So yeah this is my team......
I based it largely on my favourite pokemon from R.S.E (Wiscash, Ludicolo and Jirachi). I chucked Politoad in there just for rain because Ludi is useless without it. I'm not really sure what to do with him but this set works ok-ish and it can ohko most non resistant pokemon and 2hko pokemon with high Sp.defences. Jirachi is kind of like a filler but is a good pivot for my team allowing me to switch into him almost always. I can't use fire punch because it doesn't work in rain so ....yeah iI don't know what I could do to make him more useful. Dragonite is because hurricane is awesome 2-3hko ferrothorn. Also thunder is u know good in rain draco meteor is for just smashing things with resistance to thunder surf and hurricane. Toxicroak for kinda stopping Ferrothorn even though it fails at doing that most of the time. This is usually because the opponent will switch into something like gliscor then I can't kill it so I switch to something to kill gliscor then he switchs back to ferrothorn and then i switch back to toxicroak and then it turns into a 80 round match. Ludicolo is awesome . He can switch into heaps of different moves and pokemon and setup. He's a good switch in for choice scarf garchomp and can easily setup and stall for awhile. He even has stalling potential not in the rain and sometimes can continue in sandstorm. However super effective hits will take him out easily. Whiscash is just...awesome he can switch in early game and setup but if he doesn't he doesn't get any other oppurtunities to setup again. Usually he setsup and is awesome or he never setsup at all. So that's my team advice is appreciated also tips to fill in holes in my set.
Thank you!

3. Have some actual words in your post beyond your six Pokemon and their moves. Not following this makes your post quite boring to read and rate. All Pokemon should have a good reason for being in your team anyway, so why not post that reason? If you are having trouble with this one, start by giving an explanation for each team member. Why are they there? What role do they serve? How do you get them in? Then, give an explanation of how you would open with the team and how you would go about using it. All of these things help people rate your team and allow us to offer more helpful advice.

This does not mean add one sentence saying "Standard x" or "all-around awesome" after each Pokemon. If you put thought into making the team, you can put thought into posting it.

Take a look at the RMT archive to see what kind of descriptions we are looking for. Try to add at least 4-5 sentences under each Pokemon. PM me the fixed descriptions and I'll unlock this thread.
