    MILOTIC IS NOT A SPECIAL SWEEPER... I WILL EAT YOU IF YOU TURN IT INTO ONE!

    Milotic@Leftovers
    Trait: Marvel Scale
    Nature: Bold
    EVs: 252 HP / 172 Defense / 80 Special Defense
    - Surf
    - Icebeam
    - Hypnosis
    - Recover

    Standard Milotic - it works very well.

    Skarmory@Leftovers
    Trait: Keen Eye
    Nature: Adamant
    EVs: 252 HP / 252 Defense / 4 Attack
    - Spikes
    - Whirlwind
    - Toxic
    - Drill Peck

    Consider adding in Ninjask to your team if you're gonna use Absol or Heracross
     
    Give Skarmory Rest and abuse it with a Healer XD
     
    I like the idea of having Milotic with hypnosis. So i will change it. But if i added rest to skarmory his main attack would be Drill Peck? And it would make him more of an Annoyer, which is okay with me. Ill considered that.
    Thanks for the help.
     
    Ninjask on this team will do wonders. Seeing that Heracross and Absol have a low speed.

    Without Ninjask - they will probably lose instantly. Ninjask needs this team.

    EDIT: Skarmory needs Whirlwind more than Rest - Rest is optional - WHIRLWIND IS NEEDED.
     
    If I added a Ninjask, which pokemon would I take out? And what would his position be? I would assume, looking at his moves that he would be a baton passer, but thats just my thought.
    Thanks for the help, this is the first time ive ever done this. :)

    About Skarmory: If i added whirlwind, is it still possible to have drill peck? Since they are both egg moves?

    Hits everything in the game for at least neutral damage therefore Aerial Ace isnt needed.

    Heracross - @Choice Band
    Brick Break
    Rock Slide
    Megahorn
    Pursuit/Sleep Talk


    Absorb sleep ad pwn with sleep talk, or kill Gengar and the like on the switch with pursuit, its up to you

    Milotic - @Leftovers
    Toxic
    Ice Beam
    Surf
    Recover


    Good, but in 3rd gen Toxic> Hypnosis, however this is reversed in 4th gen

    Absol- Physical Sweeper (2)
    Swords Dance
    Perish Song
    Shadow Ball
    Iron Tail/Bite/Slash

    I have no idea, but this isnt really good in 3rd gen

    Skarmory- @Leftovers
    Spikes
    Roar
    Rest
    Drill Peck

    Claydoll- @Leftovers
    Reflect/Rapid Spin
    Light Screen/Rapid Spin
    Earthquake
    Ice beam/Explosion

    Psychic has Horrible type coverage

    I need help figuring out items and also if you could, help with movesets, or even, if i need help me change around my Pokemon.

    Changes are in bold, take out Absol and put in a special wall such as Blissey, also you dont need Claydol and Milotic, as both are dual walls and in their place get a special sweeper.


    EDIT: Ive put on the items for you

    Why are everybody giving him 4 gen moveset is he is asking for 3 gen movesets.

    Skarmory@leftovers
    Impish
    252 HP/252 DEF/6 ATK
    Moves:
    -Spikes
    -Roar
    -Drill Peck
    -Toxic/Rest
     
    Okay, so i've updated most of the new movesets, and pokemon. I'm just missing a special sweeper, does anyone have any ideas?
    Thanks.
    Maybe something like Starmie, or Gardevoir?
     
    Manectric@Petaya Berry
    Timid
    6 HP/252 SP.ATK/252 SPD
    Moves:
    -Rain Dance/Quick Attack
    -Thunder/Thunderbolt
    -Hidden Power Water/Hidden Power Grass/Hidden Power Ice
    -Crunch

    NEVER USE AGILITLY ON NINJASK! NEVER!
     
    I like the idea of Manetric, i'll think about some other canidates aswell. The reason i put agaility on ninjask was because some of my team is lacking in speed, and i could use it to help up their speed with baton pass, not to help ninjask.

    But the reason for having Ninjask is to take advantage of his Speed Boost ability, which boosts his speed one stage every turn. Since that boost can be BP'ed, why would you need Agility?

    Last time I checked, everyone else gave 3rd Generation movesets except Lumine. Think before you post.

    Manectric is more useful in 4th Gen - it can learn Overheat ;D
     
    Uh...wow. Staying up til 3 got me up at 2 today, but ah well. I'll give you my skarmory set...

    Skarm (F) @ Leftovers
    Sturdy / Keen Eye
    EVs: 252 HP / 6 Atk / 252 Def
    Impish Nature (+Def, -SAtk)
    - Drill Peck
    - Roar
    - Spikes
    - Rest

    Get a heal beller so you can abuse rest...or something that can learn wish and replace rest with substitute.
     
    I guess you guys are right about the agility. I didn't know he had a speed boost. I have a question about baton pass, does the move only pass the stat that occured before i used baton pass or does it pass on the stat changes after aswell?

    Could you rephrase the question? Watch out for intimidaters like Mence...EVIL. You BP drops in stats too, if that's what you mean.
