Introduction:
My computer was recently diagnosed with a strange virus that edited my user preferences and did annoying things to my browser, in order to get rid of the virus, I rebooted my computer in safe mode, got rid of the virus, and reset all of my browser settings. Thankfully the virus is gone but so are all of my personal data. After I logged in again to all of my accounts I decided to go play some Pokemon showdown but since I reset all of my settings my team went down the drain as well, so in a 10 minutes or so I whipped up a team that wasn't too shabby, I'd like to hear your opinions of my team and how I can improve it.
Team Building Process:
I based my team around my favorite and most overused Pokemon of all: Heatran.
Next I wanted something that takes care of the ground types, So I chose Rotom-W as a water and Tangrowth as a Grass
Next I decided that I needed a starter and something that will also work well with heatran. I decided that skarmory was a good choice.
After I took skarmory onto my team I decided I wanted a good scarfer to take care of threats, and hydreagion seemed like a good choice.
Lastly I wanted a ground type to be a tank of sorts and I chose Gloscor for its excellent typing and poison heal,
