I Know This Is Late But I Need A Suggestion (Pokemon Pearl)

Uhhh Hey Guys As I Said In The SubjectI Know This Is Kinda Late ButI NeedSome Suggestions On My Team:

Infernape - Blast Burn, Flame Wheel, Close Combat, Flare Blitz (saving up BP for earthquake)

Sceptile - Frenzy Plant, Quick Attack, Slam, Leaf Blade

Lucario - Dark Pulse, Dragon Pulse, Aura Sphere, Close Combat

Garchomp - Dragon Claw, Dragon Rush, Fire Fang, Dig

Staraptor - Endeavor, Close Combat, Aerial Ace, Fly

Pikachu - Thunder, Volt Tackle, Iron Tail, Discharge

If you don't feel bad about wasting a tm, go ahead and teach garchomp earthquake.

First things first. No pokemon need two damaging moves of the same type. So replace infernape's blast burn and flame wheel, sceptile's frenzy plant, lucario's close combat, gachomp's dragonclaw or dragon rush, staraptor's fly, and picachu's thunder and discharge.These multiple moves of the same type overlaps, and you will only using the best of them anyway.

Infernape could use Grass Knot and Earthquake. If you can are willing to breed a new one, use flamethrower/nasty plot/grass knot/close combat, with a 64 Atk / 252 SpA / 192 Spe ev spread. believe me, after a nasty plot few things are stopping this.

Sceptile has to change most of his moves. they all overlap and doesn't add coverage. A Sword dance/Leaf blade/Earthquake/rock slide would be better.

Lucario could use Shadow Ball replacing close combat. Almost all the other moves are special anyway, and that way you spare Atk EVs.

Garchomp, that is easy. Replace dig with earthquake, Dragon claw with outrage, and dragon rush with stone edge. And give it a Yache berry.

Staraptor: If you really want a endeavor abuser, replace wing attack with quick attack, and fly with substitute. Substitute until you only have 1 hp, endeavor as they break your sub, then Quick attack. But a Substitute/Brave Bird/Close Combat/Roost is VERY better.

Picachu: erm.. This thing is as suboptimal as it can get, and you should replace it.

But if you want an advice, putting random pokemons together doesn't make a good team. Far from it.

It's fine to beat the game with, competitively wise, not so much.siLVURcross

Also, this.

Everything I've written before is for competitive-wise teams.

Metagross Or Tyranitar?

Thing is, your team, doesn't have a dedicated sweeper, doesn't have a defensive core, doesn't have a theme, nor anything. As long as I can see, is only a bunch of pokemons put together, so it doesn't make THAT difference.

Between tyranitar and Gross, a metagross would further your team's fire weakness, without solving the Earth problem. tyranitar is another big poke and doesn't add anything. A bulky water would be better.

Maybe a Earthquake/Ice beam/protect/stealth rock @leftovers Swampert with 252 HP / 4 Atk / 252 Def EVs put at leader position, as it's only weakness [grass] is covered by a lot of thing in your tem already. Earthquake for stab, Ice beam for the OHKO on salamence, protect for those pesky leaders that have Explosion [coughazelfcoughheatrancough] and stealth rock because lucario really love having it in play.

If you use the swampert, Think about changing lucario to a Swords dance/close combat/extremespeed/ice punch @Life orb with 252 Atk / 4 Def / 252 Spe EV spread.

edited for speling, EV correction, and to add the lucario set.

Check Smogon.
Best move sets and EV spreads.

The problem with smogon is that is based in a metagame that relies heavily in things like Stall, Rotom-A, Hidden Power and wish blisseys, that are, if not nonexistent, very rare in wi-fi battles. And is difficult for someone that doesn't know how to differentiate what can be used from what can't to use that stupid amount of information.
