Overall, I'd say that's a pretty damn good team. The only downside I can see is that the majority of your moves are attack based, and personally I'd opt to change a few to stat raising moves, always helpful in longer battles. I'd also definitely advise using hold items, they help so much!
However, I'd also like to appeal to some of the previous posters on this thread, not to get all their ideas from smogon please? Sorry for criticising you, and I admit that some good ideas can be found on that site, but surely it's better to rely on your own common sense rather than spewing somebody elses ideas? Thanks.
 
Yes, I don't have EV's, that is merely because I thought of this setup at 3am this morning and I didn't care to spend any more time planning out EV's at that time of night.
That's not really an excuse, nobody said you had to post it at 3am, you could've waited till' the morning.
why have a specific lead? posting a specific lead means you will lose every time if you come up against the pokemons weakness. So my intention was to change the lead as it suited me. Hardly a n00b-ish thing.
Yes, a very n00bish thing. Your "it loses everytime" logic fails as well. You're supposed to take into account the most common leads(Yanmega, Gengar, Bronzong, etc.) then you make sure your lead can handle them, if it can't its not a good lead!
so I haven't included items, I refer you to the first point I made.
I work as a breeder on pokemon and help other people get egg moves and natures as requested so I already know about them, same with EV's, team-building, choosing a lead is a matter of personal taste in my opinion. Items is the only aspect I haven't looked at merely because I haven't had the time to look at every single hold item in the 4th generation and compare them to the pokemon I chose in the time since I settled on those 6
IT IS AGAINST THE RULES TO NOT POST EV'S AND ITEMS!!

so its against the rules eh? not my rules. I posted the team exactly as I had them written down, no different in anyway and I aint changing that to please people I'll never meet. I merely asked for opinions on the team and it appears that the majority of the posts are more concerned with rules than pokemon. and if you would care to read the post you quoted again, I said I thought of the team at 3am, not that I posted it at 3am. and lets see... yanmega- bug flying, 2x weakness to ice and electric... countered by 4 of my pokemon, gengar will be removed by my heavy hitters, bronzong- steel psychic- 2x weaknes to fire, magmortar quite simply. each of my team has been engineered to counter as many types as possible by themselves and come together to cover the whole range so just because i dont have one specific lead does not mean i am n00bish.

Just note, I didn't read anything past this. IT IS AGAINST THE RULES OF SEREBII FORUMS!!! Nobody cares about your rules. If you look at the top right hand corner of your screen you will see a big sign that says "RULE BREAKERS ARE GIVING US A HEADACHE, READ THE RULES!!!" Oh, I just read this part of you rant:

it appears that the majority of the posts are more concerned with rules than pokemon.
We can't rate your team if you have no EV's or items, that's the most important thing! Like Randomspot said, without EV's or items the only rates we can give you is "tH0se M0vEs ArE teH r0XoRz" or "tHosE M0vEs aRe tEh suX0rS!" that's why the rules are there.

My opinion is that you should read the rules, ditch what left of your logic in a ditch to be forgotten. It doesn't matter if your pokemon have moves to take them out. Most Yanmega run protect gain a speed boost sometimes they might run wide lense and put you too sleep and gain three speed boost. That would Sweap your whole team and if there not running wide lense they could be running life orb, or wise glasses which would kill 2/3 of your team. So you can post this in in-game fourm or take our invest.
 
Erm... yeah okay you people have a point, but surely he's gonna add them in later anyway (I actually know he's going to cause I know the guy and was talking to him earlier and he asked me what nature would be best for something) so why don't you just wait and maybe suggest items and natures? I mean I'm new here but I thought the idea of these threads was to help people make their teams better, not to criticise them and be pedantic about rules and the like? If you have something to say about his team, just... say it in a nice way? There's too much conflict going on here. It actually is only pokemon guys.
 
Natures re-done, with a couple of moves changed to reflect this. still no items and EV's but those will probably be done if and when I have the time.. Unless you have suggestions regarding the moves and natures, please dont post mentioning the lack of either items or EV's.
 
nuf sed

to conclude....

SMOGON = pure ****!

there are limitless things you can do when it comes to pokemon, true he (prince amrod) hasnt filled everything out yet but surely none of you actually think that he is incompetent enuf to leave them out altogether?

any1 (yeah even retards) will know about items and EVs, since they are mentioned everywhere on the net. so cut him some slack and let him try things his own way. it could work out, depending on what other trainers choose to do.

ASA ftw!!!!
 
could you people stop spamming and rate his teamlike im doing god!im going to make this easy on myself and just post the pokemon moves that i want changed you will see

This is the first time I've ever thought about making a competitive team so I apologise in advance if it is full of weakness and suchlike, I have tried to counter as many possible types as I can think of with the movesets. I also haven't looked into the items section yet to find out which items are advisable to use, which is why i haven't put any in. The EV's/IV's aren't in either as I have only been getting the level 1 versions ready for EV training at a later date OK I UNDERSTAND BUT I WILL PUT IN THE EVS ANY WAY and I don't know the IV's of any of them.
This isn't the order I will use them in, that order will vary from battle to battle

The rules do state you need EVs in a CRMT thread. :/ But also, this is attracting a lot of spam mainly, instead of rates. Better off closed.
