First Team.

Dragon~Chan

Fromage-Poisson!
Okay, this is the first team I've ever put much effort or though into, so if you guys could help out, That'd be great. I'm playing sapphire, against two of my friends. I'm almost certain I'll have to counter another Swampert, a Swellow, Gardevoir, Torkoal, Sharpedo, Tropius, Sceptile and Magneton.

EVs: I don't bother with IVs and EVs
Nature: Adamant or Jolly
- Earthquake
- Flamethrower
- Dragon Dance
- A good flying move or Crunch.


Any reccomendations?
 
Give Salamence Dragon Claw. It should have a good STAB especially after a DD.
 
Switch vileplume for say crobat with double team
 
Don't listen to what either of them say :D
Dragon Claw runs off Special Attack so Dragon Dance does nothing to help it.
And double team is just lol.

On swampert give him leftovers and maybe protect instead of rest. Protect every other turn if you are hurt to get leftovers recovery.

Skarmory should have leftovers.

On Rhydon, definitely run Rock Head. Use rock blast if you know your opponent will be using substitute, otherwise, rock slide is better. For the item use leftovers or choice band.

Vileplume should have leftovers and this set:

-Aromatherapy
-Synthesis (you can keep moonlight though)
-Sleep Powder
-Sludge Bomb

Walrein should be bold or careful, with leftovers, preferably with something like:

-Rest
-Sleep Talk
-Toxic
-Surf

Salamence should either have choice band or leftovers. If it has leftovers use:

-Dragon Dance
-Rock Slide
-Earthquake
-Aerial Ace (Assuming you can't get HP Flying)

If he has Choice Band use:

-Earthquake
-Rock Slide
-Aerial Ace
-Fire Blast

Standard Mixpert is

Ice beam

Your two suggested moves are pretty novelty.

Just realized this is pretty much identical to dd's .__.

Also, at above poster: Crunch on mence is useless because it hits nothing, rocks hits a lot more stuff a lot harder than iron tail on Rhydon, and status-healing berries generally aren't very good.
