This is a team I have begun to build for Pokemon Emerald. A while back, I posted up a draft of this team, and asked for movesets. I now need help again, with deciding the final arrangement. I have since changed the team to include a Milotic, since I recently was able to find Feebas. Please help me.


Salamence w/ ?????
-Dragon Claw
-Flamethrower
-?????
-?????

Gyarados w/ ?????
-Hyper Beam
-Hydro Pump
-?????
-?????

Milotic w/ Leftovers
-Water Pulse (for confusion)
-Recover
-Attract
-Hydro Pump (for power)

Altaria w/ ?????

-Attract
-Ice Beam

Flygon w/ Soft Sand
-Earthquake

Well, thats the help I can offer you mate. Hope It helps. I did it based off of my pokemon. THough I think you have to many dragons. Too much Ice weakness. Maybe slide in a Moltres...or something in place of Either Dragonite or Altaria....

Well, it is meant to be a dragon team. For my weaknesses to Ice and Dragon moves, I have Milotic, who I included because I've never had one and because it bears many similarities to Gyarados, who is pretty much, a dragon. Although, my brother suggests using a Charizard in place of something. What do you think to that?

P.S. Good movesets. But, I don't too much understand the choice of Thunder Wave on Gyarados.

P.P.S. I won't use a Moltres, because I'm building this team from scratch. I have all of these 6 Pokemon ready and waiting as lvl 5 pokemon, just hatched from eggs. I plan on re-starting Emerald once my brother's finished on it, and then using this team.

Charizard is ok, but not great. Swablu if very hard to raise, just for the heads up. CHarizard is better than it IMO though. Thunder Wave on Gyrados is a good Idea, because it gives him time to Dragon Dance up, then Eliminate most of your opponent's team. Well, it worked against me the first time I fought Lance. He Thunder Waved my pokemon, I couldn't get a hit out, and he Dragon Danced 3 times, and eliminated me. Kind of Sucked...lol.

How about a Level 5 Tailow. Swellow learns Endeavor, which can help nuetralize any pokemon. Or maybe A Treeko. I think its evolved forms can mate with Dragons. SO its kind of a Dragon...lol

I'd go with Charizard instead of Milotic...
I think Charizard is better, either that or i've got a grudge against Milotic...
I think it's both. (I've wasted 5 feebas).

well, to point something out:

Salamnce has a greater attack over his special attack, so having 3 special attacks is not very smart.

Gyrados is the same way. Having 2 special attacks isn't a good idea.

I also notice that you like to be almost completely offensive, with almost no support moves. A pokemon without support moves is asking for a beating.


And Swampert would be a good idea over Altaria also. IMO.

Salamence can be a deadly special sweeper with just a tad lower accuracy:Hydro pump/Crunch/Dragon Claw/Flamethrower, but a DD physical sweeper salamence with Rock Slide/DD/Earthquake/Aerial Ace? works fine as well.

Mixed sweepers are bad if they need speed to begin with(evs)

Guys. I've decided that I'd like all of these pokemon to be supportive of each other somehow, with perhaps 2 offensive attacks each, and 2 support moves each. I'd rather not have a team full of Offensive attacks, like I have done every single time in the past. I'll update the first post.
