might i suggest making your post neater i can barely read it.

also try not to double on attack types i mean brick break is fine for heracross and you dont really need focus bomb

There is that better?
The computer automatically replaces "D"s with smilies, so I can't fix that.

I DID actually ask for a rating, so I would apreciate it if you gave my something out of ten.

But I made my team like this for a reason. It has no weakness repeated. All pokemon except Sableye and Mirakuge have a weakness to any attack on my team, and those two don't have weaknesses! So I'm not going to completely change this strategy. What I really want are alternatives for my attacks or pokemon you think could replace the ones I chose.

Wtf? Why would you give Heracross a special attack?
Cecil is right. Don’t give a Pokémon two attacking moves of the same type!

I already said why I chose this moveset; read the posts before posting.

I did read the posts and you make no sense. Putting multiple attacks of the same type on one Pokémon isn’t going to help at all. Seriously, the movesets I suggested are way better.

1/10, I'm sorry but your team kinda sucks. I know it is ingame and you dont have a lot of choice but still . . . Anyways, here is my rate.

Since you have poke slike charizard, you must be planning this for the battle tower so, I will suggest according to that.

;214;Heracross@SalacBerry
Adamant
252 Evs Attack
252 Evs Speed
006 Evs HP
-Endure
-Reversal
-Earthquake
-Megahorn
Pretty standart, but simply kills. A hitmonlee would pull the endure/reversal trick much better, but this is one of the best Heracross has.

;442;Mirakuge@Leftovers
Modest/Bold
128 Evs HP
128 Evs Def
128 Evs SpDef
126 Evs SpAttack
-Scheme
-DarkPulse
-ShadowBall
-ShockWave/Psychic
Defensive type + leftovers make it a good candidate for scheme, but don't count on the low HP. Never made a mirakuge set before, Im sure you can find better. BTW I would go with shock wave, after two schemes, it doesn't matter and type coverage is important. Low speed doesn't help it either.

;171;Lanturn@BrightPowder/Leftovers
Modest/Calm
252 Evs HP
129 Evs Def
129 Evs SpAttck
-ConfuseRay
-Mist
-Discharge
-IceBeam
I never liked Lanturn. Except for the most avesome (sp.?) movepool, it doesn't have anything to back it up. Low stats just make it. HP is godly though, us eit to your advantage. Have a doublebattle with an electric and use it to heal Lanturn. This set is an annoyer/hazer. Confuse, then discharge till they get paralysis. Still, not that good. Could do the same thing with starmie a confuseray/recover/thunderwave/surf combo.

;480;Yukishii@Metronome
Bold/Calm
252 Evs HP
129 Evs Def
129 Evs SpDef
-Yawn
-Rest
-Imprison/DreamEater
-IceBeam
Imprison is nice for chestorest counter and you get to use your rest too. Usually yawn causes switchs so I don't suggest dreameater here, but still it's an option. You might wanna PP Max Icebeam.

;006;Charizard@HotRock
Modest
252 Evs Speed
252 Evs SpAttack
006 Evs HP
-SunnyDay
-SolarBeam
-Flamethrower
-AirSlash
With the addition of hot rock, solarbeam to charizard and air slash being a special attack, he is the best sunny beamer there is. Something draconic this way comes.

;445;Kaburaisu@ShellBell
Adamant/Jolly
252 Evs Attack
252 Evs Speed
006 Evs HP
-SwordsDance
-IronHead/RockSlide
-Earthquake
-DragonClaw
You can take on ice types with steel also, watch out for ice/water types or water types with ice. But steel is better than rock, and you won't be able to KO the water/ice with one rock slide anyway(that never happens. It goes down to the red zone and that's it) so I say iron head. Better base power, more awesome type and more accurate. Well, if you are worried about birds, shame on you. Swordsdance takes advantage of the hig speed and makes this thingie invincible. Very cool.

I made this team so that way it can take out my opponents fast and easy before they notice my strategy, which is the play-it-by-ear strategy. If they knew that strategy, I'd by creamed.

Now I know it doesn't make sense in most cases for you to do the "Double STAB" thing, but in this case its the best I've got. It was built for attack, and only attack.

And like I said, I did this to cover every type combo made. And my team type choice has no reapeted weakness

Refer to my sig if you think I'm insane.

If you don't want a rate, I suppose you're showing your team off?
Besides, it's a matter of prediction and predictability. Everyone knows that a ;445; can learn Earthquake, and your strategy isn't a strategy at all; everyone will use your lacking moves as a set up table.

Use Aragornbird's rates, except Mikaruge, in which you're better off running WoW/Scheme/Pain Split/Dark Pulse. Trust me. It's not just attack and win. Even in this seemingly offense filled metagame there's always room for stat-upping (Gabu can Swords Dance AND THEN rip an entire team, so you don't really have to keep on running off only because Earthquake doesn't kill a Glacia

If you take rating literally, then 1/10

Ok this is just a test team, it exists, but I just wanted some suggestions. Had to work pretty hard to get them to. Now that I have some advice, don't expect to lose from me!

umm... someone
well, I think that was a good choice to have a Gaburias, I want one too (it is one of Shinou´s powerful entities) now then I agree with aragonbird´s ideas.. but about that Emuritto, heck man! u don´t need a legendary in your team, I dont use any legendary and I -almost- always win, (u need a Wobbuffet though :p) if I were you, I would use a Weavile or Lucario instead of Emuritto.

Newsflash: AABM

Legendaries like Emuritto are not that powerful. They only have 580 total base stats, meanwhile, Pokémon like Salamence and Kaiburasu have 600 total base stats. It’s perfectly okay to have a non-uber legendary in your team.

Argornbird basically stated my opnion...only better. I would pick ice beam over confuse ray, Argorn, mainly for those pesky Grass Types.
