First RMT

This is my first post to RMT so I hope I didn't do anything wrong anyways thank you in advanced for looking at my team :D

So, I have been testing this team out lately and its done pretty well on Showdown and I've found it tends to do well against sand teams not too well against rain. Still I find this team pretty standard just looking for opinions and things i should tweak.

Garchomp @ Leftovers
Trait: Iron Skin
EVs: 252 Atk / 4 Def / 252 Speed
Jolly Nature
- Swords Dance
- Substitute
- Outrage
- Earthquake

Garchomp on this team is the main attacker often used for late game sweeping and is all around suitable for this team as he is very fast and can kill most dragons excluding Salamance (Starmies Ice Beam), Latias and Latios (Crobat counters most of the time).

Crobat @ Black Sludge
Trait: Inner Focus
EVs: 252 Atk / 252 HP / 4 Atk
Jolly Nature
- U-turn
- Brave Bird
- Roost
- Taunt

Running as the typical lead for my team Crobat is very fast and can screw with many of your opponents leads with Taunt and can instantly U-turn out or hit him with that STAB Brave Bird. I find Crobat also great because he is sometimes used as a Psychic type counter and a Fighting type counter.

Jirachi @ Leftovers
Trait: Serene Grace
EVs: 252 HP / 160 Atk / 96 Speed
Jolly Nature
- Iron Head
- Fire Punch
- Body Slam
- Substitute

Jirachi is great on this team as he can take many hits and is also used as a Ferrothorn, Forretress, and Scizor counter with Fire Punch. Also a great switch in for dragons as for most fire attacks will still 2HKO.

Starmie @ Leftovers
Trait: Natural Cure
EVs: 252 SpA / 4 SpD / 252 Speed
Timid Nature
- Ice Beam
- Rapid Spin
- Thunderbolt
- Hydro Pump

Oh Starmie. I'm still deciding whether the SpD set would run better on this team or not but I find Starmie to be great on this team with both. I find this one a bit better because he can be a great revenge killer and has good coverage moves such as Ice Beam and Thunderbolt and I'm also using it as my Spinner.

Gliscor @ Toxic Orb
Trait: Poison Heal
EVs: 252 HP / 184 Def / 72 Speed
Impish Nature
- Earthquake
- Protect
- Substitute
- Toxic

Gliscor seems to do well on this team I haven't established what its purpose is but it seems to run very well. I have gotten much better at now predicting the Ice Beams and HP Ice and switching in Ferrothorn or Jirachi but i'll admit once your only left with Gliscor and Garchomp against a Landorus there are problems but yeah I find Gliscor to be overall a great member of this team.

Ferrothorn @ Leftovers
Trait: Iron Barbs
EVs: 252 HP / 88 Def / 168 SpD
Relaxed Nature
- Leech Seed
- Power Whip
- Stealth Rocks
- Gyro Ball

Ferrothorn is a threat and he is my entry hazard user. I have found that he can take many hits and iron Barbs has been great for withering down those low HP Pokemon. I think his two strong STAB moves also are a force to be reckoned with Ferrothorn seems to usually fair great against every sort of team.
 
Good team overall. I'd probably switch out one of the moves on ferrothorn or jirachi for thunder wave, since it excels in stalling/stopping sweepers.
 
nice team but seeing all of you pok healed by lefty and co is a little strange... I suggest remove rapid spin from starmie, you really no need that, exept for crobat SR no hit you hard. I would try out this starmie set, that would be better:
Starmie @ leftovers
Trait : natural cure
Evs : 252 hp/252 speed/4 def
Nature : timid
Scald
Recover
hidden power (fire)
Thunderbolt/icebeam
This set would work better: scald can burn, so you have a good and fast choice for phisical attackers, hp fire troll scizor, Ferro and company that can sweep your entire team. Tbolt or ice for coverage. I prefer ice beam for hit dragons :-D
Scarfers also are a problem, like scarftios that can spam Draco meteors all day and switch out, why no use this set for garchy?
Garchomp @ focus sash
Trait : rought skin
Evs : 252 speed/252 atk/4 spatk
Nature : naive
Outrage
Stealth rock
Earthquake
Fire blast
This moveset allow you to put SR and kill skar or other steel bulky with fire blast. Outrage main stab, EQ for heatran and is also a stab, this set is awesome believe me :D if scarftios is the first of you opponent you will be able to destroy it and after put SR :D good no?
Why you not fight fire with fire? And use a scarf you too? By looking your team an scarf rachi would work, but I see a lack of special sweepers. I think you better remove gliscor for a good special.. If you no wanna lose the ground, electric immuniti I will suggest a special offensive landorus. Maybe this one?
Landorus @ life orb
trait : sheer force
Nature : modest/timid
Evs :252 spatk/252 speed/4 hp
Rock polish/psychic
Earth power
Hidden power (ice)
Focus blast
Mainly is the rock polish set: if you use RP I suggest modest, otherwise a timid nature. RP boosting move, or psychic for coverage, earth power main stab, hp ice for dragons and focus for more coverage (after SR 252 hp 0 sp def blissey will be an 2HKO OF FOCUS BLAST! OMG! And replace stealth rock on Ferro for gyroball or spikes. Maybe use a 252 hp/252 def/4 spdef on fertothorn. With a nature for max def and -speed ( I no remember the name sorry D: ) and I would replace crobat for someone else.. I no know who can work.. But he can work good. This is all I have to say, good luck and see ya :D
Oh yea one last thing : if you continue to use this jirachi set (it is good) replace sub for ice punch or u-turn. It is better! GL :)
