Normal and Ghost-Type Theme!

This is my Theme Shoddy Team that I will put into testing after you give ideas! Read on!

Blissey@ Leftovers
Ability: Natural Cure
Bold Nature
Thunder Wave
Softboiled
Stealth Rock
Seismic Toss


Well, this is much better than Ditto, and that's a plus!


Purugly@ Leftovers
Ability: Thick Fat
Sassy Nature
Fake Out
Body Slam
Slash
Thunder

This just goes to show you that Purugly is durable. It even learns Thunder! That dosen't really matter, though, so I need to change the moveset. I really like it!


Ampibom@ Leftovers
Ability: Technician
Hasty Nature
Fake Out
Last Resort
Substitute
Double-Hit

Ampibom really should help me out, as Last Resort is very powerful and since I will mostly use the other moves, it will be easy to sweep.

Bibarel@ Silk Scarf
Calm Nature
Ability: Simple
Super Fang
Surf
Waterfall
Rollout

Super Fang is the greatest move ever. Thgis busy beaver is the greatest Super Fanger ever! Go Bibarel. Anyway, it really help me and Rollout is also good against Beautifly and Vespiquen.

Gengar@ Spooky Plate
Lonely Nature
Ability: Levitate
Shadow Punch
Shadow Ball
Sucker Punch
Psywave

Psywave is the best move out there, not really. Actually it is Sucker Punch for Psychics and other ghosts. It also works for Shedinja, who is anoying for my team.

Shedinja@ Focus Sash
Ability: Wonder Guard
Shadow Sneak
Grudge
Spite
Bug Buzz

Just here to annoy everone. Not really that good, but still might be helpful. I am thinking about putting in Bug Bite somewhere. It helps with berry-holders and Psychics, so it is welcome, but I don't know where.
 
Ok, first of all let's fix that Gengar

Get rid of spooky plate, and add choice scarf since your team needs speed. Give it a timid nature too.

Take off Shadow Punch, Psywave, and Sucker punch

Give it thunderbolt, focus blast, and then either HP ICE, or Hypnosis.


Now dont use Ditto. If anything you might want to use Swellow. He can also act as a fast and deadly sweeper.

Bibarel is kind of meh, but you can use the tauntaruel set. Just use the search function.

Nasty Plot on Ambipom is a joke. It has no special moves.

Shedinja should not be used thanks to SR, and Sandstorm pretty much in every game.

In fact, your whole team really is a failure. It needs to be changed around a lot to even make it usable in a competitive battle.


Oh and I forgot to mention, it is clear that this team is either a joke, or not thought out at all.

If you actually did try and make a team I suggest joining the apprentice program once the next round starts.


I also suggest you look at serebii's dex. There are so many better options for you to use.

Thanks. This is Shoddy. Anyway, I changed it.
 
Change Ambipom's nature to Jolly. Why would you have Surf AND Waterfall on Bibarel? Get rid of one of them. Please replace Ditto with something more useful. I like the Swellow idea.

Weavile can rip through this team. I don't know a Ghost/Normal poke that can counter it.


Oh and I forgot to mention, it is clear that this team is either a joke, or no thought out at all.
Agreed.
 
It doesnt matter if it is shoddy. Also when do you plan on editing in the changes?

Also I notice a lack of any good special wall on your team. Blissey makes a fine addition.

If you want a nice special sweeper as well then use Togekiss. Go for the flinchhax set.

edit: We ARE giving you advice.

What about Curselax?
 
Curselax is ok, although good luck trying to set up as any good opponent wont let you.

Please make the edits to your OP. I am already inclined to believe that you are a troll.

Just take our suggestions since you clearly do not know how to make good ones yet (otherwise this team would not need major fixing)
Join the next apprentice program, and learn how to build teams there.
 
Hasty nature on Bliss is pretty bad. You should max out its defense EVs and give it Bold so it can survive explosions and other physical hits. For its moveset, do T-wave, Softboiled, Stealth Rock, and Seismic Toss. You need the rock support badly if you want to go anywhere with this team, and the paralysis support is always nice.
 
Ok, why on earth would there be a move in pokemon that when one of YOUR pokemon uses it, it makes your OWN pokemon lose hp when they switch in? That makes no sense

Use a Bold Nature on Blissey, and read the analyses on the home page....

Mimic is also a huge joke.

Also Blissey as a lead is a bad idea.

Please, fix that gengar, and get rid of purugly as well. Take Nasty Plot OFF ambipom


edit: Also what EV's are you using?
 
Oh, please do something about Gengar too. It's moveset is atrocious.
Try...
Gengar @ Sash
Modest/Timid
Levitate
64 HP / 252 SpAtt / 192 Spe
Tbolt
HP Ice
Shadow Ball
Focus Blast

Please.
Also, you could swap Purugly for Tauros if you want a decent attacker.
 
Yes, replace Purugly

Get rid of surf on Bibarel. Use the taunterell set. I will post it here soon.

Bibarel (M) @ Leftovers
Ability: Unaware
EVs: 232 HP/80 Def/116 Spd/80 SDef
Jolly nature (+Spd, -SAtk)
- Taunt
- Waterfall
- Yawn
- Super Fang


 
Okay, but while you're gone, how about I suggest an appropriate Tauros set?
Tauros @ Choice Band
Jolly
Intimidate
6 hp / 252 atk / 252 spe
Return
Earthquake
Stone Edge
Zen Headbutt

Copied from the analysis. It covers a wide variety of types, so please use this to your advantage. It could really help your team.

And also, please replace Gengar as fast as you can.
 
I suggest you view the Smogon analysis and look through them to get a good idea of what is a competitive moveset, EV spread and strategy. You can find them here:

http://www.smogon.com/dp/pokemon/

As you're clearly new to Smogon and competitive Pokemon, I also suggest you take a look at the Tutoring Programme. I'm sure they could teach you a lot. Take a look:

http://www.smogon.com/forums/forumdisplay.php?f=42

I think it's important that you get a grasp of the game you're playing before you start throwing teams around. Even if you had the perfect team, you're still going to lose if you think Purugly is "durable" and a Gengar with Shadow Punch is a smart move.

Lurk a bit, gain some experience and try again.
