They always fall for the eyes!
Ok, this is my new team. I've been using it on Shoddy, and I think I'm going to train it on the games. But before I do that, I want your opinions. So please, all posts welcome!

Machamp @ Lum Berry
Adamant 240 HP/248 Att/16 SpD/4 Spe
Dynamic Punch
Bullet Punch
Ice Punch
Payback
Machamp is the best anti lead in the metagame. It can beat almost every conventional lead. Its not uncommon for me to beat a second, or even a third pokemon. Gengar expecting a OHKO fail, and then get beaten by Payback.
![Weavile](http://www.dragonflycave.com/oldforums/images/vbsprites/pt/Weavile.png)
Weavile @ Choice Band
Jolly 40 HP/252 Att/216 Spe
Ice Shard
Pursuit
Low Kick
Ice Punch
Weavile is an effective revenge killer, with its great attack and speed. It can beat all dragons, barring Kingdra, and traps Celebi. It can OHKO Tyranitar (as long as it isn’t holding a Chople Berry…) with Low Kick, even with max HP and Defense. Ice Punch is there for a stronger STAB move.
![Gyarados](http://www.dragonflycave.com/oldforums/images/vbsprites/pt/Gyarados.png)
Gyarados @ Life Orb
Adamant 252 Att/4 Def/252 Spe
Dragon Dance
Waterfall
Earthquake
Stone Edge
Gyarados works great in tandem with Heatran. It can switch in on the incoming Ground type move, Dance on the switch, and sweep.
![Heatran](http://www.dragonflycave.com/oldforums/images/vbsprites/pt/Heatran.png)
Heatran @ Choice Scarf
Naïve 4 Att/252 SpA/252 Spe
Fire Blast
Earth Power
Dragon Pulse
Explosion
Heatran can be used as a great special attacker. I like to use it to create opportunites for Gyarados, as well as an attacker. It can hit unexpectedly on a switch to a dragon to resist Fire Blast with Dragon Pulse, and then beat it next turn.
![Starmie](http://www.dragonflycave.com/oldforums/images/vbsprites/pt/Starmie.png)
Starmie @ Life Orb
Timid 4 HP/252 SpA/252 Spe
Hydro Pump
Thunderbolt
Ice Beam
Rapid Spin
On this team, it is a good idea to have a spinner. Starmie works good here because it fulfills its position as a spinner, and also fits into this team of heavy hitters. It can beat most sweepers, and heavily dent the ones it can’t beat.
![Shaymin](http://www.dragonflycave.com/oldforums/images/vbsprites/pt/Shaymin.png)
Shaymin @ Choice Specs
Modest 4 HP/252 SpA/252 Spe
Seed Flare
Earth Power
Air Slash
Hidden Power Fire
Ok, I know a lot of people don’t like Shaymin, but I found it was a good special sweeper. It can hit most rock, ground, and bulky waters for a 1 or 2HKO. It also has a bit of surprise factor, too. Not many people will be pleased when their Heatran or Scizor is KO'd with Earth Power or HP Fire.
