Six Smeargles, and you do not have my favorite Smeargle of all.

Smeargle @Salac Berry
Spore
Endure
Endeavor
Seismic Toss/Quick Attack/Extremespeed

Endure the enemy's hit, get your Salac boost, then put the enemy to sleep. Endeavor the opponent down to your HP level, then finish them off with your last move.

Replace that with your second one. It's by far the worst Smeargle on your team. Even with Max Special Attack EVs, a Modest nature, +6 Special Attack boosts, and a Petaya boost, it's Sp. Attack will only be 760. That's pretty pathetic. And it's not like your first Smeargle will survive long enough to pass even one Tail Glow.

My favorite old school Smeargle.

Smeargle @ Leftovers
Mind Reader
Spore
Mean Look
Sheer Cold

Put the opponent to sleep, trap them, and 2HKO them.

They have more counters these days though. *cough* Phazers

Not to be rude, but what kind of noobs do you battle that would leave their Poke in against Smeargle after it has been put to sleep, in order for you to trap it the next move?

My guess is this is in-game, and since no one switches and there's no sleep clause, you can essentially beat the entire game with a team of Smeargles.

Oops. Thanks, AB. My wish is that in DP, GF/Nintendo will give a personality model to the trainers, similar to what they did in the Battle Frontier, specifically the Battle Factory. Some trainers use stat-boosters, some are defensive-minded, some take advantage of the weather, and so on. Plus, they need to mix up when/if trainers utilize their items. Right now you can easily predict when they will, so you can cheat by using a lower damage move first and then a powerful one after that. Like the personalities, they need to add a randomizer where some trainers will work hard on keeping their Pokes HP up, some not so much, and maybe some not at all. Of course that will probably require too much code, but one would think since they aren't upgrading the graphics too much that the DS would be able to handle it. Here's hoping.
