waht Shinespike was here??? man I'm not ussually one like this but I'm glad she got banned ( i wonder If I'll get warned for this? Hoping not).

I still prefer Garchomp over Heracross. Garchomp has the speed and it seems to have more possibilities. Heracross has a fairly standard moveset and basically has to be choice scarfed for our team as we do need speed. Its been an on going problem lately.
 
Talking about the best team ever without mentioning mine? ;)

Anyway, the team so far is Metagross, Garchomp, Claydol, Ludicolo, Milotic. You know what comes to my mind when I see that? The names in green have a weakness or are neutral to grass. Only Metagross can survive a grass type. I see a TricKazam, a Gengar, hell, even a Tangrowth running physical wall thwarting this team. My suggestion is a Honchkrow, or a Gyrados.

Honchkrow can cover for most grass weilding sweepers in the terms that they have a weakness to one of his types. He has a good moveset and a2 abilities that rocks. On one side he could be hypnosis/spore/sleep powder resistant, totally demolishing a couple pokes, or he could get really lucky. Combined with his Nasty Plot on his 105 Sp. Atk or Choice Band his 125 Attack, he can cause some serious damage. Not too bulky, however it has the potential to withstand 4 Seismic Tosses.

Gyrados can not only cover for most physical sweepers with his deadly Intimidaite ability, but also has a 100 base Specs. Defense to boot. He can stop a TricKazam in a single hit, DD up in the switch aftermath, and rage against the team in full throttle. He has a 125 Atk, like Honchkrow, but benefits from having a resistance to Fire, Water, and taking neutral from Ice, and being able to take a few hits. Once a DD Gyrados gets off the ground, there's no stopping him!

:D Hope that helped.
 
Hey, you stole my closing line! Thanks for the imput. When more people come, we can discuss.
 
Milotic and Gyarados make quite the duo. :cool:

With Garchomp and Claydol who are immune to electric attacks it could work.

If Cema thinks Honchkrow is cool, Punishment shall research and read up on the emo bird.
 
I hear very good things on Cema.
 
Nasty plot really doesn't go on honchcrow in my book but it has some great stats. I prefer it over gyarados for one reason and one reason only, the dark type. It has immunity to ground and psychic, and it has a resistance to grass, ghost, and dark. It has 2 weaknesses, but also 2 immunities. That's why I like it more.

Ahem, emo right here.

Taunt DDGyarados is scary. It stops Skarmory in its place from Spikes and Roost and that stuff @_@
 
hmm I've never really used a honchkrow, but if you even bother watching cema's battle vs. me. you can tell that he destroys me xD

I haven't been here but are we now apposed to the togekiss idea *shoots self for keeping asking*
 
Not a lot of anything will outrun an alakazam. I don't thinks we should add that in when choosing a pokemon. I will start the vote

Honchcrow~1
Gyarados~
 
I vote Gyarados. Obvious reasons.
 
Damn, I forgot, Electrivire usually has Ice Punch.
 
So now it's

Honchcrow~2
Gyarados~2

And if it's any consolidation, my max defense and hp donphan just got whiped out in one hit from a honchcrow without a critical hit.
 
You guys really need to look at our electivire weakness also. The only thing we can counter it with is if our garchomp outspeeds its ice punch.

Well Claydol can play charades with Electrives. XD

Gyarados...has my support.
 
Wait, who was Gyarados replacing?
 
so, um what happened to Togekiss again. Anyways, My vote gows to Honchcrow. We need a Special Attacker (peers at Espeon and Glaceon...) and Honchcrow has a better chance of pulling it off. Plus I like its type combo better.
