1: It would help us greatly if you posted natures, items, EV's and their role on the team

2: It would help more if you limited it down to six.

This is RATE MY TEAM. You need to have a team, we don't build one for you. That being said...


Tentacruel: Poison Spiker/ 255 spd 255 spa/Docile
Ice Beam

Sludge Bomb
Toxic Spikes

Standard set. Poison doesn't have great coverage, so you can drop it for something else. Knock Off or Giga Drain?

Bad nature too.

Charizard: Special sweeper/ 255 spd 255 spa/Charizard
Heat Wave
Outrage
Fly
Roost

255 in special attack but only ONE special attack?

Fly is never, ever a useful move in competitive play. Machamp will tear you apart, as well as anyone with Thunder, Sky Uppercut, or Waterfall. Dragon moves work best on dragons, and Charizard can't have the risk of being confused. Charizard is also too fragile to effectively use Roost.
Ok, I don't really feel like rating the rest. They're basically Pokemon with little to no thought being put into them. I'd suggest reading the stickies, or heading over to In-Game RMT.

I didn't personally insult you or anything. I rated your team. They're Pokemon with no natures posted or useless natures, a random assortment of moves that don't do well on the Pokemon they're for, and useless amount of EVs (255 is pointless since it won't affect it past 252).

And take your own advice. Your posting on a Pokemon forum too. Same as me.

You don't get POSITIVE help. We're not here to kiss eachother's butt. It's here to RATE the team. Constructive criticism is what I provided, not negative. And if you can't handle constructive criticism, then you didn't have to post a thread.

Sorry. The team isn't very well done.

Salamence can work out with a better nature, though I think it's one of the best mixed Pokemon out there. Outrage if possible over Dragon Claw.

Gengar shouldn't ever be using Psychic, and again Poison has crappy coverage. "I forgot the EVs" is a sign of not being very familiar with competitive battling. That's not an insult to you. We were all new at one point. But it means you should spend more time learning about competitive battling instead of jumping right into team building. Thunderbolt instead of Psychic, Destiny Bond or Hypnosis instead of Sludge Bomb.

Pikachu is an UU Poke for a reason. Yes, some UU can be viable in OU play. Pikachu isn't one of them, for the most part. Also, since it's an event Pokemon, the IVs might be low and it'll be a disadvantage in a competitive battle.

Competitive play also allows items, and none of yours have them.

You should also provide a description of what each team member does. I'm assuming the first Pokemon you posted is your starter. But if this guy faints early on, Charizard is screwed due to Stealth Rock weakness.
