    Infernape (♀) @ Life Orb
    Ability: Blaze
    EVs: 4 HP/252 Atk/252 Spd
    Lonely nature (+Atk, -Def)
    - Close Combat
    - Flare Blitz
    - Stone Edge
    - U-turn

    I'm debating with myself as to whether I should trade in U-turn for Thunderpunch. The strategy invovled here would be to use U-turn if against a Pokemon with a potential Water attack, and have it absorbed as i switch to Vaporeon. I hope it works. :|


    Vaporeon (♀) @ Leftovers
    Ability: Water Absorb
    EVs: 252 HP/126 Def/130 SDef
    Calm nature (+SDef, -Atk)
    - Acid Armor
    - Baton Pass
    - Surf
    - Wish

    Infernape uses U-turn, Vaporeon takes the drink. BP the Acid Armor over to Blissey. Whew! Teamwork is tough!


    Blissey (♀) @ Leftovers
    Ability: Serene Grace
    EVs: 200 HP/252 Def/58 SAtk
    Bold nature (+Def, -Atk)
    - Charge Beam
    - Flamethrower
    - Ice Beam
    - Softboiled

    Softboiled was supposed to be Rest, but I gave it some thought. I dunno what else to do with this. Special Sweeper. Has great potential. :D


    Swampert (♀) @ Leftovers
    Ability: Torrent
    EVs: 252 HP/252 Atk/6 Def
    Relaxed nature (+Def, -Spd)
    - Roar
    - Earthquake
    - Avalanche
    - Surf

    Avalanche is so great on this. But I'm thinking of giving it a +Sdef nature instead. Hmm...


    Skarmory (♀) @ Leftovers
    Ability: Sturdy
    EVs: 252 HP/252 Def/4 SDef
    Impish nature (+Def, -SAtk)
    - Roost
    - Stealth Rock
    - Whirlwind
    - Aerial Ace

    Everyone knows what this is.


    Kabutops (♀) @ Life Orb
    Ability: Swift Swim
    EVs: 4 HP/252 Atk/252 Spd
    Adamant nature (+Atk, -SAtk)
    - Waterfall
    - Rain Dance
    - Rapid Spin
    - Rock Slide

    "Life Orb and Rapid Spin?? WTF?!"
    I'm sure that crossed your mind. It's supposed to be a Sweeper / Spinner. May replace LO with Lefties.


    I tested this team on Shoddy. It pwned one team, then got pwned by another. Okay. Ready? Set? Rate. :D
     
    I just don't trust a SP.sweeping Blissey. Too novelty.
     
    I haven't exactly worked the bugs out of this team yet. Although I have decided to keep U-turn on Infernape. Vappy takes most of Infernapes weaknesses quite well; even enough for a Wish to get through.

    BTW, I lol at myself for not knowing how to use Stealth Rock. I though you had to lay down multiple layers just like Spikes. *bangs head on keyboard*
    I've learned. I know how to use it now! Greetings! I am newbie! :D

    I also wanna see if Flame Wheel or Blaze Kick would do nicely in place of Flare Blitz. The recoil Infernape took was just too much for me. :/

    Kick, yeah. Not Wheel, or Bronzong walls ya.

    EDIT:Wait, you have Combat, whoops.
     
    I'm pretty sure I'm walled by Bronzong anyway. It doesn't seem to matter whether the thing has Heatproof or Levitate, I doubt I can OHKO it. 2HKO, maybe, provided that Infernape survives the oncoming Psychic. Ouch...

    And I wanna replace Kabutops. Whatever it is my team lacks, I'd like that to replace her. (It's a cleric, I'm guessing.)
     
    Well, hello there, Phoenix Wright!

    Blissey's my novelty Special Sweeper. It's just too much fun to think she's actually capable of Special Tanking. =]

    As for cleric... Meganium maybe? She's very mixed-tankish, too.

    Meganium @ Leftovers
    Trait: Overgrow
    Calm(?) Nature
    - Aromatherapy
    - Leech Seed
    - Grass Knot
    - Earthquake

    now I'm stuck with no Spinner... ,,,(__),,,
