- sleep powder
- leaf storm
-hp ice

roserade basic job is to make sure to get toxic spikes up. if i know roserade is faster than the other lead i wll put it to sleep and then proceed to set up toxic spikes. also if there a known taunters leading i can use strong attacks to dent them and break there sashes. hp ice is there to take out annoying dragons. he can also be a late game sweeper if its still alive by then.

4hp/252spa/252spe
-stealth rock
- earth power
- fire blast
- dragon pulse

Heatran is ready to come in as it resits most of roserades weakness. heatran induces switches thanks to its typing i can set up stealh rocks in this time. if i manage to get my fire moves powered up i can use stab fire blast for big damage. dragon pulse and earth power are there to cover the other threats.

Synergy
Ground: Gyarados, Rotom-W
Water: Roserade, Gyarados
Fighting: Rotom-W, Roserade, Gyarados



Bulky Dragon Dancer

Gyarados@leftovers nick: Ruca
Adamant
156Hp/72atk/96def/184spe
-waterfall
- dragon dance
-stone edge
-earthquake

Gyarados is a fantastic dragon dancer thanks to its good typing and complements roserade and heatran. i send him in wen my opponent switches i can set up and use waterfall for strong stab damage. earthquake and stone edge are to hit threats even harder after dragon dance. gyaradosis the only one of my team weak to stealth rocks so leftover will aid me with that. possible changes are putting roar or taunt in there.

Synergy:
Electric: Rotom-W, Roserade
Rock: Metagross

252Spa/4spd/252spe
-thunderbolt
- hydro pump
- shadow ball
- trick

rotom is great as it comes in on earthquakes which is useful and depending on my opponent i can trick them choice specs if there trying to set up or stall me. or i can use the specs myself to get great coverage with my attacks. stab thunderbolt and shadow ball will be useful for taking bulky pokemon down and hydro pump to cover my slight fire pokemon fire.

Synergy:
Dark: Heatran, Scizor
Ghost: Heatran, Scizor

-bullet punch
- u-turn
-pursuit
-superpower

scizor makes a great scouter of pokemon. with u-turn and choice scarf scizor can quickly check my opponent with a good stab attacks. bullet punch is to quickly finish off weakened pokemon. pursuit is great for trapping ghosts psychic and destroying them. superpower is jus a power move if i think i need it i will switch out after using it.

Synergy
Fire: Heatran, Gyarados

metagross@Life Orb. nick: Yusei Fudo
adamant
4hp/ 252atk/252spe
-meteor mash
- earthquake
- agility
- thunderpunch

metagross is great for causing switches while this happens i can agility and proceed to sweep. metagross is very powerful life orbed meteor mash dismantles anyone who doesnt resist it. eq just gets rid of the likes of heatran and infernape who wanna switch in on me. thunderpunch for unsuspecting gyarardos. i was thinking of using ice punch but i opted for thunder punch.

Synergy
Ground: Gyarados, Rotom-W
Fire: Heatran, Gyarados

and thats my team team tell me what you think i know its not perfect it needs some tweaking and it should be good to go
 
Infernape should have a Life Orb really, and Swampert should pack leftovers.

However, I see a massive Lucario weakness who can set up on Infernape locked in Grass Knot or Hidden Power, as well as Metagross locked in Bullet Punch, and then procede to sweep your team. You may want to switch Rotom-C for a Scarfed Rotom-H, who effectively checks Lucario.

When your spreading Toxic Spikes about, I don't see the use of Will-o-Wisp anyway.
 
seems like reasonable changes ill give it a try what item could starmie use instead. anymore advice would be useful from anyone
 
Major updated: i started to lose matches so i decided to revamp my team so i have edited my 1st post to reflect the changes.

Swampert out, Heatran in
Starmie out, Gyarados in
Infernape out, Scizor

this team is battling great with better synergy plus they all resist toxic spikes which is great. so please rate and comment on any more changes there must be som way to improve it.
