And are there any good staples?I think Spikes,statuses,annoying typing,good defensive stats are staples.Any specific moves/pokemon are EXCELLENT/MUST HAVES for stall teams?
I'm just curious,since I've heard a lot of chatter about stall teams.
 
Most of the recent, long-lasting discussion threads have been about stalling, and the RMTs also have a decent bunch of kids making stall teams
Lurk more please :/
 
A sandstorm is nice. Hippowdon, Gliscor, and cradily can work well together, through in 2 ice resists and you have a basic skeleton
 
Spiritomb is pretty good because he can use his low HP to pain split away any damage he takes, and his defenses are great along with 0 weakness typing. Plus he has pressure, I have ran quite a few people out of PP on their walls with him. A struggle blissey dosn't tend to work too well.
 
Try mixing Spikes and Stealth Rock with things that like to force switches. For instance not many things like staying in on Toxic or Leech Seed too long.
 
Spikes, Stealth Rock, and Rapid Spin are must haves for a stall team. Spikes and SR are the main source of damage for a stall team and Rapid Spin is needed for enemy stall teams since you will be switching alot. Toxic and Toxic Spikes also help wear teams down and Leech Seed can force switches while still draining their HP. Knock Off is also an useful move in getting rid of their leftovers so sandstorm can leech their HP.

You would also want to negate their leftovers so having TTar, Hippo, or Abomasnow is also a must. I wouldn't recommend Abomasnow though unless you plan on copying DT and making a hail stall team.

Skarm, Hippo, TTar, Blissey, Shuckle, Forretress, Cresselia, Starmie, Gliscor, and Dusknoir are all good pokemon for a stall team.
 
IMO spikes+toxic spikes+stealth rock+sandstorm/hail+leech seed+gliscor =a pretty decent stall team note that Gliscor is there to prevent a guts-boosted Cross from raping the shit out of you.
