Fine tuning

I've had this team for a while now, but I feel like it needs some fine tuning

I don't remember what brought this team together,
however I know that Metagross was the main focus,
Gyarados and Flygon were great to cover up weaknessess (in both turns)
then I picked Gengar for being a Sp powerhouse and my one and only sp sweeper (which seems to hurt from time to time if the have multiple phy. walls, and then blissey for being blissey

Metagross @ Leftovers

Adamant ~ 252 HP / 236 Atk / 12 Def / 8 Spe
Stealh Rock
EQ
Bullet Punch
MM

not a real fan of explosion so I run MM over it
standart opener, would have gone with aggiligross but I needed an opener,
so he ended up being the one

my favorite Spider,

Gyrados@ Leftovers

Adamant ~ 156 HP / 108 Atk / 100 Def / 144 Spe
Dragon Dance
Waterfall
Stone Edge
Taunt

DDos but bulkier, I decided going bulky because it survives some hits it normally wouldn't
altho without DD he's more easily outrun, he's still (and always will be) a threat to alot of pokémon
Together with Metagross, they're not weak to alot of things,
making this combo fairly nice

Flygon @ Choice scarf

Adamant ~ 80 HP / 252 Atk / 176 Spe
U-Turn
EQ
Stone Edge
Outrage


a nice revenge killer, and easily switched in for his immunities and resistance,
you'll be suprised how many Salamences stay in when I flip in Flygon (atm: all of em xD)
this is without a doubt my MVP in most battles (him and Gyarados)


Gengar @ Life Orb

timid ~ 252 Sp Atk / 252 Spe / 6 HP
Explosion
Focus Blast
T-bolt
Shadow ball

this time I did run explosion because breeding for HP Fire is too big of a pain,
and sludge bomb just isn't worth it, he's my only special attacker,
so I have to make sure he doesn't get killed to early in the game, which is harder then one might imagen, gengar is very frail, his 3 immunities (and no toxic) makes him easy to throw in

Scizor @ Choice band

Adamant ~ 248 HP / 252 Atk / 8 Spe
U turn
Bullet Punch
SuperPower
Pursuit

pretty standart, made to swap into gengars main weaknesses,
Scizor with his decent defence, he'll be able to pack a punch
Choice band makes BP and pursuit a force to recoin with


Blissey @ Leftovers
dpffb242.png

bold ~ 252 HP / 252 Def / 6 sp DEF
Heal Bell
Softboiled
Sesmic toss
T-Wave

Old school bliss, but still works, my major special wall and cleric,
ussually when thrown in I'll use T-wave to open, since it will be thrown in a spec atk
and they ussually swap out (even of they don't, they get crippled)


the fact that gengar is my only special sweeper bothers me a bit,
I don't remember the full details on how I made it but this team seems to be winning 60-70% of the battles I did in 2 days time (and Blissey was my MVP in one battle xD)
 
Not a bad team, but it looks like once you lose Gengar, you're going to have trouble with Physical walls. I would suggest switching one of your physical attackers, (Gyara?) For a special attacker. (Suicune, for instense)
 
Hey, not a bad team! First, maybe you wanna put explosion on metagross instead of Meteor Mash or Bullet Punch because I think it's very useful for offensive teams. Secondly, since you have an offensive team I would suggest switching Blissey for a tank pokemon or another sweep because otherwise it doesn't do much. I think to remplace blissey lucario or Scarf T-tar would be a decent choice.

you'll be suprise how much blissey actually helped my team from time to time, I dislike running Explosion on Metagross (he is way to kickass to explode)

I might consider running Suicune over Gyarados
