My team:

1. Forretress - rapid spin, toxic spike, spike, gyroball/stealth rock/toxic (role: rapid spin +support)
2. Volcarona - quiver dance, bug buzz, fire blast, roost (role: special sweeper)
3. mega mawile - iron head, play rough, sucker punch, substitute (role: attack based sweeper, dragon buster)
4. Ferrothorn - spikes, stealth rock, leech seed, protect (role: support 2)
5. Gourgeist/trevenant/spiritomb [I already have spiritomb with 6x perfect IV) (role: rapid spin blocker)
6. xxx - no idea here

Can anyone advise me what I should put in the last slot? I'm thinking of something that would be able to counter mega blaziken (does it have any counters?). Also I'm not entirely sure which of the mentioned pokemons I should use as a rapid spin blocker (I love their designs equally).

Since volcs has quiver dance I'd be more inclined to give it fiery dance for the accuracy (and the added spatk boost possibility)

no point having 2 sneaky pebbles users in my opinion but if you find it works having one as a sacrificial lamb, go for it.

I'm not adept enough to suggest any other changes sorry.

A strong and fast fire special attacker can rape this team. I would suggest a strong wall like jellicen.

then maybe I should drop one stealth rock and go with toxic instead. Thanks for the imput

Put TWave on Ferro over Spikes, you dont need two of those.

Get something to force switches to maximize your hazard effectiveness. Roar Vaporeon might be a good idea.

A fast Taunt user would be helpful as well now that Defog clears hazards for both sides.

err not ferro forretress

and you really need to do something about how raped your team gets by fire, you need one of those BALKY WAWTAS, and I wouldn't run forretress and ferrothorn simultaneously either

right, fire sweepers seems to be the biggest problem for my team, someone suggested jellicent other anon suggested Vaporeon. Maybe I will settle with one of them.

1. remove either Ferrothorn or Foretress
2. Add Jellicent, Vaporeon, Rotom Wash, Tentacruel–etc. There's a lot of options, I recommend Vaporeon because your team needs a phaser but any of the others could be fairly viable (although tentacruel would be sort of redundant, and you don't need Jellicent).
3. Add something with scarf, espeed etc. I recommend a dragon. Fairy type is a thing now but dragon is still an insanely powerful type and right now your team is slow without a boost.

>>15064709
Absolutely.

Salamence/Hydreigon/Cumdragon

Any of these will be good for the 6th position?

Salamence and Hydreigon yes. Both can run mixed sets too and Hydreigon is one of those pokemon that borders on uncounterable because of his movepool. Cumdragon is not offensive at all.

Swords dance on what I assume is 252/252 adamant m-mawile lets it OHKO garchomp with sucker punch. The same opening that would let you throw up a sub would let you swords dance.
