The Xatu Warrior
i must say, rather then the empoleon (which even then, i wont fuss over due to its decent typing) this team is fairly decent for a beginners team(i mean, at least you arent using ou pokes and crying over legends like most of the lower ladder seems to do >.>), however, you will find a bit higher up on the ladder that imposter chansey/blissey is going to make you hate its guts. its kind of something you need to work your team around, by adding slight modifications to your team. allthough i wont force you to do so, im just saying, imposter is REALLY good in the meta, and a lot of people use it, and henceforth eventually you will want to fix your team to help that issue.I'm just getting into BH after being afraid of it for so long, and I'm having a lot of fun despite only having played five battles. I haven't lost yet. I've been using a balance team with Prankster Giratina for Defog support, Magic Bounce Empoleon for Stealth Rock support, Mega Manectric for a fast Mold Breaker Taunt, and strong priority users in Mega Mewtwo X and Mega Gyarados.
