Hello guys, I am pretty new to competitive pokemon battling and I created a team that does ok but I feel like it can be so much better. I want to post it and hopefully get some feedback on how it can be improved.
Pokemon: Espeon
Item: Light Clay
Ability: Magic Bounce
Moves: Reflect, light screen, psychic, baton pass
EV's: 252 HP, 4 SpA, 252 Spe
Nature: Timid
Espeon is used as a possible starter to reflect spike set ups while setting up screens. It is also a pretty fast psychic user which is a plus. I have baton pass as an escape from pursuit users just in case I run into one.
Pokemon: Infernape
Item: Life Orb
Ability: Iron Fist
Moves: Overheat, U-Turn, Mach Punch, Close Combat
EV's: 252 Atk, 4SpA, 252 Spe
Nature: Hasty
Infernape is used for type diversity. I have him as a counter for popular stall pokemon like ferrothorn and chansey. I also use him as a scout sometimes using U-turn.
Pokemon: Scizor
Item: Choice Band
Ability: Technician
Moves: U-Turn, Bullet Punch, Pursuit, Superpower
EV's: 248 HP, 252 Atk, 8 SpD
Nature: Adamant
My main purpose for scizor is to outspeed pokemon like landorus. I have absolutely no idea how to counter them effectively so having a steel type with priority was my first thought. The choice band is for obvious purposes but I hate getting locked into moves
Pokemon: Latios
Item: Life Orb
Ability: Levitate
Moves: psyshock, draco meteor, surf, thunder
EV's: 4 HP, 252 SpA, 252 Spe
Nature: Timid
Latios is my #1 sweeper. He is very fast and has some good moves but most of my moves don't kill unless they are supereffective even with the life orb. I have thunder as a rain team counter but this doesn't work as often as I'd like.
Pokemon: Garchomp
Item: Focus Sash
Ability: Rough Skin
Moves: Stealth Rock, Outrage, Earthquake, Swords Dance
EV's: 4 HP, 252 Atk, 252 Spe
Nature: Jolly
Garchomp is used as a physical dragon sweep as well as setting up rocks. He has focus sash so that he can take a hit from a rival dragon and possibly kill with outrage. He is mainly on the team as a dragon-killer.
Pokemon: Rotom-W
Item: Leftovers
Ability: Levitate
Moves: volt switch, Hydro pump, Will-o-wisp, Pain split
EV's: 232 HP, 56 SpA, 220 Spe
Nature: Modest
Rotom is on the team because of his typing. He is immune to ground attacks and can scout with his volt switch. He also is a rain counter.
Any feedback will be greatly appreciated.
