Raise Meganium's SpA and EV it for SpA/Spd. Also, get rid of Frenzy Plant and switch it with Poison Powder so you can chain with Giga Drain for steady damage. Leech Seed might be a good idea if it's leading.

Too tired to do everything else.
 
Hey! You copied me on the Focus Blast on Swampert thing! >:l
Get rid of fly, fly sucks :P So does frenzy plant. Huurhurr

EDIT Iron tail on Charizard REPLACE with eh arial ace? Idk

what do you think?

get the final two to level 100, then we'll talk

otherwise your team needs improvement
 
just to let you know i only use attack moves, i don't like other moves the battle takes to long then.
 
Agreed. You're definately going to need to fix those movesets. I don't want to think right now, I'll criticize later.
 
"you'll never win" is an exaggeration, but of course, you won't win very often at all without movesets that have strategy. EV training can make a big difference too.

Meganium doesn't need three Grass-type moves. Go with Giga Drain, Body Slam, PoisonPowder, and perhaps something else. Personally, I would go with Reflect or Light Screen, but I might be wrong.

You should also train your Pokemon for EVs. For example, a Raichu with 6 HP EVs, 252 Special Attack and 252 Speed is great with Thunderbolt. Focus Blast is fine, I guess... I'm not sure about any other moves.

If you're going to use Charizard with physical attack moves, go with Fire Fang instead of Flamethrower.

Flygon would be good with Earthquake, Rock Slide, Dragon Claw and Fire Blast or Flamethrower to destroy those super-effective Ice-types. Beware of Walrein!

Personally, my Swampert's done well with Surf, Earthquake, Body Slam and Rock Tomb.
 
I can see you don't really care about EVs/IVs. Or just don't know about them.

Anyways, everything I want to say's already been said.. Meh.
 
Uhh People, Zuea wins all the time with only attack moves.

Oh yeah use umbreon instead of one of the fire types, use dark pulse for one of the moves~
 
most people facing real competition will most likely lose with all attack moves
 
@Ice Tiger: You said that she wins almost all the time with only attack moves. You didn't say she wins in real competitive battling.

I recommend these EV spreads and movesets for your Pokemon, Zuea:

Charizard: 6 HP, 252 Attack and 252 Speed. Teach it Belly Drum, Fire Punch/Fire Fang, Rock Slide and maybe Dragon Claw, if it can learn it.

Rapidash: 6 HP, 252 Special Attack and 252 Speed. Make sure it knows Flamethrower!

Flygon: 6 HP, 250 Attack, 4 Special Attack and 250 Speed. Teach it Dragon Claw, Earthquake, Fire Blast and Rock Slide.

Swampert: 6 HP, 252 Attack and 252 Speed. Seriously, Swampert does better with Attack moves. Teach it Waterfall, Rock Tomb, Earthquake and Body Slam. Or maybe something defensive in there.

Meganium:
6 HP, 252 Special Attack, 252 Defense or Special Defense. Make sure it knows Giga Drain.

Raichu: 6 HP, 252 Special Attack, 252 Speed. Make sure it knows Thunderbolt
 
oh my god you guys

NO ONE NOTICED THE RAICHU WITH LIGHT BALL? I mean I wasn't expecting much but guys Light Ball does nothing for Raichu. why does the Raichu have a Light Ball
why did no one comment already


don't post stats, either; either note nature and/or EVs or skip them entirely. levels count here, too


if you refuse to use non-offensive moves, ffs do not use Umbreon. Umbreon's offensive stats are terrible.


Surf > Muddy Water on Swampert; Frenzy Plant sucks


@EEVEESKITTY: Smogon is for competitive teams; this is probably not competitive. Note the board and general attitude.
 
Oh hey- any one reading this? Need Luxray moveset help.
Lax nature Item:(changes alot) Berries usually.
Currently knows: Thunderbolt, Crunch, Return, Discharge. Suggestions? (Don't want to make a thread for this)

Also Zuea wins half the time~
 
Doesn't need both Thunderbolt and Discharge. Get rid of Discharge for something else.

For the second part: As surskitty said, this is not true competitive battling if Zuea wins half the time like this.
