My second post, my second RMT. Explanations included this time lol.

Sorry, Surgo for not explaining. I didn't actually post just "6 standards." They actually work for the most part in conjunction. Except for the first one lol.

Gengar @ Leftovers
Trait: Levitate
EVs: 252 SAtk / 252 Spd / 4 HP
Nature: Timid
- Hypnosis
- Thunderbolt
- Destiny Bond
- Shadow Ball

Gengar is simply here because he's awesome to start with. Shadow Ball for STAB, Hypnosis because it's just awesome, Thunderbolt for all around smackage, and Destiny Bond in case I'm going to die? lol that was just a filler move I guess. Now, the whole team is one from this point on.

Tyranitar @ Choice Band
Trait: Sandstream
EVs: 88 HP / 252 Atk / 170 Spd
Nature: Adamant
- Stone Edge
- Earthquake
- Crunch
- Pursuit

He is the core of my team. He gets the Sandstream going. I think that's the standard moveset for CBtar, but I'm not going to lie, I do not know what to do w/EVs or Nature, so please help there. I'm still a newb at this lol.

Land Shark @ Life Orb
Trait: Sand Veil
EVs: 252 Atk / 252 Spd / 4 HP
Nature: Jolly
- Earthquake
- Swords Dance
- Dragon Claw
- Fire Fang

Obviously, I use it because it's a beast and it gets evasion off sandstream. Standard set I believe lol.

Skarmory @ Leftovers
Trait: Sturdy
EVs: 252 HP / 216 Atk / 40 Def
Nature: Impish
- Spikes
- Whirlwind
- Drill Peck
- Feather Rest

Standard Skarmory, I use it for walling, and laying my Spikes for the most part. Also, once I get everything together, I can start Whirlwind damaging if need be. Again, immune to Sandstream.

Blissey @ Leftovers
Trait: Natural Cure
EVs: 212 HP / 252 Def / 40 SAtk
Nature: Bold
- Wish
- Protect
- Seismic Toss
- Ice Beam

This ho holds my team together. It's very nice to have the ability to heal my sluggers as they come in so they can swing away. Sadly, she is not immune to sandstream. But she is my fat whore special wall.

Swampert @ Leftovers
Trait: Torrent
EVs: 252 HP / 252 Def / 44 Atk
Nature: Relaxed
- Earthquake
- Waterfall
- Protect
- Stealth Rock

My final team member who, I believe, is also immune to Sandstream. He also gets my Stealth Rock rolling and is a very much needed Water-type addition to my team.


Well that's my team. The goal is basically to either sweep them or slowly wipe them away, or a combination of the two. Theoretically, it seems like it should work pretty smoothly. However, I am a newb to competitive battling, so, please. Help me out lol.
 
Well, I can make explinations for any team, but it dosnt stop it from being just standard sets.

we have nothing to rate if you use standardized teams. as well their obiusly moderate-good.

It should also be noted, that once Gengar is gone, Gyarados can switch in on anything.
Yeah, and it actually doesn't need to be a bulkier version at all — an all-out offense Jolly one only really needs (to use) Waterfall to utterly destroy this team when it gets a DD, which it can freely on four of these pokes.

Screw Stealth Rock on Swampert, deluxe, you don't need both SE and SPikes on one team, and especially not if there's another glaring weakness that needs to be addressed. Give Swampert Stone Edge instead, and you may actually want SR on Skarmory over Spikes.

A slight quibble would be to put Black Sludge over Leftovers for Gengar just in case someone decides to trick Gengar's item.

Consider Beautiful Skin on Skarmory since you have Feather Rest; you might wait and see how popular Jibacoil turns out to be, though.
