Welcome to Smogon! Take a moment to read the Introduction to Smogon for a run-down on everything Smogon, and make sure you take some time to read the global rules.
Forgive me for asking but why is fusion bolt necessary? I considered Outrage over Dragon Claw but don't like the idea of getting looked in which is mainly why I chose the sub set over the scarfed in the first place. I like the versatility of the sub set as well as difficulty to wall besides the...
This is now my second RMT on here so hopefully I can keep improving. I started this team with Latios to play against my friend who was anti-draco meteor to show him it was good. I decided to add Kyurem-B for a more physical dragon and thus began the reign of the Double Barreled Dragon.
Latios...
Great thought. I never really considered it but a fast taunt would be really nice. Everything you listed is just annoying stuff I don't want to deal with right now (other than Aegi because infiltrator Chandelure).
I will try out both and see which one I prefer. I like the idea of the rocky helmet to get extra damage on anything that wants to touch me while the popularity of lum will make Rotom think twice before finding out my item.
I'm on board with the offensive Garchomp but I don't see the need for Fire Blast. The things it mainly hits are already slower than Chandelure and Goodra for that matter and their flamethrowers hit harder than fire blast from Garchomp not to mention the accuracy that could be so crucial in such...
I am fine with Garchomp I just am questioning the EV spread you gave me. It seems slapped down with no investment in bulk and no significant OHKOs with Fire Blast. Also is Skarmory ever used in VGC?
I started playing Pokemon a year ago and picked up the competitive side just this year. I would like to attend a live tournament but since I only really played OU Singles I would need to play some VGC to fulfill that dream. Here is my first team that I have had mild success with.

I would like to pick up Gengar but without Rotom-W I feel open to Talonflame and Greninja (without Chansey now too). Any suggestions on how to work through this?
Edit: Decided on Aegislash instead
Any suggestions on how to play Bisharp? I always struggle against that thing. Should I wall it with Mandibuzz and hope not to flinch or try to burn it with Rotom-W? Either way I do it I end up with a near-dead Pokemon or it takes me out if I'm already weakened.
I am pretty new to this game considering I played through my first Pokemon game last August and started playing competitively in January. This is the team I have had the most success with but it has its flaws. Please improve it if you can but do not suggest legendary Pokemon as I am not in favor...
