My First Team - Major changes made.
Okay, so this is my first team. Ever. (Competitive, of course) So, the descriptions might be a bit short, and the threat list very lacking, or non-existent. I want to thank Stathakis a bunch for helping me with this. This team is 5-1 on Shoddy, the only loss being bad prediction. (Didn't predict a Infernape with Grass Knot. Yes. I'm a Novice.) By the way, this team is competitive, but it will become my ingame team. So moves like Hidden Power, and wish on Blissey (Since that's an event) aren't in it.
That aside, here's the team:
At a Glance:
General Strategy: Gengar is for either taking down starters that can't counter with Choice Scarf, or putting them asleep. Swampert sets up Stealth Rocks, while Blissey is the standard Cleric for the team. Vaporeon with Wish and Protect/Yawn is a good wall, with Weezing as a good counter for things like Heracross. Lucario is the main sweeper.

BulkyLuke. I love this set so much. Can get at least one SD in, maybe two, then sweeps.
