Ok, an ending up not using Blissey, becuase I want less "way OU" pokes. Is Slowking a good replacement?


*changes in bold italics.
 
Porygon2 could be a better lead for those Gyarados. Blissey needs Seismic Toss/Ice Beam or Seismic Toss/Counter, Ice Beam/Counter doesn't work well.
 
agreed with venom, porygon2 is a good lead. Especially with magic coat to bounce back all those spores adn leech seeds.
 
OK. so you are advising putting Magic coat on porygon 2? Which move would I drop?

and the reason i didnt put the seismic toss on blissey, is because i dont have emerald move tutor it. I was considering also to put healing wish on blissey? Is that a bad idea?
 
Props for Porygon2 usage ^_^

However, seeing as most of your team has special attackers, try the less used Choice Band Mence. It's Dragon Claws rip through anything, and it has a really nice physical movepool. Go Naughty and you can use Flamethrower, or go Adamant and use Stone Edge. EQ and Brick Break are standard.

BTW, you could try a wishing Bulk Up Gallade, your team could use Wish support. Seismic toss over healing wish on blissey.
 
No no, Wish, not Healing Wish! Healing Wish makes you suicide, while Wish just lets you heal others. Suiciding Blissey is generally counterintuitive.
 
While I've used Choice Band Gallade, I highly advise that you use something like this:

- Close Combat
- Psycho Cut
- Ice Punch
- Night Slash

If you seriously fear Swampert, by all means throw Leaf Blade in here somewhere. Otherwise, use this moveset, as it's a bit more suitable and useful.

Healing Wish is bad because it requires you to sacrifice Blissey. I'd go against it.
 
OK all advise taken!
.Got rid of Mirror coat on P2, becuase it is too situational. Toxic instead.

.Switched Blissey for Slowking.. a little more original, and I actually like the pokemon Slowking.

. now for a vote.... CBmence or Specsmence for My team?
. and EQ or Leafblade on Gallade?
 
i'll be quite honest with you, i don't like teams that are very special based. blissey is just such a bitch to kill. i would consider changing one of your special sweepers into a mixed sweeper. try using mix-mence. if gallade dies, you're gonna have big problems against 70% of opposing teams.
 
alright... so i'll go with the physical mence then... I wasn't sure if I wanted it too special... I guess b/c I had NP passer I got a little out of hand!! haha
 
Edit AGAIN: You should put Porygon2 at the top of the thread so stupid people (i.e. me) who don't see '***LEAD***' can know it is in fact your lead. :P

EDIT x2: Just saw Slowking go up.

GOD, NO. Slowbro does the same thing your current Slowking does x221950937513357 better.
