Hey everybody!
As stated above, this is the first team i ever created so please don't comment anything along the lines of "ohmagad are you freaking retarded,n00b?!" but explain me why it's bad =P

My Team:


Basically, i chose mostly 5th Gen Pokemon, because 5th Gen is what got me into Wi-Fi Battles again and filled them up with what I needed.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

Bruiser/Scouter:

Mienshao @ Life-Orb
Regenerator
252 Atk / 4 HP / 252 Spe
Jolly Nature
-Move 1: Hi Jump Kick
-Move 2: U-turn
-Move 3: Stone Edge
-Move 4: Fake Out
~Used as lead most of the time, to scout/bruise with fake-out+U-Turn and basically deal high damage to anything with HJK. I don't like carrying Hidden Power on this guy because i don't really invest in SpAtk.

Special Attacker 1:

Eelektroloss @ Leftovers
Don't rememember ability's name
252 SpAtk / 4 Spe / 252 HP
Modest Nature
-Move 1: Acid Spray
-Move 2: Thunderbolt
-Move 3: Flamethrower
-Move 4: Grass Knot
~Used to counter several types and to lower SpD of those pesky stallers.

Special Attacker 2:

Starmie @ Life-Orb
Natural Cure
252 SpAtk / 4 HP / 252 Spe
Timid Nature
-Move 1: Psychokinesis
-Move 2: Hydropump/Surf (not sure yet)
-Move 3: Ice Beam
-Move 4: Rapid Spin
~Well, it's Starmie. Rapid Spin thrown in just in case I need it.

Physical Attacker/Sweeper:

Archeops @ Flight Jewel
Weakling
252 Atk / 4 HP / 252 Spe
Jolly Nature
-Move 1: Acrobatics
-Move 2: Stone Edge
-Move 3: Earthquake
-Move 4: Claw Sharpen
~To kill of Blissey or any other annoying staller quickly and set up for a sweep when i get the chance to.

Phys. Wall + Hazards:

Ferrothorn @ Leftovers
Iron Barbs
252 Def / 4 SpDef / 252 HP
Sassy Nature
-Move 1: Stealth Rocks / Spikes
-Move 2: Leech Seed
-Move 3: Gyro Ball
-Move 4: Power Whip / Curse (also not sure yet)
~Basically I mostly invest in Phys.Def to stall all those Phys. sweepers, but still get Sassy Nature to not get completely owned by special attacks.

Support+Special Wall:

Umbreon @ Leftovers
Synchronize
252 HP / 4 Spe / 252 SpDef
Calm Nature
-Move 1: Mean Look
-Move 2: Baton Pass
-Move 3: Wish
-Move 4: Taunt
~I notice myself that my Umbreon has to do alot :< It's supposed to stall some special sweepers, provide wish support for Archeops and Mean Look/Baton Pass. Also not sure if I might need more Speed investments?

------------------------

As I mentioned there's not TOO MUCH thought process put into this. I chose some Pokemon I liked and I thought would fit quite well and filled them up to get a balanced team with good type coverage.
While testing it out in Pokemon Online so far, I didn't do too bad, but i noticed that Salamence really raped me :/

I would also like to know what people think of my thoughts in general, not this team in particular. Am I on the right path? Did I think completely the wrong way? xD

Thanks in advance for every response!

3. Have some actual words in your post beyond your six Pokemon and their moves. Not following this makes your post quite boring to read and rate. All Pokemon should have a good reason for being in your team anyway, so why not post that reason? If you are having trouble with this one, start by giving an explanation for each team member. Why are they there? What role do they serve? How do you get them in? Then, give an explanation of how you would open with the team and how you would go about using it. All of these things help people rate your team and allow us to offer more helpful advice.
Your descriptions are lacking, which means you are violating the above quoted RMT rule. If you wish to remedy this problem, explain your reasoning behind each Pokemon and why they work on your team more thoroughly. Try to aim for 3-4 sentences with your descriptions. I recommend lurking through the RMT Archive in order to see examples of what we're looking for in an RMT! If you fix this problem, private message me indicating that you have done so. Once you've done that, I will unlock your thread.
