This is my 1st time making a DP Team or any RMT for a while. What do you guys think?
 
Nope. Large Root improved draining moves (i.e. Giga Drain).

I'm assuming you're playing with item clause, so I'd make Heracross into a CBer and Salamence into an AGer. Normally I don't encourage standardization, but you should really attempt to abuse all the top-tier items. On that note, give Gengar Black Sludge. Azelf can take Lum Berry (being able to absorb a Thunder Wave might be what it needs to break a wall and sweep), then put Leftovers on Vaporeon.

This team needs a special wall. If someone manages an HP Ice Raikou, you will cry before it. Gengar seems the most expendable to me, or maybe Azelf. Torterra is okay but I think should be replaced with a better Tyranitar counter.
 
Make Azelf hold Life Orb.

Give Vaporeon Wish+Protect with 252 HP / 252 Def, Bold Nature.

Seed Bomb > Razor Leaf on Torterra.

My team is not really focused for NB, it's more focused for Pearl.

I switched Vaporeon and Azelf's items because I liked the suggestions.

Gengar I gave the Brightpowder so in the case that someone speeds before it, it can possibly miss the attack and strike with Hypnosis.
 
Brightpowder isn't worth it at all, Leftovers/Life Orb would be better choices.

Reversal anything not named Lucario/Scizor I seriously doubt working, since if anything Tyranitar is going to be even more popular. Choice Band Heracross would do a lot more overall.

Here's the new edited version of my DP Team.
 
Personally I'd go with Medicham over Gallade, it has a much better attack stat and its movepool is more diverse.

Also why the heck do you have White Herb on Mence? You're not going to keep it in that long anyway. I'd go with Life Orb.
 
I disagree with Medicham having the bigger movepool, but it soes have a much better attack stat. If I did use Medicham, suggested ideas for sets for D/P would be good.
 
A mixmence, very interesting...

I would recommend going all special if you want to put white herb on it. Put on flamethrower too, so you can kill skarmory off with no problem. Using just meteoric swarm is fun, but it won't always work.
 
Mixed Salamence is utterly pointless without Flamethrower/Fire Blast.

Dragon Pulse or Claw/Fire Blast/Brick Break/Feather Rest @ Life Orb is his most effective mixed set.

Stealth Rock on Azelf? Put Grass Rope on him, it's not like your team will last long enough to benefit from Stealth Rock.

I recommend looking through some threads on here to give you a better idea of the new items/moves/pokemon.
 
Answers to questions

-The reason I did a mixmence is because I didn't want to get into a situation where a poke with high SD came out (Blissey). If I did use Meteoric Swarm twice, with my SA being lowered two stages, I would be in a jam if I had all SAs. At least with a mixmence, I could overcome that situation.

-The reason I put Stealth Rock on Azelf, which is not the common thing to do, is because, since it can sweep easily, most of the times I attack (especially with Scheme) will be 1HKOs. With Stealth Rock on the field, the next poke that comes out will take damage, and then sweeping may become easier.

-But, I'll take the Grass Rope idea into consideration.
 
I also may replace Driftblim's T-Bolt with Thunder, but probably not.

Also, if anyone has an idea for something to replace Scissor Cross on Gallade, please feel free to tell me.
 
I may just stick with Gallade because it has a more diverse movepool and it can annoy, but I'm not a fan of giving it Scissor Cross. Maybe I'll give it Stone Edge and give something else to Torterra, but I'm not sure.
