[The Storm]

no to the Breloom. You only gave it one Phys attack, give it more

 

[Strype McClaine]

Ymmn, yea, breloom needs alot more physical.
With out poison heal, it's only hope is a moderately good bander...
So say, choice band
Sead bomb
Super Power
Stone edge
Spore -or- Mach Punch.

Also fortress is a wall, not an attacker.
And thus, must be treated as such.
Earthquake/Gyroball for attacking
2 moves for support.

 

[Status12]

^Breloom doesn't learn superpower, and it's not a TM. What about Focus Blast?

 

[King of Pop]

It can be tutotered in platinum

 

[Fox]

Focus Blast is a special move...

I mean no offense, Status, but you have a lot to learn about competative battling before I can rate this team. Technically, nothing about it is good except resistances.
Look through the smogon, mariland, and serebi forums (and some of the threads here actually) for some hints.
And I'm sure you don't know about EV training. I'll PM you the guide I wrote.

 

[Splash_King]

If I were you, I'd get rid of Swords Dance for an attack, and give it a Choice Band.

And I think you're mad.

SD Scizor @ Orb is a scary proposition, one of my favorites, to be honest. Be it tearing up the battle tower or ruining people in real competitive battlers, SD Scizor may very well be the best sweeper in OU. ... Or so I saw 6 weeks before I left.

My new team. Suggestions and criticism appreciated. Pokemon in no specific order.

1. Shiny Azumarill.

=D I have a Shiny Azumarill as well. You're the second person I've known to also have one (that caught/bred it theirself), hah.

 

[The Storm]

Good to see you back CK. I run SD Scizor too, it really is an aweome Sweeper for OU.

[completely pointless post/]

 

[Splash_King]

Ah, 'sup Storm? Havn't seen you in awhile.

I've seen more pointless posts; you're agreeing with me without stating the blatantly retarded, stereotypical 2 word "I agree" post.

... That, and Wiichat is dying. Badly. Needz moar posting.

SD ORB SCIZOR FOR TOP TIER! ... Wait, wrong game.

 

[Fox]

Lol, It's not dead yet. I would personally say we're at a low point, but we've still got a shitstorm of activity going on.

 

[RockerJ]

Lol, It's not dead yet. I would personally say we're at a low point, but we've still got a shitstorm of activity going on.

Agree. We had a mid point about a week ago (at where I hang out around Wiichat). But it went down fast.

But I see the Choice Band Scizor everywhere on Shoddy Battle.

 

[Splash_King]

Because CB Scizor is a great poke. Doesn't mean it can replace SD Orb Scizor's job of sweeping though; CB Scizor is a beat stick, not a stat-up sweeper.

 

[Fox]

I just realized I don't have an SD Scizor...
Will soon though, along with a BETTER specsmence (mine has shite IVs).
Those two are a good compliment to eachother.

[Strype McClaine]

Exellent! now I have something to talk about. Lets hit the rundown shall we?

I've been working on my Platinum In-game team alot, and now it looks something like this:
Empoleon
-Swords Dance
-Waterfall
-Drill Peck
-Avalanche

Empoleon, great choice of moves, If possible I would heart scale away waterfall for Aqua Jet. Drill Peck may be a bit unnecessary, earthquake is better, return for the water/normal combo, but during the game, a great choice.

Crobat
-Cross Poison
-Fly
-Aerial Ace
-U-Turn

Ah Crobat. Crobat. In the game, Aerial Ace is better than advertised for sake of the spammy evasion type moves, other than that, why not hypnosis to assist in capturing of d00ds. I'm sure fly is there only because you need a flyer.

Torterra
-Swords Dance
-Seed Bomb
-Stealth Rock
-Earthquake

Stealth Rocking Torterra, is not that good in game, at all. I would recommend Curse as an option (instead of the dance), leach seed (MAYBE synthesis, but only if curseing), wood hammer, and maybe even stone edge. However any choice of moves, is rather decent.

Glaceon
-Ice Beam
-Water Pulse
-Hidden Power
-Sand Attack

And we all must ask "Hidden Power what?" Shadow Ball, Wish, Fake Tears.... Seriously, This is the biggest waste of space on your team. It needs to be put to better use.

Infernape
-Swords Dance
-Overheat
-Fire Punch
-Brick Break

Monkey, monkey monkey..... As soon as you can, close combat, maybe stone edge or Uturn, consider the upgrade to flare blitz

Chatot
-Mimic
-Hidden Power
-Chatter
-Hyper Voice

Another thing just sitting there, doing NOTHING. Chatter and Hyper Voice... Chatter can cause confusion (based on what the sound is) but hyper voice is better. No confuse hacks, but just better. Now then, Mimic and hidden power.... Mimic itself, does nothing. How about heatwave? Yes. it can learn it! Now then Hidden Power what? if its a good one, keep it. If not Maybe the combo of Encore/Nasty Plot.
Perhaps ominous wind?
Its move pool is shallow as the kiddy pool in the middle of December, but there is no reason to have two moves that do the exact same thing.
