Hmm..you bring up a really good point, though. Honestly, now that I think about it, your team would greatly benefit from team support like chansey's. and when I say your team looks like something, that's exactly what I mean: it just looks like it. I you enjoy playing with chansey, then by all Means, go for it. I was thinking you could invest max HP, max Defense, so that chansey's defense is a little more even.

Maybe this set?

Chansey@leftovers
Calm 252 HP/ 200 Def/ 52 Sp. def
-heal bell
-Softboiled/wish
-seismic toss
-toxic

What about a landorus?

Sorry didn't see your Chansey comment when I asked about Landorus

Oh I was thinking Chansey to use for Stealth Rocks

Oh, I see...the thing with landorus, though, is that everybody uses it, meaning everybody knows what to expect, and also, both garchomp and landorus are 4x weak to ice. But, if you want, you could use it as a bulky defensive tank with rocks.

Ugh, this is very confusing. I don't know which pokemon can fit my team best for SR. I don't min using Infernape, but I'm trying to find any better choices

DO you think Nidoqueen doesn't have good enough stats to be a SR user for this team?

Neverrmind it's weak to ice

Well, what's the team so far? Let's look at its strengths and weaknesses.

Garchomp@choice scarf
Gallade@galladite
Magnezone@assault vest
Sylveon@choice specs
Infernape@focus sash

It seems to me, that if you give infernape a mixed set, it could function well as a mixed attacker, and then if you have chansey as the last pokemon for a mixed wall, it seems like a solid team :D

You know, I have a thought: what if you take away garchomp's choice scarf, and give him stealth rocks, while giving infernape a choice scarf and having this set:

Infernape@choice scarf
252 Spe/ 252 Atk
-u-turn
-close combat
-flare blitz
-Mach punch

Then give garchomp this:

Garchomp@leftovers
100 HP/ 252 Atk/ 152 Spe
-stealth rock
-dragon claw
-earthquake
-crunch

Then add the previous chansey set with eviolite and then you're Done! I can breed infernape and chansey for you. But you will have to ev train your pokemon and get items (I'll help you find them, of course :D)

The Garchomp Stealth Rocks seems interesting, but if it doesn't work out well would I be able to reset the EV's and moves?

Yes. Oh, and I already have a 5 iv chansey, but do you want me to ev train it in defense or special defense!

At was supposed to be a ?

*that

Should I start breeding your infernape now?

Uhm I think a Special Defense Chansey would be best since my only Special Defense built Pokemon is Sylveon

Okay. I'll start breeding your infernape now (when you get the chansey, it'll already be ev trained :D). To get the eviolite, go to route 123 south of mt. Pyre and go to the fishing house. You can probably find a video on it.

Once again, I'll probably finish by tomorrow or so. Really excited to battle you (hopefully tomorrow)!

Oh, awesome it's already EV trained alright. Well I am currently working to get the items to EV train from Battle Maison
