    Ok here's a composite team made up of my favorite/shiny pokes, it's not quite complete so a few filler sugestions would help. I just want some assesment and a few tips now I can rebreed the normal pokes but the shinies will have to stay the way they are nature/EV wise but the movesets can be modified, I haven't decided on a lead, I was just using a Cacturne I caught with the same movest as it had but I dumped it.

    So in no particular order:


    Starapter@ Silk Scarf(need better)
    Lonely
    I didn't keep track of EVs but there are bout 50/50 Atk/Sp

    Brave Bird
    Close Combat
    Facade(should I switch with Return?)
    Roost

    My Favorite shiny pokemon, I never bothered to check her IVs or keep track of her EVs because I didn't have wifi at the time and she was the first pokemon I encountered after getting the pokeballs. I can switch roost with another attack and make her pure sweeper,I've been using her for revenge kills and late game sweeping. On a side note she took out Garchomp,Ryhyperior, and Blaziken on her own when I ran out of backups. 1HKO'd the Chomp too I was impressed

    Manectric@???
    Quirky(once again shiny so can't change)
    252/262 SpA/Sp

    Flamethrower
    HP Rock
    Thunderbolt
    ThunderWave

    Meant to be special sweeper, didn't have a better move to replace Twave with, would hyperbeam work as a desperation move in 4th slot?


    Kingdra@?????
    Bold
    252/252 Spa/Sp

    Dragon Pulse
    Ice Beam
    Surf
    Focus Energy

    A 2nd Special Sweeper, I can change him around and breed for a better nature and HP type, I think it was water.

    Hippowdon@leftovers
    Impish
    252HP,200 Defense, remaining in SpD

    EQ
    Ice Fang
    Stealth Rock
    Slack Off

    Physical Wall, I'm very proud of him he was a breeding project to see if I had the patience for chain breeding and he ended with 20+ in all IVs except speed which was low but I plan on cursing it away anyway. I could replace Ice Fang with yawn to try and phaze an opponent or just keep it for coverage



    Those are what I have at the moment, I'm trying to decide on a special wall right now, I could use Milotic or Slowking but with Kingdra and I have a Floatzel I'm thinking off making a Physical sweeper butdon't really want the grass/electric weaknesses, I'll probly lean towards Slowking though, any thoughts?

    Shinies are trophies, don't use them if it means bad IVs and using a Quirky nature. Ever.
     
    I checked Manectrics IVs before EVing him and it was 31 Special attack and 29 speed which is how he ended up here
     
    And Quirky offsets that.

    Also Cursing Hippowdon isn't going to work. go go go Curse up! Out comes Starmie! Go go go run away Hippowdon! Snorlax is way better at that and my negative thoughts about curselax should tell us that Curse Hippowdon is really terrible. It's cool as a novelty but Hippowdon has way better things to be doing.

    Kingdra is also all messed up. Focus Energy Kingdra is just hop[ing luck will come through for you, which means that it will be a dead weight if luck isn't on your side (more often than not). also I have to wonder why it has a Bold nature.
     
    That was my bad I'll rebreed or scrap him, he's got 30 SpA IVs thats what I recall about him, I wanted to take advantage of Sniper so that's why Focus energy was there, for Hippowdon would it work with yawn replacing curse? I haven't had him in a battle yet so I was just making his set based off of looking over his moveset and picking what I though was best
     
    Stealth Rock or Roar for hippo's last slot. Luck-reliant strategies are really terrible though, including Flinch Hax togekiss and Focus Energy/Sniper Kingdra.
     
    K I'm thinking I'll go for SR then I could use some entry hazards
