    Hi! I am the infamously bad poster/battler who actually did something right!

    This is a flying Monotype team (yes.... it is...) and I knew it would be good, enough to get someone of my standard to about 1065 but nope, 1201!

    I know 1201 is nothing to brag about seeing how so many people get to about 1500+ but remember who is posting this.........

    Onto the team.....
    At a glance!!!!! (At a glance is always hell to do)
    [​IMG] [​IMG] [​IMG][​IMG] [​IMG] [​IMG]


    So as you can see, this team is a pretty balanced team with 3 sweepers, 1 wall and 2 trollmons.

    In Depth (still hell but less hell)

    Dragonite @Weakness Policy
    Multiscale
    Adamant 252 Atk/128 Def/128 Sp. Def
    Dragon Dance
    Outrage

    Extreme Speed
    Fire Punch

    Dragonite is the 'Sweeper'. It has quotation marks because it is usually my lead and no lead really does well as a sweeper. Dragonite is mainly just a Bulky Attacker with DDance. The reason it has a Weakness Policy and Defense Evs is because if the opponent thinks they can use an Ice move then I just LOL at them because Multiscale means it'll probably only do ~50% then I get +2 attack, +3 is I use DDance. Outrage is there because Dragon isn't a great attacking type as its only good choice are the somewhat average Dragon Claw or Outrage, which gets locked. I decided to use both on my team and Dragonite happened to get Outrage. Extreme Speed is there because f*ck setup sweepers and Fire Punch is there because f*ck Skarmory and Ice.

    Landorus-T @ Choice Scarf
    Intimidate
    Adamant 252 Atk/252 Spd/4HP

    Earthquake
    Knock Off
    Outrage
    Stone Edge

    This is the very basic Lando-T set except I chose Outrage over U-Turn. It is mainly a way to surprise people when they think they're all safe switching into their dragons....so warm and snugly safe...... BAM! Other than that there isn't really anything to say so well..... next pokemon

    Charizard @ Charizardite X
    Blaze
    Adamant 4HP/252 Atk/252 Spd
    Dragon Dance
    Flare Blitz

    Substitute
    Dragon Claw

    SubDance set (is that a thing?). People very often switch or try to use a status move when they see Mega Charizard X so I use substitute to get either a free attack or a free DDance. Flare Blitz is only use against things that Dragon Claw can't hit effectively and I chose Dragon Claw over Outrage because Outrage is very unreliable on MegaCharX. This by far the best functioning sweeper on the team.

    Skarmory @ Rocky Helmet

    Sturdy
    Impish 236 HP/252 Def/20 Atk
    Roost
    Iron Defense
    Brave Bird
    Defog

    My defogger of the team and the wall. Roost is for health regain, Brave Bird is for some attack if Special Attacker and Defog is because Defog. The weird choice though is Iron Defense. I chose this because many Skarmory sets I see get 2HKOed by many pokemon with high attack. I use this while I predict a switch so it is safely kept.

    Thundurus @ Life Orb
    Prankster
    Modest 252 Spd/252 Sp. Atk/4 HP
    Thunder Wave
    Thunder Bolt
    Taunt

    Substitute

    This is my favourite trollmon of the team. It can Twave pokemon to get rid of sweepers or stall, it can use Taunt to get rid of stall and walls, it can use Substitute during a switch to get a free move and the Life Orb gives Thunder Bolt so much power. The amount of times people have forfeited because of Thundurus is just......... :smile:

    upload_2015-4-28_22-38-27.jpeg
    Togekiss @ Choice Scarf
    Serene Grace (always)
    Modest 252 Sp. Atk/ 252 Spd/4 HP
    Air Slash
    Psychic

    Dazzling Gleam
    Aura Sphere


    #Flinchhax.
    This pokemon is just the definition of hax..... 60% flinch rate.......... 85% with Twave. Psychic is there for lowering Sp. Def, Dazzling Gleam is best fairy STAB and Aura Sphere is coverage for Rock and Steel types.
    Togekiss is a flinch god and deserves to end this team.


    Cradily - Can't hit it with anything but Togekiss, which usually walls it anyway
    Skarmory - Gets walled by everything but Thundurus
    Heatran - Can't hit with much
    Hax - This team dies if hax happens..........

    hiya swanna :3, nice team, I have some suggestions:

    - Weakness police Dnite looks good, only thing which can be changed is the Adamant nature to Jolly nature, because what your dnite need isn't power that much (dragon dance and weakness police are enough), but speed, even after a dragon dance you dnite is so revenge killable. Also change those 128/128 defenses and put them on 252 HP if you like bulk.

    - Iron defense on skarmory just no, its so overkill: 140 skarmory defenses + impish nature + max defenses = you dont need iron defense, change it for Stealth rocks which your team lacks, so you can defog opponent rocks and put ur own rocks all in 1.

    - Substitute on thundurus-t is a bit weird, specially when it is using life orb, its going to be dying quickly, also your set is so bait for ground pokes. So change it to an anti-lead set (i think that was your idea on thundurus idk) with: tbolt, hp ice, t-wave, taunt. Also use timid becos thundy needs all the speed possible to always hit first.

    -On togekiss change psychic (which dont offer coverage and is meh) for 1 of these 2: Fire Blast (hit skarmory, ferrothorn and friends..) or Trick (to annoy chanbliss, shuckle or other walls)

    - I don't think Lando-T accomplishes so much in this team, u have already a scarfer on toge and a physical wall on skarmory, so maybe u can need a special wall, specially to take on ice attacks, bulky gyarados can be an option (it even have intimidate too like lando)
    Gyarados@Leftovers
    Ability: Intimidate
    Nature: Careful
    248 HP/252 SpD/8 Spe
    Rest, Sleep Talk, Dragon Tail, Waterfall/Thunder Wave
    Sure you lose your electric immunity with Lando gone, but you can always replace Thundurus-I for Thundurus-T for dat.

    -Mega char looks good, cool set btw :3

    Hope i helped, good luck with team!

    Em hi,
    I have lot of suggestions for you fren:
    - Use speed investment on Dnite, at least to outspeed 130 base speed at +1.. ( I'll let you do the calc cause i'm tired)
    - Use Jolly on Landorus-T, it's 91 speed can help it outspeeding 90 scarfers, so yeah.
    - Remove Outrage for U-turn, there's no reason to not gain momentum
    - Sub DD is cool, but except Twave, there's nothing special sub gonna give you ( maybe Tflame Bbirds), I would play Roost with some bulk
    - Replace Iron defense for Whirlwind/Counter, both work, but I prefer the first one
    - Remove Substitute on Thundurus for Hp ice, help you dealing with some ground types.
    - Remove Psychic for Fire Blast/Flamethrower on Togekiss, helps you dealing with lot of steels.

    I've tried Gyarados and it hasn't worked well for me at all.
