When I looked upon a move called Fake Out in the Attackdex, I had an idea of building a whole team around that move. What that move basically does is cause 100% flinching to the opponent with 40 power and attack first as long as that attack is the first one used by the pokemon. I thought to myself, that no pokemon will be able to touch mine with this kick-butt move if I keep spamming it, of course with a few adjustments.

I picked the highest attack stats of all the pokemon that could learn Fake Out and built the team from there. It's not perfect, but it's just a blueprint for an idea. For the moves other than fake out, I tried to use moves that countered types that would resist Fake Out, like Steel and Rock; as well as moves that countered Ghost types. So the only things I would be afraid of are steel, rock, and ghost. Other than that, this team would kill very well. It's nice to divert from the typical cookie-cutter standard teams sometimes.
For the two tank pokemon, kanghaskan and hariyama, I used a combo of fake
out + toxic, which is a lethal combo that forces the pokemon to retreat or face annihilation via Toxic or Fake Out.
Any comments and suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
