Timid Nature

-Hidden Power Fighting/ Ice
-Trick
-Charge Beam

My lead handles Aredoctyl, Un-Sashed Mega, Gengar, and Bronzong. Charge beam takes out gyrados 3hko vaporeon might switch HP fight to ice for mence and chomp switches. Fight is for TTar and Weavile, Cario and Heatran assuming its not scarfed.

I am always a bit finicy on using legendaries but i put this thing on my team a few days ago all i can say is beastly i use to run him with skarm but the big defesit that put me at convinced me to switch my team around a bit and take skarm out both walls weak to eletric not smart >.>. I ran ice beam b4 but HP eletric gives me the power to take out gyra and other flyers not to mention milotic which resulted in a very long drawn out battle i won it had no hypnosis for some reason and died after 3 6 calm mind boosted surf's while it walled and pressured out his Dragon pulses and it eventually resorted to surf and aqua ring strange set 0.o.

Your Alakazam fare very bad against some common leads, especially Yanmega, Aerodactyl and Dual Screen Deoxys-S, even Bronzong. I can see how Choice Scarf could've screwed some leads over, but not Specs. :/ You'll beat Azelf, though not prevent it from doing its job. Still, Choice Scarf seems superior to Specs on TrickZam as a lead, however if you'd like to keep your Choice Specs you could always lead with your Spiritomb. It's a really underated lead, and will serve you good against the likes of Gengar, Azelf, Bronzong and even Deoxys-S. Lum Berry would help you even further against Gengar.

The sad thing with Expert Belt Sceptile is that Expert Belt doesn't boost the power of Leaf Storm unless it's super effective. I think the recoil from Life Orb is worth it. Some other moves to consider is Earthquake and X-Scissor, who'll handle Heatran and Celebi respectively which is two common switches to avoid Leaf Storm. Dragon Pulse is really an inferior HP Ice, and considering you already run HP Ice.. Yeah.

Fire Blast is useless on Rampardos imo. Earthquake already annihilate Bronzong due Mold Breaker, and Fire Blast doesn't do enough to even 2HKO Skarmory according to my calculations. That's with Leftovers as a factor, though. Rampardos is a glass cannon and isn't going to last for too long, so Head Smash could be a good idea to try out. If you're lucky you may even score a 2HKO Skarmory. (:

If your Suicune is sleeping you have no hope against Gyarados, so I don't think you can afford running Rest without Sleep Talk. :/ Just a heads up.
