Team Strategy
Gyarados is my main sweeper with some more sweepers and walls. I will try and use my pokemon’s weakness to my advantage or to stop them from destroying my pokes. For Example if Gyarados is in and I think the opposing Electivire will use Thunder Punch I will switch in to Swapert to absorb it. So while doing that I will either Weaknen them, wear them out or find a weak spot and start sweeping.


Gyarados@ Leftovers
Trait: Intimidate
EVs: 252 Spd / 252 Atk / 6 HP
Jolly Nature (+Spd, -SAtk)
-Dragon Dance
-Waterfall
-Ice Fang
-Earthquake

My main Sweeper with a standard set.


Swapert @ Leftovers
Trait: Torrent
Evs: 240 HP / 56 Atk / 212 Def
Impish Nature (+Def, -SAtk)
-Stealth Rock
-Roar
-Earthquake
-Ice Punch/ Snow slide/ Waterfall

This guy is kind of both a wall and a attacker. I gave him stealth rock so I wouldn’t have to use Skarm and have a bigger Weakness to Electric.


Blissey @ Leftovers
Trait: Nature Cure
Evs: 212 HP / 252 Def / 44 SDef
Bold Nature (+Def, - Atk)
-Ice Beam
-Seismic Toss
-Softboiled
-Heal Bell

This is my Special Wall Standard set.


Dusknoir @ Leftovers/ Lum Berry
Trait: Pressure
Impish Nature (+Def, -SAtk)
Evs: 252 HP / 126 Def / 126 SDef
-Focus Punch/ Earthquake
-Shadow Punch
-Toxic/ Will-o-Wisp
-Pain Split/ Rest

I will use this guy as my Physical Wall but he is a mixed Tank. He can also come in if I think Bliss is going to get hit with a Fighting attack or an Earthquake attack and not be affected or not that badly damaged.


Infernape @ Life Orb/ Leftovers
Trait: Blaze
Naïve Nature (+Spd, -SDef)
Evs: 32 Attack / 228 Speed / 252 Special Attack
-In-Fight
-Flamethrower
-Grass Rope
-Scheme

This is my Mixed sweeper and it helps that if I f they have a grass type I wont get destroyed I was thinking about making him into a complete physical attacker maybe even Cber and adding Somersault so if they have Ludicolo I can deal with him.


Erlade @ Leftover / Concentration Band
Trait: Humble Heart
Adamant Nature (+Atk, - SAtk)
EVs: 252 Atk / ??????????
-?????
-Rockslide
-Leaf Blade
-Dark Pulse

I wasn’t to sure about this last one I’ am open for suggestions for this last spot cause quite frankly I had no clue who to put in this last spot I was thinking Garchomp or Electivire.


Garchomp – Gyarados, Swapert take care if him
Tyranitar – Infernape,
Gyarados- Erlade can Rockslide
Infernape – Swapert, Gyarados
Gengar - Erlade
Azlef – Dusknoir, Erlade
Heracross -Infernape
PorygonZ - Infernape
Electivire – Swapert, Dusknoir
Swampert - Erlade
Togekiss – Erlade can Rockslide
Weavile – Infernape, Erlade Rockslide
Salamence – Swapert, Gyarados
Snorlax – Infernape can In fight
Heatran – Swapert Earthquakes
Raikou -Swapert can Earthquake unless HP Grass
 
Gallade should generally have some support moves, like Thunder Wave, Wisp, Hypnosis, or Wish. All-out offensive sets are done better by Heracross.

I think "strategy" should involve more than basic "switch to X's counter when X comes in".


 
I'd put Wish on Gallade, as you definitely need some form of recovery for Swampert to help you take on Tyranitar better. Also, Blade Test over Dark Pulse on Gallade as Blade Test runs off of your much higher attack stat (and has a high CH rate to boot).

You will have some trouble with Tyranitar, I expect. Infernape is most definitely not a Tyranitar counter, it cannot switch in to it except maybe on Crunch. Swampert is a pretty good counter for it, but it does need some help with recovery or it will be worn down fairly quickly. This is where Wish on Gallade comes in, but you may have some difficulty pulling it off (only experience will show, and I don't have experience in that matter).
 
While you attempted to address the threat on the Threat Checklist, you do not have an uderstanding of how pokemon works and what makes a coutner a counter. Infernape can't switch into Heracross at all, or tyranitar, or PorygonZ, or Snorlax. Erlade's Rock Slide isn't going to OHKO Gyarados, and so on. I'm not trying to be rude when I ask you this, but seriously, have you ever played competitive pokemon before?
 
I'm not sure Gallade can get Wish, it's a level up move for Gardevoir only.

There's more to countering than having a super effective attack. For example, Gallade despite it's good special defense won't like switching into an Air Slash from Togekiss.
 
Garchomp – Gyarados, Swapert take care if him. K
Tyranitar – Infernape, Infernape can't switch into Tyranitar
Gyarados- Erlade can Rockslide No
Infernape – Swapert, Gyarados K
Gengar - Erlade Dies to Shadow Ball
Azlef – Dusknoir, Erlade Maybe
Heracross -Infernape Good luck with this one. One wrong move and you're toast
PorygonZ - Infernape Infernape can't switch into PorygonZ
Electivire – Swapert, Dusknoir K
Swampert - Erlade Elrade is 2HKOed by Quake and Leaf Blade doesn't OHKO
Togekiss – Erlade can Rockslide Air Slash wipes Elrade out
Weavile – Infernape, Erlade Rockslide Elrade loses to Weavile if it(elrade) switches in . Infernape might be ok
Salamence – Swapert, Gyarados K
Snorlax – Infernape can In fight Good luck switching Infernape into Snorlax
Heatran – Swapert Earthquakes K
Raikou -Swapert can Earthquake unless HP Grass K

I changed my mind about Gallade i would but i can't get Wish and apparently doesn't help with my threat list which now TTar, Gyarados, Gengar, Heracross, Porygon Z, Swapert, Togekiss, Weavile, Snorlax, and Maybe Azelf looking at them most of them either have a fighting or Rock weakness. I can't think who to use i think Torterra could cover a lot of them cause he can learn Rok slide and Stone Edge but im not sure any Suggestions? I was also thinking Lucario but still not sure
