No he usually leads with his volt switch megadog.
Which has even hp ice so garchomp is not a perfect idea for a switch in.

His team seems to be physical focus (unless he run special T-tar?).

So physically tanky pokemon like Mega-Aggron, Avalugg, Rhyperior? Slowbro is also a good choice (Own Tempo will make Swagger Klefki sad).

Well he sounds like an asshole. Using that team isn't fun for me or others and it's certainly not difficult for any newbie to pull in wins with that.

Lol he actually is very VERY annoying.
Once i managed to win against him with an assaul vest gardevoir which traced manectric ability and nullified his volt switch gaining spatk and proceeding to wreck everithing in her way.
It's just a very annoying team.

Does he switch Megadog in often? Bisharp would enjoy a free +1 from intimidate. An even unboosted sucker will OHKO Megadog.
After +1 Iron Head will OHKO T-tar.

He won't enjoy Heracross though. And smogonbird will be a prediction match (Sucker Punch will fail on Brave Bird, but if you choose knock off his bird will die)

Leading with garchomp is not an option.
-1 atk earthquake vs. mmanectric is 58%-71%.
Switching in is also bad cause he can predict the switch.

So everyone, here is the prototype of my future team.

Rotom-w
Scarfchomp
Wisp Sableye (/w gravity?)
Megazard-Y
Bisharp
and maybe t-tar for safe switching on talonflame (which is a bulk up leftovers one btw)

Depend on when you pull out Megazard, it might cause a problem for Rotom and Bisharp (Weaker water move and more power for fire move).

Having T-tar to override the weather is a good idea though.

A very weird one is smogonbird 252 atk 128 hp and the rest on speed.

I know this so well cause i invented that spread so adamant talonflame's bravebird can outspeed jolly megakanga's suckerpunch.

you son of a bitch anons... pokegen is a tool just like showdown or pokecheck, whatever. You can still use pokegen and have legit pokemon, just make the parents have the HP IV's and breed for a little while.

I use pokegen to make parents, and then erase them. I know it's a game but I kind of feel sad breeding pokemon and throwing away the rest, where do they go? i guess since in x/y there's that garden where pokemon escape to, that makes sense.

All i did for mine was breed a 5 iv electrike without a destiny knot and checked the hidden powers. I got a little lucky and got 2 in once batch and one had 31 speed+spA.

You could also do the extremely autistic way of getting mons with 30 ivs and hoping for the best but I haven't reached that level yet.

He's not that good of a player, i basically taught him everithing, starting from iv breeding, to battle strategy and horde evsing.

I'm basically fighting against myself in another mind.
