I'll give it a shot Pokemon Showdown! Username: Higher Ground Underdog Pokemon currently working with: Stunfisk and Murkrow

No one has mentioned Sturdy Regirock yet? The ability seems redundant on such a bulky pokemon, but it allows him to take any hit bar hazards and fire back. Not sure if this new toy will be useful, but it sure beats Clear Body.

Cradily! Cradily Beneficial typing and ability allow Cradily to tank hits form this core exceptionally well and negate the power of rain through Water Absorb. (M) @ Leftovers Trait: Water Absorb EV's: 252 HP/ 4 Def/ 252 Spd Careful Nature (+SDef, -SAtk) - Protect - Recover - Sludge...

Neither Electrivire nor Poliwrath are in the current Never Used tier. Perhaps you should try a subpunching Cacturne in place for Poliwrath if you want to keep a water absorber and subpuncher. His typing may mess with the synergy of your time, but he fulfills the same role. In addition...

Misdreavus @ Eviolite Trait: Levitate EV's:252 SpA / 4 SpD / 252 Spe Nature: Timid (+Spd, -Atk) -Substitute / Taunt -Nasty Plot -Shadow Ball -Thunderbolt Immunity to Normal, Fighting, and Ground Effective stall breaker Most defensive spin blocker Can easily go more defensive with a 252 HP...

I'm new to the forums. Do I get anything for bronze class other than a pat on the back from myself?

I will stop you eventually, Harsha!

I like the sexy new avatar

If you want to keep the same vein of Zangoose, Quick Feet Ursaring does the job excellently. However, I agree with WhiteDMist that Gorebyss and Ludicolo are huge threats to your team. A specially bulky Ludicolo of your own would do wonders to patch up this weakness.

Molk, are you thinking @ Eviolite Ability: Oblivious EV's: 252 hp 252 def 4 atk Nature: Lax (+Def, -Spatk) - Rest - Sleeptalk - Earthquake - Icicle Spear If so, what teammates have you found that pair well with this set?

Simipour was okay. Never really helped in a pinch, but his decent speed and movepool were useful. If he had better bulk, he'd be a threat, but as I laddered, he just brought the team down. His Nasty Plot set was the most diverse for me, and I never found going mixed being useful. Outspeeding a...

Sashed Kadabra is an excellent revenger who has often saved my team from a sweep by his ability to survive any single hitting attack regardless of hazards and strike back with a powerful psychic. Encore and Calm Mind work wonders for support and allow him to attempt a sweep. A Life Orb set works...

Alt: Simipourn Going to use a Specs Simipour because of his decent speed and great movepool. Never been a fan of Lampent or Beheyeem, but Eelektross is an unpredictable beast.

Girafarig @ Leftovers 252 HP / 252 Def/ 4 Spd Ability: Early Bird Moveset Name: Calm Mind Tank Move 1: Calm Mind Move 2: Psychic Move 3: Rest Move 4: Energy Ball/Echoed Voice/Shadow Ball This set takes advantage of Girafarig's unique typing and Early Bird to set up Calm Minds and heal up with...

Whirlipede does require support from a Heal Bell user for longevity. In my experience, Lickilicky, Miltank, Altaria, and Misdreavus work well. Miltank especially because it can tank fire type attacks with ease. Whirlipede works okay, but I prefer Garbodor's offensive power and better special bulk.

Hypno is overall bulkier than Gardevoir in both HP and Def. However, Gardevoir has higher speed and significantly more special attack, Will-o-Wisp, and Heal Bell, and that's what really puts her over the edge. Grumpig has nothing over either of them except for a niche ability.
