With 4 Pokemon weak to Ground types and 4 Pokemon weak to Water types, this team has weaknesses to 2 very common types in the metagame. I would replace Blaziken with another late-game sweeper to something else to lower those weaknesses and also as you don't seem too fond of it yourself. I...

You have a slight water weakness and Ground, as 3 Pokemon are hit super effectively by both types. By adding Altaria to your team, Ground is is certianly less bothersome, as is Water, which Altaria resists. It would certainly be a good choice to add to your team.

Donphan is finally UU, I don't know it wasn't there before, but I feel it will make a great impact on UU, as will Duggy. And I love Tangrowth, so I'm really glad that's gone up. Kind of suprised Primeape went to NU, seeing as I saw that a bit in RMTs and on Shoddy. Capefeather has made a good...

Seeing as your team has a glaring Fire type weakness, why not add Heatran to your team? He's part Steel, as you will well know and he could soak up any Fire type attacks. He could then hit back with an Earth Power or something on the opponent. I wouldn't know who for you to replace though, and...

To remove a Choice item from your team, how about putting Life Orb on your Infernape? It would give you that extra boost you need, whilst keeping your options open. Vaporeon can also Wish Infernape's Life Orb damage away aswell. Gyarados seems like a weakness at first, yet Rotom stops it...

Trick is seriously popular due to the Platinum Tutor move, meaning more than just Psychics can get it. And if a Poison type isn't holding Black Sludge, then whatever is holding it is hurt by it, meaning for eg; Electivire would be hindered by it. I was just making a suggestion and it seems you...

I thought that I wouldn't a threat list to do my rate, so I'll go ahead and rate without one. :) Your team has major weaknesses if certain members of the team are down. For example, without Heatran, Fire hurts this team bad. Without Gengar and Azelf gone, Ground type moves could punish this...

ThePowerWithin probably knows more than me, but with Black Sludge on Gengar, it's just there ready to be Tricked and then passed onto another of your team members such as Electivire. However, you do have 4 Poison resists, so you may get away with that. The team does have great synergy...

This is certainly an excellent team, and even Marriland's Team Builder shows that certain Pokemon's threats are easily (in most cases) handled by it's teammates. This team has superb synergy, however looking at your threat list, I've managed to find something for you to think about. Now, you...

I have a trojan and Shoddy won't open, as it just says the application cannot be opened. I'm wondering how I can get rid of this Trojan and how I can start playing Shoddy again? Edit: I've checked the Shoddy site and I have the Google Trojan. I understand some people are not in the position to...

SR really is a must in today's metagame, so I'd advise slotting that in somewhere. Also, 3 Pokemon are weak to ground, and as Super Effective pointed out, either Electivire or Infernape could be replaced for Mixmence. I would replace Electivire due to Infernape's superior speed (and without a...

Hia there. Excellent team, only Fighting hits more than 1 Pokemon for Super-effective damage, and then Rotom backs up the team by switching in effortlessly on those types of attacks. This team is great, although if you feel like your having trouble with Rain Dance teams, I'd advise T-Wave over...

I think that this team is pretty excellent in terms of team building. Firstly, only 1 Pokemon has a 4 times weakness to something, which is Flygon, who is 4x weak to Ice. However, 4 Pokemon are 2x resistant to Ice, meaning that it should be easy enough to switch Flygon out when you suspect an...

The Dusknoir set mentioned from Rezor is certainly a fine choice when helps the team in terms of adding a priority move, whilst still keep the excellent Will-O-Wisp to help cripple Physical attackers. Heracross is a must over Drapion I believe. Drapion doesn't seem to be doing much and as...

I think those drastic replacements may be un-necessary for the most part. I think Swampert is a competent lead and really gives this team some nice support with Roar and SR. Emerald Blaze made a great point in making Gallade a Dual Support set. This makes him not only more original, but it...
