Thanks for the in-depth stuff! Would lacking a Fighting-type be bad though? Maybe I can give Snorlax Brick Break, but it's not as reliable. It's fine though, thanks! After four people's views on this, it feels like my team's not too bad, haha.

Tentacruel: I mean, I see how you got him as your lead, but you also use him as Spin support for your volcarona and you might want to reserve him for later on your team. nonetheless pretty good. Steels aren't gonna want to switch into Tentacruel to start out with. but its up to you. consider...

Thanks for the tips. I'm actually using Conkeldurr on another team I have, which is why I'm not using him here. Would a Technician+Mach Punch Hitmontop be alright instead of Machamp then? And for Snorlax, I have a Volcarona with Fire moves, so what about Ice Punch? Also, wouldn't Return be a...

Brick Break and Body Slam gets me completely walled by a Ghost and I'd have wasted my time setting up. A RestTalk Snorlax was definitely one of my options, but I decided against it because I don't know how to use it well. Do people usually stop Sleep Talking after like the second or third turn...

Oh right, thanks for that!

Tentacruel@Black Sludge Bold 252HP/240Def/16Spe -Toxic Spikes -Rapid Spin -Scald -HP Fire My lead. He'll probably be able to set up two layers of Toxic Spikes due to his bulk with this EV spread. He is also my Rapid Spinner, which is very important because I'm running Volcarona with this...

Thank you all for your suggestions. I will replace Froslass and Hitmontop. I'd like to keep Gengar though, as it has helped me a lot.

I have a Conkeldurr, but I wanted to try out a team that doesn't have too many "overused" (not the tier) Pokemon. Conkeldurr is definitely a powerhouse as you say, but unless there's something really wrong with Hitmontop, I'd prefer not to use him. And there's no way I'm giving Conkeldurr max...

Oh yeah sorry I forgot to mention that I don't have Life Orb on Hitmontop because Gengar has it. I like to play with Item Clause. Maybe an Expert Belt for Hitmontop? 20% isn't as good as 30%, but I'm pretty sure Tyranitar can't survive a Close Combat. I'm still new at this though, so I'm not too...

Thanks for the replies guys. Hitmontop is running Technician to get the most out of Mach Punch and Fake Out. Should I give Gengar 0 HP IVs as well?Good eye with the Tyranitar weakness. A specially defensive Tyranitar probably can't take out my Hitmontop though. But in case it can, should I...

¬¬Froslass@Focus Sash Timid 4HP/252SpAtk/252Spe -Spikes -Destiny Bond -Taunt -Ice Beam Typical lead for a Froslass. If I suspect an entry hazard, I’ll go for Taunt. If not, then I’ll just put out a layer of Spikes. I probably won’t survive another attack which is why Destiny Bond is there...
