    I'm still missing one pokemon.


    Blissey@Leftovers
    Serene Grace
    Quirkey
    252 HP 252 Sp.attack
    Seismic Toss
    Softboil
    Aromatherapy
    Thunder Wave

    Man these things are annoying! T-wave to screw pokemon, seismic toss to deliver damage, and softboil and aromatherapy to heal. Sp. Wall. Yes, it should have maxed out denfense with a good nature, but I kinda screwed up. IV's are great for HP and Sp. Defense.

    Fortress@Leftovers
    Sturdy
    Impish
    252 HP 252 defense
    Explosion
    Stealth Rock
    Toxic Spikes
    Gyro Ball

    Ka-boom! Spikes activator. Follow up with SR/TS and then Boom! Covers some of Blisseys poor defense stats. Gyro Ball for damage if you need it, and to take SOME sweepers with high speed.

    Dugtrio@Scope Lens
    Arena Trap
    Adamant
    252 attack 252 speed
    Earthquake
    Stone Edge
    Sucker Punch
    Aerial Ace

    Kills unprepared Electric and Fire pokemon. OHKO's Magnezone and traps helpless pokemon. Sucker Punch is more taking out those weak pokemon before they can attack and it kills Alakazam. Aerial Ace for sure fire damage.

    Gengar@???
    Levitate
    Modest
    252 sp. attack 252 speed
    Thunderbolt
    Shadow Ball
    Focus Blast
    Hypnosis

    Not so sure about this one. I need alot of help with this guy. Thunderbolt is for sweeper as is Shadow Ball and STAB. A retreat for no EQ damage as well as Explosion on Bliss. Some people say Focus Blast, I don't. Psychic is more effective. Somebody said once, that a few focus blasts could kill a Blissey, but I honestly think, who would keep a Blissey in while battling a Gengar.

    Eletrivire@expert belt
    Motor Drive
    Lonely
    252 attack 252 speed
    Thunderbolt
    Ice punch
    Cross Chop
    Earthquake

    Mix Sweeper. Covers a large varety of types especially Ground. Basic sweeper. Nothing else notable.


    I need some help on my last pokemon. I was considering another physical sweeper and then something else... What do you think? Here are some posibilities:

    Infernape, Breloom, Gallade, Magmortar, Togekiss, Magneton, Umbreon, Ninjask, Weavile, Mantine, Lapras, Tauntados, Jolteon...

    Those are the ones that first came into my head, but I know there's more. Anyways, please help as much as you can. Thanks.

    get rid of spikes on forretress and replace it with protect or gyro ball.

    you have one physical sweeper (dugtrio), and it can't take a hit and has a choice item. get rid of either zam or gar and replace it with a more diverse physical sweeper.

    milotic evs + nature is bad. you're supposed to use it as a dual wall. it can't take out dragons if it isn't prepared to take hits. Bold nature, 224 HP/240 DEF/44 SP ATK. replace Dragon Pulse for Hypnosis or Mirror Coat.
     
    Gengar@Choice Scarf/Life Orb

    -Thunderbolt
    -Shadow Ball
    -Focus Blast
    -Energy Ball

    There is no need for Dark Pulse and Shadow Ball to be in the same set. Dark Pulse effects normal types which is a good use but Shadow Ball is better on Gengar due to stab. A Scarf Sweeper set would be useful on Gengar or a diverse Life Orb set.


    Milotic@Leftovers
    Marvel Scale
    Timid/Bold
    EV: 252 HP/126 Sp Atk/126 Def
    Ice Beam
    Recover
    Surf
    Confuse Ray/Mirror Coat

    There is no use at all to have Dragon Pulse in the same set with Ice Beam. Milotic has quite a limited moveset but Ice Beam is enough. Timid nature is decent, but it ins't required on a pokemon like Milotic. Though if you already trained it. It can work. =x You could surprise out speed a Salamence. Confuse Ray and Mirror Coat are two interesting attacks that can fit well on Milotic. Also, Toxic is good for consideration.

    Fortress@Leftovers
    Sturdy
    Impish
    EV: 252 HP/ 252 Defense
    Explosion
    Stealth Rock
    Rapid Spin/Earthquake
    Gyro Ball

    You gave it only one attack and you gave it full attack EV's. There's something wrong there. It just doesn't fit well. It just makes it a waste. Having at least two physical attacks aside from explosion would be helpful. It is better to give a pokemon like Fortress HP EV's instead of attack. It is meant to be a defensive pokemon.

    Alakazam@Focus Sash
    Sychronize
    Timid
    252 Sp.Attack/252 Speed
    -Energy Ball
    -Calm Mind
    -Psychic
    -Focus Blast

    Alakazam and Gengar's set is almost too close. I know they are special sweepers and all but they could be diverse pokemon. With Focus Sash, a Calm Mind set helps with Alakazam being a lead pokemon.

    ;O
     
    Ahh... the Gengar

    Gengar@Wide Lens
    Trait: Levitate
    Nature: Timid
    EVs: 252 SATK /252 SPEED/4 HP
    Hypnosis
    Focus Blast
    Thunderbolt
    Shadowball

    Gengar@Choice Specs
    Trait: Levitate
    Nature: Timid
    EVs: 252 SATK/ 252 SPEED/4 HP
    HP Ice
    Thunderbolt
    Shadowball
    Focus Blast
     
    Alright. I'll get rid of alakazam and Milotic but for what... How about Ninjask and Infernape? That gives me 2 walls, 1 sp.attack sweeper, 2 attack sweepers, and a BPasser.

    I've heard that Fortress is a pretty poor rapid spinner. I'd probably go with:
    Gyro Ball
    SR
    TS
    Explosion
     
    Sorry for double posting, but I need this up to the top.

    What is the point of Focus Blast on Gengar? Psychic is much more effective. Anyways, I'll update the first post with edits.

    Focus Blast effects more types. Also Psychic is kinda useless without stab. D;
     
    Focus blast takes out these things called dark types...yeah. It pretty much hammers TTar...if you can get an attack off b4 getting OHKOed, a very big "if." still, focus blast is a must IMO. Also, you can always just make a new thread...I learned that the hard way.

    EDIT: And psychic's type coverage really stinks...
     
    true... Ok, Focus Blast it is. Should Gengar have Hypnosis, or should I replace it for something?
     
    Gengar really should have hypnosis IMO. Keep it, and wide lens helps it and focus blast...
     
    Ok. There is one thing you must tell me: What the heck does IMO mean????
     
    Hehe. Yah, I knew that. *Not really* I was trying to figure it out, but I'm an idiot. So, an other advice?
     
    Well, I decided to go against Milotic, but maybe.

    Thanks for the help guys.

    Edit: For my last two pokemon, I was thinking of Electivire. Maybe not Lapras, because I'm not totally sure what it is designed for and all, but maybe...
     
    Lapras@Life Orb/Lefties/Shell Bell
    Adamant Nature
    EVs: 252 Speed, 252 Attack, 6 HP
    ~DD
    ~Waterfall
    ~Return
    ~*physical attack*
     
    Return? Just wondering, but why? Shouldn't I max its HP too?
     
    Lapras...I'm no good at it. I don't know jack about its physical movepool, so I put return as a filler. It has only 60 base speed, but all that HP makes it a great physical tank. Somebody else can give you a much better set and EV spread. It can also boltbeam.
     
    Ok, forget Lapras. I don't even know why its BL. I can't find any good moveset. It doesn't have the right moves to be a wall.

    Edit:
    What is a good nature/EV's for Electivire? I was thinking a physical Sweeper Electivire, but maybe not.

    Electivire@Choice Band?
    Adamant
    252 attack 252 speed?
    Cross Chop
    Fire Punch
    Ice Punch
    Thunder Punch
     
    But it gets heal bell in XD, can PHaze, maybe haze (not sure) and has good stats. That's why it's BL. Do you need a Vire set?
