Yeah, I've basically started breeding/training, and before I'm all done I wanted to see if I should drop anything or keep going.
Bronzong
Lum Berry
Sassy Nature
Levitate Ability
252 HP/128 Atk/128 Spdef
-Stealth Rock
-Hypnosis
-Gyro Ball
-Explosion
It's a standard starter, ev spread from the site's analysis. I was debating Leftovers over Lum Berry but I want to be able to sleep opposing Gengar/Bronzong starters. Wish support also pushed me towards Lum since I can use it to heal up Bronzor
Vaporeon
Leftovers
Bold Nature
Water Absorb Ability
252 Def/160 HP/98 Spatk
-Wish
-Protect
-Ice Beam
-Surf
I love this guy :D comes in on Infernapes and dragons and proceeds to own them. If it wasn't wifi, though, I'd probably be running Hidden Power Electric over Ice Beam since Vappy is such a great Gyarados counter. Actually, I haven't bred for him yet, and I'd hate to plug but if anyone has an HP elec one lemme know!
On another note, is Protect worth it? maybe toxic would be better for opposing bulky waters, even if I use HP elec it wouldn't do much to another vaporeon or slowbro.
Machamp
Leftovers
Adamant Nature
No Guard Ability
252 HP/252 Atk/6 Spe
-Dynamic Punch
-Stone Edge
-Rest
-Sleep Talk
Sleep Absorber and overall powerhouse. Bulky enough to come in on moderate hits and threaten any nonghost with a rarely resisted fighting/rock combo. With Vaporeon currently not running HP elec, I thought Gyara coverage was essential, if I do make the switch on Vappy then I may switch Stone Edge to Ice Punch to deal with the likes of Gliscor.
Garchomp
Yache Berry
Jolly Nature
Sand Veil Ability
252 Atk/252 Spd/6 HP
-Dragon Claw
-Earthquake
-Swords Dance
-Fire Fang
I really hope this push to ubers doesn't work out, I've been using Garchomp for a year since I first got Diamond. I mean, he's a freaking shark! There's not much to say that hasn't been said in a complaining forum post, he hits hard, fast, and almost always has the means of using SD once to start the sweep. I'm a bit partial to the CB version, myself, but its hard to argue with this efficiency.
Gliscor
Leftovers
Impish Nature
Sand Veil Ability
252 HP/252 Def/6 Atk
-Ice Fang
-Earthquake
-Roost
-Knock Off
Physical Wall, and after Vaporeon it's another ice user for dragon types, not to mention Vappy cant exactly come in on Brelooms or Tangrowths. I thought about Taunt for a little bit to stop physical sweepers from setting up on him, but Knock Off is such a great support move I had to go with this.
Heatran
Choice Scarf
Modest Nature
Flash Fire Ability
20 HP/252 Spatk/236 Spd
-Overheat
-Explosion
-Earth Power
-Hidden Power Ice
Oh boy...this is gonna take so long to SR. But that's ok, because Heatran is great for this team. It can come in on fire attacks aimed at Bronzong, grass moves aimed at Vaporeon, ice attacks at Garchomp or Gliscor, it's resistances are fantastic, and even scarf'ed its defenses allow it to come in on a lot. Heatran is my midgame fighter that comes in, does a lot of damage, and leaves things open for Garchomp to sweep in the end game. I don't like Fire Blast's accuracy, so I opted for Overheat to still have a large amount of power. It's not like he'd be staying in long, anyways.
