...Two words... LEECH SEED!? Take it out for Wood Hammer. MUCH better, even if it hits recoil.

Also, I suggest putting a Deoxys Attack in there. Get it over Wi-fi. Make it know Psycho Boost, Psychic, Recover, and Thunder (to use against Water foes. They might use Rain Dance and Thunder is a sure-hit in rain) Make it level 100.

Take out Garchomp's Sword Dance for Dragon Pulse. Also, level it to 100.

Get a Giratina and put it in there. Level 100, with Shadow Force, Dragon Claw, Earthquake, and Dragon Pulse.

Othar than that, pretty good team!

Funny, i always wanted leech seed out, thanks for the suggested move!
Deoxys? Wouldnt it be UBER hard to get someone to trade for him? like i dont think i have any shiny's to trade or any rare pokemon to trade.. . so he will be hard to get. with that note, IN-CASE i dont get any luck getting him, any other pokemon i should put?
& Giratina, hm.. he is a tank lol, alright ill get working on him x) Thanks Alot !

& i think im gonna keep my swords dance, it works really well with my Garchomp.

I noticed that, i cannont give my Toterra wood hammer, because its not a TM, and he's alrdy Lvl.100, so he cant learn it.. so what do i do about that !?

& again with the Deoyxs he's gonna be pretty hard to trade for, so do you have any other pokemon to suggest for my team?

Torterra can learn Wood Hammer through the move tutor in pastoria city,just gave him a heart scale and he would be able to learn it.

no... Just no... You're suggesting Ubers with NU pokemon (doesn't work 90% of the time), and giving garchomp a special move (hello? physical sweeper there) Leech seed is also a very useful move, though I wouldn't use torterra. This team needs work (no frenzy plant, blast burn or hydro cannon for one), but you're just giving him advice to make it worse. Unless of course this is for in-game. In-game anything works and no one needs advice. Competitively, please just trash it and start from scratch, the level means nothing anyway competitively.

Yes Yes, im taking out the frenzy plant, blast burn, etc. but i dont really know what moves to replace them with...

I EV trained my Garchomps Sp.Att, sohe's fine with Flamethrower. I Dont plan on going with the UB's, to muuch work, and obviously i find their cheap.

My team is for playet battling & trading and what not, NOT in-game.

So, what should i do now? Start over? which would SUCK!

Or make a couple changes, and if so, change what exactly? and im still looking for those two pokemon to go with my team.

Garchomp is still uber, so you have to be doing uber battles if you're going to use him. Also, Garchomp's Special Attack is poor, training one in Special Attack is just awful. >__>

I'd just start from scratch. You can still use the 3 starters (good luck getting anything out of a Torterra that isn't on a Trick Room team though), but you'll need to train a new set up, and get better movesets (just go to serebii or psypokes can think up your own, you'll know how to use it better than a smogon moveset, and you have some individuality with your team).

Hmmm... this needs quite a bit of work. First, a word to the wise: NEVER, EVER use Hydro Cannon, Frenzy Plant or Blast Burn on a starter. They may be powerful, but the drawback of being immobile for a turn makes them practically unusable. Hydro Pump, Leaf Storm and Fire Blast are almost as powerful, and are a much better choice of both move and STAB. The same goes for Hyper Beam and Giga Impact: NEVER use them. :) Well, you can start out using your Infernape as a lead. Close Combat and Flamethrower are O.K., but you should probably add Stealth Rock (great entry hazard) and Fake Out (I think it's an egg move) to take out focus sash leads. You could also go for a Special Mixnape (Naive nature, Life Orb and 64 Atk, 252 SpA, 192 Spe), which would involve using Close Combat, Fire Blast/Flamethrower, Grass Knot and Hidden Power Ice. Grass Knot takes out the bulky waters (aka Swampert/Suicune, though watch out for the latter) that give you trouble, and HP Ice hits Gliscor and Salamence & the other dragons SE. Next, we work on Empoleon. I'd recommend an Agility/ SubPetaya set, which involves the use of Substitute to activate Petaya Berry (boosts SpA 1 stage when HP drops to below 25%). It makes a great late-game special sweeper. The set would look like this: Empoleon, Modest @ Petaya Berry Agility Substitute Ice Beam Surf/Hydro Pump You can go two routes with Torterra (with the moves you have) SubSeed or Tank. They are both defensive spreads, but tank is the more offensive of the two. Tank Impish, Leftovers 212 HP / 252 Def / 44 Spe Wood Hammer Earthquake Leech Seed Protect (also can use Stealth Rock) SubSeed Impish, Leftovers 252 HP / 20 Def / 236 Spe Substitute ~Leech Seed ~Earthquake Wood Hammer (Stone Edge can be used for flyers, or Toxic for stall)
