This is my future team, i just want to see if it's good enough :)

Firstoff, this is ingame, the HMs STAY on the Pokemon I've given them to, also, i don't do natures and therefore i won't write them and any suggestions on natures will be ignored.

Here's my team:

Empoleon *Bubble Jet*
Trait: Torrent
-Surf
-Ice Beam
-Grass Knot
-Earthquake

My Piplups SAtk and Atk is equal, so i might as well make use of Earthquake on it. Empoleon is my main means of Water-Travel.


Staraptor *Raptor*
Trait: Intimidate
-Return
-Brave Bird
-Close Combat
-Fly

My speedy bird, and my quick traverler with Fly. Nice Atk and Spd Stats, too.


Roserade *WildVine*
Trait: Natural Cure/Poison Point
-Energy Ball
-Sludge Bomb
-Shadow Ball
-Stun Spore/Cut

Can't be bothered to breed for Sleep Powder, so i'll probably use Stun Spore for a status infliction move. If i have Poison Point then i'll use Cut, however.
Nice SAtk, Spd and SDef.


Dialga *Diaruga*
Trait: Pressure
-Dragon Pulse
-Aura Sphere
-Flamethrower
-Thunderbolt/Earth Power

This is basicly my Box Legend, I like Dialga but haven't used it before, so i'll be using it this time to see how it is. I prefer the japanese name however, so that is what it's nickname will be :)



Anyway, that's as far as I got. The other HM moves will be given to my Bibarel (nicknames HMSlave). Apart from DeFog, which i'll give to a random Wingull...

So, if you have any other critisism or want to suggest a Pokemon, then feel free to :)

Staraptor *Raptor*
Trait: Intimidate
-Return
-Brave Bird (This should be changed with U-turn, to take advantage of Intimidate)
-Close Combat
-Fly

My speedy bird, and my quick traverler with Fly. Nice Atk and Spd Stats, too.


Roserade *WildVine*
Trait: Natural Cure/Poison Point
-Energy Ball
-Sludge Bomb
-Shadow Ball
-Stun Spore/Cut (Change to Leech Seed, Stun Spore isnt necessary if your Roserade is fast)

Can't be bothered to breed for Sleep Powder, so i'll probably use Stun Spore for a status infliction move. If i have Poison Point then i'll use Cut, however.
Nice SAtk, Spd and SDef.

My suggestions written next to Bold text
 
Ingame, practically anything is good enough x3 But yeah, your team looks fine.

Just a few suggestions: Brave Bird is a powerful move, but the recoil can be crippling, and Aerial Ace can take care of things ingame. I guess it's a matter of personal preference; power or HP.

Aromatherapy and Magical Leaf can be good on Roserade, so can Petal Dance if you don't mind the confusion.

I've never used Dialga or Empoleon, so I won't comment on those.

Apart from Earthquake, your team has no moves to hit Electrics hard, so you might want to consider putting in a Ground type. Hippopotas might not be a good choice, though, because of his permanent Sandstorm. Defog isn't really necessary, so you don't need to carry your Wingull everywhere, which frees up a slot.
 
You should change Dialga's Flamethrower or Tbolt, and switch one for Roar Of Time.

Thanks for the suggestions, Xyden and Blue Houndoom :)

Just incase anyone's wondering, I'm currently aat Solaceon Town with my Lv32 Prinplup, Lv28 Staravia and Lv24 Roselia. I have 2 badges and one ribbon (Normal-Rank-Cool-Contest-Winner one on Staravia :P)

Anyway, I still need suggestions on other Pokemon to use, I just caught a Jolly Golbat, that's a good nature and it's Atk is pretty good too, so i was wondering if it was worth using (?)

And Blue Houndoom, I think i'll use Earth Power on Dialga instead of Thunderbolt to help cover up my teams Electric-Weakness.


Thabks for the help, guys :)
 
for roserade i reccomend aroma therapy or synthesis. Empoleom should not have grass knot as most of what its good against wont be fighting empoleon, DOnt put cut on roserade its physical atk stinks.
 
i would suggest you to have electric type or fire type such as electivire, magnezone, or luxray. for fire type you could have arcanine or magmorter
 
Thanks for the suggestions people (or aliens, or whatever wierd twisted sprcies you are :))

For Larry, this is ingame, and the team i'm working on is for before i get the national dex, therefore i won't have access to Magnezone, Electivire, Magmortar or Arcanine.

I was, however considering using Luxray (I would have nicknamed it 'Lust') but i desided not too, as i dislike breeding, and without breeding, Luxray is crap!

I will howver have an elctric type once i get the National Dex, I've desided to use a Manectric. It'll know Thunderbolt, Flamethrower and two other moves of which i haven't desided on yet, i also still need nickname for it, any suggestions?
 
YAY! WOOOO!

hehe, sorry for double poting but this couldn't wait! I'm so very happy!

Well, for you who are currently thinking 'omg, this guy's a nutcase' i'm actually really happy because of an achievement i've made :)

Basicly, I was searching for a Hippoptas in the Ruin Maniac's Cave, killing all the annoying Geoddeswith my Roselia, after beating about 10 or so Geodudes I came across a familiar Pokemon, I came across another Geodude. However, this wasn't your ordinary Geodude, it was a Golden one, and therefore, a shiny pokemon!

Obviously, I quickly caught the Shiny Geodude and became very happy, especially when i foound out it knew Selfdestruct and could have killed itself at any moment.

So, i think this is my biggest achievement on my game so far, however, i won't be usin it as i have no access to trading and i don't like the look of Graverler at all, so it will now rot in my PC :)

Anyway, I got my 3rd Badge and another ribbon (Normal-Rank-Beauty-Contest-Winner on Empoleon), and i evolved my Prinplup, too. Yay!

congradulations on your shiny Geodude. It's very rare that people catch Shinies without the PokeRadar, nowadays.

Anyway, I can't suggest much on your move sets, they seem to be good for ingame.

However, Hidden Power, Extrasensory, Weather Ball (if you're likely to have weather support on your team) can all go on Roserade as it's last move. So could Stun Spore, Sleep Powder, Toxic, Aromatheropy and Leech Seed for support.

I've desided to use a Manectric. It'll know Thunderbolt, Flamethrower and two other moves of which i haven't desided on yet, i also still need nickname for it, any suggestions?

For the Manectric you plan to use, Roar, Hidden Power, Substitute, Toxic and Thunder-Wave could be used as the last two moves. As for the nickname, I can't really think of one off the spot...
 
Thanks for the advice, everyone! Well, I now own Dialga and i'm training it up for the Pokemon League. I own all 8 badges, too, and i have many ribbons (contest ribbons, footprint ribbons, effort ribbons and a few week-day ribbons from the girl in sunnyshore city).

Also, I've desided that i'm not going to use Manectric anymore. Instead I will use a Rotom, nicknamed Virus. It will know Thunderbolt, Shadow Ball and probably Thunder Wave and one other undesided move (maybe Shock Wave or Trick...?)

:)
 
You cannot get Manectric or Rotom before the Elite 4, but if you mean for after than ya, use Rotom
