help needed for my Sun-team

blablage

hi everyone, this my first RMT
I've been thinking about it for months and my head its about to explode xD
i really like heelp!

Ninetales (i dunno even if the gender really its important or not xD)
Item: Air ballon
Ability: Drought
EVs: 252 SpA / 252 Spe / 4 Sdef
Timid Nature (+Spd, -Atk)
- Flamethrower
- Enegy ball
- Nasty Plot
- Hypnosis

the lead by excellence in a sun team. i hate fire blast by its accuracy so picked up flamethower. I've learned by experience that politoad or tyranitar are faster to put their weather than ninetales, so i preferred energy balll over solarbeam. i added nasty plot to pacht his low Sp. atk. and hypnosis is for setting up the nasty plots. i´ve been looking for a another sunny day user in case that someone changes the weather and ninetates has benn KOed too, but i dont know what to add...


Darmanitan
Item: Choice scarf
Ability: Sheer force
EVs: 252 atk / 252 Spe / 4 Sdef or def
Adamant Nature (+Atk, -SpAtk)
- Flare Blitz
- Earhtquake
- Rock slide
- U-turn

this guy its soo awesome xD. with the sun shining and sheer force, Flare blitz can KO everything its not bulky or have resistance x4. earhtqueake its to KO annoying things like heatran or tyranitar. the other two moves the best two filler moves i found on him.

Charizard
Item: expert belt
Ability: solar power
EVs: 252 SpA / 252 Spe / 4 Sdef
Timid Nature (+Spd, -Atk)
- Heat wave
- focus blast
- dragon pulse
- Solarbeam

its good for him to get solar power get hight special attack and focus the item in another way. i preffered explert belt to get more coverage on the moves than using a choice item. heat wave its the STAB, i really hate that 70% acurracy focus blast, but i didnt found a better move, and besides , it can deal with heatran or tyranitar, dragon pulse it KO dragonite or other bulky type-dragon., and solarbeam its the filler-move in case that politoad dont screw me.

lilligant
Item: Life Orb
Ability: Chlorophyll
EVs: 4 HP / 252 SAtk / 252 Spd
Modest Nature (+SAtk, -Atk)
- Growth
- Giga drain (?)
- Hidden Power [Fire]
- Sleep powder

she is really cool because its really fast in the sun, and i chossed her over venusaur, changing more SpAtk and speed for a little more frailness. sleep powder gives her chance to set up growths. i have got a question with giga drain. i read its illegal for venusear to have giga drain and chlorophyll, but i duuno if its illegal for lilligant too, beside for being in a lower tier. HP fire make a surprise over scizors and ferrothorn, and thats cool xD.

Exeggutor
Item: heat rock
Ability: Chlorophyll
EVs: 4 SpDEf / 252 SAtk / 252 Spd
Modest Nature (+SAtk, -Atk)
- Sunny day
- solar beam
- psyshock
- sleep powder (?)

the current weather counter i have got in my mind. sunny day helps my team, makes him faster and give him the liberty to have solarbeam without fear. psyshock its to counter special tanks like blissey. sleep powder its good, but i have already a sleep inducer, but i dunno what else i can do.


Tropius (M)
Item: sitrus berry
Ability: harvest
EVs: SAtk 4/ 252 HP / 252 Sdef
calm Nature (+Sdef, -Atk)
- grass knot
- Substitute
- leech seed
- protect

the filler on my team, and the funny special tank Subseeder xD. harvest give him the chance to stall many time with the sitrus berry. i really dint find a better move than grass knot on him, but i would love if he would have better movepool..., substitute its to stall the opponent while you are healed by sitrus berry, and protect its to have a turn to heal yourself with leech seed.

Of anyone have an idea i would really thank it XD
 
EDIT: Oh, I forgot to mention. Welcome to Smogon!
Gender should usually be Male on fast sweepers, female on walls/stalls. 3 male 3 female is best. Add genders to ppkemon that counter common cute charmers(usually always female) and the such.
-For one thing, use proper grammar and spacing in your RMTs. It makes you look like you aren't trying, which I think you are.
-You seem to have a lot of special attackers. I would suggest this Sawsbuck(my fav):
(Sawsbuck-Winter) (F) @ Life Orb
Trait: Chlorophyll
EVs: 172 HP / 252 Atk / 84 Spd
Adamant Nature (+Atk, -SAtk)
- Horn Leech
- Swords Dance
- Nature Power
- Double Edge
Good coverage and very powerful. A good secondary physical sweeper that can do more then darmanitan.

-Your team has little type synergy. Three fires and 3 grass is NOT a good idea. Countless pokemon can beat it. May I suggest a CM Latias to help? The latias will give a little more defenses to your overly-attacking team. Most of these pokemon have alternatives that should be researched. Mostly you need supporters and walls.
 
Hi and welcome to Smogon.

First of all, its important to realize that 5 sweepers doesn't work, you need pokes to support your abusers.

Ninetails' offense is pathetic. You won't be touching Politoed/ Tyranitar at any time. I suggest using a more defensive set, since the only reason to use Ninetails honestly is for its weather. In other words you need it alive during weather wars. This particular set outspeeds Excadrill in the sun for the Revenge Kill and can actually do something to Ttar and Toed in the form of status.

Ninetails @ Leftovers
Drought
Timid
252 Hp/ 96 SpD/ 160 Spe
Flamethrower
Will-o-Wisp/ Toxic
Substitute
Roar/ Energy Ball

Venusaur cannot use Giga Drain+Chlorophyll because of breeding issues. Lilligant does not have these same breeding issues. I'd also suggest trying Quiver Dance in place of Growth and testing which fits better for your playstyle. Quiver Dance means you not only outspeed like everything in existence, but also raise Special Defense as well, alleviating its frailness.

Lilligant @ Life Orb
Chlorophyll
Modest
252 SpA/ 252 Spe/ 4 Def
Quiver Dance
Sleep Powder
Giga Drain
HP Fire

This team absolutely abhorrs dragons and opposing sun teams. Exeggutor is not a good way to deal with opposing weather teams at all. Ttar is just gonna Crunch it. Specially Defensive Heatran gives you entry hazards, a way to take dragon moves, a fire absorber, and is one of the best checks to opposing sun teams.

Heatran @ Leftovers
Flash Fire
Calm
252 Hp/ 252 SpD/ 4 Def
Lava Plume
Toxic
Stealth Rock
Protect

Finally, this team absolutely abhorrs Stealth Rocks, with Ninetails, Darmanitan and Charizard all absolutely getting decimated. It would be in your best interest to run a rapid spinner. I suggest Forretress for the job, who can also take Outrages as well.

Forretress @ Leftovers
Sturdy
Bold
252 Hp/ 176 Def/ 80 SpD
Spikes
Toxic Spikes
Rapid Spin
Volt Switch
 
New World Order's suggestions are all good, but I would like to give my own suggestions. -Heatran would be a wise choice over charizard because of a 4x stealth rock weakness. I would recommend using a support set with a Air Balloon attached.

-Forretress is a good rapid spinner, but there are many others, such as starmie. While starmie might not sound like a smart choice on a sun team, ice beam and psychic give rather decent coverage on their own, while giving you rapid spin support and maintaining the mostly-offensive nature of your team.

-While you are going offensive, you still need more support than currently had. Get rid of exeggutor ASAP, that's for sure. I would add a physical wall, such as gliscor.
 
hi everyone and thanks for your welcome xD
sorry my last bad grammar it was about midnight (just like now XD) when i was writting it and i was sleepy xd.

i will try that New World Order's ninetales and lilligant moveset. i will look for sawbuck if he can do the job too. thanks for the ideas :D

i was searching for other pokes that could support my team, thats why i added Exeggutor, but New World Order its right, Ttar always crunches me before i set up a sunny day... i dunno other sunny day supporters i can add to my team.

i really liked the idea of a gliscor and a rapid spiner XD i will try them for a while :) . the other special wall i have got in mind was Tropius and New World Order's Heatran, but with gliscor and and one of those will be enough isnt it?
 
where to start... well from the beginning of curse! ok you have half of your team weak to fire and the other half weak to water which isnt that great on weather wars against a competitive rain team, 4 mons are weak to rocks and you have no rapid spinner, your team is also weak to ice attacks. i say you have to either raplace something for a rapid spinner or either take some fire types out of the team. Next is your lack of walls and basically a defensive backbone to support the team itself against strong attacks like latios dracometeor or opposing darmanitan flare blitz. im not sure if using hipnosis on tales is a good idea do to the low acc hipnosis have, you could end up in a bad situation if hipnosis miss (trust me it does miss when you most need it). Also on lilligant you are losing coverage using HP fire when you could use the generic but useful HP rock, you also got no hazards to eliminate annoying sashes or sturdy abusers. you could raplace zard with heatran as some others suggest and get an antiweather pkmn to deal with opposing t-tars or toads.
