    First of all, this team is made for BT. Also, I'm looking for a third pokemon, and I'm considering Claydol. So yeah, this is my Battle tower team:

    Weavile @ Focus Sash
    Pressure
    Jolly
    6 HP/252 ATK/252 SPD
    -Night Slash/Faint Attack
    -Brick Break
    -Ice Punch/Ice Shard
    -Swords Dance

    This is a common Swords Dance Weavile. Swords Dance on the first turn, and hang on with Focus Sash, then sweep. I just need help on deciding which is better for those two moves up there, that best suits the BT.

    Breloom @ Toxic Orb
    Poison Heal
    Adamant
    6 HP/252 ATK/252 SPD
    -Spore
    -Focus Punch
    -Seed Bomb
    -Stone Edge

    Basic Spore-Puncher combo. Seed Bomb is for STAB, and Stone Edge is for flying types. Toxic Orb acts as Leftovers, since I have Poison Heal.

    Claydol @ ???
    Levitate
    Bold
    252 HP/114 DEF/144 SPD
    -Reflect
    -Earth Power
    -Ice Beam
    -Explosion

    Pretty simple, I guess. This is a Physical wall for my team. I don't know which item to give though. Earth Power is for STAB, Ice Beam is for Dragons, and Reflect is for support. Any opinions?

    --

    I guess this is it then. Looking for advice and changes to be made. Thanks in advance! =D

    2 Brick Breaks have the same power as one Focus Punch.

    2 Sky uppercuts are Stronger than one Focus Punch.

    My point is... Focus Punch sucks
     
    IT should be noted (at least in 3rd gen) that focus punch only takes up one turn. Otherwise, it would have no point.

    It should also be noted that 99% percent of competitive battlers don't obsess over what they think is great in the 3rd Gen.

    Focus Punch is great with Spore.

    Faint Attack sucks.

    Weavile likes Jolly with Punch and Adamant with Shard.
     
    It takes 2 turns. Charge up the first turn and strike the next.

    Its very risky but Brickbreak/Sky uppercut take two turns to do same or more damage

    No, it goes first, even b4 protect, to tighten its focus. After all pokemon attack, then it goes last on the same turn to inflict damage. Otherwise, focus punch would be like fly b/c you could switch out/in on it, but you can't.
     
    That's why when used properly, it is a force *coughbreloomcough*

    EDIT: Nice to have ya back, Purfugly
     
    Unless the first post was editted, all the EVs were used.

    114
    144
    +252
    510
     
    Grass, dark, ghost, ice, water, bug...lots of weaknesses, and shadow and energy ball attacks are common, so yeah, light screen.
