Reampd single team

[13laze13oy]

well after some more testing I have created my new team. I am open to critiques.
I have been around Serebii and have seen my share of smogon teams and heres a team idea I have. Please dnt be too hard on me I am new but I am open to others ideas.
this is a new singles team that I have used on PO and its done well so far...so tell me what you think

Summary:

Azelf@Focus Sash
Hasty-252Spattk-252Spe
-SR
-Taunt
-Fire Blast
-Explosion

A rather bland lead Azelf. Sr is a great entry hazard while Taunt destroys stallers and other entry hazard users. Fire Blast is very usefull for Skarmory and other steel leads like Metagross. Explosion is pretty obvious. So far the only real troublesome leads are choice scarf leads and Aerodactyl which outspeeds and taunts Azelf. Otherwise I can usually just switch in if the opponent lead will take out Azelf.

Venusaur@Black Sludge
Bold-252SpDef-252Hp
-Energy Ball
-HP Fire
-Sleep Powder
-Leech Seed

This used to be a Roserade but after deciding to ditch Toxic Spikes I needed a bulkier grass type. Venusaur was my choice. With him i still get Sleep Powder and grass fire coverage. Leech seed was chosen over synthesis to help support my team a bit and for nice residual damage. Hp Fire is for Steels and Energy ball is for bulky waters especially Swampert who Zapdos hates. Black Sludge is for recovery. Im using Venusaur also to take out other Toxic Spikes which are quite annoying.

Suicune@Leftovers
Timid-32Hp-252Spatk-224Spe
-Surf
-HP Electric
-Substitute
-Calm Mind

Calm Mind Suicune is a monster. With a few CMs and decent coverage few can stop it. Sub prevents status and lets me set up more. Toxic Spikes prevent it from being a sitting duck while CM. HP Electric destroys Gyarados and other Bulky Waters that try to switch in. Ive gone with an offensive set to surprise the opponent who will think its the common crocune and it outspeeds a decent amount of opponents.

Zapdos@Leftovers
Bold-248Hp-224Def-36Spe
-Thunderbolt
-Hp Ice
-Roost
-Toxic

Zapdos is another nice semi staller that pairs well with Suicune. Its a defensive ev spread since Suicune sponges up most special attacks. Thunderbolt is a nice attack in general and STAB helps. HP Ice is of course terrific coverage in tandem with electric. HP Grass is unneeded with Venusaur destroying Swampert. Toxic are for those annoying tanks that will out stall my team.

Scizor(Technician)@Choice Band
Adamant-252Spe-252Atk
-U turn
-Bullet Punch
-Pursuit
-Superpower

Scizor is a great revenge killer with its technician STAB Bullet Punches. Choice Band adds power to the low base power moves. Pursuit is great for pokes switching out such as Gengar and Azelf. Superpower is just great against Heatran who can be trouble and Tyranitar to get back the attack loss. The main issue here of course is that any poke that resists BP is very hard to take down such as bulky waters in which case i will use U turn.

Infernape @ Life Orb
Naive
252 Atk / 64 SpAtk / 192 Spe
-Close Combat
-U-Turn
-Stone Edge
-Overheat

The last slot is still kinda hazy but so far im using this Infernape. Life Orb and nice speed are deadly while STAB Fire and Fighting is nice. Close Combat is a terrific move for some top threats(Tyranitar, Heatran, Snorlax) and Stone Edge of course for flying types. U turn is for scouting and some free damage.

Threats list:
Ddance Gyarados-gets up 1 ddance while i switch in Zapdos and gets kod my thunderbolt.
Tyranitar-either kod by SuperPower or Closecombat
Hippowdon-Suicune surfs it to death
Scizor-tanked bp and Thunderbolted by Zapdos
Heatran-Suicune absorbs Fireblast and sets up
Ddance Dragonite-same as Gyarados
Choice Scarf Flygon-Tanked by Zapdos
Swampert-Venusaur tanks and uses Energy Ball
Suicune-Venusaur can tank its Surf and leech seed it or Zapdos can use Toxic if its not a crocune.


Well thats it please tell me what you think and any suggestions.

Seems like a pretty decent team, as it's implementing a strong strategy and the general structure of the team is pretty solid; the synergy among your Pokemon has also been created in a strategic manner furthermore increasing your team's overall efficiency. However, I see some Pokemon that may cause considerable problems; the foremost of these troublesome Pokemon include dragon dance Gyarados (you say that Zapdos can revenge kill it with thunderbolt, but after a dragon dance, it will outpace Zapdos and KO with Stone Edge), and dragon dance Dragonite, although there are quite a few other Pokemon that may prove to be threats, although when compared to the former two, they can can be classified as minor (others include offensive Jirachi as well as substitute Gengar).

To help with the troublesome dragon dancers, Gyarados and Dragonite, I'm going to be suggesting one change that will minimally alter this team's play style while simultaneously improving and strengthening its structure and core. I recommend your try out a choice scarf Flygon on your team (preferably over Venusaur, as it seems to be the weakest link on your team; doesn't really contribute to your defensive core as with Suicune and Zapdos, Venusaur is largely unneeded) as Flygon does magnificently at revenge killing both the aforementioned dragon dancers even if they are at +1 speed. Also, Flygon, when paired up with choice band Scizor, does nicely at causing many switches inn opposing ranks, giving more opportunities for your sweepers to come in and set up. I hope this has helped, and good luck!
