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.
The Team
The Teambuilding Process
Basicly I wanted to use Latios and Togekiss. The first thing I noticed was how both of them usually run Tailwind so I kinda wanted mons in weird speedtiers that can make use of Tailwind and maybe also like having the Follow Me support from Togekiss...
And once again I'm too bad at teambuilding to do it allone or to make a team without Scizor. Nothing new, mostly pretty generic stuff that synergizes more or less well type wise.
Some music to make this generic team more pleasent to look at:
Team Overview
In Depth...
Ty for the suggestions, tried them out and I agree with most of them. I don't think running Adamant on Terakion would be a good idea though since some stuff would outspeed me with scarfs or after a Dragon Dance and the fact that it can with Jolly saved me a bunch of times already.
The Team:
Pretty simple team. Celebi, Rotom and Heatran are something like a defensive core, Scizor, Celebi and Rotom keep up momentum with Volt-turnerino, Latios punches holes into teams and eventually Scizor or Terrakion clean up. Since I have a bunch of fire resistances and Heatran...
Thank you for the replies so far. I guess I'm gonna test physical defensive Rotom and Landorus over Heatran. However that doesn't really change much about bulky waters wrecking me. Although they are uncommon I feel like I should have an answer against them when I want Scizor to do stuff.

Team Overview:
I built this team arround Mega Scizor, I have Rotom-W which synergizes with it thanks to volt-turn-stuff and their ressistances, I have Heatran that can take advantage of Scizors weakness to fire thanks to flash fire or prevent people from going for obvious fire moves in...
1. Ice Beam from Cresselia is a 3HKO on Hydreigon and a 2HKO on Garchomp even if it doesn't have Yache Berry.
2. The point is that Latios can get up a free Substitute when there is a Hitmontop on the opposing side while Cresselia can just go for the obvious Psychic/Psyshock which is not even a...
Well you have a point there. I guess I was a little bit lazy when I wrote this. ._.
I know that Cresselia is very good. I know that it can 2HKO Hitmontops and it takes only around 30% from Sucker Punch. I know that it could support Excadrill with Helping Hand.
However I don't want to use...
Sounds reasonable. However I really don't want to use Cresselia. This team is meant to be a fun team for short matches. Cresselia always makes battles long and boring.
I will replace HP Ice with Thunder Wave like you suggested.
I know that this team is very vulnerable to getting faked out and set up since this happended a few times. ._.
I think I will replace Togekiss like you suggested but I don't think I should use Scrafty since I already have two fighting weaknesses.

Hello everyone,
Back in the day when i discovered the Random Matchup in Pokemon B/W1 I built a team which was very similar to the team I want to show here. A few weeks ago I found this team in one of my boxes and I wanted to know if I could still win with this team like I did at the Random...
If you don't want your Latios getting KO'd by Sucker Punch you can use Substitute.
Also if you want something against steel types you shouldn't just put HP [Fire] on something. I would recommend Infernape. It is a great in combination with Latios, it can deal with steel types and you would get...
