    Well yeah... I need to beat the E4 to get the National Dex... then I'm catching a ton of dittos and getting ready for D/P (assuming i get it... lol) but I'm having trouble with a team.
    I only want 3 pokes, and i just don't want it to suck. Its going to be totally ingame and all it has to do is beat the E4, nothing impressive.

    Blaziken
    Docile Nature (No effect) Yeah, i hate it, but I really don't want to restart or anything.
    Some EVs in spec attack. I didn't count, and all he has to do is beat the E4...
    -Flamethrower
    -Need a fighting move, i don't want to waste brick break.
    -Slash because i don't remember what else i usually do
    -And another move.

    Yeah. I don't like him, but he works on the E4 and i just don't want to change him.

    Ludicolo
    Sassy Nature (-speed, +spec def) I'm a speed hater... It works in game because I'm high enough level wise to have more speed anyway.
    Some EVs in Spec attack. Well a bunch, but i didn't count.
    -Surf
    -Giga Drain
    -Ice Beam
    -Dunno

    Weezing
    Brave Nature (-speed, + attack) Yeah. Speed hater.
    Some attack EVs...
    -Sludge Bomb
    -Tackle
    -Thunderbolt
    -Shadowball

    Yeah... I needed some ghost type move for the E4 (well, i wanted one anyway, and thats the whole reason for the team) and Weezing was pretty cool, so i picked him. Even with a little extra attack EVs, he sucked at Norman's gym, so if i change someone, i'd like to change him.

    Crappiest team on Earth, but all it has to do is beat the E4, then its sacked for a better team. Just need some pointers on moves and help with the last spot really. All i want to do is beat the E4. I've done it a ton on Ruby, but i keep restarting Emerald, so i'd like to just stick with this game. So yeh. It sucks, help@@@

    And look at my D/P future team =DDDD

    I must stress that Medicham with a STAB fighting move and Shadow Ball takes on the bulk of RSE E4.
     
    Hopefully you have a Female Blaziken so you can breed it.

    Blaziken
    Adamant [+Atk, -SAtk]
    - Bulk Up
    - Overheat
    - Rock Slide
    - Sky Uppercut

    After the E4, when you have enough BP to get it, replace Bulk Up with Swords Dance. Rock Slide you can get by breeding it with a Bale Camerupt (Lv 33+).

    Ludicolo
    Modest [+SAtk, -Atk]
    - Leech Seed / Razor Leaf
    - Ice Beam
    - Rain Dance
    - Surf

    Be sure it has Swift Swim.

    Weezing
    Impish [+Def, -SAtk]
    - Pain Split
    - Sludge Bomb
    - Will-o-Wisp
    - Filler

    Since this is Emerald, I dunno about the last slot for a Shadow Baller.... I guess Banette or Dusclops would be your best choices.

    Nah... male blaziken so i can't do much about the nature, but its fine, just have to beat the E4, then hes sacked. Thanks for the Ludi help, i think hes swift swim, so i'll go for raindance when i get it.
    Also, thanks for the weezing help. Hes Koffing right now, but kinda sucks really, so i'm debating whether to keep him at all. I suppose I'll keep him unless i can find a replacement.

    I don't really like Medicham though... kinda wierd...

    Thanks for all the help!
     
    Since this is Emerald, you can't get Medicham unless you can trade. If you can, definitely:

    Medicham
    Adamant [+Atk, -SAtk]
    - Brick Break / High Jump Kick
    - Return
    - Shadow Ball
    - Filler

    He beats 3/5 of the Elite 4 by himself. For Drake and Wallace:

    Starmie
    Modest [+SAtk, -Atk]
    - Ice Beam
    - Recover / Psychic
    - Surf
    - Thunderbolt

    So yea.

    I just had another idea. Since Shadow Baller is for Phoebe and she likes to use Protect, you could always use a Vigoroth for her, and let it evolve when your done. Trust me, having the opponent Protect while you have Truant will lose you some battles. :/

    Slaking
    Adamant [+Atk, -SAtk]
    - Earthquake
    - Return
    - Shadow Ball
    - Filler

    Just keep him as a Vigoroth until you get past Phoebe.
