I've put a bit of thought into my future Diamond team, so I figured I might as well post it:

Goukazaru @ ?
Nature: Adamant
-Flare Dive
-In Fight
-Swords Dance
-Stone Edge / Rock Slide
(Appears to be standard)

Mukuhawk @ Leftovers
Nature: Adamant
-Fly
-In Fight
-Quick Attack
-Return
(Also almost standard, only I like Fly's boosted power over Aerial Ace)

Dorapion @ Scope Lens/Sharp Claw
Nature: Adamant
Ability: Snipe
-Cross Poison
-Blade Test
-Swords Dance
-Ice Fang
(Appears to be standard)

Rozureido @ Black Sludge
Nature: Timid?
Ability: Poison Point
-Leech Seed / Synthesis
-Aromatherapy / Shadow Ball?
-Energy Ball
-Sludge Bomb


Kingdra @ Leftovers?
Nature: Modest
Ability: Snipe/Swift Swim
-Surf
-Ice Beam / Rain Dance
-Dragon Pulse / Rain Dance
-Rest
(I mainly just want a Special-based Water type that'll be available by the time I need Surf. I'm assuming Kingdra, or at least Seadra, will be available, but I'm open to replacement ideas)

Dootakun @ Leftovers?
Nature: Brave
Ability: Levitate
-Gyro Ball
-Earthquake
-Explosion
-Confuse Ray
(Not sure what to do with this guy...he strikes me as more of a tank than I've made him out to be..)



I'm also trying to come up with a good Agility-passer to partner with this Togekiss set for later in the game..I'm thinking Jolteon or Blaziken might work well since they don't have common weaknesses with Togekiss. Any other suggestions?

Togekiss @ Kings Rock
Nature: Modest
Ability: Serene Grace
-Air Slash
-Pulse Bomb
-Scheme
-Feather Rest

Agility + Kings Rock + Serene Grace + Air Slash = ~70% chance of making the opponent Flinch, if I'm not mistaken (making Flinching about as luck-based as Hypnosis).

To be honest , I also haven't got a clue yet what to do with this guy. Hypnosis and Explosion belong on its moveset in my opinion.

I'm not too sure about this one either.

Fly has a base power of 90 in D/P....which, IMO, makes it better in-game than AA or Brave Bird. Of course, for online battling, I'd go for something like Brave Bird + Choice Band.

With a base Sp.Att. of 125 and Speed of 90, does Rozureido need the Sp.Att. boost from Modest more than the Speed boost from Timid?

As for Togekiss...you appear to have missed my point. The King's Rock is meant to boost Air Slash's Serence Graced Flinch rate even higher (it's a 10% boost or something isn't it?).

Well . I've been thinking of that for a long time. Im my first D/P rates I always gave Rozureido a Modest / Timid nature. I really depends onpersonal preference. You may use Timid to outspeed counters ( to Sleep Powder them ) that have the same speed stat when you're playing competitive but in-game I think Modest is better.

Hmm..true...outspeeding in-game opponents usually isn't a big issue..

Anyone else have ideas for Dootakun? It doesn't appear to be too popular (I think there're only 2 or 3 threads that use it), although it looks like a good tank with decent offense as well.. too bad it doesn't appear to get Curse..

Also, I just realized that Steel Wing is a bit redundant on Mukuhawk when it already has In-Fight. Any reason why I'd need both?

Any thoughts on the Togekiss set/concept? It does get walled by a few pokemon (Zapdos and Rotomu come to mind), but I'd say that's a minor issue..

It's fine, except Leftovers>King's Rock (60% Flinch rate is good enough).
