I like that a lot (although I don't know exactly WHEN to use Substitute), but I'm playing Platinum, I don't have HH or SS, so he can't have Headbutt. Alternative?

Stomp works for the flinch rate.

1. Registeel seems to be good with Iron Head, Thunder Wave, Earthquake and Explosion. Why did you suggest Stealth Rock? What purpose does it serve?

Damages the foe upon switching. Its THE best move in the game, period. https://www.smogon.com/dp/moves/stealth_rock <--click there.

2. How exactly does the Curse Talker Registeel work?

Curse up to get att and def boosts, Rest when weak and nail things with Iron head and Sleep Talk so you can attack whilst asleep.

3. Would having Charge Beam, T-Bolt, T-Wave, and Ice Beam be a bad combination? I would have chosen S-Toss but it can't learn it....Is this set too many Electrical attacks?

Yes, Regice NEEDS Rest and Sleep talk to be effective. Its a special wall and if it cant heal its really rather useless.

4. If you did put together a moveset for Regirock, could you give me at least a few suggestions for what it might be?

I gave you a link in my previous post and explained which one you should use. o_o

Just to clarify, My Regirock has the highest Atk, Regice has the Highest Sp.Atk, and Registeel is equal on both. (So why use Iron Head instead of Flash Cannon?)

For the flinch rate Iron Head has with Thunderwave and so you can beat things its supposed to i.e Mismagius who will just lol at Flash Cannon due to its immense SP.Def.

@ above, Dusclops wants Max hp /176 def / 80 s.def @ Bold. Pathetic HP needs Maxing, ALWAYS you gain more of an overall def boost this way. Seismic Toss or Night Shade/Will-o-Wisp/Rest/Curse or Sleep Talk

Ya i was thinking something like that...YOu dont think The whole Trap Status idea would work? ANd i wasnt going for tons of HP because of the Painsplit factor(Although i think rest is a better option.
 
Alright, so how does this look?

Regirock w/ Leftovers
-Stone Edge
-Earthquake
-Stealth Rock
-Explosion

Regice w/Leftovers
-Ice Beam
-Thunderbolt
-Rest
-Sleep Talk

Registeel w/ Leftovers
-Iron Head
-Curse
-Rest
-Sleep Talk

Regigigas w/Leftovers
-Stomp
-Earthquake
-Substitute
-Thunder Wave

Is it bad to have two Curse Talkers?
 
It's bad to have four Pokémon weak to Fighting and with absolutely no type synergy at all.

I understand that it's a Regi-themed team, but please.

Type synergy? What the hell are you talking about?
 
My dear, the Regis don't complement eachother with their types at all. At most Regirock resists Fire for Regice and Registeel, but that's it. Like I said, I understand this is a Regi-themed team- which probably isn't competitive. And if it isn't competitive, there's really no advice anyone can give you; just use what you think will be more fun.

heres one pokemon that could absolutely crush your entire team anti lead champ (machamp)
substitute encore dynamicpunch payback would absolutely destroy that team

plus its taunt bait -.- and i think most ppl have at least 2 taunters (mine are gyarados and aerodactyl)
 
Alright, so just use the same overpowered pokemans as everyone else. You got it boss.

If I'm reading that the way I think its supposed to be read (and I think I am) people use "overpowered" pokemon because they are strong and effective. Regigigas is terrible. I assumed that team was for in-game or not serious competition.

No one told you that, but if you want to be stupid and interpret it that way, please do so.
And to be honest, yes, if you want to win, I'd recommend you start using some good Pokémon- or at least Pokémon that work together and don't share a very blatant weakness. If you're doing it for the "lulz", you shouldn't care if two CurseTalkers work together or not, since you're not playing to win anyway.

Look, no one is going to force you to use Overused (NOT overpowered) Pokémon, but if you want to win, you have to use what's best. If you don't mind losing and is playing just for fun, then I'm sorry but that's not what this thread is for I believe.

I'm actually trying to build a sandstorm team featuring Regirock (or possible Registeel) right now. I even restarted a Sapphire game to get the right nature for one.

That said, it's pretty obvious to someone building a team with these pokemon that there's an ever present weakness to fighting type with all four of them. No need to have sour grapes for someone pointing that out to you; no team featuring all four of them has much of a chance. I'm having trouble justifying even having Regirock on my team because of his fighting type weakness, honestly.
 
My Sandstorm team needs some SPECIAL.

HelllOOO!!!! Poke'community! Iv'e been working with my sandstorm team for a while, and it's been working GREAT! HOWEVER I notice i'm lacking any options against physical walls like Skarmory and other Bronzong. Does anyone have any ideas for special attack power? I play OU tiers, so I deal with the big threats. My team is on my trainer card.

Thanks.

That should help you.
 
A few questions about NU Pokemon:
Can Dunsparce use a Choice Scarf like Jirachi?
Flareon / Glaceon for a NU Vappy?
Any good CMer Besides Gardevoir and Espeon?
Charizard = NU Moltres?
Any good DDer which is Dragon type? (Dragonair/Shelgon?)

I probably sound stupid but I aim to make a balanced NU team (hopefully it'll work for me, because I suck at making balanced teams.)
Also what's a good lead that can get SR up? I'm thinking about Slash since he can spin too.

Dunsparce is more like an NU Togekiss, Paralyze, then Flinch to death.
Grumpig is a good calm minder.
Charizard can be like moltres I guess, can't run SubRoost as well, because the lack of pressure makes it harder to stall.
Dragonair or Shelgon are the only NU DDers that are dragon type. Dragonair is faster, Shelgon is bulkier, take your pick.

Sandslash or Armaldo are good SRers that can spin as well.
 
I want to stick SD/Agility Kingler onto my team, but I dunno who to kick.
I have
SR+Spin Slash
Wallclops
CM Gardevoir
NP Ninetales
Trick Furret
Whiscash

I really want Kingler to be on my team, but I dunno who to kick =/.
