Revised team

Hi, a while back up put up my first team and it got mixed reviews. I changed it, but now I would like more suggestions, as the last helped. Okay, here it goes:


Infernape (Focus Sash) with blaze (Naive)
evs: full attacks and a bit of speed
Stealth Rock
Fake Out
Overheat
Close Combat

Got a lot of stick for my last one. It worked, but I wnat to try something new.

Gengar (Choice scarf) with levitate (Modest)
evs: sp attack 252, speed 252, hp 4
Trick
Shadow Ball
Thunderbolt
Hidden power (ice)

Covers lots of evil things like salamence. Also trick is helpful.

Scizor (Leftovers) with Technician (Adamant)
evs: 252 attack
U-turn
Bullet Punch
Roost
Pursuit

Scizor with roost. What more can I say.


Metagross (Life orb) with Clear body (Adamant nature)
evs: 252 attack, and about 180 speed (I think) but dunno about the rest
Meteor mash
Earthquake
Explosion
Agility

Standard agility gross, works a treat.


Skarmory (Shed shell) with sturdy (Adamant nature)
evs: full speed and attack
Roost
Drill peck
Steel wing
Swords dance

Skarmory is a steamroller (IT DOES WORK- try it and see), which is that it hacks it's way through the opposition, and in return takes only a bit of damage.

I am not sure about the last. Please give recomandations :)
 
Get pictures for each pokemon. Also explain more what role each one of them plays in your team. That makes it alot easier to fix things in your team.

Gl with the team ^^
 
The Pokemon are fine. But your moves are a bit odd. Firstly, Infernape should NOT have Stealth Rock and Fake Out. Replace them with Fire Blast and Thunderpunch respectively. For Gengar, he's decent except that HP Ice only has a maxmum BP of 70. Replace it with Ice Beam. And take out Trick and replace it with Focus Blast OR Hypnosis. Scizor is fine along with Metagross. Skarmory is pretty good also.

Great set, gets stealth rock up on so many things. Now THIS is a lead.

looks good to me, just be careful of Scizor, especially Choice Band variants.

U-turn

Roost
Pursuit

Scizor with roost. What more can I say.

Please do not act like this is a completely standard set and we should all know what it does. Roost is for SD sets, otherwise there's no point to using it. Scizor without a way to boost its attack is a joke. Additional EVs please.

evs: 252 attack, and about 180 speed (I think) but dunno about the rest
Meteor mash
Earthquake

This is a great set, but it doesn't provide great synergy for the rest of the team, all of your pokemon are countered by Zapdos.

Skarmory (Shed shell) with sturdy (Adamant nature)

Roost
Drill peck
Steel wing
Swords dance

Skarmory is a steamroller (IT DOES WORK- try it and see), which is that it hacks it's way through the opposition, and in return takes only a bit of damage.

This concept has already BEEN created. It's called a TANK! And so many things can do this better, I'd suggest a Mixpert here, can provide sleep support as well as counter Zapdos and take those Fire attacks aimed at Meta and Scizor. While tanks DO work, this doesn't. Please stop acting like you created a radically new development and just because you say it works doesn't mean something can't do its job better. This set is a joke.

I am not sure about the last. Please give recomandations :)

GOOD. Now, other people:
'I like pikachu'. er I'll change to ice beam definates, and i'll think about other suggestions. THank you :) NOw for my final team member... Help?
 
FYI, Gengar can't learn Ice Beam. Just stick with HP:Ice.
 
I personally think you should get Gyarados because without him, you have a large weakness to Fire and Ground type moves. Now Ground is REALLY common but the fire... not so much. Gyarados takes care of those two types easily by being immune to ground and sporting a resistance to fire while having a base SpD stat of 100.
 
it's almost fine but there is on problem that isn't working out. gengar needs focus blast!! it's handles dark types. teach it that over trick. but apart from that your team great:D
