Your team will get swept by any sweepers, especially Special sweepers that carry BoltBeam. Not to mention the obvbious Magneton + Choice Bander weakness. Endrev weakness as well.

So should I replace Victreebell for something else then?

I played a few games and so far it has done nothing but faint in the first turn.

2 grass types on one team is kind of useless/unnecessary/not worth it. Victreebell is UU/BL for a reason.

May want a special wall like regice/bliss or whatever.

Jolteon beats this without breaking a sweat, let alone Raikou

2 grass types isn't good on one team, and plus cradily isn't a good special sponge without using amnesia

Regice/Snorlax and Blissey are the best bets for special sponges, if you use regice, watch out for CM Raikou

Psych up/Seismic toss can solve the CM Raikou problem while using regice

fury swipes is useful on Slaking for breaking subs from starting Zapdos/Jolteon. EQ is kinda a filler since it only hits meta harder than its other moves

It was moreso created for lead jasks but its not so good in use now considering the use of jask has plummeted.

to dynamo:
Fury Swipes is for Ninjask/Jolteon.
And I've never really seen Victreebell survive more than one attack, so I'm not sure Synthesis would be that useful. Giga Drain can OHKO Swampert. But I'm getting rid of Victreebell anyway so it doesn't matter.


Any options besides Regice/Blissey? I'm not really fond of them.

Roar might be better, seeing that it can phaze and switch them.

I only did the moves, seeing that that's all i'm good at in RMT.
 

dynamo

Do not pass Go.
Attention guy:

Hyper Beam on Slaking is stupid, since you can't switch on the traunt turn.

You are suggesting to get rid of Return, the most important move on Slaking ._.

Skarmory has no reason to have Toxic - Trust me, you'll be much better off with the ability to heal yourself. Toxic Forry is cool but Skarmory has a much better movepool and it needs to stay alive to use it.
 

Guy

I don't know!
When you switch on the Truant turn is when they switch. Slaking has moves to handle a lot of types.
 

dynamo

Do not pass Go.
That doesn't stop Pokemon from countering it - You need to be able to switch so that you don't leave Slaking vulnerable to it's counters.
