That team's good for the in-game RMT section, because you have two moves of the same move type for each of the 6 in your party, plus HB and a 1HKO move... Anyway, I won't suggest alternatives until this thread's moved to IGRMT...

EDIT: Sorry, but I reported it a few seconds late...

Moved, but please, the one thing that'll make a post in the wrong section worse is by posting "This is in the wrong section!!! Move it!" The quickest way to get it moved is to PM me, or just wait until I get on and notice it.

Not the face!
All right, This team needs some MAJOR tweaking. Lets take a Looksie...

First, Blaziken. Lets keep Blaze Kick, but remove DT, FP, and Overheat. Add Swords Dance, Thunder Punch, and Brick Break. Blaze Kick is their for STAB, Plus it has a high critical hit ratio with the chance of burning the foe, Swords Dance is sorta Obvious, Thunder Punch to take care of Water pokemon, and Brick Break for STAB and to break through the enemy's Reflect/Light Screen.

Now lets replace Articuno with Glaile, since you already have a Flying type (coughDragonitecough). Now lets put Ice Beam on your new Glaile, along with Crunch, Spikes, and Explosion. Ice Beam gets STAB, Crunch for those pesky Psychic types, Spikes to hurt foes switching out, And Explosion for when Glaile is in the red and the opponet is at an attvantige. It can be pretty funny to see your foe's face when your Glaile explodes and knocks out his strongest Pokemon.

I'm going to borow Serebii's Groudon move set. Bulk up, Overheat, Earthquake, and Brickbreak. There you go.

Lanturn should keep surf and Thunder bolt, but delete Thunder and Charge. Put Confuse Ray and Thunder Wave. There is a decent Moveset for Lanturn (I found it helpful at least).

Dragonite Should keep Dragon Dance, but for Sanjuunk's sake, Hyper Beam?! Fly?! What's wrong with ya?!! Let's get rid of them, along with wing attack. Now replace Hyper Beam with Dragon Claw. Then put in Body Slam for the cance of Paralizing the foe. Finnally put Arieal Ace as the finnal move. Why? Because it will never miss. EVER.

For the finnal Pokemon, I Suggest Gardevoir with Destiny Bond, Psychic, Calm Mind, and Fire Punch.This moveset will suprise the foe, so it should work.

Well, I hope this team helps you. Adios!

I can`t get rid of Articuno, because with it`s defence it is able to resist more then 1 attack and so I can use Mind Reader and then use Sheer Cold without failing and defeating at least 1 pokemon.
And with Blaziken Sword Dance will be useful for Brick Break but nothing more and it has a great combo with Focus punch and Double team, because after I use Double team 2or3 times the oponent`s not going to hit too many and then I can use Focus punch and defeat or at least give a poverful hit to the other.

Let's talk about redundant.

Swords Dance
Sky Uppercut
Rock Slide
Overheat

Blaziken Dances well.


Groudon:lv100
Solarbeam
Earthquake
Eruption
Fire Blast

I'd be terrified to be your coach.

Bulk Up
Rock Slide
Earthquake
Overheat

Like Blaziken, you'll be concentrating on the offensive aspect.


Lanturn:lv100
Charge
Surf
Thunderbolt
Thunder

Again you're redundant. (I'm getting redundant too)

Surf
Thunderbolt
Tunder Wave
Confuse Ray

ParaFuse and Double the STAB make this guy useful.


Articuno:lv100
Ice Beam
Blizzard
Sheer Cold
Mean Look

If anything, Substitute goes in place of Blizzard. Articuno doesn't have great moves anyways.

Dragonite:lv100
Dragon Dance
Fly
Wing Atack
Hiper Beam

DDDragonite is the idea, eh?

Thunderbolt
Dragon Dance
HP Flying
Earthquake

I prefer DDmence.


The other pokemon can be anyone.

Let's try getting defensive then. You're on your own.
Comments are in bold.
 

SealElement

Volcano Trainer OSHI
Blaziken:
Swords Dance
Sky Uppercut
Flamethrower
Earthquake/Rock Slide

Swords Dance up, then Earthquake/Rock Slide and Sky Uppercut. Flamethrower for STAB.

Groudon:
Bulk Up
Earthquake
Solarbeam
Fire Blast

Fire Blast and Solarbeam due to ability. Bulk up and Earthquake to own all.

Lanturn:
Thunder
Rain Dance
Surf
Charge

Rain Dance, Charge, Thunder, Repeat. Surf for Ground/Rock/Fire types.

Milotic- Articuno is owned by this thing:
Safeguard
Hypnosis
Surf
Recover

Like bluecrimson, slap Milotic in Articuno's place. Only difference is safeguard to prevent possible problems.

Dragonite:
Dragon Dance
Earthquake
Dragon Claw
Aerial Ace

Dragon Dance up, sweep. Dragon Claw for STAB and type.

For the last spot, since the focus is sweeping:

Heracross:
Megahorn
Bulk up/Swords Dance
Earthquake
Brick Break

Basic Heracross moveset. Swords Dance/Bulk up, and any move for awesome sweeping.

Or a Baton Passer:

Girafirig:
Calm Mind
Baton Pass
Agility
Attract/Toxic/Psychic/Double Team(game only)/Light Screen/Reflect

Lotsa possibilities for our fine fellow here. EV train in Defense more than anything.

prophecy fulfilled
way too bump a thread with stupid suggestions like solarbeam groudon

WHOAMG it has drought lets stick solarbeam on it's poor special attack and lets waste that 438 max attack, good logic there

Also, why would you want to prevent stasuses on Milotic, who gets her defense DOUBLED when hit by one?
