No, i mean what kind of team does he want to make? (offensive, stall, ect.)
 
I'm looking for a stealth rock Pokemon, that would fit in among sweepers. Any Pokemon acceptable. I thought of hippowdon, is he any good? I have a tyrannitar in my group as well.
Would it be better to sub off a tyrannitar due to sandstorm affecting a Gengear, weavile, salamence and starmie?
Or do the positives of a (possible hippowden) and tyrannitar cancel out the negatives?


Azelf is good. So is Hippo, Aero, Tar, but its hard to say which one is good unless we know the other 5 pokemon on your team.
 
Can someone help me with movesets for.
Typhlosion
Noctowl
Magnezone
Red Gyarados

Thanks.


Typhlosion has a scarf set:

Typhlosion @ Choice Scarf
Rash/Modest Nature
80 Att/ 252 SpA/ 176 Spe
-Eruption
-Focus Punch/Focus Blast
-Fire Blast
-Hidden Power [Grass]/[Rock]


https://www.smogon.com/dp/pokemon/noctowl

those are the only really good movesets for Noctowl. Its a pretty useless pokemon.

https://www.smogon.com/dp/pokemon/magnezone

there are too many movesets for Magnezone, so just pick the one you like the most.

https://www.smogon.com/dp/pokemon/gyarados

same thing goes for Gyarados.

Sorry for the title, I had written something else but I got an answer.
I'm too rushed to get pictures so sorry if it looks like an eyesore. As you can see alot is copied from seribii, but I'm looking to see how I can balance my team more and replace some pokemon if needed.
Thanks

Well, you won't know much because its level 1, so if you just EV train it up to like level 10-15 and keep track of how many EVs it has gained, it should be more accurate.
 
I'm fairly certain that Scizor doesn't get Dragon Dance :S The CB set usually runs Pursuit|BP|U-turn|Superpower, so you could probably run that.
 
I'm making a team, and I know what Pokemon I will use I just dont know what stats to train them for.

Zapdos - Sp. Atk/Speed
Milotic - Sp.Def/Undecided
Snorlax - Sp.Def/Def
Rapidash - Undecided/Undecided
Tyranitar - Undecided/Undecided
Linoone - Speed/Attack

Please help me decide!
 
hey there guys. need a good moveset for a lead drapion please. ev's may be suggested :)
 
I would like suggested EV's, nature. and a moveset for: ARCANINE with "Howl & Morning Sun". Thank you.

While I'm at it, Assist sets for Weavile and Infernape as well. If possible.

Arcanine@Life Orb
120 HP / 252 Att / 136 Speed
Jolly Nature
Trait : Intimidate
- Howl / Thunderfang
- Morning Sun
- Flare Blitz
- Extremespeed

Beats + Speed Venusaur and Blaziken. Consider Thunderfang however as you are walled by Stuff like Omastar, Cloyster, Kabutops and any other bulky water otherwise i.e Slowbro. It also nails Moltres etc.

Spikes supports this set fantastically.
 
Since Somgon is down, EV's, Nature, Moves, for an Extremespeed Dragonite?

There are 3 which work decently and aren't inferior to mence.

Dragonite@Choice Band
Adamant Nature
252 Att / 6 Def / 252 Speed
- Outrage
- Extremespeed
- Fire Punch
- SuperPower

Thats what i use and it works very very well. Idea is to soften up all the steels with Fire Punch and SuperPower early game and then spam Outrage. Extremespeed is a potent revenge killing tool doing 80~% to frail sweepers such as Infernape and about 54-63% to Mence and Gyarados.

Dragonite@Life Orb
Quiet Nature
252 Att / 240 S.Att / 16 Speed
- SuperPower
- Draco Meteor
- Fire Blast
- Extremespeed

Anti Lead/MixNite. 180 speed for Tar, Skarm, meta and all that other stuff that hovers around that area. Feel free to invest a lil more though. Id prolly stop ~30 speed evs.


Dragonite@Life Orb
Adamant Nature
252 Att / 6 Def / 252 Speed
- Dragon Dance
- Outrage
- Extremspeed
- Aqua Tail / Earthquake

This works ok too. It cant hit steels well but dragon + water covers pretty much everything in the game for at least neutral and is only commonly resisted by Empoleon. A DD LO Aqua Tail does ~45% to Skarmory which is cool considering its pretty weak. Extremespeed with a DD LO boost picks of frail and scarfed junk. Use Magnezone to weaken steels though for this to be effective.
