Default My first real competitive team, and RMT in general

I'm doing this on a Wii, so I won't put effort into finding pics. Well, here goes!

Latios- Holds a WhiteHerb
Has a Modest Nature
Levitate
(252 SP.ATK, 252 SPEED, 4 SP.DEF)
Moves- Surf(For pesky Excadrills), Thunderbolt, Substitute, DracoMeteor(For quick kills)


Everyone seems to always ignore the usefulness of this Pokemon over Garchomp. This thing would WASTE a Garchomp, due to being faster, and with even more speed, this thing can kill any sweeper and Dragon with one DracoMeteor, and a WhiteHerb to back it up can end the battle *snap* just like that. Substitute's here to take advantage of an opponent's emergency switch-out, Surf for Ground-types, and Thunderbolt against Politoed and Jellicent.

Cobalion- Holds a FocusSash
Has an Impish Nature
Justified
(252 ATK, 252 DEF, 4 SPEED)
Moves- SacredSword, IronHead, CloseCombat, GigaImpact


Well this one's very simple. Bash the opponent. Holds a FocusSash to retaliate against a special sweeper.

Tyranitar- Holds a Leftovers
Has a Sassy Nature
SandStream
(252 SP.DEF, 252 SP.ATK, 4 ATK)
Moves- Flamethrower(For occasional BugSteel and Ferrothorn), StealthRock,
Pursuit, Protect


Like noted, there are more Grass, Steel, and Bug-types than ever, because of Drizzle Politoed, new ice types, so Flamethrower and Thunderbolt is real useful. Pursuit also works on Psychics and Ghosts needing a good switch-out.

Scrafty- Holds a ChopleBerry
Has a Relaxed Nature
ShedSkin
(252 DEF, 252 ATK, 4 SP.DEF)
Moves- DrainPunch, Payback, HighJumpKick, Toxic


Good 'ol stall formula. Inflict effects, and keep health high. No simpler.

Forretress- Holds a NormalGem
Has an Adamant Nature
Sturdy
(252 DEF, 252 ATK, 4HP)
Moves- Explosion, Spikes, IronDefense, VoltSwitch

I'm experimenting with this. It could easily take-down a Swampert. And Drizzle Politoeds have no chance, then I could switch into Tyranitar. Otherwise, it's just made for setting up traps.

Garchomp- Holds a YacheBerry
Has an Adamant Nature
SandVeil
(252 ATK, 252 SPEED, 4 HP)
Moves- Earthquake, BrickBreak, DragonRush, Aerial Ace
SandVeil

The grand-daddy of attackers, it's so good, some sites have it in ubers. That's what you call bad~. Attack Pokemon with unexpected moves to have the upper hand. Doesn't get more old-school than that.


Now it's done! Feel free to give your opinion!

This is a... Weird Latios set. xD I'd keep the EVs, but the moveset is... odd. Hold Choice Specs and always have trick there if you want to screw up their physical sweeper. The nature, I'd change to Timid. Other than that, looks good. o-o

Looks REALLY good. I'd get rid of Giga Impact to put down Swords Dance. o-o That's just me, though. Change the Defense EVs to Speed, and you'll be sweeping!

This is an odd set, if I had to say so myself. x3 Stealth Rock is great. Flamethrower is good with your EVs. I'd replace Pursuit with something like Payback.

Oh look, a Scrafty! Most scrafties carry the same set, but if you're using it as a staller, it looks REALLY good. Nothing much to say...

Forretress- Holds a NormalGem

Explosion is really good with Normal Gem. This set is weird. But I like it. o-o

It's uber, just saying. xD But it looks really good. Replace Dragon Rush with Dragon Tail if you want to annoy them with Entry Hazards or replace it with OutRRRAAEEGGG. Other than that, looks great!
