This is ingame right, against the Elite 4 your going to want to go with sludge bomb.

Nice mixture, not much to say, just think about changing your itme, maybe a Life orb or if not a chocie scarf, if not that then maybe leftovers.

I guess you haven't noticed that Dark and Ghost hit the exact same things for super effective. Dark + Fight = Ultimate Coverage as well, plus dark gets STAB, making shadow claw worthless.

Ice hits Grass as well, so no Aerial Ace. But 'Vile is way too frail to utilize SD. I don't have much options as well, so I might use Metal Claw.

Aerial Ace also hits Fighting types. Vile is not too frail to use Swords Dance if you use Muscle Band, as it will usually survive one Neutral Attack. And Metal Claw is crap =/

But his Physical movepool is too shallow. But I'll consider Aerial Ace.

What's this for? ^
Weaville isnt to weak to use SD, just give it a FB and then use it on you first turn and then sweep, but remeber if you do that then when your EV traing put max in speed and some in def, I know putting some in defence doesnt make much sence but if the first hit from say a Charizard using Aerial Ace gets you down to half with the eves instead off a one hit KO without them then that means (depending on the Charizards evs) that you should be able to survie another hit meaning you can get in anpther Swords dance and then sweep. Or you could just go with AA :D

Edit 1, Think outside the box and use some more interesting Items the plates are wothless unless you have an Arceus, as the only rasie that one type and as you only have one move for that one type its a waste maybe an item to benifit them more than just that one power raise.
