im pretty sure you dont get simisage as your elemental monkey. you get simisear, so youll have to trade that over. for sigilyph, calm mind works great. scrafty could use hi jump kick, stone edge and bulk up (take out brick break.)

The team well planned. Samurott and Sigilyph do share a weakness to Electric though, so a Ground move would be good.

Samurott

-Surf/Hydro Pump
-Ice Beam
-X Scissor/Megahorn
-Dig (It's better than Night Slash, because Dig is super effective against Electric types)

Simisage

-Seed Bomb
-Brick Break (Against Ice types)
-Dig (Against Fire types)
-Rock Slide (Against Flying, Bug and Ice)

Scrafty

-Crunch
-Brick Break
-Head Smash (Against Flying types)
-Rock Climb?

Sigilyph

-Air Slash
-Psychic
-Shadow Ball (Against Ghost types)
-Energy Ball (Against Rock types)

Also, why does Sigilyph know Fly? Sigilyph isn't too good for physical battling. But, I'm guessing it's your flyer, right?

@andres; You can get the monkeys in shaking grass in Pinwheel Forest.

Return > Night Slash on Samurott for some nice neutral coverage. Alternatively, you could go with Aqua Jet for priority or Revenge for a Fighting-type move, mainly to hit Steels.

Simisage
~ Seed Bomb
~ Brick Break
~ Crunch
~ Rock Slide

Seed Bomb is STAB, Brick Break to hit Steel-types. Crunch gets some great coverage alongside Brick Break, and Rock Slide for Flying- and Fire-types.


Scrafty
~ Bulk Up
~ High Jump Kick
~ Crunch
~ Rock Slide
Bulk Up for boosting. HJK is a great STAB move, and alongside both Crunch and Rock Slide you have great coverage.

The above user's Sigilyph set works fine.

Please edit in your two other Pokemon when you can

zhaton, you helped me with my own Simisage. I didn't even know it could learn Rock Slide. I'll change my Simisage moveset. Thank you.

Charge Beam can also work on Sigilyph , some coverage and a 50% chance to raise your Special Attack. But then there's Calm Mind , so yeah.

Darmanitan @ life orb
jolly
sheer force (boosts moves with secondary effect)
-Fire Punch/Flare blitz (both get sheer force)
-Superpower (coverage)
-EQ/bulk up (coverage or stat boost)
-Rock slide (sheer force boost)

 

[Tuskie Tyrant Yoko Kurama]

sheer force (boosts moves with secondary effect)

At the same time, they lose their secondary effect too.

 

[Aura Sensei™]

Darmanitan @ life orb
jolly
sheer force (boosts moves with secondary effect)
-Fire Punch/Flare blitz (both get sheer force)
-Superpower (coverage)
-EQ/bulk up (coverage or stat boost)
-Rock slide (sheer force boost)

Really just use Fire Punch > Superpower so you have the choice of which STAB. Superpower in the long run is worse than Earthquake , and with Eazrthquake offers little coverage.
