Magnezone doesn't counter Blissey. The only reason a person would put Explosion on Magnezone is because

a) They have a crap Hidden Power and/or
b) They're using it as a last resort move because they are about to die anyways.

No one is going to waste a ton of Attack EVs on Magnezone just to OHKO something they shouldn't even bother with.

Why would you want a third Steel type? Besides, Steelix already counters Electivire. It easily survives two Earthquakes/Cross Chops.

Also, Dusknoir is a terrible lead. Lead with Salamence.

252 HP and the rest depends on your nature. For instance, if you use a +Def nature, focus on Sp. Def EVs. If you use a +SDef nature, focus on Def EVs. Don't put all your EVs into one stat though. Save some for the other defense as well.

Why Relaxed nature? Careful/Impish please.

[shadow_ki6]

i might go with careful

do u see any other major weaknesses in this team

*coughelectivirecough* sure, my fav steelix counters it, but if it is gone, electivire=instant win for the opponent. At least heracross doesn't totally stampede over this team...and gengar can do a number to your team too.

 

[shadow_ki6]

ok ill replace specsmence with alakzam so that i can counter herocross and gengar xD

Nononononononononononononononononononononono. As aragorn said, a counter has to be able to SWITCH IN to the opponent. Zam is OHKOed by Gar's shadow ball and heracross's megahorn/stone edge/everything lol...but yeah, Zam is NOT a counter for the two.

 

[shadow_ki6]

then wat pkmn can counter both

 

[Anti]

A mixed wall...not really anything I csan think of now...good luck w/ that...

No Pokemon can counter both Gengar and Heracross.
But Blissey easily counters Gengar.

The only two Pokemon that can counter Heracross (specifically CBCross) are Gliscor and Weezing. However, you don't need them if you can predict correctly.

Dusknoir is immune to Close Combat and survives two Megahorns. You just have to watch out when you use Will-o-wisp, because if Heracross gets Burned, your whole team is dead meat. Just be sure that your opponent doesn't have Heracross before you use WoW.

[sims796]

What about Dusknoir? He hasn't the defences (and WoW) to stop them cold?

Oh wait, no WoW, I forgot, Guts...

 

[Anti]

That's why heracross is so tough to counter. USe separate pokes to counter the two. Blissey walls ALL special attackers, except maybe azelf w/ nasty plot...but still. Gliscor is my fav hera counter...

 

[shadow_ki6]

but the thing is i dont know anything about gliscor can anyone give me a gliscor build please

 

[Anti]

It's a physical wall, with AA...that's all I can give you, I failed w/ gliscor, so somebody else would be better here...
