Looks great! I've never heard of Body Slam on a Jirachi before. It seems like SkarmBliss has so many counters now that it has been arround for such a long time.

Imo, make this an icebeam blissey. Because without Suicune having ice beam, you cant really kill Salamence. So, Ice Beam>toxic.

I used to use this. But it really just, doesnt work well. Substitute+leftovers would help more. If dugtrio comes in on your sub, you can ohko it before it kills you anyway. HP.... i would say grass, so you can hit claydol and swampert but fire would also help with forry.....

Well, its a very standard team, other than Doom Jirachi. You do have a DD Gyarados/Salamence weakness. You could even make your Blissey Boltbeam to fix this.

Prediction: HeYsUp is going to burst onto this topic and say there is a swampert weakness, he may have a point about this team.

The pictures are nice but the team lacks a lot of recovery and doesn't abuse easily enough. It is severely ground weak as well.

Edit: OMG, he didn't.
 
I will try the BoltBeamer Blissey, thanks x)

Still Interested in new opinions :D ~ I want a spinner, even with Magneton on team; Even 1 layer spikes can hurt Dx
 
Suggesting Ice Beam on Blissey for the sole purpose of killing Salamence is stupid. That's not what IB is for.
Right, but otherwise its also completely walled by gengar(is immune to toxic). Not to mention, this team is slightly weak to dugtrio, so it would help with that as well.

And also, your blissey evs contain 56 SAtk, and you have no Satks currently on your blissey, so if you decide to keep Stoss/toxic, be sure to fix that.
 
The team is missing a good Fight resist. I suggest to use Claydol instead of Magneton. Rapid Spin is always nice to have and Ice Beam could help you out against Salemence.

I do agree that Blissey should have Ice Beam for Gengar, I can see him fucking with you.

I'm agreeing on swapping out Magneton. Magneton is only for immediate skarm clearance when you need to setup a sweeper like Gyarados or Tauros, who both get absolutely fucked by Skarm.

No, it's if your team gets walled by Skarmory too. Generally the rule is no more than 2 of your pokes should be walled by Skarm.

If you have that issue, then something is wrong with your team building skills. The only way I can see more than two Pokemon being walled by skarm is if you're running something like Curselax, Donphan, + standard Tauntrados, and that probably makes for half of a lame team itself.

Is Skarm, Claydol, Dusclops, Celebi, Snorlax enough for you? Or are you gonna insult Tiamat's building skills?

Skarmory And Snorlax are the only things "walled" on that team. Claydol most likely has Ice Beam, Dusclops has Focus Punch or Seismic Toss or WoW or a combination of two of them, Celebi's Psychic can be controversial, but even if Skarm resists it, it doesn't tank against them all day long. Furthermore, Celebi can have either Leech Seed or Calm Mind. So to be honest, his 6th Pokemon wouldn't even have to be a Magneton. It'd be better off as a bulky water or a Zapdos. Even some kind of mixed attacker could possibly work.

When I refer to a Pokemon being "walled" I refer to it as such when the Pokemon has no options that would force the opponent to even think about making a switch upon realizing that he could lose too much health in the near future.

On another note, even if Tiamat is a good team builder (I wouldn't know) that doesn't necessarily mean he can't make a bad team every once in a while.
 
Well, a starmie could do you some good here as well. You could use it to Counter Gyarados or salamence, whichever one blissey doesnt cover..Or both. Like Rapid Spin/Recover and then the next two moveslots could be Thunderbolt/IceBeam/Surf/Psychic(for Gengar). To help with your DD weaknesses.

But also keep in mind that magneton can also be used to get rid of other Pokemon, such as Metagross(counters TTar,sort of), and other magneton, so that his skarm can have free riegn with spikes and Whirlwind.
 
Metagross is 2HKO'd by an HP Fire/ Thunderbolt, while Magneton is OHKO'D by Earthquake from Metagross, so not really a counter. Maggy can come in for a revenge kill, but this team is too sturdy for that to be happpening without tons of mistakes.
 
Revenge killing metagross is fine though, if it eliminates a CBtar switch in. Allowing CB tar to pick pokemon off, and force harder switches.
