    I like to use pokemon that i feel like have become my favorites they all aren't at lvl 100 yet i don't go as fast as other people. Anyway I'm not entirely sure if the pokemon on my current team has moves to use strategy at the moment but planning on some but here's my team.
    Weavile
    Return (strong Bond and high attack stat ooooooh scary)
    Ice Beam
    Dig
    Night Slash

    Crobat
    Air Slash
    Wing Attack
    Fly
    Cross Poison

    Marowak
    Bonemerang
    Endeavor (using Focus Band leaves 1 hp and then use endeavor on opponent)
    Double-Edge (Has Rock Head ability so neutralize recoil)
    Fire Blast (Good against two of three weaknesses Ice and Grass)

    Lucario
    Aura Sphere
    Dragon Pulse (Just use for power and in case of fighting against Dragons)
    Shadow Ball (Helps with Psychics and Ghosts)
    Extremespeed

    Floatzel
    Aqua Jet
    Crunch
    Blizzard (for any annoying grass types)
    Surf

    Leafeon (still training to see if it has any other moves before using tm's and no strategies planned yet)
    Magical Leaf
    Razor Leaf
    Synthesis
    Quick Attack

    Weavile has low Bond? IDk what you're talking about according to the footprint master and that girl in the fan club i have the highest rating or response for the game. Weavile specializes in its attack stat Return is at full strength from bond so Full bond + high stats should deal some damage but I'm not looking for an arguement. I also kind of know about how Leafeon has poor sp. atk stat but I don't go around trying to get the *perfect* evee to evolve. but any other suggestions you can suggest what attacks i should replace but not willing to replace all of their attacks. Also it shouldn't be all that hard to get a relationship with a pokemon especially when you get the message and spa available.

    You. Need. EVs AND NATURES.
    Post them.


    Weavile
    Brick Break
    Ice Punch
    Aerial Ace
    Night Slash
    1. Special Attacks suck on Weavile
    2. 2-turn attacks (especially the ones that make Earthquake do 2x damage) are also horrible.


    Crobat
    Substitute
    Aerial Ace
    Hypnosis
    Cross Poison
    Do not use 2, or should I say, 3 of the same type of attack =/

    Marowak
    Bonemerang
    Stone Edge
    Swords Dance
    Fire Blast
    I'm leaving Fire Blast due to lack of better fillers. And Marowak should ALWAYS be holding Thick Club.

    Lucario
    Hidden Power (Fire)
    Dragon Pulse
    Stone Edge
    Close Combat
    Needs more mixed Lucario okay

    Floatzel
    Aqua Jet
    Crunch
    Ice Fang
    Waterfall
    Special Attacks suck on Floatzel too

    Leafeon (still training to see if it has any other moves before using tm's and no strategies planned yet)
    Swords Dance
    Leaf Blade
    Synthesis
    Baton Pass
    Hey, did I mention Sp. Attacks suck on Leafeon too?
    This is one horrible of a team. You need to learn more about Competitive Battling.

    Changes in bold, and a team of all sweepers fails, a team of all Physical sweepers fail even more

    EDIT: Damn Iceman beat me, oh well
     
    Well I'd be able to learn more if i got the chance to actually get involved in battles with actual ppl more. I guess I overthink my move selections too much and this might be the result. If I don't feel like Leafeon will fit I might go back to what I had before or the original grass typ i had. Before Leafeon I had Parasect we all know how bad against fire it is and flying but knows giga drain, spore, X-scissor, Aromatherapy. Or my Roserade that's my highest grass but for some odd reason I don't like to be too regular or common.

    Weavile
    Return (strong Bond and high attack stat ooooooh scary)
    Ice Beam
    Dig
    Night Slash

    Fine, it has high bond, but its BASE bond is low. Also, Special Moves? Are you kidding me? Go with Ice Punch or at least Ice Shard. And Dig? Nononono. Think of something else (X-Scissor or Poison Jab works).

    Crobat
    Air Slash
    Wing Attack
    Fly
    Cross Poison

    Fly? No. Never ever use Fly. BTW, you have 3 Flying moves, so....THINK OF SOMETHING ELSE.

    Marowak
    Bonemerang
    Endeavor (using Focus Band leaves 1 hp and then use endeavor on opponent)
    Double-Edge (Has Rock Head ability so neutralize recoil)
    Fire Blast (Good against two of three weaknesses Ice and Grass)

    Fire Punch > Fire Blast. Earthquake > Bonemerang.

    Lucario
    Aura Sphere
    Dragon Pulse (Just use for power and in case of fighting against Dragons)
    Shadow Ball (Helps with Psychics and Ghosts)
    Extremespeed

    A Special Attack over Extremespeed.

    Floatzel
    Aqua Jet
    Crunch
    Blizzard (for any annoying grass types)
    Surf

    Blizzard? No. If Floatzel can learn Ice Fang (I'm not sure), then go with that.

    Leafeon (still training to see if it has any other moves before using tm's and no strategies planned yet)
    Magical Leaf
    Razor Leaf
    Synthesis
    Quick Attack

    Magical Leaf? A Special Attack? On Leafeon? No. Use Leaf Blade. BTW, you have 2 Grass, wait, no 3 Grass Moves. You can keep Synthesis and Leaf Blade, but that's it.

    OK, you have no walls. Just Sweepers. And out of these Sweepers, you have 1 Special. Wow. I don't mean any offense, but...man, I thought MY team was bad.

    well if you all think it's horrible i'll change my team a bit and do double battles. I'm taking out Leafeon and I'll take out Crobat once i get other pokemon I want to replace with trained. And I would also like to say I am not sure of the terms "Sweepers" and "Walls" I don't know those kind of refrences.
     
    Meh, all I can do is repeat what others have already said so eloquently. A team of all sweepers will be destroyed with ease, especially a team that isn't EV trained. Also, you shouldn't bother with Return unless it's on a Normal-type Pokemon (for STAB).

    While I'm here, I'll explain a few of the terminology around here.

    Sweeper: A fast Pokemon that deals heavy damage, but has poor defenses. High speed, high Attack, low defense.

    Tank: A Pokemon that can take a few hits, and dish out damage as well. Decent Attack, good defenses, poor speed.

    Wall: A Pokemon designed to take hits, and essentially to stop an opponent from doing anything altogether. HIgh HP, High Defense/ Sp. Defense, average Attack, poor Speed.

    STAB: Same Type Attack Bonus. Refers to the 1.5x boost given to moves when used by a Pokemon of the same type (i.e. Lucario using Close Combat, Empoleon using Surf, Weavile using Ice Punch...)
     
    I miss when people actually did research before posting a RMT. :/
    Yeah, so do I. Personally, I think that "24 hour to post EVs and Natures" rule needs to be established more and I also think it should be lowered to 12 hours =/

    Before Leafeon I had Parasect we all know how bad against fire it is and flying but knows giga drain, spore, X-scissor, Aromatherapy.
    Parasect it HORRIBLE, and I can think of a ton of reasons besides the fact that it has a 4x Fire AND a 4x Flying Weak.

    - Horrible Speed
    - Slightly Below Average Attack
    - Horrible Typing
    - The fact that it doesn't get a Physical Grass Attack (there is Bullet Seed, but who on earth uses that lol)

    Parasect only functions properly on Trick Room Teams, and its only purpose would be to abuse Spore since it's useless at everything else.

    Or my Roserade that's my highest grass but for some odd reason I don't like to be too regular or common.
    If you don't want an overused Grass Attacker, then I think this may help you:

    Jumpluff @ Leftovers / Wide Lens
    Ability: Chlorophyll / Leaf Guard (doesn't really matter)
    EVs: 248 HP / 8 Atk / 252 Spd
    Jolly Nature (+Spd, -SAtk)
    - Sleep Powder
    - Leech Seed
    - U-Turn
    - Substitute
    This is basically the only useful Unused Grass Type I can think of. But he makes an excellent Sleeper with such great speed. Put them to sleep, then Leech Seed them. U-Turn to deal damage before switching out. Wide Lens is optional if you want Sleep Powder and Leech Seed to have better accuracy.

    If you want to deploy an offensive command, Victreebel and Sceptile also make decent attackers.
