You have no Normal resistance and your team needs more defense. Dusclops, Metagross, or Skarmory are the right Pokémon for you.

Tentacruel has weak defense and doesn’t resist Normal. Also the team already has a 2x Psychic weakness. He doesn’t need a 3rd Pokémon weak to Psychic.

Return is quite useless really. Shadow Ball handles Psychics.

Swords Dance is found on Sevii Island 7

whats the point of curse ...
toxic instead of will o wisp... more accuracy
nightshade instead of curse or maybe shadowball
That's what i think :)

Sceptile@ Leftovers

Leaf Blade
Substitute
Leech Seed
Thunderpunch

You have to breed for Crunch/Leech Seed though......

Swampert@Leftovers

Surf
Earthquake
Ice Beam
Rest

Dusclops@ Leftovers
Careful Nature (?)

Seismic Toss
Will-o-Wisp
Shadow Ball
Pain Split

Will-o-Wisp is better than Toxic because it halfs the opponents attack. With Night Shade you cant hit Normals at all. Shadow Ball Psychics/Ghost and Seismic Toss anything else that it will do more damage to. Also Dusclops is way too slow to use Destiny Bond.

Ok then. Put chesto berry on Swampert, Leftovers on Dusclops and something else on Sceptile. Lum Berry wouldn't be too great because it already has Sub. I dunno, maybe a Scope Lens to boost Leaf Blade's chance of CHing?

no it boosts the chance of getting a critical hit but its basically a luck item and isn't generally used much, i just can't think of many more options.
