Mix generation team (undecided, need help)

Fading

Edit - After thinking it over for a day I finally decided on a team finally. I feel bad for making this post yesterday now lol. I was confused and my team wasn't really working together. I had used Smogon's brain power in breeding and team building in the past, but was stuck enough that I decided to make an account to ask for help. However after thinking things over last night while looking my boxes over everything finally clicked. I still have to do the Battle Train stuff to get items tho, since you obviously can't transfer items over, so can't post that yet. Again, since I deleted my old post, this is just for the Pokemon White server battles, and finishing in game stuff like the Elite 4, Cynthia, Battle Train, and so on.




Metagross
Jolly
252 Atk, 252 Speed, 4 Def

Meteor Mash
Zen Headbutt
Rock Polish
Stealth Rock


I decided to just go ahead and take Ferrothorn out. It was a tough decision, but after looking it over for awhile, Metagross was a little close in bulk and resistances, the difference being he could also take things out faster, and possibly sweep. So I'll send him out early to Stealth Rock.



Tyranitar
Adamant
252 Atk, 252 Speed, 4 HP

Earthquake
Crunch
Stone Edge
Dragon Dance

With Stealth Rocks out I was thinking I could bring in Tyranitar to whip up a sandstorm. Which would benefit himself and Garchomp, while leaving Metagross unaffected. Plus, Tyranitar can hold his own anyway and deal serious damage.



Garchomp
Jolly
252 Atk, 252 Spd, 4 Def

Outrage
Earthquake
Fire Fang
Sword Dance/Dragon Tail

Thinking Garchomp could come in when safe and take advantage of Tyranitar's sandstorm. Then either set up a sword's dance, or if I use Dragon Tail knock an opponent out with the 60 stab damage, and drag something else out.



Gyarados
Adamant
252 Atk, 252 Speed, 4 Def

Aqua Tail
Ice Fang
Earthquake
Dragon Dance

I decided to change it up from my post from yesterday, and changed Vaporeon out for the shiny Adamant Gyarados I picked up in Heart Gold. I was having such a hard time picking inbetween Milotic and Vaporeon I just thought screw it, and pulled out another monster in Gyarados. I was thinking that even tho he lacks Vaporeon's wish support, and Milotic's survival, he could better carry out the powerhouse theme the previous three had going on. He'll of course cover the usual things water and ice cover.



Volcarona
Timid
252 S Atk, 252 Speed, 4 HP

Heat Wave
Bug buzz
Quiver Dance
Hidden Power (fighting)

Same as yesterday's post, I just knew I wanted Volcarona in my team from the second I saw him lol. His speed and S Atk are off the charts, and fire and bug seem to have good coverage. My only change from yesterday is that I changed out Morning Sun for HP. I was thinking that with sandstorm out, Morning Sun would be diminished anyway. Might as well let HP hold the spot until I level Volcarona up enough to get that nice flying move.



Hydreigon
Modest
252 S Atk, 252 Spd, 4 HP

Draco Meteor
Dark Pulse
U Turn
???

I had put up my Zweilous earlier. However when I picked out the other 5 earlier I realized I needed another Special attacker, and that I was lacking electric attacks. I looked thru all my boxes, thought it over, and just couldn't come up with anything. So I finally just decided to bring in the Zweilous I never finished evolving. He of course covers the Special Attack I was looking for, and has more speed than the Special Attacker I replaced him with in Reuniclus. I liked Reuniclus, but with Ferrothorn and Vaporeon gone, and all of my Pokemon having good speed, someone with Trick Room on my team just no longer made sense.






So anyway that's about what I was going for, with Hydreigon being the only thing I'm not 100% sure on atm. More or less I was wanting to go for a team where each member can handle themselves, and I had atleast one member with a resistance, or immunity to every type for emergency switch ins.
 
You need detailed descriptions for each team member. Add a short paragraph under each Pokemon eplaining its role, moveset, stategy and such. If you fail to do so I'll have to lock your thread under rule 3.
 
For Hydreigon use Fire Blast in the last slot, it deifnetly helps against Ferrothron and buddies. Also for Volcorna I highly suggest that you use Hidden Power Rock to beat other Volcorna's as well as beating Gyarados and Salamence
 
I'm a little confused concerning your metagross. Do you want it to be a lead-metagross or a sweep-metagross? This choice is critical in the item and attacks you want your metagross to carry. In case of a lead, you want the occaberry so you can survive a fire blast and set op stealth rock. With the rock polish metagross, you can either go for life orb (for extra power) or lum berry (preventing your opponent from putting him to sleep or paralysing him).
As for the attacks, simply change stealth rock/rock polish by a more appropriate move depending on the type of metagross you want. Just check the Smogon Strategy Dex for suggestions.

In both cases, I also suggest you add a little bulk by switching some speed EV's into HP EV's (since in case of rock polish metagross, you already plan on boosting your speed).

Both metagrosses can be very efficient when used properly and with the right team combinations, so both sets will be useful ;)
