I know about a Hera weakness which I have tried to cover with Gliscor.

Any suggestions for EVs are appreciated.

Gliscor itself counters Heracross like no other. Don't worry about trying to get it with Empoleon.

Anyway, as for sets:

Tyranitar
- Dark Pulse
- Stone Edge
- Thunderbolt
- Earthquake

I think that's the set. I'm not completely sure.

Garchomp
- Swords Dance
- Earthquake
- Dragon Claw/Outrage
- Fire Blast/Fire Fang

STAB + Fire attack. FB 2HKOs Skarm I think, Fire Fang 2HKOs after a SD.

Rhyperior
- Earthquake
- Stone Edge
- Megahorn
- Arm Hammer

Gliscor
- Swords Dance
- Roost
- Aerial Ace
- Earthquake

Lucario
- Swords Dance
- Close Combat
- Stone Edge
- Me First/Extremespeed/Crunch

Empoleon
- Surf
- Ice Beam
- Stealth Rock
- Yawn

That's all I can think of to say.

Ok then.

I was thinking about Dark Pulse on tyranitar but it seems kind of stupid to me. After all its the same power as Crunch and Tyranitar has huge attack.

I guess Modest works for Empoleon for that moveset but I had been going for the Drill Peck and didnt want to sacrfice any attack. Thanks i will change both those things.

I like the Garchomp moves and I think that should be helpful.

I was gonna teach Gliscor earthquake but then I thought I have a kind of gaping grass weakness so X scissor would help. I guess Night Slash didn't make any sense so I will change that.


I don't want arm hammer. I don't see how it helps Rhyperior at all, but if somebody points out a big reason why that i am totally missing i will feel really stupid and change it.


Lucario doesn't change. I have used this moveset and the pokemon before and it works very well. he covers his fighting weakness with a great special attack and psychic, and he is my special sweeper. I have mostly physical moves and i figured a strong special sweeper would be very helpful.
 
-Why on earth does Rhypherior have a -Atk nature? Either Adamant or Impish will do. Fling is also pointless filler for it when Mega HOrn/Stone edge/Earthquake takes care of everything

-Drayano, Garchomp wants Fire Blast. It has been definatively proven that Fire fang is a waste of space on him when a STAB earthquake does more damage than a super effective Fire Fang. I'd also much rather take crunch due to Garchomp's other counters being weak to it, and Skarm becoming a little less common.
 
In case you didn't read all thw way to the bottom of the post, I cover Hera with Gliscor counter.
FYI Brave is +Atk and -Speed. I think it fits Rhyperior great.

Other than that thanks I changed Garchomp's attack to Crunch its a good idea.
 
Umm Drayano that is not Tyranitar

Choice Band: Crunch / Earthquake / Stone Edge / Filler

I'm not sure on filler...Focus Punch has always been good.
 
Alright...I am kind of leary of Choice items because I don't like being stuck with one move. I was also wondering, were you telling me that is what I should do or just telling another person that their typical moveset is wrong because the point here is to rate and help me, not correct other raters.

Pursuit on what?
 
Your team lacks a Special Wall (Blissey) Replace one of those sweepers for Bliss.

Pursuit on Ttar.
 
Alright.

Should Empoleon go? Then I need to set up another Stealth Rocker, and I guess the typical Blissey moveset is what I should use, right?

Blissey
I dont know Evs
Nat Cure
Softboiled
Ice Beam
T-Bolt
Toxic?
 
Yeah I put Pursuit on TTar. I like the idea of maybe forcing a switch right off and hittin em with it. I used to have a filler move anyway so I like this better.

PLEASE HELP WITH ITEMS

There's always more than one set for a Pokémon. ;/ The one I posted works too.
 
Hey please don't pick at each other.

What should TTar have if I don't want a Choice item?

Don't need Brave, you don't use special attacks, so use a -sp att nature. Simple.

Use Impish. Use Adamant on Tyranitar with Choice Band, Stone Edge, Crunch, Pursuit, EQ.

PURSUIT.............. not filler. lol Choice Band + STAB + Doubled power + TTar's huge attack = KO on the switch.
 
I see my other rate didn't go through, thank god someone caught you on the brave thing(which I mistook for bold)

Flash Cannon is really filler on Lucario with Aurasphere having the same coverage. Use dark pulse or Shadow Ball.

Gliscor wants roost>X-scissor to be a more effective Heracross counter. It also wants Impish

Your Skarmory wants to be this

Skarmory @ leftovers
Impish
-Whirl Wind
-Drill Peck
-Spikes
-Roost

If your using Skarm, you should use it to spike and pHaze.
