Staraptor

Is this good? Discharge raises Electrive's speed, and Earthquake won't hit zapdos. Ice Punch is to take care of Ground-types and Dragons OU pokemon. It covers 18 of the Ubers,and gets hits on the more common forms of Arceus. The other two are to finish them off if one fails.

Need LOADS of help with the evs. this is my first ev trained team.

It is for double battles.

Think of it this way; if the rest of your team is Lv.1 Pidgeys and Caterpies, then your team sucks. That's why you need to post your full team.

If you like, you can simply post a total of four Pokes and call it a Battle Tower team.
 
Post EV's, items, and 4 more pokemon or I guarantee this thread will be closed when Wiil finds it.
 
OK, team is updated. it is for the battle frontier double battling.
 
it is for the battle frontier now, but soon i will expand it to competitive battling
 
And is therefore closed. The rules for posting state that EVs are required in your post.

Re-opened. Help him with his EV spreads.

Okay! A common Expert Belt Physical Sweeper.

Rotom
Item: Focus Sash
EVs: 4 Defense / 252 Sp. Attack / 252 Speed
Nature: Timid
Moves:
Discharge
Will-o-wisp
Protect
Shadow Ball

Problem with your Rotom is that you should attach Focus Sash rather than Leftovers. Rotom has low Defense and Sp. Defense.

Empoleon
Item: Leftovers
EVs: 28 HP / 252 Attack / 228 Speed

Changes in Bold.
 
like the staraptor changes, but rotom is meant for lasting a long time and powering up electirve/sweeping. FS alows only two moves if it works right.
 
For Rotom, you're thinking about the appliance forms, not the original form. You can't use any of the new Rotoms in the Battle Tower. Therefore, Rotom's defenses DO suck, and without Focus Sash, you might not even have ONE move.

I've paired up Electivire with my Zapdos many times and it works excellently. If you have access to a Zapdos, give it a try.

I just looked at my rotom's Def and it does suck. i think i'll change to zapdos. this team is for competitive battle, not the tower.
