Not really. Throw Latias out against something it is good against and use Trick on the switch. You'd be surprised how close to useless a Specs Scizor is. :P But for this set, I think a LO on Latias is better. You already have a Trick Pokemon on your team with Rotom-H, and it Tricks the same...

You could consider and Iron Ball for Steelix so he can do tremendous amounts of damage with Gyro Ball, though the lack of recovery may prove to be too costly. I've used it and was impressed by it. I believe a Speed reducing nature and no Speed EV's puts his Speed low enough for Gyro Ball to be...

I got your PM and to be honest, the team is looking excellent. Gliscor looks good for your team but have you considered using Spiritomb in its place? Spiritomb is probably the best counter to your number 1 threat Machamp and can help against two other problems Huntofthelion mentioned: DD-dos...

I would definitely drop Tentacruel before dropping Vaporeon. Vaporeon passes around Wish support and can help in keeping Swampert alive for longer, which seems to be a concern for you ( Leftovers on Swampert would make him last longer as well, but it's your call).

I'll have to try out that Dusknoir set but I'm kinda biased when it comes to Dusknoir since I love Spiritomb much more in vitually every category. I'll let the more seasoned Smogon users give their thoughts on your Dusknoir since I am by no means an expert on him :P Interesting Vaporeon, but I...

For those threats you could try a Latias over Porygon 2. On the plus side, she can take Water attacks like a pro and she can likely manage to take a Grass move. Her Dragon attacks make short work of Kingdra and I'm thinking she can severely dent Machamp with a Draco Meteor/Dragon Pulse after a...

Alakazam's Inner Focus would be an excellent way to handle all the Fake Outs from guys like Infernape and Ambipom, though I'm not sure what set I should run or if I really want 3 Psychic types on my team. I'm heavily considering Spiritomb as a replacement lead for Typhlosion. Fake Out...

Yeah, Slowbro would be a nice choice. Resists Psychic attacks aimed at Hariyama, Fire moves aimed at Sceptile and Water moves aimed at Claydol/Typhlosion. I'll use him. @ Son of Shadoo, what lead should I use then?

Aw, 250 views and not a single reply? It can't be that bad.

Give Vaporeon Wish over Shadow Ball so it can heal itself (with Protect, it is basically an auto-heal) and teammates. HP for Vappy should be Electric so other Waters do not wall you and because it is excellent for handling Gyarados. With Vaporeon providing healing support, you can swap Lunar...

After spending ages on the OU tier and drastically improving my OU team (epic props to Haunter and the others for helping me with that), I felt some change was needed. Instead of building a team just for UU my goal was to build a group that could take on OU and UU teams. This team has held up...

LeadPert looks good, though you put Earth Power as his move by mistake. I would recommend using Spiritomb to counter some of your threats. It's a decent wall and with Pressure Machamp's PP for Dynamicpunch will be gone quicker. He could replace Starmie if you want. Other things he counters in...

Once Mamoswine loses his Sash, Weavile can present a large problem for your team. His Ice move will eliminate Salamence and Magnezone/Blissey/Lucario will not enjoy taking a Brick Break (Ice Shard can ruin Luke's Endure if the Weavile is Sashed). Keep Gyarados alive and healthy so he can give...

You really don't need two dual-screeners, in my opinion. I'd replace Starmie but if you plan on keeping him give him Surf not only for a reliable STAB but also because it could potentially be boosted by Kingra's rain. Consider replacing Starmie with Celebi, who can still provide some screen...

Every team could use entry hazards so I would get some. You could replace Taunt or Explosion with Stealth Rock on Azelf if you want to continue the Dual Screen strategy. Consider a Stealth Rock Gliscor set since he would benefit from T-Tar Sandstream and could be a decent wall. Salamence...
