Hey there PokeTrainerRed, nice sand team you got going on. Ah, so this is another first post RMT. I always though that most people lurk around this site and then produce an RMT, but it's their decision. Alright, so let's get on to rating this team. Team seems pretty standard with the sets and EV spreads. I'm going to try to rate this team to the best of my ability. Alright as usual, I'm going to suggest some changes in the EV and moveset department, keep note that these changes may include changing around a Pokemon or two, so take these changes into consideration and test them out before implementing them in this thread. Okay, we have to change our good friend Scizors EV spread to one of 248 HP / 252 Atk / 8 SpD over your current spread. The aftermentioned spread helps Scizor with taking on some weak special attacks that may be aimed at it. Now, let's move on to our thorny rose Ferrothorn. With Ferrothorn, you should be using the Standard set over your current choice. This is Ferrothorns flagship set in BW2 as it can wreak havoc on the OU metagame with its walling capabilities. Moving on to our good friend Gliscor, you should change its EV spread to 252 HP / 184 Def / 72 Spe over your current spread. The aftermentioned spread helps Gliscor outspeed max speed Tyranitar and every Adamant Breloom, while still maintaining that crucial physical bulk to handle Conkeldurr. Also on Gliscor, you should use Protect over Substitute. With Protect, Gliscor stay in good health while sweeping the opponents team. Last but definitely not least, you should use Stone Edge over Smack Down on Landorus. Stone Edge has a 12.5% chance to crit while its base power gets boosted by 30% while in the sand. Well, that's all I can say for now. I really hope that my advice helped. Have fun and good luck with your team!
