Hey everyone. Here we go, I REALLY don't know who to use as a starter, but anyway, here goes.
Forretress @ Leftovers / Lum Berry
Relaxed
252 HP / 252 DEF / 6 ATTK
~Explosion
~Gyro Ball
~Spikes (Most likely to be replaced by Stealth Rock)
~Rapid Sin
Forry, a pretty nice Pokemon. Not original, but blah. Yes, before you say anything, I know that MOST of the time, 252 / 252 EV spreads suck. I designed this Forry how it is because on a previous team, it needed the defense, so I pumped all of the remaining EVs into HP. Will probably replace Spikes with Stealth Rock, unless I can find another Pokemon to set up Stealth Rocks. Now, 6 ATTK EVs isn't the best for explosion, but it has proved useful. Rapid spin...well...for rapid spin. Has a lot of nice coverages.
Alakazam @ Leftovers / POSSIBLE Lum Berry / ???
Timid
252 SP. ATTK / 252 SPEED / 6 HP
~T-Wave
~Taunt/Knock Off
~Recover
~Psychic / HP Dark / Shadow Ball
Ooh boy! Not your everyday Zam! I wanted to make a new team, and I was really sad at the idea of taking Zam off, but then I forgot about this kinda' set. Blissey? Mwaha! Taunt + Recover is mainly for Blissey, but Knock Off sounds REALLY nice. Use this badboy to paralyze Pokes and get out. Not sure how this would actually work, but I'm lovin' it in "theorymon." Probably will go with Psychic for STAB.
Clefable @ Life Orb
Magic Guard
Modest
252 SP. ATTK / 188 SPEED / 68 HP
~TBolt
~Ice Beam
~Flamethrower
~Grass Knot
Yesh yesh. I like the idea of being able to use Lifeorb and not taking any recoil damage. Aside from that, I wanted to give the Pokemon a shot. Clefable has a very nice amount of possible movesets, so unless my opponent lands on the money with their guess about mine, it'll do some nice damage. The only thing I'm worried about is how reliable it is. Maybe I could replace one of the moves (either Grass Knot or Flamethrower with Softboiled).
Vaporeon @ Leftovers
Bold
202 HP / 252 DEF / 48 SPEED
~Wish
~Surf
~Toxic
~Yawn/Protect/HP Electric
Yay for Vaporeon! In case someone wants to do some fire damage to my Forretress, I send in this Poke. However, I'm a little confused about it's moveset. Wish is great for team-healing, Surf for STAB, Toxic to wear down certain Pokes, but the fourth slot is giving me some problems. Yawn to force switches, Protect to scout and help in conjunction with Wish, and HP Electric for Skarmory and Gyarados. The speed EVs help with Skarmory, but if it's not that big of a deal, eh. Covers for Forretress.
Gallade @ Expert Belt / Leftovers
Adamant
252 ATTK / 148 SP. DEF / 108 HP
~WoW/Hypnosis/T-Wave
~Night Slash
~Psycho Cut
~Close Combat
Gallade seems nice, so thought I'd give it a try. In me previous team I was hurting for a psychic counter, and I think Night Slash fits just fine. For the status move, I'm not really sure. I like the idea of T-Wave, and yes, while I know Zam already has it, I get paranoid. WoW would REALLY help against physical attackers though, and hypnosis is fun as well. Someone please help there.
Garchomp @ Life Orb
Jolly
252 ATTK / 252 SPEED / 6 HP
Swords Dance
EQ
Dragon Claw
Fire Fang
Standard Chomp. This is really just here for the meantime because I couldn't think of another physical sweeper at the moment. Fire Fang would stay though since Clefable is packing Flamethrower. If not, it'll be using Fire Blast instead of Fire Fang. Maybe an Adamant, Choice Scarfed Garchomp would be nice.
