I just added volcarona yesterday. I wasn't really sold on the lum berry pick anyways. Florges is a beast and sitrus berry works great with her.

Why would you not use at least 4 sweepers. WoW isn't needed. Florges is too stronk. Removing Lum Berry.

Disclaimer: I am a scrub. I don't use legendaries or Pokemon that I really don't like the looks of. I win about 40% of the time and if improving that means I have to start using Smogon: The Team then i don't want to be right.

Yeah, my team has its share of gimmicks, but all these pokemon are some of my favorites which just happen to be somewhat viable.

Superpower is an Egg move. Or you could try Sashing it and running a Swords Dance set.

You will desperately want some form of hazard control. If there's a Pokemon with Rapid Spin or Defog that you like almost as much as Malamar, make the switch. Using Volcarona and Dragonite kinda sorta demands it.

Yeah, that seems reasonable. I'm thinking of replacing Malamar with a Donphan or Excadrill in that case. Excadrill is almost certainly a better choice but Donphan's one of my favorites, gah. I could definitely use that steel typing, though, what with my current team's awful weakness to fairies.

Thanks for the advice!

You should probably get something to remove hazards. Pinsir and Volcarona are going to be hit really hard from pebbles.

I do like Empoleon, but Y is my first Pokemon game since Gen III, so getting Empoleon with Defog would be a hassle for me. So my choices are rather limited. Braviary and Mandibuzz are kinda cool I guess. Archeops is cool too but god damn do I not want to deal with its awful ability and flying animation.

Mandibuzz is definitely one of the most defensively-oriented Defoggers available to you, then. Crobat might be interesting to help deal with Fairies.

I would bring up Mega Scizor, but you already have Mega Venusaur on your squad. I've used both more extensively than any other Megas, and I'm not sure if anything could really take Venubro's place if you decided to dedicate a Mega slot to Roboster type GG.

>Gengar
Sash really isn't the best item for something that isn't going to be setting up boosts or hazards. Try Life Orb or Expert Belt for a fully offensive set, or else another round of Leftovers for the trollish SubDisable set.
Your team is in dire need of an answer to Bisharp, and would appreciate Hazard control in general. Mandibuzz might be a good alternative for Shuckle, if you're willing to use it. Krookodile might also be a good choice to take care of the Electric-types that could otherwise run wild through your team. Seriously, though, you really need something for the Cuisinart, because right now it puts your entire team in checkmate once Rocks are down.
On a scale of 1 to 10, how much do you like Scyther?

It's situational, sure. But Malamar is hands down the best Baton Pass chain destroyer. Use TT on the turn they Baton Pass out and their chain is destroyed, completely reversing those all important buffs that made the Pokémon they selected viable.

Sylveon needs Heal Bell and Hyper Voice to be Move Tutor moves in ORAS, and then it will be incredible.
