    I say Groudon, and charizard. charizard is immune to earthquake, gains bonus from groudons ability, and mixed with STAB,, and its own ability its flamethrower is very strong. charizard also can learn a good variety of moves, like dragon claw, etc. Charizard helps groudon by getting rid of ice types, while groudon gets rid of rock types, and cancels out water's 2x weakness to both. these 2 have very good stats btw and complement eachother very well.
     
    Even though this is a poll, this goes in one of the pokemon boards, not here! Same thing happened with your other thread. Learn.
     
    so is ne1 gonna suggest ne? i didnt ask 2 move it b/c i thought u would neways, and if u tell by time diff, both were made right afa eachtoehr, so i made the 2nd 1 b4 u moved it, so i couldnt have known. anyways now i do so letz get back 2 topic! =)
     
    If you ask me, a 2v2 team should be able to function with moves that work together. Like, swaggering a slower partner with a berry to cure confusion (forgot the name, sorry ^^"), then the partner doing earthquake or something like that. Unless other members of the team can gain an advantage from sunny day, such one chlorophyll based grass with solarbeam and synthesis, this combo doesn't seem very special.
     
    There is no one best team (if there was, everyone would use it, and the game would become boring fast). 2 v 2 is a lot more fast paced than 1 v 1, because people like to use tactics which involve Explosion. Well, why not when you can take out 2 Pokemon by sacrificing one?

    Other tactics involve Destiny Bond (Gengar is famous for this), Earthquake and Surf (hit both opponents at the same time), Protect (PP wasting while your partner attacks, or to protect you from Earthquake/Explosion), and of course use of weather effects, mostly on Groudon or Kyogre. Exeggutor and Groudon make a nice team, Exeggutor immediately getting the speed to sweep from Drought, while Groudon makes for a good physical tank and sweeper combo.

    Of course, there are plenty more things you can do in 2 v 2, but the best way is to battle and find them out for yourself.
     
    or of course, ditch 2vs2 battle and go 1vs1, as 2vs2 is the junk (yay for focus fire where all tanks die in 1 round, and jumpluff/bandactyl sweeps all!)

    The main reason for Protect if you suspect the foe will target the same pokemon.
    Riiiight... and how many times can protect save you from helping hand + choice band + STAB Rock slide + 30% flinch? Good game.
     
    either way dont u think charizarda and groudon make a great team? some may say moltres or ho-oh to replace charizard, but to me charizard learn a diff variety of moves
     
    You're team is good. I alwasy like using dragon/flying in my 2on2 teams, but I really like putting Umbreon and Espeon together, mainly because they work well together.

    yeah, they are great!
     
    a) don't double post, but use the edit button

    b) Charizard + Groudon = it's ok I guess... with heat wave and earthquake immunity, charizard is ok, but then x4 rock weakness is just terrible... It's asking for Aerodactyl to rock slide you. Plus, it's an ubar, so of course the strategy comes out ubar as well. A good trainer shouldn't need to rely ubar-cheapso stra... Aero-pluff all the way!
     
    wuts the aerodactyl, jumploff combo u keep talking about
     
    hmm has anybody ever tired the plusle and minun combo?
    i know its 2 electric type but them 2 pokemon must be good for something
     
    Plusle and Minum. Ah, a good idea that never works in practise. For one, as soon as you see them both on the field at the same time, you immediately know what you're going to be facing (Rain Dance + a volley of Thunder attacks, boosted by the Plus and Minus of the electric rodents). It's pretty much all they can do, poor Pikachu wannabes that can never quite live up to the yellow one.
     
    Lanturn/Jolteon are much better... either way you die to earthquake, but this team actually has a chance to stop the earthquakes before it hit. Jolteon can unleash HP Grass to stop some earthquakers, and Lanturn finishes off the slower earthquakers that Jolteon has weakened already. Rain dance with double thunder healing is always nice too. Lanturn got surf to make things absolutely terrifying as well, being a hit-all move.

    Which makes me wonder why I mentioned protecting when both target the same Pokemon. In this case, it would be one opponent attacking BOTH your Pokemon. Totally different scenario ^^
    You know, I wish people would stop focusing so much on what the opponent can do to you, and more of what you can do to the opponent.

    So what can you do against an opponent who will always hit you first, unless your name is electrode or ninjask (since Deoxys is banned). Sure you can always use quick attack, mach punch or extremespeed, but as if that can stop Aerodactyl.

    There's always the 50/50% risk of Jolteon hitting Aerodactyl first... that's the best you can do already.
