Like calum said, the only thing not useless on your team is Scarf Nidoking. That tells me that you need to reconstruct your team and use guides, particularly Smogon, to help you out because Smogon has been helping other out.
Well when you call people noobs, just expect someone to insult/embarass you, especially from those who know more about competitively battling than you do.

can u honestly say that uv tried these pkmn in my team n failed? or r u just being naive jerk-offs and just saying wut u want without even considering these strats. If you would read my description i give a complete reason as to why i chose these. So give me advice on wut else i could do. dont dis wut i have up there unless uv personally experienced that pkmn failing

I have figured out the EVs for my Kanto team pokemon. I hope I get good comments on this team. Well, here goes...
ELECTRODE@Focus Sash
Ability: Soundproof
Nature: Timid
HP: 16/Def: 140/SpAttk: 40/SpDef: 60/Spd: 252
Moveset:
Hp Ice/Grass
Thunderbolt
Thunder Wave
Explosion
With Magnet Rise, Electrode loses all weaknesses and nothing is super effective. Thunder Wave slows down the other pokemon for the rest of my team. Explosion gives me a last resort option when my HP gets low.
This thing fails hard as a lead unless it setting up RD
CLEFABLE@Life Orb
Ability: Magic Guard
Nature: Modest
HP: 48/Def: 172/SpAttk: 252/SpDef:36
Moveset:
Rest
Snore
Cosmic Power
Shadow Ball
With Magic Guard, Life orb doesn't take any of clef's health away while still raising damage x1.3. With rest it allows me to replenish my HP when it gets low and with this UU bliss it'll take alot to do even that. Cosmic Power raises defense and special defense while the enemy is trying hard to lower my HP. Shadow ball will take care of any ghost type that gets in the way since even a gengar would have trouble with clefable.
WOW! this set is bad. if you want a sweeping claff try the toxic orb facade set on SMOGON
NIDOKING@Choice Scarf
Ability: Rivalry
Nature: Naive
HP: 52/Def: 140/SpAttk: 216/Spd: 100
Moveset:
Flamethrower
Megahorn
Ice Punch
Earth Power
My prized possession. For this pokemon I will not be taking any suggestions and/or critiques about this selection. With Choice scarf nidoking has enough speed to outrun a max speed ninjask (Without any boosts). When sent out against a male pokemon this is a terror to be terrored. Flamethrower takes care of all pesky grass walls along with annoying bug sweepers. Ice punch takes out any dragon other than kingdra, and sends pokemon like gliscor, swellow, honchkrow, and hippowdon crying back to their mommies. Megahorn is a quick kill for psychics like noctowl, espion, jynx, and mr. mime. low accuracy but doable. Earth power pwns the big steel walls like steelix, bastiodon, heatproof bronzong, aggron, and other tanks like ttar, rhyperior, golem, and relicanth. It also takes care of lucarios and magnezones along with probopasses and solrock.
Ok getting better but still not good in OU. What do the evs do?
WEEZING@Leftovers
Ability: Levitate
Nature: Bold
HP: 252/Def: 252/SpAttk:6
Moveset:
Pain Split
Will-o-wisp
Thunderbolt
Fire blast/Flamethrower
The annoying big ball. Levitate makes it impervious to ground types which are always the big fail in defensive walls. Will-o-wisp cutting the enemy's attack in half adds more to your enemy's demise. Sludge bomb is a strong move combined with STAB for a hard hit even if its not super effective. Thunderbolt takes care of those little birdies that peck at weezing like pidgeot, swellow, fearow, chatot, pelliper, gyarados, bird trio. plus pesky waterwalls like blastoise, vaporeon, wailord, gyarados (again), seaking, lapras, and starmie.
Now you can counter heracross and scizor with ease
VAPOREON@Leftovers
Ability: Water Absorb
Nature: Bold
HP: 252/Def: 252/SpAttk: 6
Moveset:
Wish
Protect
Surf
Ice Beam/Toxic/Hp electric
Wish and aqua ring allow vaporeon to last in a battle while dishing out some nasty special moves. Surf at 142 base power (including STAB) does quite a bit of damage to those without water absorb or resistance to water. Ice beam allows vaporeon to have a chance at freezing its foes for a standing chance against sweepers and annoying stallers.
Great wish passer protect is needed for the free wish recovery
MACHAMP@Expert Belt
Ability: No Guard
Nature: Adamant
Attk: 252/Def: 136/SpDef: 120
Moveset:
Dynamic Punch
Ice Punch
Earthquake
Thunderpunch
Dynamic punch confuses the foe as well as provide a devastating blow. Thunderpunch and Ice punch provide coverage against flying types, ground types, water types, grass types, dragon types, and others. Earthquake takes care of rock and steel as well as creating a scare into foes that dont usually have anything to be afraid of a.k.a. Electivire, nidoking, nidoqueen, drapion, and others.
Ok but SMOGON has much better sets
That was my team. If you have any suggestions please do say so. I do not object to others opinions unless the concede my own. Please comment very much.
Thankyou
Overall this team is horrible and is countered and/or beaten by everything in the metagame. I recommend going to smogon and learning....have a nice day =)
It doesn't have anything to do with people trying out those pokemon. It all comes to their knowledge of competitively battling. I mean on Vaporeon, there's no point to having Aqua Ring and Wish when you can just have Wish along with Protect to do some Wish passing, healing Vaporeon and others on your team.
ok get the **** off this thread i CLEARLY stated NOT TO INSULT!
I really hope you are the troll I first suspected you to be. Otherwise I can only but picture you in a happy little class that writes with pretty crayons.
And sheerly to avoid infractions on the offchance Reno can't see through your ridiculous persona, saying that Weezing's Sludge Bomb has 90 base power (in response to my earlier comment) neglects the fact that, in general, using Flamethrower / Thunderbolt generally cater to Weezing's role in a team moreso than the awful coverage provided by Sludge Bomb.

This is exactly what I mean. You can't take criticism lightly. Why even bother if you can't take any kind of criticism without insulting someone?
ExplodingMuk
Cheese and Crackers
Clearly you know nothing about competitive battling. You need to go to smogon. NEED. This team is Crap. Spam. Unworthy of a rate from anyone. You are not even what you say you are, i.e., a self-proclaimed "Semi-Pro." You are the noob.
Shuckle the Snail
<--1400 Eggs so far
I could beat you with only one of my pokemon in my team.

Look at this thread. Seriously, OP, you gotta be insane. No other reasonable explanation.
