    Corrections in bold.

    I'd like a team. So far the pokemon I have for it are Gengar and Dragonite. Movesets:

    Gengar@ Wise Glasses
    ~Modest
    ~Levitate
    Moves:
    -Shadow Ball
    -Sludge Bomb
    -Destiny Bond
    -Focus Blast

    Dragonite@ Muscle Band/Leftovers
    ~Adamant
    ~Inner Focus
    Moves:
    -Dragon Dance
    -Dragon Claw
    -Stone Edge
    -Earthquake

    Any suggestions? (movesets aren't 100%, I'd still like some help with that if you think it needs improvement.) I'm thinking about putting in an Infernape. I did, after all, hatch over 30 Chimchars until I got a Jolly one.

    I like Gengar because he's a fast Destiny Bond. Sludge Bomb for STAB and Focus Blast hits a larger variety of steel-types than does Thunderbolt(Steelix nullifies it and Magnezone is resistant). For Dragonite, Stone Edge is simply a better move than Fire Punch, and hits a larger variety of ice-types(especially those water/ice-types). Earthquake for Rock/Steel-types.

    I hope this helped, PM me if you have anymore questions.

    I don't get online often, and when I do, I'm on for a while for I thought I'd post my Pearl/Diamond team and see what people think. Actually, I really would like criticism for people who's been in the WiFi battle scene and can give a few pointers. I would rather not you exchange out the pkmn, as these are my favorites, but unless you see it's absolutely necessary, feel free.

    Pursuit(Have thought about switching this with Stone Edge, because of the high critical hit ratio, or Baton Pass)

    Lopunny@Leftovers
    Impish Nature
    EVs: 252 Def, 252 SDef, 6 HP
    Ability: Cute Charm
    Return

    I've recently started raising a few others, including Milktank, Kangaskhan and Scizor, but as you can see, I use more than 6 and switch so I'm never the same battle twice. I didn't list all of my battle-ready pkmn, but these are the ones I use most often. Definitely, you don't have rate all of them, and I understand my EV spreads are the basic 252/252/6, but I'm more comfortable with them that way.
     
    Hey everyone. Trying to decide on a team, but I'm having some trouble. Here are the Pokemon I currently have bred and team-ready. Also, don't worry about having to explain EV spreads and MS to me, as these are already done.

    Alakazam - TrickSpecs
    Garchomp - Standard w/ Life Orb
    Spiritomb - SP DEF w/ WoW
    Milotic - Hypnosis/Recover
    Togekiss - Paraflinch
    Pineco (soon to be Forretress) - Spiker/Stealth Rocker, Rapid Spinner

    I want to use two Special Sweepers on my team, not sure if that's a good idea. Probably Alakazam/Togekiss and Milotic, or any combination using only those two. The one thing I DON'T like though is being BoltBeamer weak. :/ I don't really feel like getting a Gengar or Starmie though, or Porygon-Z.

    For a Physical Sweeper, the only one I know of so far is Garchomp. I have NO idea who to use next, and it's driving me crazy. I was thinking Infernape for a SkarmBliss counter and was wondering, how well does it do against Weavile? Also, I was considering Metagross for helping countering Zam's counters, but am hesitant because I dread getting one on Emerald for possibly using Thunderpunch.

    Since I have two sweepers of each kind, I'm guessing that's ok, that I need a Spiker and then maybe a support Pokemon. I was going to try Forretress and if that didn't work out, I'd use Skarmory. For a Supporter of some sort, I was possibly considering Umbreon. Anyhow, sorry for the some-what lengthy post, and thanks for reading.

    I've got a team in mind but would someone mind seeing if I have any glaring weaknesses? I don't, but then again I've never played a real battle so I'm not sure if I'm missing something important.

    Blastoise (with Mirror Coat)
    Tyranitar (with Dragon Dance)
    Ninjask (Baton Passing speed to Tyranitar)
    Infernape (Scout and anti-Skarmbliss)
    Vaporeon (Hazer and Acid Armor Baton Passer)
    Slaking (Tank)

    I'm assuming you have at least 2 pkmn with Earthquake, right? (Tyranitar/Slaking?) A strong Electric/Fighting-type may prove formidable, like Electivire or Machamp for example. If it has Max Atk and Spd, it might catch Tyranitar off guard with a good 4x Cross Chop. Even Vaporeon who passes Defense can't take a critical hit from a Cross Chop. Maybe a strong Psychic-type? Like Zam, or Grumpig?

    Well actually I have Tyranitar and Blastoise with Earthquake. I'm trying something different. So Vaporeon is no good? Because I really like that pokemon, and I from what I've read every team needs a hazer.

    I didn't say Vaporeon wasn't good, was just saying even if it passes defense to Tyranitar, critical hits ignore stat boosting and Cross Chop that both Machamp and Electivire can learn has a high critical hit ratio. Was just saying, be prepared for a strong physical sweeper.

    Can't go wrong with..

    Mewtwo @ Leftovers
    Modest Nature
    EVs: 6 HP, 252 SAtk, 252 Spd
    Ability: Pressure
    Psychic
    Recover
    Aura Sphere
    Calm Mind/Shadow Ball/Special Filler(i.e., Ice Beam/Thunderbolt/Flamethrower)

    I say Shadow Ball or special filler because of other Psychic-types and Spiritomb. Watch out because Bug-types are a bit stronger with Yanmega and because Scizor can actually use Bug-type attacks(with Swarm and Max Attack, X-Scissor may OHKO Mewtwo). Hope this helped! Private message me if you need help.

    I'm very fond of Water-types, though I kind of felt they were kind of ignored during the 4th Generation. I'm not requesting an entire team, just good individual pkmn, though feel free to post a team if you so please. This is what I have so far..

    Empoleon @ Leftovers
    Modest Nature
    EVs: 252 SAtk, 252 SDef, 6 Def
    Trait: Torrent
    Surf
    Grass Knot
    Stealth Rock
    Ice Beam

    Tentacruel @ Black Sludge
    Calm Nature
    EVs: 252 SDef, 252 Spd, 6 Def
    Trait: Clear Body
    Haze
    Rapid Spin
    Toxic Spikes
    Barrier

    Slowbro @ Leftovers
    Bold Nature
    EVs: 252 Def, 212 HP, 44 SAtk
    Trait: Own Tempo
    Surf
    Slack Off
    Calm Mind
    Psychic

    My starter, my favorite Utility water-type and a Bulky Water. I usually use 8 pkmn, so I can switch out depending on my opponent. I like the OU, like Gyarados and Milotic, but for a mono-type team to work, it needs to be able to work around its weaknesses, so it's plain to see Swampert, or any Water/Ground is a necessity, and I'm a bit of a Ludicolo fan. Help is greatly appreciated!
