Need help for my team - RPS_MCH72 - Jan 13, 2015
Hi
I'm new to competitive battling, this is actually my first attempt at building a team. Obviously I know there's gonna be a lot of problem with the team and I hope someone can help me make it better
I don't really know what I'm trying to do with this team or what my strategy is, I just got a shiny Sableye which is my favorite pokemon and wanted to make a team base around Mega Sableye. Just fyi it doesn't have recover and has prankster when not mega evolved. If recover is absolutely needed I have a non shiny one I could put in but I just put this one in for now because I want to make it work lol.
Also I don't really understand how to give pokemon a desired HP so I try to avoid them :P.
So with that being said, here is the team :

Your team is solid, however, it has a lot of weaknesses. Generally, it is able to switch in and out without any trouble but you need to watch out for those Dark and Ice types since there isn't really much on your team that can tank these attacks. Overall, nice team and I hope you consider my suggestions

I'd put Recover and Calm mind on the Sableye instead of Shadow Ball and Power Gem. And maybe switch Confuse Ray for Will-W-Wisp. But that's more personal preference rather than advice.

Thanks, I'll try that out. I know I need the fire type move, just got in trouble for not having one xD

Thanks, I usually run will-o too but I figured since I have Foul Play and since i'm pretty bulky that maybe confuse might be better. I guess I'll just switch the sableye completely lol
