U have a mixape weak, Flamethrower torterra and breloom, CC for regice and infernape since mixape walls your infernape set.
 
Crobat-ok i'll make it timid but wont i need to change the EVs?
Torterra-Im not sure about relaxed either i guess i'll go with careful.
Regice-i hate blissey so no to that. the RestTalk set looks gd thanks.
Empoleon-roar wouldnt be a good idea sorry.
Breloom-I kno
Infernape-Focus sash so it can get atleast 1 NP in. but considering life orb.

changes in Bold
 
Okay, as stated earlier you have a MixApe weak. You also have a pretty big Gyarados weak, but I think Regice might live a DD LO Stone Edge. Not to sure on that one, but I really wouldn't feel to safe when a Gyarados comes in. I would suggest that you maybe run a Vaporeon over your Empoleon, or a Suicune over it. Suicune will be a more offensive threat, while Vaporeon will be a straight defense and be able to wish your other pokemon, and itself back to health. It also is a nice switch into waterfall thanks to waterabsorb.

As for your own Infernape, I really wouldn't recommend a Focus Sash escpecially for a late game sweepere, only cause SR is soo very common nowadays that it makes that item basically useless unless you're a lead. I probably wouldn't run 2 Sub Seeders either, so I would probably drop Torterra or Breloom for a different pokemon. If you want to drop Torterra a Celebi could fit in pretty niceley. Thunderwave could para faster pokemon, and make it easier for you to take down opponents pokemon. If you want to drop Breloom, I would probably drop it for a Sub Gengar, or a CM Mismagius, both of which give you a nice fighting resists, and are 2 very dangerous offensive threats.

Well, I'll check back in later to see if I see anything new or to see if you have any questions or comments.
 
ok the whole idea of the title is that torterra, empoleon and infernape must be in the team. but i am willing to change other pokes. CM mismaguis would be a nice addition but then i dont have a physical sweeper any more ideas?
 
You could change Empoleon to that Agility Petaya set, it's a great late game sweeper. And then maybe a Staraptor/Salamence/Gyarados or something that does basically the same role could fit in there as well. I think Salamence would be the preferred choice, but it's really based on preference. The combination of Salamence + Empoleon would make pretty 2 great late game sweepers.

Post if you have anymore comments or concerns.
 
ok so salamence instead of breloom? that is good. i might go with the mixedMence so it doesnt get walled easily what u think?
agility and petaya set maybe difficult to get but it could e an option thanks.
 
That could work since he's a great wall breaker, and should clear up a lot of space for your other sweepers to get in and do their thing. You may have Tar issues but I believe Torterra should be enough to handle him. And I would just test out the Agility Peteya set, to see if you like it or not. You could always just change it back to your old set if you're not too fond of it.
 
I'll dig them up for you.

Salamence @ Life orb
120 Atk / 252 SpA / 136 Spe
Rash
~ Brick Break
~ Draco Meteor
~ Fire Blast / Flamethrower
~ Roost / Crunch

I would even think about using Earthquake over Brick Break for that sure KO on Heatran. Tyranitars are bulky enough nowadays to live the brick break, so EQ really does seem like the better option to me at least.

Empoleon @ Petaya
28 HP / 12 Def / 252 SpA / 216 Spe
Modest
~ Agility
~ Surf / Hydro Pump
~ Ice Beam / Grass Knot
~ Substitute

Probably Grass Knot over ice beam on this team since the dragons will most likely be taken out by late game. It's really up to you though.
 
ok looks good thanls a lot will get to changing them right away. my main problem i cans ee is the MixApe weakness i could add in a suicunee if you wanted with this set:

Suicune @ leftovers
Bold
Pressure
252 HP/ 252 Sp.Def/ 6 Sp.atk
Calm Mind
Surf
Mirror Coat/?
Rest

this could help mt to increase my changes of surviving against a mixape. sound good?
 
hi im the other one who uses this acount(me and my freind share it) so to my freind i say replace regice with a cresselia. it has great hp and defenses, plus has levitate, to resist the ever popular earthquake.
