    Guests are not able to post messages or even read certain areas of the forums. Now, that's boring, don't you think? Registration, on the other hand, is simple, completely free of charge, and does not require you to give out any personal information at all. As soon as you register, you can take part in some of the happy fun things at the forums such as posting messages, voting in polls, sending private messages to people and being told that this is where we drink tea and eat cod.

    Of course I'm not forcing you to do anything if you don't want to, but seriously, what have you got to lose? Five seconds of your life?

Cant wait to hear peoples thoughts!
 
Just wondering: what tier is this team supposed to be? Garchomp is Uber, which would automatically place your team in Uber, but you don't have any other Ubers on your team... Meanwhile, you have NU pokemon like Zangoose there, too.
 
Hrm, a Zoroark with Dig? First of all, Zoroark have base 60 Defense and Special Defense, so basically Earthquake is your death. And Hone Claws raises Attack, so you should invest in Attack, not Sp. Attack. And for Froslass, I would recomend Ice Beam over Blizzard. It's the same case as Thunder and Thunderbolt; you get a little less power, but more accuracy.
 
Dig is just a horrible move, period. The moment you Dig down, your opponent will either Earthquake you to death (Earthquake has more base damage anyhow) or swap to something that flies/Levitates, so your Dig ends up missing and your opponent gets a free switch. Swap all Dig for Earthquake.
 
Dragon Rush has horrible accuracy. Switch it for Dragon Pulse. That is another key to victory. And why do you give Zangoose Rest without a Chesto Berry or Sleep Talk? That means Lucario can 2HKO you once you Rest.
 
ok people i want u all to stop posting on this. my dsi was stolen with pokemon white in it so...
