critique my new RBY team

[kappa]

OK Ive updated my team quite a bit from the new info Ive gotten from research and user posts. Keep in mind this is only for battle with my friends so dont bash the evade techniques and mew pokemon, Cuz we agreed to allow it.

Mew
swift
swords dance
soft boiled
double team

(One friend uses an alakazam with double team so I needed to add a swift dancing mew.)

Gengar
hypnosis
dream eater
bodyslam
substitute

(A friend uses a substitue sleeper jynx. Which is a real pain If I dont kill it on the first hit. So a faster substitue sleeping gengar is my real only hope for killing the bas****.)

Jolteon
thunderbolt
double team
swift
thunderwave

(swift just there to help me along with annoying evaders.)

Starmie
Blizzard
Psychic
Recover
Minimize

Tauros
Blizzard
thunderbolt
earthquake
hyperbeam

(some people say I need to get rid of thunderbolt and replace with body slam, but hyperbeam has always been there for me and thunderbolt is there for the water jokers. Its just been more useful this way for me.)

Chancey
Softboiled
blizzard
thunderwave/sing
seismic toss

(My special sponge. Seismis toss is to take advantage of chanceys weak attack power. Also Im not sure whats better to use sing or thunderwave on my chancey.)

Psychic

Double team is good but Mew needs it's STAB move Psychic

(One friend uses an alakazam with double team so I needed to add a swift dancing mew.)

Gengar
hypnosis
dream eater
Nightshade
substitute

I assume that these are all lv 100, which doesn't really matter but a subbing sleeper with a 100 HP draining Nightshade will take a while to beat.

(A friend uses a substitue sleeper jynx. Which is a real pain If I dont kill it on the first hit. So a faster substitue sleeping gengar is my real only hope for killing the bas****.)

Jolteon
thunderbolt
double team
swift
thunderwave>Sand-Attack

Jolteon is good, but I generally use a Sand-attack with Double team to become near impossible to hit.

(swift just there to help me along with annoying evaders.)

Starmie
Blizzard
Psychic
Recover
Thunderbolt

A Starmie with out knowing T-Bolt is sad, with higher Sp.Atk points it will take down Pokemon with Electric weakness as though it was an electric type.

Tauros
Blizzard
thunderbolt>Rock Slide
earthquake
hyperbeam

I use Thunderbolt on Tauros only if I used up Rock Slide so thats up to you.

(some people say I need to get rid of thunderbolt and replace with body slam, but hyperbeam has always been there for me and thunderbolt is there for the water jokers. Its just been more useful this way for me.)

Chancey
Softboiled
blizzard
thunder wave
seismic toss

Chancey is good and Thunder Wave is better then sing because it's more reliable then sing.

(My special sponge. Seismis toss is to take advantage of chanceys weak attack power. Also Im not sure whats better to use sing or thunderwave on my chancey.)

Good team Kappa,just a few changes and it will be hard for your friends to beat, unless the go on pojo and find your team posted and build a counter team, which would be very sad(keeping it G rated).

[kappa]

OK lets see... I know mew lacks his stab move but I need a good counter against my friends alakazam. This is almost his entire purpose. Alakazam does toxic,recover,doubleteam, psychic. And psychic just wont do good dmg against him.

Gengar, I could use night shade but body slam is pretty powerful not to mention if my opponent switches out I can body slam and possibly paralyze.


jolteon , sand attack is an idea but I got off 4 double teams with jolteon and i swept my friend.

Starmie, I like the thunderbolt idea I can just go for the sweeper type like my tauros.

Tauros, what do I really need rock slide for?

Chancey, thunderwave is what I plan to use.

alright well thx for the advice hawk. My friends pretty much know my team since weve fought times before. They still havent figured a way to consistantly kill me so i think im safe for now. :)

[Hawkeye]

Tauros-Rock Slide is nutrual attack that can does major damage with out STAB. In reguards to the word neutral I mean with Tauros high attack power it will do more damage then Thunderbolt.

Gengar-Why attack and have a chance of paralyzing when you could drain 100HP when they switch out, but it's up to you.

Jolteon-Never mind then about the Sand-Attack.

Mew-Then once again never mind about Psychic

Starmie-K...

Chancey-K...

Thought I clear up the Rock Slide question, and still is a good team.

[kappa]

tauros cant learn rock slide

[Hawkeye]

Sorry, thinking of another pokemon, keep Thunderbolt.
Curse multi-tasking!

I used to use a Hypno, and I had the worst time trying to get hypnosis to work, it's so annoying, what's more is it never seems like you get enough health back with dream-eater even thouhg it's the most powerful psychic attack. Also you never know when your opponnent will awaken.
Maybe (if it's not too late) you should teach it Nightshade. Maybe Psychic too.

It seems like a lot of your pokemon know blizzard, and rightly so cos it an awesome attack, but maybe you should teach starmie hydro pump (if it's not too late) As it get's its stab bonus whereas it doesn't with blizzard.
