RE: In-game Team Rates
your team has a big weaknes to rock and ground type for ex rhyperior or tyranitar with stone edge and eq can OHKO all of your pokemon
edit so get a water, grass, fight type like poliwath(water and fighting) and have Raikou off the team. you don't need two electric pokemon same with lugia. use one of the starter oak give you squirtle or bulbasaur is the best 4 ur team or u can use the starter steven give u treecko and mudkip is the best 4 ur team.

^Change Metal Claw for Brick Break. It still gains coverage over Ice+Rock, with the addition of Steel and Dark.

RE: In-game Team Rates
@BrokenIce, Weavile with Avalanche is a bad idea. Weavile is meant for speed, and its frail. Avalanche is a - priority move. Go with Ice Punch. Don't teach Gengar physical moves like Sucker Punch and Brick Break, it has a low attack stat. Flareon is by far the worst Eeveelution. It has a high attack stat and low Special Attack and its movepool is special based. Almost any fire type is better.

RE: In-game Team Rates
Gyarados is not a Special Attacker. I'd change Surf to Waterfall, Blizzard to Ice Fang, Dragon Pulse to DD/EQ, and Hyper Beam to Giga Impact.
And Ampharos could use Signal Beam instead of Thunder.

RE: In-game Team Rates
Alot of changes are needed. I'm not going to give you advice on strategies, but I will help you improve your current team.
1. Typhlosion-HJe is a special based attacker so your move-pool needs help. Focus Punch needs to go unless you are adding Substitute, if not then it will fail most of the time. Rollout is a weak move and Typhlosion gains nothing from it. I'd suggest going with Eruption, Focus Blast, Flamethrower/Fire Blast(for when Eruption is no longer powerful)/Cut.
2. Snorlax- Giga Impact may be stron but the turn it takes to recharge is a major set-back. I'd recoment Curse, but it's your choice.
3. Umbreon-I'd go with Payback over Dark Pulse. With his slightly higher attack and his low speed, it's worth it.
4. Gyarados-Do what the guy above me said, except instead of Giga Impact, use Surf for transportation
5. Ampharos- Use Signal Beam over Iron Tail, Ampharos is a special attacker so physical moves are a no-no.
6. Pidgeot is fine

RE: In-game Team Rates
The team I created in Heartgold, it's just for going through and doing whatever. I've already beat the game. Their levels are in the 50s
Nidoking
Rivalry
-Earth Power
-Megahorn
-Poison Jab
-Blizzard
Houndoom
Early Bird
-Flamethrower
-Crunch (I don't have the dark pulse TM TT-TT)
-Fire Fang
-Thunder Fang
Absol
Super Luck
-Sucker Punch
-Slash
-Swords Dance (will become Psycho Cut)
-Night Slash
Slowbro
Oblivious
-Surf
-Psychic
-Fire Blast
-Slack Off
Zangoose
Immunity
-Crush Claw
-X-Scissor
-Close Combat
-False Swipe
Togekiss
Hustle (I didn't notice it didn't have Serene Grace until it was a Togekiss.... oh well, don't tell me to change it)
-Air Slash
-Aura Sphere
-Fire Blast
-Fly (not actually for battle)
It's worked pretty well so far, but I've been kind of worried about a lack of Ice, and to a lesser extent, Electric moves.

RE: In-game Team Rates
Dark Pulse is relatively easy to find; behind the 3 smashable rocks is where you will find it.
You could teach Return to Zangoose instead of Crush Claw.
Absol could have Shadow Claw.
Other than that I see no flaws.

RE: In-game Team Rates
Making a team for a competitive tournament thing at an anime convention I'm going to. The rules are that we can use any pokemon, but only 1 of each pokemon. We can also only use legendaries that are not event-only (limiting them to Giratina, Dialga, Palkia, Groudon, Kyogre, Rayquaza, Ho-Oh, Lugia, Rotom, Mewtwo, Latias, and Latios) and only 2 of them. Only one of each items can be used as well, and no Soul Dew. Here was the team that I had planned.
Giratina-O - Griseous Orb
Adamant
-Shadow Claw
-Outrage
-Earthquake
-Substitute
Garchomp - (undecided item)
Adamant
-Earthquake
-Swords Dance
-Dragon Claw
-Fire Fang
Kyogre - Sea Incense???
Modest
-Water Spout
-Surf
-Ice Beam
-Thunder
Lucario - Expert Belt
Modest (inner focus ability)
-Aura Sphere
-Shadow Ball
-Dragon Pulse
-Psychic
Scizor - Undecided
Careful (swarm ability)
-Swords Dance
-Baton Pass
-Agility
-U-Turn
Rayquaza - Life Orb
Adamant
-Outrage
-Earthquake
-Crunch
-....undecided. Currently Dragon Claw for filler.
Scizor would be my starter. Scout and a Baton Passer for Rayquaza to sweep. Scizor and Giratina are also there as a sort of Wabbuffet counter as well. Kyogre and Garchomp are there just to hit hard. Lucario is my favorite pokemon so I don't want to take him out no matter what, lol.
Any suggestions about moves that I should change would be well accepted, same with items too. I've never made a competitive team before so this is new to me. I also had a Blissey, a Tyranitar, and a Wabbuffet ready too, but I didn't know if any of them would have fit into my team or not. I'm guessing Wabbuffet would be one to consider switching in? I have no problem making major modifications to this team, so any advice is welcomed.

RE: In-game Team Rates
I'd replace Noctowl with Fearow because the higher attack and speed are much more important in game.
