Welcome to Smogon! Take a moment to read the Introduction to Smogon for a run-down on everything Smogon, and make sure you take some time to read the global rules.
Psychic really doesn't have great coverage anyways. If you want you could run a more offensive Starmie set:
Starmie@Life Orb
Timid~Natural Cure
252 Sp Atk/ 252 Spe/ 252 HP
~Surf
~Ice Beam
~Thunderbolt
~Grass Knot/Psychic
IMO Celebi is a member on your team that isn't helping you much. It provides Heatran with a good partner when looking at Synergy but Gyarados does that as well. All Celebi is really doing is providing a weak Zapdos link.
Flygon>Celebi would be my choice.
If you do end up making that switch you...
One glaring problem i see is a lack of Stealth Rocks. Why don't you try a Passho Berry Heatran? Not only will it set up rocks for you but it can also help deal with Kingdra since it barely takes about half from +1 Waterfall and can leave a mark with Dragon Pulse or the explosion. Here is the...
Nice Team! I'm kind of pressed for now so the only minor nip-tick i can suggest is using U-turn > Grass knot on Azelf. Not only does U-turn hit Starmie decently it allows you to have a viable scout option.
Also I don't see a point in having Magnezone on the team. It seems like dead weight...
Not exactly. Chesto Resto Kingdra is fairly common now it has pretty much become the new standard. The fact that you think "suprise" only occurs in uncommon move sets is completely absurd. Look at Infernape. You may expect a Physical Mix set and watch it Nasty Plot. Yet both are fairly common...
Why are people so crazed on using "uncommon" or "original" move-sets? Logic VS Originality with two equally skilled players will have logic winning every day of the week. Also, i agree with Moo a lot of these sets are not that uncommon you may want to re-think that as a lot of these are fairly...
How is this thread not locked yet? short descriptions and massive bumping lol.
I would try using a MixApe as a late game cleanup. Also switching Mussel-band>LO even after recoil LO is definitely worth it. LO will net you some KO's you wouldn't have been able to get otherwise. As long as you...
Hey! This is a pretty good team and most others have covered everything there is to be covered. The only thing i can really stress is completing the Grass/Water/Fire core. Replace Suicune with a sub seed Shaymin/Offensive Shaymin. SubSeed has more bulk while Offensive has a much stronger attack...
Yeah, I should rephrase that. I meant with the current bulky Heracross he is running Scizor will do better at being a Choice Bander. Also Scizor has a useful priority, scouting move and technician, .
And yes, the theme of the team is choice items.
Got your PM! So far i have to say that most other raters have this team covered however its still a great team. One of the biggest things i can see to be a problem is Blissey. Usally teams like this are clearly offensive teams and your going to find Bliss is only going to be slowing you down...
Hey! Have to say im really impressed with the team. Congratulations on the high ranking with such a original team. To be honest i can't find much wrong with it as its almost a perfect choice team. Anyways on to the rate...
First off i don't see a point in Heracross. True it has some decent...
I don't really understand how Swampert is a huge threat to you. If Heatran can't ko it usually gets up rocks and does a considerable amount of damage as well. Then something like Breloom or even Gyarados can come in and force it out. You could try the above mentioned Life orb lead if you think...
