BF team help

caffeine=my god
My BF team is a Salamance, Metagross, and Starmie/Latios. To be honest, they s*ck, and I need some suggestions. The EV's of Metagross and Salamance are unknown, but they are probably mainly attack due to E4 training. I do not have Earthquake (training a Teddiursa for it though), I am too lazy to figure out Hidden Power, and I used a lot of TM's already. Any suggestions on my team?

Salamance@Hardy
Dragon Claw
Aerial Ace
Body Slam
Flamethrower

Metagross@Bashful(>_<)
Brick Break
Shadow Ball
Psychic
Explosion (Will be replaced by EQ soon)

Starmie and Latios both @ Modest, have same movesets, and have 252/252/6 EV's in Spc. Attack, Speed, and HP
Psychic/Recover
T-bolt
Ice Beam
Surf

Blaziken. It has too many weaknesses for BF.

Hmm. Walls always work well.


Ludicolo - Leftovers
Bold

-Leech Seed
-Rain Dance
-Toxic
-Surf

Surf gets STAB when you activate Rain Dance. Lay down a Leech Seed and you'll have 3 sources of HP - Leftovers, Rain Dish, and Leech Seed. Toxic is there for obvious reasons.

Swift Swim is better.

Ludicolo@ Leftovers
Trait: SWIFT SWIM
Nature: Calm
-Rain Dance
-Surf
-Ice Beam / Giga Drain
-Leech Seed (or if you don't want seed) / Filler

Metagross@Bashful(>_<)
Brick Break
Shadow Ball
Psychic
Explosion (Will be replaced by EQ soon)
Then that means you have used up your Explosion ¬¬
Replace Psychic with Earthquake, Get rid of Brick Break for Meteor Mash, and Put Agility over Shadow Ball.

CB Salamence works better that CB Gross in-game imo.
So use that as your CBer, and use Aligross (above).

Starmie works fine as your Special Sweeper, but that means you have no kind of defence at all.
imo, get rid of Salamence or Metagross, and put in a Regice, Blissey, Snorlax, Regirock or Registeel.

Come along, dear
