    I just realized that your team has no real gyrados counter, i would suggest replacing either grassknot, or flamethrower for thunderbolt, even after dd from gyra you should be faster aslong as its a bulky dos. Also if your still afraid of gyrados incase azelf were to die, stonedge on swampert isnt a bad choice either.

    That is kind of true. That is actually why I lost most of my battles, from Gyarados. I had no Gyarados counter.

    Wouldnt hurt to make weavile Choice Banded by the way, it does serious damage. And make him your starter, weavile okos gengar, azelf, alakazam etc with pursuit even if they stay in with choice band, even starmie has a 70% of dying if it stays in on a pursuit, and thats only if its a bulky starmie, most arent. That was you have more room to sweep, and if your going choice banded an okay opion is ice shard, preferably i like ice punch, but ice shard okos all dragons and does about 75% to aerodactly, who is faster then you, and if aero comes in on SR its a solid oko.

    Yes, I have alot of advice, that swampert is Crap, dont listen to hooh about perts. Phsyical pert is EASILY walled and thats why special is prefered. Also, dont max his defense, he can either run half sp def and def, or alot of def and some sp attack/spdef. Swampert, forteress blissey combo is really good, I kinda made it.



    You're not running so hot in the special department. Once bliss dies Scarfgengar litterally analy rapes that team meatspin style. So, invest some more evs in sp def on pert. OR gogogogogogo calm mind bliss.


    Thats all I can think of at the momment. Any questions?

    The only time you use "he/s" , you use it wrong. >_> And not only that, its effective. And his team is greatly smiliar to mine. but IMO, mines are better.

    Uh... Thanks. I already have a Relaxed Swampert, so I think I'll just go ahead and run the Mixpert set. (Sorry Hooh =P)


    Uhh... Can you give me numbers on Swampert's EV spreads...? I'm not good at making up EV spreads. (I'm still kind of a newbie in that area)

    well, i run max hp, and like 240 def or something, but its kinda too much def imo, i should fix it, just not enough time. but, yeah, max hp and however much def you feel you need. then throw the rest in sp def/sp attack.... or go the lazy way and check smogon or this site: http://www.libelldra.com/competitive/analyses/

    kinda like smogon, but has more info on the sets.
