tyranitar.gif
First up is Tyranitar.
Ability:Sand Stream (obviously)
EV'S:252 Attack/252 Speed/4 HP
Nature:Adamant
Item: Choice Scarf
-Pursuit
-Stone Edge
-Earthquake
-Superpower
Tyranitar is my Sand summoner and is a good physical hitter with Choice Scarf. He's also pretty bulky so if sand is up I don't mind sending him in on anything.

Next is Skarmory.
Ability: Sturdy
EV'S:252 HP/252 Defense/4 Attack
Nature:Impish
Item:Shed Shell
-Whirlwind
-Spikes
-Brave Bird
-Roost
Skarmory is my Offensive Wall with a nice 416 Defense. He's also a good Whirlwinder for those pokemon that like to set up, and he uses spikes for that extra residual damage. I picked Shed Shell for that Chandelure and Magnezone trappers.

Then it's Heatran.
Ability:Flash Fire
EV'S:252 Special Attack/252 Speed/4 HP
Nature:Timid
Item:Air Balloon
-Lava Plume
-Earth Power
-Dragon Pulse
-Stealth Rocks
Heatran is my goto guy when Skarmory or Scizor is sharing the field with a Fire type. Flash Fire plus Air Balloon is a great combo on Heatran, and he's pretty bulky, plus Stealth Rocks for the use of, well hazards. Also serves as a Special Attacker.

Alakazam.
Ability:Magic Guard
EV'S:252 Special Attack/252 Speed/4 HP
Nature: Modest
Item:Focus Sash
-Psychic
-Psyshock
-Charge Beam
-Focus Blast
Alakazam is a beast. With 405 Special Attack and 339 Speed, plus Magic Guard, he's an excellent revenge killer.

Up next:Tentacruel.
Ability:Can't quite decide which to use:Clear Body or Liquid Ooze. (PO so I can change anytime)
EV'S:252 Special Defense/252 Special Attack/4 HP (Thinking of switch HP and Special Attack EV'S)
Nature:Calm
Item:Black Sludge
-Scald
-Toxic Spikes
-Rapid Spin
-Venoshock (Want to change this)
Now, I know you're probably wondering, why Tentacruel on a Sandstorm team? The answer is why not? I know he can't abuse Rain Dish, but at least he's unexpected and a Water type for extra coverage isn't bad right?

SCIZOR.
Ability:Technician
EV'S:252 Attack/248 HP/8 Speed
Nature:Adamant
Item:Choice Band
-Bullet Punch
-U-turn
-Pursuit
-Superpower
Yes, I know. Scizor is overused. But it's for a reason. That priority move is awesome. I originally had Terrakion, but changed it to Scizor because Scizor is a better Choice Bander in my opinion with Choice banded, Technician boost, STAB, Bullet Punch.
