Help My Brother's Team!

This is my brother's dream team, and I helped tweak it up. He really needs a 6th. He says he would prefer Altaria, Swalot, Venusaur, Blaziken, Camerupt, Forrettress, Walrein, or Sharpedo (lol pretty big list). These are his favorites, so he would prefer if he got some help with THESE pokemon, instead of switching them out.

ANY HELP IS GREATLY APPRECIATED, THANKS IN ADVANCE.

;330;Flygon @Leftovers
Jolly (+Spd, -SAtk) – Levitate
EVs: 252 Attack, 212 Speed, 44 HP
- Dragon Claw
- Earthquake
- Stone Edge
- Roost

Seems like a good starter to me, pretty strong, DC/EQ for STAB, SE to take care of flying, and Roost because its good. Need help w/ item and EVs.

;289;Slaking @Leftovers
Adamant(+Atk, -SAtk) – Truant
EVs: 252 Attack, 44 Defense, 212 HP
- Giga Impact
- Body Slam / Snore
- Slack Off
- Yawn / Snore

Not my Idea, my brother just has it in his head that Slaking could actually be useful in competitive battling (and its his favorite)...Yawn to put opponents to sleep so Truant doesn't hinder Slaking so much, Snore so if Slaking gets put to sleep he isnt completely screwed. Giga Impact = 225 base damage from STAB, and he has to rest anyways because of Truant. Could probably use a better item and some EV help.

;448;Lucario @Choice Specs
Modest (+SAtk, -Atk) – Inner Focus
EVs: 252 Special Attack, 144 HP, 114 Speed
- Dragon Pulse
- Aura Sphere
- Psychic
- Dark Pulse

Pretty basic Special Sweeping Lucario, i believe this is Toy's. damn sex.

;306;Aggron @Life Orb
Impish (+Def, -SAtk) – Sturdy
EVs: 252 HP, 252 Attack, 4 Speed
- Iron Head
- Stone Edge / Rock Slide
- Avalanche
- Dragon Rush

Physical Sweeper / Tank, i guess? Need a lotta help with this guy, not sure about his item, nature, EVS...
ive got Iron Head in there over Iron Tail because its better accuracy, only 30 less base damage from STAB, and its got a 30% chance to make the foe flinch...Avalance is to take care of grass/ground, and if they're faster than Aggron it'll just double Avalanche's power. Stone Edge is more powerful than Rock Slide and SE has a high critical-hit ratio, but RS has higher accuracy and it can make the foe flinch, so i'm not sure which one to use (if any). Dragon Rush...I dunno, Dragon moves are always fun?

;275;Shiftry @Leftovers
Modest (+SAtk, -Atk) – Chlorophyll
EVs: 252 Special Attack, 88 Speed, 170 HP
- Grass Knot / Energy Ball
- Dark Pulse
- Nasty Plot / Energy Ball
- Payback / Embargo

Grass Knot against the heavier foes, not sure how effective it is against the lighter guys? Dark Pulse is nice with STAB, Nasty plot is just sexy, Embargo seems like it would piss off my opponent but Payback gets 150 dark damage with STAB if i'm hit first...and Energy Ball just seems appropriate.

I think Shiftry might be able to take care of Gyarados, Flygon could probably take care of a Tyranitar or Lucario lead, but there's probably a big weakness that i'm just not seeing...heracross, metagross, salamence? i dunno, please help!

IMO this is your team, but you claimed it was your brother's so that you could blame him for it being bad.

Not to mention that halfway into it you stop using "my brother" altogether and use "I" and "me" instead. =(

your opinion is wrong, its not my team. it is my brothers. I know its bad and i said so because my brother is more concerned with using his favorites than covering his weaknesses. if it WERE my team, i really wouldnt use a lame excuse like "lol this team sucks but its not mine its my brothers!"

MY team is in my trainer card in my sig. I stopped using "my brother" and started saying "I" or "me" because A) it sounded retarded to keep saying "my brother" "my brother" "my brother", and b) I came up with most of the movesets, my brother's original movesets were horrendous.
