Skarmory doesn't need a lot of speed.
Might consider hp fly/ww over drill peck/roar.

Maybe you'd prefer a mence in here instead.


Thanks in advance.

Ludicolos leech seed could be changed for giga drain.
Leech seed is more useful on rain dish ludicolos.

Also, rapid spin isnt particularly good (only 20 power) so you may consider replacing it with Ice Beam or Psychic.
In fact, the only real use rapid spin has is in the rare situations where the opponent has spikes, so unless you suspect beforehand that your opponent will use spikes, get rid.

Besides these issues, good team :)

since when did spikes become rare

spikers are on 9 out of 10 overused teams
 

Ludi-Kero!

Hugging 'til the end
Thanks for the suggestions and yes, many of my opponents have used Spikes and Starmie has saved me a lot.

And, well, I'm having some troubles with electric types, and I was thinking about using a Marowak but I don't know which pokémon should I change for it or if this is a good idea. What should I do?

Thanks again.

using grounds to beat electrics on netbattle is a misconception

ALL electrics use hp ice or grass, that 1/2hko ALL grounds, use snorlax or blissey
 

Ludi-Kero!

Hugging 'til the end
Oh, yes, true.

Few changes in my team, I replaced Gengar with Blissey and change Dragonite a little.

Blissey (F) @ Leftovers
Trait: Natural Cure
EVs: 60 HP / 252 Def / 20 Spd / 176 SDef
Bold Nature (+Def, -Atk)
- Aromatherapy
- Seismic Toss
- Softboiled
- Thunder Wave
Don't know if the EV's are Ok. Maybe I should give her more Spd. If a Gengar appears she T-Waves it and I switch to Ludicolo/Starmie.


Dragonite (M) @ Leftovers
Trait: Inner Focus
EVs: 129 HP / 129 Atk / 252 Spd
Adamant Nature (+Atk, -SAtk)
- Aerial Ace
- Dragon Dance
- Earthquake
- Substitute
Sub, DDance 2/3 times and sweep, still don't know about HP:Flying or AA.

Thanks again in advance.

Salamence over Dragonite could work especially if you want Choice Band. Don't worry about Double Team as it's rare and only nubs use it so use HP.

are you crazy andy? rain dish is NEVER GOOD and i mean NEVER! it last only six turn and you don't gain much with it. leech seed is always a must on mexicolo and a gay moveset to use it to the fullest imo is dive,protect,toxic and leech seed with leftover. annoy the crap out of people. again imo as i won alot of matches because of that set good time good times

dive gives the opponent a free switch. replace leech seed with T-punch is a good idea.

I prefer salamence more than dragonite, because it has better attack, HP and speed and can learn the same moveset. but it´s even better with another attacks holding Cband
