzong or Forretress would be cool.

    Id also remove Tar or Mence and get a sp.sweeper.

    This team has potential to be decent, but there are some blegh things.
     
    I was thinking of getting rid of hitmonlee for hitmonchan, for its higher defense stats
     
    Hitmontop is the only hitmon that can take a hit at all. That's the one you should use...and even then, I would go for something more bulky.
     
    id say its good just not as good as mine :P
     
    DA:Wouldn't Timid nature work better on Gardevoir? Why not try a BulkyDos (I don't know the EV's and stuff but I got pwnd by one).

    Stockys96:No-one cares about your Uber team filled with hacked ubers. D not post unless you know what you're talking about. It annoys the heck out of people. *sigh...gets burnt for mini-modding*
     
    id say its good just not as good as mine :P

    Yeah that really isnt helpful. Plus, going by the team you posted in the DP section this team would laught at you.

    OP, you do realise that the max EVs that are useful is 252? Those extra 4 you're wasting could be put into another stat, and every little helps :)
    DA's covered most of the stuff.

    DA:Wouldn't Timid nature work better on Gardevoir?

    Nope. Gardy needs a defensive nature for a defensive pokemon.
     
    What about BulkyDos? I mean, he does want a Bulky pokemon and Gyara is powerful as heck so why not. I'd post one up but I don't know natures and movesets but I'll try to think of something.

    Got a set for a Bulky Gyarados. Been looking through my box and found something that reminded me of a BulkyDos. Here goes my first BulkyDos advice.

    Gyarados @ Leftovers
    Adamant/Jolly <200HP/102Atk/152Def/56Speed>
    Taunt
    Waterfall
    Dragon Dance
    Earthquake

    Damn. That's better than I thought. Adamant runs better on this guy. If you're not sure about that EV spread, you can always try this. I found this on the net so it's probably better than my set. Oh well. Here it is:
    230HP/64Atk/180Def/36Spd
