Ok... glad I found these boards. Looking for some help with my team. Pretty sure I have a good setup and need a little help with a couple of my pokemon. I have read about EVs and all, but not sure I want to put in the extra effort/time of using them. I am a little leary of breeding moves on (I have big old book for reference on all movesets) but I am open to the idea of it as well as rebreeding for better natures and such. Withour further ado here I go:
Swampert
Adamant nature
Item: not sure what to use really (using amulet coin atm just to earn money going through the E4 over and over)
Hammer Arm
Earthquake - STAB
Avalanche
Waterfall - STAB
Aggron (rockhead)
Docile nature (I know I can improve that one, was just ported in from my sapphire)
Item: Wide Lens (I like the help with Iron Tail and Stone Edge)
Double-Edge
Brick Break
Iron Tail - STAB
Stone Edge - STAB
Salamance
Mild nature (actually worked out really well Atk and Sp Atk are only a couple points off from each other)
Item: Blackglasses (once again sorta just thrown in there to help with an attack)
Dragon Claw - STAB
Flamethrower
Crunch
Fly (going to change to Aerial Ace soon) - STAB
Gardevoir
Naughty nature (I know I need to redo this one, torn between modest and mild/rash just to improve defense a little)
Item: Rose Incense (once again sorta just thrown in there to help with an attack)
Thunderbolt
Psychic - STAB
Hypnosis (just to help give breathing room if I need it)
Magical Leaf
Abamasnow (I need a LOT of help with this one, figuring out a good moveset is really messing me up, going for Sp Atk btw)
Docile nature (once again, need to rebreed this one to get something good)
Item: no idea what to use, though was leaning towards Leftovers
Toxic
Ice Beam - STAB
Energy Ball - STAB
Giga Drain (didn't know what to stick in here, and he just always seemed to need the extra boost of hp drain)
Last spot I am torn between Ampharos and Gallade (or replacing Gardevoir with Gallade)
Ampharos
Timid nature
Item: no idea
Power Gem
Thunderbolt - STAB
Signal Beam
???
Gallade
Impish nature (I wanted the little extra boost to defense)
Item: no idea
Night Slash
Leaf Blade
Psycho Cut - STAB
Close Combat or Brick Break - STAB
I would love to hear what you guys have to say on all this. I am pretty new at designing a team. I have several others that I wouldn't mind using, but just the thought of getting all these other guys up to a decent level is a bit daunting in and of itself.
