So I've been going with Ariados and Plusle to start. Set up sticky web and toxic spikes with Ariados and paralyze with Plusle. Either that or if I can get one Nasty Plot in with Plusle. After that I take them out with Poison Jab and Electro Ball. If I am given the opportunity I use Entrainment on Ariados to increase Plusle's Special Attack. I have Girafarig for some coverage and use Skill Swap to mess with the opponent's pokemon. (e.g. get rid of speed boost on Scolepede or Protean on Greninja) Charizard is my fast sweeper and thanks to Drought, water attack damage is minimized. I only have to worry about rock types and that's why I have protect. I haven't used Swampert or Absol while I've challenged the Battle Maison. Any ideas let me know.

I am aware that some of the moves should be replaced, I just need some assistance with which ones. Thanks again.

*Edit*
I'm about to challenge Battle Chatelaine Evelyn. (20 streak)

I'm assuming this isn't Super. It's harder in Super, not impossible though. CPU tailors teams to beat yours as your streaks add on so sometimes it's good to switch it up. Anywho....

Give Charizard Solarbeam, and Protect < Roost only because it prolongs its longevity.
Ground/Rock types are going to demolish that team only one not super effected is Giraf and you're not even packing counters.
Ferrothorn or Rotom-W could work in its place.

Why Shadow Sneak on Ariados? Why not Megahorn since it's a STAB move.

And do you really need two 'mons with T-Wave PLUS sticky web?

Hammer Arm on Swampert kinda makes King's Rock useless, especially since this is not a Trick Room team.
Swampert is already slow and Hammer Arm makes it slower, while King's Rock requires its holder to go first otherwise the flinch effect is pointless.


Also, why not Timid Nature for Plusle?

I second this.

Oh, and adding to the subject of Swampert as well it would be better to have 252 Evs in HP and then 252 into def or sp. def, or even split that 252 between the two and put the reaming 4 into atk if your going defensively, which is what it looks like. No HP investment is a waste if you're not putting Evs into the two defenses.
