    Blaze of Kin (Whatever that means)
    Blaziken@Salac Berry (The one that increases speed?)
    Flamethrower
    Earthquake
    Sky Uppercut
    Protect

    Protect is for 2v2. When my Groudon uses EQ Blaziken uses protect. Next turn groudon will attack the poke that is the most hazardous to Blaze or itself.
    Currently I'm talking about 2v2 movesets.

    Groudon@berry that increases Attk
    EQ
    eruption(thinking of replacing)
    solarbeam
    hyper beam

    Why does Blaziken have earthquake then if Groudon is the one using it? I suggest a flying pokemon or a levitating one instead. Get rid of Hyper Beam on Groundon, it is a horrible attack because of the two turn thing. Instead of Eruption, use a fire blast or flamethrower. Instead of Sky Uppercut use Brick Break. I don't think you really need a salac berry on Blaziken, because you don't need speed. Maybe Scope Lens will work better for its excellent attack power. Umm, there are more things to be fixed but that is all I will say for now.
     
    Your Groudon has too many power moves. You should put in some basic strike moves [what I call average PP average power moves].

    Also, those charging/recharging moves? blaha?

    Blaziken's pretty good, but what's the point of having two team members with earthquake?

    EDIT: GAH! I knew someone would post before I was finished typing mine up?
     
    Blaziken has salac berry cause its sorta alow. BTW what should I replace Hyper Beam with? Oh! I forgot to mention their personalities:
    Blaziken:HASTY
    Groudon:BASHFUL

    put hyper beam on Blaziken, to make use of his high attack. some people may disagree, but i just wiped out a 10 level higher Walreign in battle tower w/ 1 hyper beam from Blaziken. So it should be:
    Blaziken@scope lens
    Overheat/Flamethrower/Fire Blast
    Sky Uppercut
    Hyper beam
    Protect

    Groudon@?Leftovers?
    EQ
    Bulk Up
    Overheat/Flamethrower/Fire Blast
    Slash/Hyper Beam

    I'm sorry, but Solarbeaming Groudon sucks, and once Forsty gets on he'll say the same thing. One of those 2 should hav Overheat, since thats the only special type move they hav, and even though it lowers sp. att., it won't matter cause u only need it 2 inflict horrible damage once, and u can clean up w/ another move. 4 the other, if u like accuracy go w/ Flamethrower, if u like power, go w/ Fire Blast.
     
    Blaziken- [atk or speed + / sp.atk ] @ salac berry
    EV: Atk and speed
    -endure/sub
    -reversal
    -overheat
    -rock slide

    Hyper beam = may the next guy please kill me in one hit, or use the time to dragon dance one turn then kill me. Plus it's pretty pathetic for a move that misses one turn. Average power of hyper beam per turn is just 80 (or was it 70?), which is less than Return. Protect is only for stalling, which you really don't need to.


    Groudon- [speed + / sp.atk- ] @ leftovers/lum berry
    EV: Atk, speed
    -swords dance
    -earthquake
    -rock slide
    -fire blast/overheat

    Dance up, sweep away...

    One more solarbeaming Groudon in this summer in this forum = new sticky saying "all Groudon user read this"
     
    that hazer is only useful in that sense if it's a 2vs2... otherwise, a simple switch will work the same way. Plus, you won't need more than 1 overheat most of the time anyway. Reversal/salac will handle the rest (unless there's QA cough)
     
    QA is actually everywhere... Almost all Flygon has it somewhere. Extremespeed is of course a lot better, but it's highly limited to just Linoone, Rayquaza and Arcanine (stupid move hoggers)
     
    not if u follow my example and "breed" moves through an Action Replay.
     
    I like QA more. For some reason on NB, a Pokemon of mine with ES gets paralyzed and it always 'fully paralyzed'. I've never seen a Flygon use QA yet. ANd Linoone and Rayza can be killed easily can't they?

    If you don't want people using Solarbeam on a Groudon, why don't you stick that in the Battling Guide of yours? Although I don't know who would even bother reading that 3 pages essay. Certainly not me anyway.
     
    Definately not me, which is obvious, based on my strategy. U should shorte it and i'll consider it. Deamonchaos, i just can't get used 2 ur new avitar. It doesn't fit u. I liked the Hitman avitars. and sorry bout callin u demonchase, every time i saw the car avitar it made me think of a car chase and i said demonchase.

    I've also noticed that. Paralysis seems to be more effective in NetBattle. I've averaged fully paralysing opponents six turns in a row. If I'm up-to-date with Pok?mon statistics, there's only a 6.25 per cent probability of that occuring! You may want to contact Masamune with some log examples if you have any.
     
    I wouldn't have any. I disabled the logging option after the first 10 times. It was getting annoying having that thing pop up after each battle.
     
    you can have it auto log without that thing popping up ^_^; I always thought that paralysis is 50% anyway... Meh. I got used to it.

    Rayquaza is easily killed (that's why it's useless). Linoone however can always belly drum/sub abuse, or even add on flail to it... and if you try to QA it to stop flail, it ES you instead to greatly damage your QA-er or even knock it out.


    As for my guide, it's already 10 times shorter than the guides in gamefaq, and therefore I consider it too short. But just that at the moment I'm too busy to further add on some stuff. If you mean to break it down into a few posts, then that's just unfair in terms of double posting. What's the point of me to tell everyone else to stop double posting, when my own guide contains 10 posts from me? So I tried to add as much as I could into one post, and only double posted when it exceeds the character limit (which is annoying)
     
    Based on all that stuff this is my moveset:

    Blaziken@salac berry
    Endure
    Reversal
    Overheat
    Bulk Up

    Groudon@shell bell
    EQ
    Sword Dance/Bulk up
    Fire Blast
    Slash

    Does Blaze learn Endure and reversal from move tutor?
     
    endure/reversal is an egg move, and I'll suggest replacing bulk up with rock slide, or HP Ghost to hit ghost types immune to reversal for Blaziken.

    Groudon with slash is jsut terrible... change it to return at least, or just stick in any physical move your team is lacking.
     
    Kyogre with physical moves? NEVER EVER EQUIP KYOGRE WITH PHYSICAL MOVES!!I'm not yelling either. I'm just trying to make it dramatic.

    Kyogre@leftovers
    hydro pump
    ice beam
    calm mind
    thunder
