    So I think my team is going to look something like this:

    1st: Galvantula w/ Compound Eyes & Focus Band

    -------> Sticky Web / Thunder / Bug Buzz / Volt Switch (Or energy ball?)

    2nd: Skarmory w/ Sturdy & Rocky Helmet

    -------> Roost / Spikes / Stealth Rock / Defog

    3rd: Gengar w/ Shadow Tag & Gengarite

    -------> Perish Song / Taunt / Protect / Disable

    4th: Snorlax w/ Thick fat & Leftovers

    -------> Smack Down / Crunch / Rest / Sleep Talk

    5th: Gyarados w/ Intimidate & Life Orb

    ------> Dragon Dance / Aqua Tail / Bounce / Stone Edge

    What do you guys think of it?
    I still need a special attacker, I was going to do Scizor but that's another physical, and unneeded. It would probably be good for something with Fire

    I DONT want Legendaries in my team. Thanks!!!!

    sorry if i keep posting in the wrong section....

    I'm thinking about Goodra w/ Assault Vest

    ----> Draco Meteor / Fire Blast / Sludge Bomb / Dragon Tail

    If you're using this team mostly for in-game, then I wouldn't recommend teaching moves such as Spikes, Stealth Rock, and Defog. Perhaps I would keep Stealth Rock, but would definitely replace the other two. As for which you could probably go with, my suggestions are Brave Bird and Steel Wing. Both are great attacks, and cause heavy damage to your opponent; I'm sure you'll enjoy using them!

    For special attacker, I'd probably go with Hydreigon. It does have four-times weakness against fairy, yes, but its Special Attack stat is very high, and has access to a range of moves to take decent advantage of it, such as Dark Pulse, Fire Blast, and Draco Meteor. With this on your side, you shouldn't have much trouble taking opponents down. I've used it before, and it has always managed to satisfy me. Personally, I love utilizing it, haha.
     
    I want to get into it competitively. I'm already done in-game. I've been breeding and ev training, so i want to make sure i have a good spread for whatever team i face
     
    Ah, okay, I get you. :) If that's the case, then your Skarmory is perfectly fine. One thing I would rather do is modify Gyarados a bit, so that it would be able to perform better overall. First thing is replacing Aqua Tail with Waterfall; latter has better accuracy, I believe, so you wouldn't have much trouble striking your opponent. Alongside, it could also flinch your foe, which is a plus. Then, I'd swap Bounce with Earthquake. With this move, you'd be having a wider range of coverage.
     
    I think I'm swapping defog with brave bird, because I need coverage against fighting type, and the defog will get rid of my spikes as well, which isnt want i want. And I was actually considering swapping spikes for whirlwind and keeping the stealth rock instead... But i'm not sure. That way i might be able to set up a team mate and do some entry damage on opponents as well.

    And i'm pretty sure i've decided on Goodra as my special attacker. It covers everything that I lack, but the thing that sucks is that I'm relying on it to hit Fairy and Dragon types hard, however it's also has a 2X weakness to those two types specifically. So if I were to try to take out a fairy with my sludge bomb, I might end up dying instead, due to lower speed...
    I wonder if it would be good enough to have a Timid nature, have a 31 IV in it, and invest 252 EVs in it. That would give me a 145 in speed, but would that be worth it?

    And also, I would have to breed Gyarados in B/W in order to get the move Bounce, and don't want to do that, so I'm already doing Earthquake instead

    I've also decided to replace Crunch for Heavy Slam on my Snorlax. It can easily check any fairy it comes across, and even Xerneas weighs under half as much as Snorlax does. It's much more useful.
