Jolteonback.png

Jolteon-Leftovers/Pentaya Berry
40 HP/252 SpAtk/212 Speed
Timid/Volt Absorb

Moves-
Thunderbolt
HP Ice
Substitute
Baton Pass

Bursting at speeds unseen Jolteon Sub Passes to counter such threats that oppose him. Tyranitar,Swampert,Blissy, and Bronzong to name a few. Jolteon can clean up a match as well, once my opponents pokemon weaken around 30/20 HP they get into Jolteon range. BoltBeam combination hits lots of threats, and Volt Absorb is really cool as always.

TyranitarBack.png

Tyranitar-Leftovers
252 HP/68 Speed/188 SpAtk
Quiet/Sandstream

Moves-
Substitute
Focus Punch
Dark Pulse/Crunch
Ice Beam

A good canidate to Sub Pass to on Snorlax,Cresselia, and Blissy switch ins. T-Boah can set up a sub in their face and hit them hard with its mixed set. Ice Beam kills off Salamence,Garchomp, and Gliscor.

Salamenceback.png

Salamence-Choice Specs
252 SpAtk/252 Speed/6 HP
Modest/Intimidate

Moves-
Draco Meteor
Dragon Pulse
Flamethrower
Hydro Pump

Besides Blissy and the uncommon Empoleon nothing likes getting hit by this thing. If Boah kills of Blissy, then Mence gets to smash my opponents team into bits.

Gyaradosback.png

Gyarados-Leftovers
212 HP/16 Atk/180 Def/100 Speed
Adamant/Intimidate

Moves-
Dragon Dance
Taunt
Waterfall
Stone Edge

My closest thing to a Bronzong counter really. Gyarados is an exceent canidate for a Sub Pass, since he can take some hits, dish some back, and spam Intimidate. Electric attacks arn't much of a problem with Jolteon around.

JirachiBack.png

Jirachi-Leftovers
240 HP/56 Atk/76 Def/136 Speed
Impish/Serene Grace

Moves-
Wish
U Turn
Thunder
Zen Headbutt

Tis Jirachi the Wish maker.

Donphan-Leftovers
252 Def/252 HP/6 Atk
Impish/Sturdy

Moves-
Earthquake
Ice Shard
Rapid Spinner
Stone Edge/Stealth Rock

I needed a Tyranitar counter and a Spinner for this spot, so Donphan came to mind. The last spot is arguable, but I dont really ever have time to set up SR with Donphan.
 
Pretty good team, nice defence as well as offence. But I would put something in here.

You have a Heracross weakness, although it's clear that you have a 2 Flying types. CB Heracross can have fun here, since most of them carry Stone Edge, I'm not really sure if even Donphan can handle it. I would put Gliscor here, it stops some of the Strongest Physical sweepers in the game, as well as heracross. Another Gyarados can be a problem, but not much, since you have 2 pokemon with Thunder attack, so don't worry much about it as Heracross.

I can also see how your team can have some trouble with LO Mamoswine. Gliscor doesen't do a good job with him, but a Steel type does, such as Bronzong, and can set you're SR if you want, since it's a Bulky as hell pokemon.

Overall good looking team.
 
He also has Stone Edge gyarados... so that kinda beats other gyaras with EQ/waterfall or EQ/Ice Fang. I think he'll be OK. If the enemy also has Stone Edge gyarados, Jirachi can beat it.

Gyarados is your closest thing to a Mamoswine counter, but keep him VERY healthy and Wish Pass to him often. Watch out for the rare Stone Edge.

I think he's OK with Heracross, as long as he predicts correctly With a Wish passer like Jirachi, he can afford to make the occasional mistake.

I don't get the Heracross thing. The point is to wall it, so it doesn't wreck havoc, not to play around with it predicting if it will CC or do something else, cuz I don't see how he can make an occasional mistake by letting he's Tyranitar get CC =\.
 
Heracross isn't much of a problem as LO Mamoswine, just as Skiddle stated before. Both my switches can soke up CC with Intimidate.

The Gyardos threat is minimum, seeing as how Bulkydos can Stone Edge it, and Donphan doesnt care about being waterfalled and can Stone Edge it too, Jolteon can outrun it after a DD.

Here are some problems I noticed...

Swampert walls my entire team except Mence, and Gyara (he doesnt like taking consecutive Ice Beams and Stone Edges)

Suicune and Raikou can be a pain since I dont have a Blissy or a Physical attacker that can safely stay in without taking dents from CM'd Stabs.

No one uses CB Mamo anymore.

No one uses Nasty Plot infernape anymore (HP Ice)

My only form of defence to Gengar is Jirachi, LO Azelf isn't easy to take down either. (Jolteon can outrun most of these and OHKO if they're at 70-60 HP)

All in all, I think I did pretty well on this team, if you guys can think of anything to improve it just let me know, suggestions are always welcomed.
 
I have a very similar team to this one. One thing I've noticed is a high Electivire weakness. How exactly would it be countered?

Edit: Also weak to hippo.
 
He's not Hippo-weak. Gyarados can counter them just fine. Ice Fang is neutral and doesn't even get any kind of boost such as STAB or from items and Hippo's only good STAB move, Earthquake, is completely resisted by Gyarados due to its Flying traits.

Some pokemons you should be wary about are CalmRachi, the common MixApes (especially if they have Stealth Rocks up which just laughs at Gyarados) which always carries Hidden Power: Ice now. You would probably want to use Crunch on Tyranitar for Jirachi and for a more reliable physical attack on Tyranitar.


As for MixApe, even though you are 'weak' to it, you can still probably manage it. I'm just mentioning that for heads up. ;) Don't waste your Gyarados in battle too early since this beast can son come in and wreck up your team.

How exactly is he going to get pass Donphan? Mixvire might be trouble though if he gets a Motor Drive boost though.

@Junior, what counters Mixape w/HP Ice besides Cresselia and Dusknoir? Nothing really. All I can do is switch in Gyara, or atleast get him to around 80-70 HP and kill him off with Jolteon's Thunderbolt. Thanks for the heads up.
