scizor is a steel-type baton passer, in case you wanted to know.

(so is mawile, but ... c'mon. competitive team."
 

Infinity

Gone...
Ninjask + Ttar = bad.

Quick Claw is haxy and promotes no skill whatsoever.
Rock Slide/Explosion/Agility/Sludge Bomb over Shadow Ball and T-punch, please.

That Flygon is just asking to be outspeeded and OHKOed by a Milotic.

Your EVs are messed up... Pick the ones that are more suited for the pokémon. If I were to give you EV advice i'd probably check Smogon.com first.

There are Ninjask counters on almost every team. You need Cradily and/or Mr. Mime if you want to use Ninjask effectively.

Also, what bor3d said.

- Substitute
- Swords Dance
BPers suck imo.
Make it so the HP is divisible by 4, and give it the Leichi Berry.


Tyranitar (M) @ Leftovers ** Raurg
Trait: Sand Stream
EVs: 4 HP / 252 Atk / 252 Spd
Lonely Nature (+Atk, -Def)
- Crunch
- Dragon Dance
- Earthquake
- Rock Slide
Give it an Adamant Nature, then get rid of Crunch, and give it either Taunt, Substitute, Thunder Wave or if you want, a Hidden Power Physical.

Steelix (M) @ Leftovers ** Tankor
Trait: Sturdy (nubs are everywhere these days, and you aren't using the Rock Head)
EVs: 252 HP / 156 SDef with the rest going into attack
Impish Nature (+Def, -SAtk)
- Earthquake
- Rock Slide
- Roar
- Psych Up / Rest / Explosion
Psych Up is fun, Rest is usefull, and Boom is great for taking down things that might otherwise cause you trouble. You needed a Phazer, and RS is better than Iron Tail.
imo, they are the best Evs for it.


Flygon (M) @ Choice Band ** Draonman
Trait: Levitate
EVs: 4 HP / 252 Atk / 252 Spd
Naughty Nature (+Atk, -SDef) / Adamant Nature (+Atk, -SAtk)
- Hidden Power [Bug]
- Earthquake
- Fire Blast
- Rock Slide
Either Naughty or Adamant. I prefer Adamant, even with Fire Blast, but if you want it to do more, use Naughty (duh). Don't waste Evs, even if it is only 1 stat.
You might like to look at Quick Attack, but you have a seriouos Skarm Problem, so imo Keep it.


Swampert (F) @ Leftovers ** Big
Trait: Torrent
EVs: 252 HP / 80 Atk / about 40 Def / about 100 SDef and the rest in SAtk (haven't got NB in-front of me atm, so they may be a little odd)
Brave Nature (+Atk, -Spd)
- Earthquake
- Curse
- Ice Beam / Surf
- Rest


Metagross @ Leftovers ** Raura
Trait: Clear Body
EVs: 252 Atk / loads of Def and HP with some in SAtk
Brave Nature (+Atk, -Spd)

- Earthquake
- Meteor Mash
- Explosion
- Thunderpunch
Thats the set I use, and its a good set.

Rating is fine, but I'd love any and all suggestions.

You will be completely destoyed by any Bulky water, and any Physical Walls... Namely Skarm :(
