Hello. I just wondering if you can help me synchronize the new team that I'm plan to form. Other than Team Hoenn, I like to build a team that can help the team to make up each other strengths and weaknesses. As well as to help out with the conditions.

Smeargle @ Focus Sash
Nature: Timid
Ability: Own Tempo
Role: Setter and counter
Evs: 252 HP/4 Def/ 252 Speed
Ivs: 31/x/31/31/31/31
-Dark Void
-Sticky Web
-King's Shield
-Magic Coat
Note: Sticky Web will be Smergle's main hazard to slow down the opposing pokemon. Magic Coat can bounce back any other hazards as well as Whirlwind,and Roar. Not to mention Taunters. King's Shield will not only will protect it,but it will also lower pokemon's attack power. I could have use Spore over Dark Void. But Creeper and The Imposter from Serebii forums convinced me it won't work on those of the Grass-types, those who have an ability called "Overcoat" like Manibuzz,and those who have Safety Googles.


Blaziken @ Life Orb/Expert Belt
Nature: Adamant
Ability: Speed Boost
Evs: 252 Atk/ 4 SpD/ 252 Speed
Ivs: 31/31/31/31/31/31
Role: Fast Physical Sweeper
-Protect
-Flare Blitz
-High Jump Kick/Low Kick/Baton Pass
-Sword Dance
Note: This amazing fire fighter not only can outspeed anyone and take out foes. But it also have two egg moves such as Baton Pass and Low Kick just in case.


Excadrill @ Air Balloon
Nature: Adamant
Ability: Mold Breaker
Evs: 4 HP/ 252 Atk/252 Speed
Ivs: 31/31/31/x/31/31
Role: Offensive Rapid Spinner
-Sword Dance
-Poison Jab/Rock Slide
-Earthquake
-Rapid Spin
Note: With Poison Jab, not only it will take out bulky Fairy-types, but it will also have a chance of poisoning it. With the his high stat of the attack, and if Sowrd Dance boost his attack it least once, then his attack will easily crush anyone. Earthquake will be his main STAB, as it will take out those who have the ability, Leviate due to the ability of Mold Breaker.


Gardevoir @ Gardevoirite
Nature: Timid
Ability: Trace/ Pixilate
Ev: 252 SpAtk/ 4SpD/ 252 Speed
Ivs: 31/x/31/31/31/31
Role: Special Sweeper
-Moonblast/ Hyper Beam
-Thunderbolt/Focus Blast
-Psyshock
-Shadow Ball
Note: I've a Gardevoir that has 5 Max Ivs in my Pokemon Y version. Therefore, it didn't have the Egg move, Destiny Bond. As much as I like for Gardevoir to have the move Hyper Voice. But as far as breeding are concerned, it will be kind of like impossible to breed an 5 max Ivs pokemon in PKMN Black and White games. Even if I do have the Power Items, it will only give the offspring one higher stat. With the new breeding methods going on XY game, it will be a lot easier to do that. Therefore, Moonblast is next best thing that I can do for her. However, if Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire have move tutors, then I'll be more than happy to have her learn that move.


Milotic @ Leftovers
Nature: Bold
Ability: Marvel Scale
Evs: 248 HP/ 252 Def/ 8 SpA
Ivs: 31/x/31/31/31/31
Role: The Wall and the cripper
-Scald
-Recover
-Toxic
-Dragon Tail
Note: Milotic already have a high Sp.Def power. With the bulky pokemon like Milotic, not only she can take multiple hits, but it can also poison the bulkier foes like Slowbro,and many others. Scald as her STAB move, not only it will take out Fire,Ground,and Rock types, but it will also can give the foe the burn, especially with the steel and poison types too.


Chansey @ Eviolite/ Blissey @ Leftovers
Nature: Bold
Ability: Natural Cure
Evs: 252 HP/ 252 Def/ 4 Speed
Role: The Wall and the Healer
-Toxic/Thunder Wave
-Seismic Toss/Ice Beam
-Soft Boiled
-Aromatherapy/Heal Bell
Edit: Don't have it yet but I'm thinking about it.
Note: Chansey/Blissey happened to be an extremely bulky pokemon. With the defense like that, its hard to be beaten. Not only that she can heal herself, but with the moves like Heal Bell or Aromatherapy, it can heal the whole team. I've found it from Smogon Site, and the youtube video.

Additional Note: Celebi can be pretty much handy when it comes to healing, but. As soon as I receive Celebi from PKMN Bank, it couldn't learn the move, Giga Drain as soon as I got it. Like I said before, if Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire have Move Tutors, then hopefully that can help Celebi learn Giga Drain.


If you have any suggestion for the team, let me know because I need to find the synergy in order to work well.

I can try to help out a bit with this, but I'll probably miss some important detail somewhere. Never mind - I should hopefully be able to point something in the right direction.

Looks good to me. One issue is that you can't really trust smeargle to last any length of time, so it might be better to drop something and pick up stealth rocks as well. Magic coat probably won't be that useful, because as soon as the opponent learns you have it, they'll just blast smeargle into oblivion. Once they know you have it, you won't get any more chances to use it, so stealth rocks would probably be a better bet. If you want to magic coat something, just get a magic bouncer like espeon.

Blaziken @ Life Orb/Expert Belt
Nature: Adamant
Ability: Speed Boost
Evs: 252 Atk/ 4 SpD/ 252 Speed
Ivs: 31/31/31/31/31/31
Role: Fast Physical Sweeper
-Protect
-Flare Blitz
-High Jump Kick/Low Kick/Baton Pass
-Sword Dance
Note: This amazing fire fighter not only can outspeed anyone and take out foes. But it also have two egg moves such as Baton Pass and Low Kick just in case.

In case you didn't know, blaziken is banned by Smogon. I assume you're not interested in following Smogon rules? Anyway, I won't complain.

High jump kick is definitely preferable to low kick, but I'm not sure if you want baton pass or not. I guess sending a swords dance and some speed boosts to excadrill might be useful. But really, I think blaziken would use them better in most cases. I'd recommend life orb over expert belt, unless you want to bluff a choice item, not that I can see why blaziken would be choiced.

Excadrill @ Air Balloon
Nature: Adamant
Ability: Mold Breaker
Evs: 4 HP/ 252 Atk/252 Speed
Ivs: 31/31/31/x/31/31
Role: Offensive Rapid Spinner
-Sword Dance
-Poison Jab/Rock Slide
-Earthquake
-Rapid Spin
Note: With Poison Jab, not only it will take out bulky Fairy-types, but it will also have a chance of poisoning it. With the his high stat of the attack, and if Sword Dance boost his attack it least once, then his attack will easily crush anyone. Earthquake will be his main STAB, as it will take out those who have the ability, Leviate due to the ability of Mold Breaker.

I can see why you'd use poison jab, but really, iron head is just better. It gets STAB, and you can still kill fairies with it. Not being able to poison shouldn't matter much to excadrill, since immediate damage will work much better for him. Not sure if a life orb would be better than a balloon, but it really comes down to how cautious you are.

Do you really need swords dance here as well, though, since you already have blaziken as a set-up sweeper? I'd say replace it with rock slide and go scarfed. Scarf rapid spin may sound ridiculous, but it actually works nicely for guaranteeing you'll get rid of hazards. Hey, Smogon said it first, not me. But, yeah, I notice you don't have a scarfer, which is definitely a problem which needs fixing, so maybe excadrill could fill that slot?

Gardevoir @ Gardevoirite
Nature: Timid
Ability: Trace/ Pixilate
Ev: 252 SpAtk/ 4SpD/ 252 Speed
Ivs: 31/x/31/31/31/31

Therefore, Moonblast is next best thing that I can do for her. However, if Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire have move tutors, then I'll be more than happy to have her learn that move.

Not being able to get hyper voice is definitely a shame. You should still be able to work with moonblast, though. Don't use hyper beam, it's just awful. I'd go for thunderbolt over focus blast, since then you'll hit. Otherwise this looks okay.

Milotic @ Leftovers
Nature: Bold
Ability: Marvel Scale

Scald as her STAB move, not only it will take out Fire,Ground,and Rock types, but it will also can give the foe the burn, especially with the steel and poison types too.

Not to question your choices, but how good actually is milotic's physical defence? I'll just assume it's good enough to wall effectively, since that's how you're using her.

This set largely looks okay as a wall. Just one thing is you shouldn't ever rely on getting a burn with scald. Sure, it's great if you do, but try to always be prepared for it not to.

Chansey @ Eviolite/ Blissey @ Leftovers
Nature: Bold
Ability: Natural Cure
Evs: 252 HP/ 252 Def/ 4 Speed
Role: The Wall and the Healer
-Toxic/Thunder Wave
-Seismic Toss/Ice Beam
-Soft Boiled
-Aromatherapy/Heal Bell

Like I said before, if Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire have Move Tutors, then hopefully that can help Celebi learn Giga Drain.

Blissey would probably be better than chansey, because, while eviolite does give you better defences overall, it makes chansey vulnerable to knock off. That being said, I have no idea why you'd be staying in against something that could use knock off on you.

I'd recommend wish and protect over softboiled, since that'll allow you to heal other team members, while stalling more turns. Toxic over thunder wave, for dealing damage. Seismic toss over ice beam, because it's her only real attack, though you may want to swap out this spot for protect, to work with wish. I think heal bell's a tutor move from BW2, so it'll probably be aromatherapy for you, though I don't know how you learn that one. Probably an egg move.

If you have any suggestion for the team, let me know because I need to find the synergy in order to work well.

This largely seems okay to me, though you will definitely want a scarfer of some description. Also you may want a better phazing move than dragon tail, but if you can't get one, that's okay. Maybe swap milotic for a vaporeon, who has roar, but vaporeon's more of a mixed wall, and that may leave you open to physical attacks. You could try a defensive gyarados, if I can remember the EVs I used. She worked surprisingly well for me.

Other than that, I'm not really sure what to suggest. This largely looks like quite a solid team to me.
 
Just looking at you team and knowing its for Battle Spot, you will be torn through by M-Kanga. Drop Smeargle and pick up a Standard Ferrothorn Set. Max HP/Def +Defense nature, Rocks, GyroBall,PowerWhip, LeechSeed, @RockyHelmet. Chansey over Blissey due to better defenses. Drop Exca for Avalugg due to Spin and Physical Bulk, which your team needs direly.
 
Baton Pass is great for a quick pass to Gardevoir as well as Excadrill, her mediocre Speed is one of her biggest problems and Blaziken fixes that straight up.

Chansey is always better than Blissey except in Ubers. Don't use Blissey. It's very easy to see an incoming Knock off and swap out, in practice, so don't worry too much about that.

Ok. As for Blaziken, I'm not going to go to Smogon to do battle. Just to find the ideas as I heard that Smogon can be really helpful to strategize the team. The problem is that Iron Head happened to be a tutoring move that only Move Tutors can give him. However, if Omega Ruby,and Alpha Sapphire have Move Tutors as if they can help him learn Iron Head, that would be really great. Therefore, I have to have the move Poison Jab for now. I don't mind having Rock Slide over Sword Dance. I like Milotic. You're absolutely right about Gardevoir, Thunderbolt can be really helpful against the Water and flying types. Heal Bell is actually an egg move for Chansey as it can inherit from Skitty. Toxic may be the great way to cripple the bulkier foes while healing the team and herself of its conditions. Seismic Toss might be a main attack move which is good. But I'm also concerned about facing ghost types. I'm thinking that Ice Beam will do the trick for ghost types. Wish can be helpful but how can Chansey will learn the move, "Wish"? I've looked at bulbapedia,and I don't see anything on Chansey/Blissey's site that has a lot of moves.

Just looking at you team and knowing its for Battle Spot, you will be torn through by M-Kanga. Drop Smeargle and pick up a Standard Ferrothorn Set. Max HP/Def +Defense nature, Rocks, GyroBall,PowerWhip, LeechSeed, @RockyHelmet. Chansey over Blissey due to better defenses.

Does anyone agree with TerraTF of replacing Smeragle,and Exadrill for Feerrothorn,and Avalugg?

Fair enough. I wouldn't care about their rules either, except that I use their simulator, so I sort of have to. Good for game balance, though.

The problem is that Iron Head happened to be a tutoring move that only Move Tutors can give him. However, if Omega Ruby,and Alpha Sapphire have Move Tutors as if they can help him learn Iron Head, that would be really great. Therefore, I have to have the move Poison Jab for now. I don't mind having Rock Slide over Sword Dance.

Oh, okay. Poison jab's probably fair enough then. Although it might be worth baring in mind that fairies tend to be specially defensive, and therefore are (generally speaking) unlikely to try to wall excadrill. Not exactly sure what other options you have, though, so poison jab will be fine.

I like Milotic.

I can't argue with that.

You're absolutely right about Gardevoir, Thunderbolt can be really helpful against the Water and flying types.

More to the point, it actually hits things. Focus blast does not. But, yeah, this is probably your best set.

Heal Bell is actually an egg move for Chansey as it can inherit from Skitty.Toxic may be the great way to cripple the bulkier foes while healing the team and herself of its conditions.

Well, as long as you can get either heal bell or aromatherapy somehow, it doesn't really matter which you use. Ice beam would work for ghost types, but chansey can learn shadow ball, which would be a better option since it's supereffective. The problem is you won't have enough space on this set to run more than one attack, maybe none.

I'm not exactly sure how you get wish, but I've definitely used it on blissey before now. Hmmm...

Just looking at you team and knowing its for Battle Spot, you will be torn through by M-Kanga. Drop Smeargle and pick up a Standard Ferrothorn Set. Max HP/Def +Defense nature, Rocks, GyroBall,PowerWhip, LeechSeed, @RockyHelmet. Chansey over Blissey due to better defenses. Drop Exca for Avalugg due to Spin and Physical Bulk, which your team needs direly.

I agree with replacing smeargle with ferrothorn, but not with replacing excadrill with avalugg. You need a revenge killer, and that might as well be excadrill. Avalugg, as far as I can tell, is somewhat subpar on the whole, and I don't see why you'd use it when you already have milotic and now, ferrothorn both walling physical attacks. TerraTF may say its for mega kangaskhan, but nothing can wall that anyway, unless you can design something to be immune to everything it does. Which I thought I'd managed, until I learned it got crunch. Shame.
 
Wish is an event move. Don't use attacks other than Seismic Toss on Chansey. Even though Ghosts are immune to it, you're immune to their STAB and fat enough to heal off their Focus Blasts (and especially their HP Fightings). Just wait them out with Toxic. Putting an attack in Chandey is one of the worst ideas in the world, no offense.

Excadrill won't be revenge killing shit when its not in Sand. Avalugg gives you another Wall to help deal with M-Kanga.
 
Hmm...

Does anyone agree with Glory Blaze about Chansey with Eviolite is a better choice than Blissey for the team healer? I just caught Mankey (for Seismic Toss),Skitty (for Heal Bell),and a fairy-type (for Aromatherapy).

As for Avalugg, I'm not so sure about that. How can Avalugg can deal with M-Kanga? It happened to be an Ice-type which is weak against M-Kanga's fighting type move like Power-Up punch as it could be hit twice. If I have to use Avalugg, then what nature,ev spread, ivs,and moveset will it have? Didn't Ferrothorn already defense?

Avalugg is a very bulky spinner, up there with Tentacruel. The fact that Avalugg has so much bulk is good. STAB Avalanche is also a good addition for it. As for Chansey v. Blissey you never ever ever use Blissey. The only time you should use Blissey is in doubles. I would even consider replacing Chansey with a better Wish user. Vaporeon and Sylveon are very high up there in being better than Chansey. Only drop is in HP and its worth it for a much higher Defense.
 
I could use one of the Eevee's evolutions,and have to learn to use the move Wish. Of course learning the tutoring move Heal Bell from pokemon BW2 is no problem. But when it comes to breeding with the perfect nature,and having 5 Max Ivs in Black2 Version, its impossible to do so. Even with the Power Items, it couldn't give the offspring the 5 Max Ivs. I don't even have a 6 Max Ivs Ditto for the 5th Gen game. Of course that using Destiny Knot on XY game makes the breeding a lot easier to receive 5 Max Ivs.

Get a good natured Eevee with Wish and Heal Bell, no matter the gender, and swap it to XY. Egg Moves always pass down when breeding with Ditto no matter the Gender. Same with Natures. I also believe that HA's pass down more often when bred with Ditto.

When it comes to passing down the HA, it mostly the mother's duty in BW2. The few problems with the Eevee is that one from Castella City happened to be a male which means that it won't be able to pass down the HA to the offspring at all in PKMN Black 2. When it comes to pass down the Egg Moves,then its the father's duty to do so. But in XY, its doesn't really matter.

Which is why you transfer it to XY where both genders have a 60% chance of passing down an HA.

That I can pretty much do but. Don't it have to learn "Heal Bell" from PKMN Black 2 version first? That isn't an egg move as well as a tutoring move after all. I can't afford to make any mistakes when it comes to breeding a rare pokemon with a HA that happened to be a gift.

Heal Bell isn't really too good of a move tbh. If you're worried about something running into a T-Wave or Toxic or Burn it should be running a Lum Berry.
 
So you said that Heal Bell isn't too good much of the move. I don't know about that but it could be helpful for the team to get rid of the team conditions. Lum Berry is only temporary before one or more members get a condition again. If I really need an Eevee, which one of the final form will be? What nature,ev spread,and moveset of that pokemon for the team will be for the team healer? I know that Celebi and Atlaria will do well. Once Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire release, then I hope that either of the upcoming game will have the move tutors, then Atlaria can learn Heal Bell.

Depends on what you want Eevee to do. If you want one to stick around for a little and hit with some status' standard Vaporeon is your way to go. If you want to take something down while sending heals around your team Sylveon is the way to go.

The Vaporeon set I use is:

Vaporeon @ Leftovers
Bold
Water Absorb
252 HP / 4 SpA / 252 SpD
Scald
Ice Beam
Wish
Protect

I haven't really used a Sylveon before but someone who has will likely come with a set for you. I know that the Pixilate Hyper Voice set is the best, but I believe that Hyper Voice is a Tutor move in BW2. The Eeveelution you choose really depends on how you want to run your team.

Indeed. I've already found the fact that Hyper Voice is a Tutor Move for an eevee. Sylveon might be a great help for the team. But what's moveset,nature,ability,and ev spread that Sylveon must have? Could it the Evs,and nature be the same as your Vaporeon like 252 HP/ 252 Def/ 4 SpA?

It would be similar. I know that Moonblast, Psyshock, and Shadow Ball are big on Sylveon. I've also seen that Quick Attack is slowly rising up as being a useful move on a Pixilate Set. Sylveon is by far one of the best Eeveelutions since Vaporeon. It really just depends on how you want to utilize it.
