Other Metagames I need some advice on my Balanced Hackmons team. I seem to get walled a lot.

Lazy Bastard (Slaking) @ Toxic Orb
Ability: Poison Heal
EVs: 252 HP / 252 Atk / 252 Def / 252 SpA / 252 SpD / 252 Spe
Adamant Nature
- Shift Gear
- Facade
- Knock Off
- Spore
This guy is kind of meant to be a sweeper. I put the opponent to sleep, and if they try to attack or switch, I Shift Gear. I do it again depending on whether they've switched or not. If they switch, I throw a Facade or Knock Off if they switch to a ghost.

Paper Plane (Kartana) @ Sitrus Berry
Ability: Unburden
EVs: 252 HP / 252 Atk / 252 Def / 252 SpD / 252 Spe
Adamant Nature
- Belly Drum
- Sunsteel Strike
- Close Combat
- Power Whip
This one seems to die before he's useful. If I don't lead with him, he dies before he can do anything.

Dancing Queen (Diancie-Mega) @ Life Orb
Ability: Magic Guard
EVs: 252 HP / 252 Atk / 252 Def / 252 SpA / 252 SpD / 252 Spe
Lonely Nature
- Head Smash
- Light of Ruin
- Flare Blitz
- Shell Smash
This is the Poke I use to get rid of Zygarde or Giratina walls. Light of Ruin does a lot.

Harrowthorn (Ferrothorn) @ Leftovers
Ability: Flash Fire
EVs: 252 HP / 252 Atk / 252 Def / 252 SpA / 252 SpD
Sassy Nature
IVs: 0 Spe
- Shore Up
- Anchor Shot
- Stealth Rock
- Topsy-Turvy
I'm not sure why, but he dies fast. I try to stealth rock at the minimum.

Distracted (Yveltal) @ Safety Goggles
Ability: Unaware
EVs: 252 HP / 252 Atk / 252 Def / 252 SpA / 252 SpD / 252 Spe
Sassy Nature
- Spectral Thief
- Revelation Dance
- Shore Up
- U-turn
This is meant to be my answer to Entrainment Mega-Gengar. Revelation dance is pretty good. If I send him in other times as a wall, I have spectral thief to counter setups.

Yalready Know (Gengar-Mega) @ Spooky Plate
Ability: Normalize
EVs: 252 HP / 252 Def / 252 SpA / 252 SpD / 252 Spe
Timid Nature
IVs: 0 Atk
- Entrainment
- Quiver Dance
- Judgment
- Boomburst
This is my biggest wall. Entrainment, quiver dance, then either Judgement or Boomburst.

Welcome to Smogon! I'm locking your RMT for the time being as the forum rules require that you provide at least 3 lines of descriptions for each Pokemon to explain their roles. Please read the rules carefully and take a look at Team Showcase to see the level of detail we require. PM me with updated descriptions and I'll be happy to unlock this.
