Rate my Team :)

Is my first time posting here in smogon, and I am really a noob when you talk about pokemon and thanks to smogon and some pagesI read I have become a little better, and this is my favorite team, which I consider very good, so I am only asking for feedback.
The team concist of:

Skarmory_E.gif

Skarmory (M) With Leftovers
Trait: Sturdy
EVs: 252 HP / 252 def / 4 Spd
Impish Nature (-SAtk, +Def)
- Spikes
- Stelth Rock
- Brave Bird
- Whirlwind

I use it to put the rocks and spikes, but sometimes use it to beat fighters

Hydreigon_NB.gif

Hydreigon (M) with Choice Scarf
Trait: Levitate
EVs: 4 HP / 252 SAtk / 252 Spd
Modest Nature (+SAtk, -Atk)
- Dragon Pulse
- Flame Thrower
- Dark Pulse
- Focus Blast

he has a lot of Spd and Satk

Salamence_E.gif

Salamance (M) with Life Orb
Trait: Intimidate
EVs: 252 atk / 4 def / 252 Spd
Jolly Nature (-SAtk, +Spd)
- Dragon Dance
- Outrage
- Fire Fang
- Earthquake

He is my principal sweeper, with his Dragon Dance he can easily kill most of the pokemons the problem is when I use outrage, and they send steel pokemons.

Eelektross_NB.gif

Eelektross (M) with Leftovers
Trait: Levitate
EVs: 252 HP / 252 SAtk / 4 SDef
Modest Nature (+SAtk, -Atk)
- Thunderbolt
- Flamethrower
- Hidden Power(ice)
- Grass Knot

He is my Sp Sweeper with his variety of attacks I can kill two or three pokemons before it's low defense and sp defense comes into play.

Blissey_E.gif

Blissey (F) with Leftovers
Trait: Natural Cure
EVs: 252 HP / 252 Def / 4 Spd
Modest Nature (+SAtk, -Atk)
- Wish
- Thunderbolt
- Flamethrower
- Icebeam

A lifesaver when it comes to cure the team, and with his sp atk I can kill one or two pokemons without getting killed.

Snorlax (M) with Leftovers
Trait: Thick Fat
EVs: 252 Atk / 4 Def / 252 SDef
Adamant Nature (-SAtk, +Atk)
- Body Slam
- Crunch
- Earthquake
- Superpower

With his high attack he can sweep two or three spdefense and with his high Sdef is a good change when I need to change Hydreigon.


I am having a lot of trouble with pokemons as Terrakion and Fighting Pokemons in general and I have a terrible losing streak, even thought I consider my team to be extremely good, it may have some mistakes that's why I am posting it so you can give me your opinions in what to change.
 
Hi, and welcome to Smogon! Here are a few tips for posting. As LighTz911 said, you need to describe each Pokemon more. For example, describe its role on the team, what it can and can't handle, and generally how you feel that Pokemon is working on your team. Also, be more specific on your threats list, so we know exactly what gives you trouble. Now, about your team, as for type matchup, 3 of your pokemon are weak to fighting, and 2 are weak to dragon. Skarmory can take care of fighters pretty well, but he is also in the lead, which puts him in danger of dying early on. Also, most of your team is specially defensive and weak on the physical side, which could be your reason for losing to fighters. If you are playing in DW OU, you might want to have a designated lead instead. Also, your team is a tad slow. Eelektross, if you are using him as your Special Sweeper, should be faster. Also, you are trying to use Snorlax as a sweeper, when he is really meant to be used as a wall. Yes, he does have decent attack, but he has way better HP, and he is also too slow for sweeping. Instead, use him more to take hits and counter attack.
I know that was a mouthful, but I hope it helps! Good luck!
 
Hi. Welcome to Smogon.

Alright, so first things first, your sets seem like they're put together without rhyme or reason. Here are some tips.

Skarmory: You need to drop either Spikes or Stealth Rock and replace it with Roost. Roost turns Skarmory into a huge physical tank, so it can sponge dragon moves all day and heal up easily.

Hydreigon: If you're using Hydreigon for speed, you need to look elsewhere. Hydreigon isn't exactly slow, put he can't keep up with the fast threats that run rampant these days. Choice Scarf Latios would be better for the team, as you gain a superfast Dragon and lose a fighting weakness too. The set should be Draco Meteor/Hidden Power (Fire)/Surf/Trick, with EVs of 4 HP, 252 SP.Attack, and 252 Speed. This will give you maximum power and speed, perfect coverage, and the ability to lock walls into a single attack by using Trick.

Salamence: Be sure to remove the steel types before you go for the sweep.

Elektross: Okay here.

Blissey: Don't even try running an attacking set with Blissey. It's SP. Attack stat is weak, and it's better off supporting then attacking.

Snorlax: Much to slow to sweep unless you are using a Curselax set so that you don't get hit as hard on the physical side.

You may want to spend a little time looking at what the pros are packing and see how their teams work before trying to put together a team.

Anyways, sorry if I seem a bit harsh, but I'm just trying to help you out.
