heres my team so far

Flygon
Naughty@Life Orb
Evs: 252 Atk / 252 Spd / 4 SAtk

Earthquake
Fire Blast / Flamethrower
Dragon Claw
Roost

Just a straight forward Flygon but I am unsure whether to have Fire Blast or Flamethrower.

Rhyperior
Brave@Leftovers
Evs: 252 Hp / 80 Atk / 176 Def

Earthquake
Stone Edge
Avalanche
Substitute

This is a mixed wall and sweeper and I happy with this set as it covers quite a few types.

I also plan on having the pokemon on the trainer card in my sig, but can someone rate my pokemon right now just incase I need to improve it and can someone suggest a good yanmega moveset and ev spread please?

If your planning on using substitute for your Rhyperior, you should replace avalanche with Focus Punch. That'll murder!

I say flamethrower on your Flygon. It has better accuracy I think. But maybe you should put in all physical moves so as all its moves would work well with the EV spread.

Not bad so far.

thanks but im keeping avalanche to deal with dragons because their isnt much for fighting moves to cover if I have Eq and Stone Edge

I put flamethrower on flygon and it took out lucians bronzong in a few hits when it was lv 45

Here is my electivire that I have planned as I am currently breeding for his moves

Electivire
Adamant/Naughty@Expert Belt
Evs: 252 Atk / 252 Speed / 4 Hp

Earthquake
Cross Chop
Ice Punch
Thunder Punch

This set offers a lot of coverage and the expert belt works really well with it

So what does everyone else think of my team?

If you are using Naughty instead of Adamant on Vire, give it Thunderbolt instead of Thunderpunch.

does anyone recommend something because I was thinking about using ninjask as a staller

Here is its movepool

Agility
Baton Pass
Protect
Substitute

This is a staller so I can baton pass to another sweeper and give them a huge speed boost but I was thinking about what a good ev spread was

You know there's only 3 guys for the battle tower right?

A ninjask with substitute does not need protect. Give it X scissors, instead. That's what mine has. It takes care of pshycis like Azelf, and Gengar.

Speaking of which, my Gengar takes out 2 guys at the battle tower, often if he's my lead. It has Destiny Bond instead of Focus Blast (bad accuracy), and a Focas Sash. With Focus Blast and Hypnosis, you'll be missing some attacks, and will die for them.

I have little experience with the other pokemon. PS- if I have a battle tower team, specifially for wifi, do I put it in this forum or the wifi forum?

Gengar isn't a psychic, and he resists X-Scissor

Give Gengar Wide Lens, to increase the accuracy of Hypnosis & Focus Blast.
And change Protect in Ninjask to either X-Scissor or Aerial Ace.

Thanks I will probably do that

For the main three pokemon I will use will be

Ninjask
Electivire
Gengar

as they give me type coverage over all of the Palmers pokemon

Here is my strategy

I will send out Ninjask and use Substitute It should hopefully last because of it EV Spread

Then I will use Swords Dance and then they should break through my sub and then I will continue using this strategy for a bit then use Baton Pass when I cant use substitute anymore

I will Pas too Electivire who should wipe out the majority of his pokemon if not then I always have Gengar for his pokemon like Cresselia

Is this a good strategy?

And would this be a an ok competitive team?

That's a good strategy, and it's the one I use. It makes Electivire amazing because it has a moveset that will OHKO 16 pkmn types.
