Rate this team, its what your here for. FREE FOOD INSIDE!

no food i lied.

Well, this is my shot at a Sandstorm team. I know its not much, I came up with it like 2 seconds ago. I’ve tested it on shoddy 10 times and lost only 2 times. 80% isn’t bad but I need some suggestions on it. I try to cover some weaknesses with the last pokemon but im still not sure. So, rate away!

PorygonZ.png

Porygon Z @ Choice Scarf
Modest Nature
252 SPATK/252 SPD/6 HP

Tri Attack
Dark Pulse
Ice Beam
Thunderbolt

Yeah. I figured this thing was intense without that much speed. I never would have guessed what its like having over 400 speed. Bolt beam is also something good on this one. It swept a few times for me. Definitely a keeper.

Hippowdon @ Leftovers
Impish Nature
252 HP/252 DEF/6 ATK
Earthquake
Ice Fang
Roar
Slack Off

Sand producer on the team. Picked this over ttar because I wanted a stallish theme when I wasn’t sweeping with PoryZ or Gengar.

Cradily @ Leftovers
Careful Nature
252 HP/82 DEF/176 SPDEF
Barrier
Recover
Rock Slide
Toxic

Can you say, annoying as hell? Sandstorm boost on sp def rocks. Lol. Get it? Rocks?

Gliscor @ Leftovers
Impish Nature
252 HP/252 DEF/6 ATK
Earthquake
Roost
Knock Off
Stealth Rock

I needed support and this thing gave it to me. Stealth rock and knock off help soooooo much against those damn walls. I might change EQ to Arial Ace for Hera and other fighting types.

Metagross.png

Metagross @ Life Orb
Adamant Nature
152 HP/252 ATK/106 SPD
Thunderpunch
Meteor Mash
Agility
Explosion

Agiligross. This is where I get shaky though, I might change this guy for a whole new poke. Any suggestions?

gengar.jpg

Gengar @ Leftovers
Timid Nature
252 SPATK/252 SPD/6 HP
Hypnosis
Energy Ball
Focus Blast
Shadow Ball (Maybe Psychic here?)

Soaks up some weaknesses (Grass, Fighting) and helps bring some more offence. Im not to sure about this guy either but its what I put in.



So, RMT!
 
Well your team does have a weakness to Gengar (lol whats Cradily gonna do) and Gyarados. You can replace Cradily with Snorlax or Heatran to take special hits since they can actually do something. The Porygon-Z lead doesn't seem useful really. Replace it with Celebi. Hippowdon or Gengar make better leads. Use thunderbolt on Gengar
 
Another option for replacing Cradily could be Shuckle. Shuckle's got good stuff going for it in Sandstorm, and doesn't back down from a special hit, and can take enough Physical hits.
 
You also have problems beating Blissey. Once Metagross is gone, you have nothing that can even dent it. You may want to look into a Garchomp or something as backup.
 
For a bulky water that resists Ice Beam, get Milotic. For one that resists Ice Punch, get Suicune. OR, get Swampert since he resists the Sand. However, Swampert will take a Grass Knot harder than Suicune or Milotic will.
 
wow i just noticed weavile walks all over me...

If were to put swampert in, what should his set be and who should he replace?
