GENIUS!!! lolnot. You can't set up spikes because anything can come in, taunt you, and then you'll be forced to struggle or switch, both of which would allow the opponent to set up. and uhhh, well, you instantly lose to other steels. Which is definitely not good. This thing is epic setup bait.
 
Shadow Claw is completely useless and should be replaced by Bulldoze as this allows you to hit Fire/Steel-types during their switch into battle.

@Marwyn
So much text use the
function; Just quote this post to see how to do it

Just makes things look neater.

However to answer your question you have half a (Shudder)Sandstorm team there so you could go in that direction. If you do want a sandstorm team There's a few over in the RMT section look at those for ideas.

Yeah, seconding Oblivion IX on this, use bulldoze instead of Shadow Claw, otherwise things like magnezone and the ever common Heatran will have a free invitation on you; assuming you predict correctly it will deal ~80% in both.

That considered you will have problems with Scizor, Skarmory, Bronzong, Zapdos, and opposing Ferrothorn, you will also lose the leech seed recover that keeps ferro healthy through the match, anyhow, I suggest finding ways to deal with the mentioned poke's.

Proofread your posts.

But if you read what I said within the box when you go to quote a person you can see everything they did in their post. Including how to

Seriously.... It's not rocket science.

Don't people read anything.....


But Well it's up to you, Either Hippodown or Tyranitar as your lead. Skarmory will make a decent physical wall if you need (considering it won't take residual damage)

You can use Metagross if you want but you're adding to a fire weakness without having something to deal with it.

Keep Hydreigon and give it a scarf decent revenge killer and with a scarf won't be staying in long enough to warrant worrying about the residual sandstorm damage.

So what you really need is something to take Fighting and even maybe absorb those Those fire attacks.. So maybe a Gastradon with stormdrain and a Reuniclus with magic guard to deal with those fighting types.
 
ok thanks
btw i dont have any dream world pokes

how about a team that cover each other's weaknesses
any suggestions for the core
then i will EV train what i need that i dont have
 
Whenever i go to the smogon server(edit : on po), i get this statement..
Your client version (1.0.21) doesn't match with the server's (1.0.20).
Whats up with that?
Is drizzle + swift swim banned in ubers?
Assume that i have a balloon heatran behind a sub.Will the balloon break if the sub takes a hit?
Does dragonite's sub get the defensive boost of multiscale, if it has full hp?
If u use trick or knock off on eviolite chansey, then will it lose the defensive boosts?
Thank u for reading..:-)

The Smogon server is using an older version because it is less sensitive to crashes

No.

The balloon will break (That's why SubTales failed for me)

Yes it will.

Click to expand...
Yes.
 
my team consists of the following:
Zoroark, Salamence, Haxorus, Cloyster an Swampert, any recomendations for what i should make my 6th?

Might I recommend Balloon Heatran? Your team has a gaping weakness to the Ice-type, with the Dragons you have on there.
Click to expand...
and where do you suggest i find said heatran? i cant use my obe on diamond cuz it hasnt been EV trained (im new to EVing but hae caught on quickly) but your right, it also fills the grass weakness between seampert and cloyster
