lern2dw 
put drought on ninetales
aside from that:
1) where is charizard, charizard rapes everything
2) leafeon is pretty bad from my experience... consider switching it out for a faster sweeper which benefits more from sun
3) growth now gives +2 SpA, +2 Atk in sun. Make sure you have that on Venusaur.

You can get lucky and have some Japanese guy trade you one online. Dream World is out in a few days anyways, so you can wait until then as well.
By one, I mean Drought Ninetales.
Also, you have only one fragile Sunny Day caster that doesn't even have that rock that extends its duration. So any sun you have won't last your entire game. Also, four fire types and two grass types? You're asking to get earthquaked to death, and then out fired by any opposing fire type moves, who also get the fire attack boost.
Most commonly, Heatran. Comes in on a fire move, gets boosted and sweeps your entire team. o:
Is there a reason half your team can heal? Also Leafeon two heal moves?
And stealth rocks AND sunny day on infernape?
Also, Nasty Plot + Choice Specs, joy.

I will admit I am new to this so my choices are probably not so good. ^^
I'll put Drought on Ninetails once DW comes out.
Infernape is my lead, hence Stealth Rock + Sunny Day but I might switch that out for Arcanine as he's less fragile and have Sunny Day on both of them.
I would remove Morning Sun and put in Sunny Day in that case.
Leafeon would be using Wish as a switchout move, so it could heal any sweeper I decided to put in that was appropriate. At least, I think thats how it works :S
Earthquake is a problem, and I don't really know how to deal with it >.< I figured most users of EQ could be hit by my STAB'd Venusaur solarbeam but.. Yeah I'm not sure.
|
if you put protect in place of synthesis you can use wish + protect to heal your self as you would with sythesis plus protect is a very versatile move allowing you to scout out choiced pokemons moves etc
latios is without a doubt your biggest weakness, nothing on your team can eat the draco meteor, and you cant switch houndoom in to pursuit trap it as he is still OHKO'd by a -2 draco meteor with stealth rocks up
another problem with your team is that you have nothing to stop tyranitar from repeatedly switching in to stop your sun.

Drought Ninetails ofc.
Slow base speed doesn't matter when it's doubled yo. Chlorophyll all the way, I <3 that ability.
And hehe Specs Nasty Plot

Every single Gliscor has that set. Thankfully I have two Steel types to prevent it from poisoning my team.
But oh wait, every time I see Gliscor, it has Shadow Tag Chandelure as a teammate. My team=ruined ;_;

Shameless plug time.

The site itself is great, but the Chatango community there is better. It's really small, but very tight-knit. Stop by sometime if you want to chat.

Quick question: I'm trying to find a better Pok�mon for having HM moves. I'm only using 3 Pok�mon but have 3 others for fly, surf, etc. My party is full and I'm trying to be able to have those abilities available when I need them.
HMs aren't as big a deal as they were in previous generations. Strength is reserved mainly for creating shortcuts and grabbing an item or two. Waterfall is for grabbing a few items, Dive is only used in one place, etc. The only HMs that should see constant use are Surf and Fly.
In any case, Watchog and Swanna learn all 6 HMs between them, so that can free up your party for one more battler.

Oh great, thanks. I'll have to go catch them.

Guys, on the official Pokemon website there is an event where you play some game and then when the Global Link thing gets launched later this spring, you get a free Eevee evolution with the DW ability.

If you're in the later part of the game, you can find Tropius (Route 14) and Bibarel (Village Bridge). Each can learn 4 TM's (you'll have some overlap). I believe Strength and Cut, can be learned by both.

I wish I knew how many stages there are. I've gotten to the fifth and lost a few times. I want my Espeon
Oh and apparently all the DW eeveelutions are only male. No female Espeon

Already got me an Umbreon.
I added Volcarona to my Sunny Day team, as well as Lilligant. Beast.

Weather teams dont really make sense for in-game competition as its bring 6 pick 3 battles ;o
they are going to see your all fire team and immediately know that your leading with ninetales and pick accordingly to counter you. Sandstorm teams gettin raped too since everyone just leads with a fighting type to shit on T-Tar. all the people that have a ton of wins run very mixed teams with really adaptable movesets. To give an example
saw an eelectross on a guy with 2k wins:
@ chesto berry
coil
zap cannon
rest
dragon tail
and you wont see rain teams really until drizzle politoed is available to all
right now im running
togekiss @ life orb
machamp @ choice scarf
cloyster @ focus
hydreigon (want to replace him)
ferrothorn (want to replace him, walls are fucking horrible in this format)
ninjask (want to replace him, baton pass doesn't work well in this format)

When I played... there were four stages >_>
It is unfortunate about the male-only thing though...
