Ballistic Buizel
caught shiny lati@s
LOkay, so this is my first real team that I built myself. I got some advice from people so here it is. And no, I don't care that Thundurus is uber, but if you have a replacment for him PLEASE SAY SO because he's the one that I don't have, everything else I either have already or am in the process of trading for. And I've already beaten the game, this is just a team for fun to do rematches with and to do relaxed battles with my friends.
CHANGES IN BOLD
Gallade@Scope Lens
Nature: Adamant (+atk, - sp atk)
Ability: Steadfast
Item: Leftovers
EV Spread: 252 Atk., 252 Spe., 4 Sp. Def
Moves:
Close Combat
Psycho Cut
Night Slash
Swords Dance
Switched stone edge for swords dance.
Gallade is my favorite pokemon so I based the team off of him. So no, I'm not changing this no matter HOW horrible you think Gallade is.
Thundurus
Nature: Timid/Modest changed from naive/hasty

Dragon Claw switched in, used to be outrage
Earthquake
Taunt / Brick Break
