For Garchomp and Alakazam I have not done breeding to get the proper IVs and so I have not gotten a nature chosen for them yet. Malamar does not have an item listed, because I have not decided on a hold item that would suit it best. If you have any suggestions for anything in this list please let me know. THANK YOU!!!

Oh sorry, I forgot to read the rules honestly lol. Okay so, here's a description of why I chose the Pokémon that I did.

I chose Snorlax because his base stat in Defense is perfect to have him as a physical wall. Thick Fat allows him to add a couple of more resistances thus allowing him to be a better physical wall. Increasing his Defense EVs also helps gain an edge against his one weakness of Fighting since most of those attacks are physical. The Chesto Berry is to play as a combo for when I use rest. After the Chesto Berry has been used, Snorlax can still be useful after using Rest because of the move Sleep Talk.

Greninja has a pretty decent base stat in both Speed and Sp. Atk. I have him trained to be a physical sweeper. He has the potential to be a great special sweeper due to his maxed out Speed and Sp. Atk. Along with having a wide range of different Sp. Atk moves, Greninja also has U-Turn to get out of dire situations. Wise glasses help boost his Sp. Atk and then STAB helps with Scald and Water Pulse.

Garchomp is my attempt as a physical sweeper. Throwing him out first can either be advantageous or detrimental. Garchomp has a x4 weakness to Ice, but his does have a resistance to Electric. He has an assortment of moves to help him out in pretty much any situation. Then Focus Band helps try and give Garchomp another chance to take out one last Pokémon before fainting.

Blissey is pretty self-explanatory. Blissey has top of the list base HP and has amazing Sp. Def. Blissey is to be my special wall, and with the combination of Rest and Leftovers, Blissey can survive even longer than expected. Blissey is practically my only chance against Dragons. Blissey's Natural Cure can even help my team if other Pokémon get a status problem during the battle.

Alakazam is on my team to help and get rid of the huge weakness to Fighting that poses a problem to half of my team. Having a very strong Sp. Atk, Alakazam is by far one of the strongest Psychic-type Pokémon there is. Having Twisted Spoon only furthers is Psychic powers and having Synchronize gives him the opportunity to get an ability to help him even more.

Malamar is what I call an Annoyer. I don't know the technical term, but depending on my opponent I will either start with Malamar or someone else. Malamar knowing Toxic and Hypnosis is a pretty tough contender. I was thinking about giving Malamar Quick Claw to give him an advantage at the start of a battle.

I understand the Sleep Clause and that's where Toxic comes into play. I may not have anyone with Spikes, Stealth Rocks, or Toxic Spikes, but having Malamar with Toxic and Hypnosis is still pretty tough.

Is that a good enough description to earn a rate lol.
