    I havent touched any of them because i wanna know the best way to set them up before i do anything with them and if u have any ideas who i could use for my 2 open slots plz let me know

    Movesets, Natures, and such?
     
    AND Express them as in their full evolutionary stage. Like Riolu to Lucario, don't say team so far, just plan it with us
     
    Well for a start, Adamant is the worst possible nature to have on Porygon-Z. Modest or Timid is better.

    Yuppers. and modest on gallade aint so hot either. Modest for scarfed pory Z...really, it depends on the set you give it. If you'd post the sets, we could help much more. You have nothing besides blastoise that can take a hit...meaning you need some walls.
     
    Here's a good PZ set:

    Porygon-Z@Choice Specs
    Timid Nature
    Trait: Adaptibility
    Thunderbolt
    Ice Beam
    Tri-Attack
    Hidden Power [Fighting]/Shadow Ball

    Trait: Adaptibility
    Thunderbolt
    Ice Beam
    Tri-Attack
    Hidden Power [Fighting]/Shadow Ball

    Dark Pulse over Shadow Ball
     
    Porygon-Z
    Modest@Leftovers
    EV's: 252 Spd, 252 SA, 6 HP
    ~Download
    -Thunderbolt
    -Ice Beam
    -Tri Attack
    -Nasty Plot

    With his great Special Attack, PZ can get some nice hits in, especially with STAB Tri Attack which hits most Pokemon with neutral damage. He'll be even more of a challenge after you apply Nasty Plot.

    Gallade
    Adamant@Scope Lens
    EV's: 252 Atk, 252 Spd, 6 SD
    ~Steadfast
    -Close Combat
    -Psycho Cut
    -Leaf Blade/Night Slash
    -Swords Dance

    Pretty much the same as above, but a Physical variant. I don't see a problem with using Scope Lens myself, but if you or your opponent are, I'd replace it with Leftovers or Expert Belt.

    Lucario
    Rash@Life Orb
    EV's: 252 SA, 252 Spd
    ~Steadfast
    -Luster Cannon
    -Aura Sphere
    -Dragon Pulse/Dark Pulse/Shadow Ball/Psychic
    -Me First

    I kind of like this set myself. The first two for STAB, and the third spot is best determined by looking at the weaknesses of your teammates. Me First can also be pretty handy for surprising opponents. I remember when mine took out a Metagross by copying Earthquake, XD. Because Me First could copy a Physical attack, I put Rash instead of Modest. In my experience anything able to hit Lucario usually OHKO's it, so Defence isn't much of a priority anyways.

    Blastoise
    Bold@Leftovers
    EV's: 252 SD, 252 Def
    ~Torrent
    -Mirror Coat
    -Counter
    -Surf/Aqua Tail
    -Ice Beam

    You'll need Emerald to get Counter, first off. But it you can, this guy can dish out some damage. His defences are great, and he can absorb many attacks. He should be able to withstand a non-STAB'ed Thunderbolt, so he can shoot it back in the opponent's face.
     
    .. Modest on Porygon-Z WIthout Agility without Salac Berry without Choice Scarf is complete suicide. After setting up the Nasty Plot, you will be forced to switch when anything with a base speed over 100 comes out and glares at you. Leftovers is horrible on Porygon-Z

    Scope Lens IS a hax Item :P but Scarf Gallade is now the best

    Gallade@Choice Scarf
    Trait : Steadfast
    Moves :
    - Stone Edge
    - Psycho Cut/Leaf Blade (Psycho Cut for Weezing and Leaf Blade for Swampert)
    - Close Combat
    - Night Slash

    Who came up with those sets? Smogon apparently. Really, blastoise can't attack...or attack WELL anyways. Restalk blastoise is really pretty sad too...though it's usable at least. Just don't use the attacking sets, or you WILL get burnt. Blastoise is a UU defensive pokemon for a reason.

    Yeah. I said at the end of the post it's Smogon.. It was the only resource I could find..

    Blastoise @ Leftovers
    Trait: Torrent
    Bold/Relaxed Nature
    - Surf
    - Ice Beam
    - Rapid Spin/Mirror Coat..
    - Yawn/Haze/Protect. And that was on my own... Protect to.. Well it's pretty obviosus. To Stall, wasn't it? Yawn to last awile like Protect, and Haze to eleminatee Stats changes that OHKO Blastoise.. Rapid Spin for a Spikes/Stealth Rock/Counter.. Surr for STAB. Ice Beam for Grass Type coverage...

    the set has a few moves edited out...but IMO, that's the best set for blastoise. there are a few good ones...as good of a resource as smogon is, those were bad movesets...but yeah, standard is good for blastoise.
     
    ROFL!! Smogon gave that moveset for Gallade? LOLOL!!

    Of course, that works too.

    For gallade, there's either status gallade or scarf gallade. You choose. Leaf blase is a cool addition though.
     
    Going Leaf Blade = ALWAYS go Stone Edge

    I go for cool points, which is my ultimate downfall in battling. But leaf blade is nice if nothing you have beats swampert, though gallade is no swampert counter.

    Curse=Stall time for Swampert. But then he could just Ice Beam you for the heck of it.
