Powaaaa!!!!

Hey, everyone. I made a team and I really need your opinion.

The Beginning
I was playing PO and I thought that I needed a good team. So, I tried to make a few teams and after losing too much I thought that I should look for a guide. I found one and I made this team based on that guide.

First, I needed a lead. I used Kabutops but changed it for the Gengar.

Then, I looked for a Pokemon to help my lead. And I chose Forretress.

Now, it's time for the 1st member of the "core" and I chose the grass-type Roserade.

I present you the 2nd member of the "core" and 4th member of the team, the annoying Swampert!

As 5th member of the team and "core's" 3rd member I have Darmanitan, the fire-type Pokemon.

My last member of the team is Salamence.

Movsets

Gengar (F) @ Focus Sash
Trait: Levitate
EVs: 4 HP / 252 SAtk / 252 Spd
Timid Nature (+Spd, -Atk)
- Icy Wind
- Shadow Ball
- Thunderbolt
- Taunt

This is my lead. With Focus Sash, I have one free turn to use Icy Wind/Taunt. It has a great coverage with Icy Wind and Thunderbolt. This Gengar is really helping me out.

Forretress (M) @ Shed Shell
Trait: Sturdy
EVs: 252 HP / 176 Def / 80 SDef
Relaxed Nature (+Def, -Spd)
- Toxic Spikes
- Spikes
- Rapid Spin
- Gyro Ball

Forretress is my Lead-supporter. It's really helpful with Spikes and Rapid Spin. Then, I can use Gyro ball on faster Pokemon. Rapid Spin takes other hazards out.

EmbC (Darmanitan) (M) @ Choice Scarf
Trait: Sheer Force
EVs: 4 HP / 252 Atk / 252 Spd
Jolly Nature (+Spd, -SAtk)
- Rock Slide
- Superpower
- Flare Blitz
- U-turn

Darmanitan is the principal Pokemon. Choice Scarf covers his medium speed. I guess Earthquake is better, but I'm using Superpower. Please, help me ;) I can use EmbC to defeat fast Pokemon. It's very useful.

Rose (Roserade) (F) @ Black Sludge
Trait: Natural Cure
EVs: 252 HP / 120 Def / 136 SDef
Calm Nature (+SDef, -Atk)
- Sleep Powder
- Hidden Power [Ice]
- Rest
- Giga Drain

Roserade is my special wall. Put the opponent sleeping, Rests after the big damage and I change to another Pokemon to wake up Roserade and end with the opponent.

Swampert (M) @ Leftovers
Trait: Torrent
EVs: 252 HP / 252 Def / 4 SAtk
Relaxed Nature (+Def, -Spd)
- Stealth Rock
- Earthquake
- Ice Beam
- Roar

This Swampert is reeeeeally helpful. Set up Stealth Rocks and Roar. I take off Heatrans with Earthquake and Dragons/Flyings with Ice Beam

Salamence (F) @ Life Orb
Trait: Moxie
EVs: 252 Atk / 4 SAtk / 252 Spd
Naive Nature (+Spd, -SDef)
- Dragon Dance
- Dragon Claw
- Earthquake
- Fire Blast

This Salamence is just a beast after a DD. I use Dragon Claw 'cuz I have Moxie and the PO doesn't let me use Outrage. Seeping is pretty much it function.

This needs descriptions to help us rate. You should add them in before a mod locks this.

Hello and welcome to Smogon.

Add some descriptions to your team please, it's currently in violation with the rules (more info can be found here: http://www.smogon.com/forums/announcement.php?f=119&a=176).

About the team, if you want you can try Rain Dance on Kabutops, not only does it give the same Speed boost but also increases the damage output of Waterfall. Plus you can screw over opposing weather teams.
And on Roserade, try Spikes over Shadow Ball so you can give Forretress Stealth Rock instead, allowing you to abuse all the hazards. Shadow Ball isn't that useful on Roserade anyway.

More to come once this is fixed.
