And read carefully.

It took me a long time to get any semblance of a real team. And please rate it fairly! in the past games when I posted my team, it get like 5 rates and that's it. I need feedback!

(all level 50)

Brelloom@Quick Claw
Sassy/Effect Spore
Spore
Sky uppercut
Giga Drain
Hidden Power (flying, hah!)

Sableye@Brightpowder
Sassy/Keen Eye
Focus Punch
Shadow Ball
Psychic
Confuse Ray

Camerupt@Leftovers
Lax/Oblivious
Eruption
Earthquake
Rock Slide
Amnesia (not important)

Absol@King's Rock
Hardy/Pressure
Hidden Power (STL)
Bite (no shadow ball)
Return
Swords Dance

Lanturn@Salac Berry
Modest/Volt Absorb
Thunderbolt
Surf
Ice Beam
Thunder Wave

Xatu@Lum Berry
Careful/Synchronize
Psychic
Drill Peck

Confuse Ray

And I'm sure I got all my weaknesses covered. Be sure to let me know if it's any good, don't just suggest substitutions.

I have 37 effort ribbons and 25 level 50 pokemon that were originally being raised for my team. These are all the pokemon I went through:

Hariyama
Ninetales
Zangoose
Shedinja
Seviper
Aggron
Slaking
Starmie
Sharpedo
Wobbuffet
Swampert
Heracross
Blaziken
Alakazam
Castform
Salamence
Torkoal
Exploud
Rhydon
Houndoom
Dustox
Metagross
Pupitar
Grumpig
Mawile
Tropius
Flygon

And my main team of six. Some of the above pokemon only got to level 38 or so before I gave up on them. And I don't have a guide. The only information I got off the net initially was level-up and egg moves, and all I did was write down the level at which to evolve them. I didn't even remember half the time what moves they all learned, hence Mawile being abandoned. (it has Return, Crunch, Fake Tears, and Iron Defense)

FYI I never restarted my game EVER and I only have one copy, so that limits my TM and stone usage. The only TM I ever used up was Focus Punch because there was only one pokemon that really seemed to work with it.

I am willing to change movesets IF:

A: no rare TMs used
B: no chain-breeding (two eggs max; for example: Camerupt with R.S.->Spinda->Machop)
C: don't remove perfectly useful attacks.
D: No posting completely different pokemon. The whole point of rating my team is not to say "oh (pokemon) sucks use a (completely different pokemon)" etc. Changing a whole moveset messes up my team and my strategy. I already bred 6 Larvitar eggs just so I could get a good male to teach Aerial Ace, and I'm not even using him in my main team! I am not going to spend three months breeding just to have FR/LG come out and start the whole cycle anew.

And lastly, if you don't like any of these pokemon, I can substitute it for one of the level 50s listed above. Good? good. NO FLAMING PLEASE. If you can't say anything nice, or at least civil, don't say anything at all. And sorry for the ranting.

By the way, no FR/LG movesets, seing as how it won't be out for 3 months yet.

Brelloom: Go with this moveset

Brelloom
-Spore
-Focus Punch
-HP Ghost
-Sword Dance

Put him to sleep than focus punch away. HP ghost for ghost types.

Sableye: I dont no much about him so i'll not say anything.

Camerupt: Put Overheat over Eruption. You could also put body salm over amnesia but your choice

Absol: If you cant get shadow ballon him than go for HP ghost. Put Aerial Ace over bite and your set.

Lanturn: This is the standard

Lanturn
-Rain Dance
-Hydro Pump
-Thunder
-Ice Beam

Xatu: Put Giga Drain over Night Shade.

Good team IMO.

Well! that's a first! Gamefaqs had problems with everything!

BTW HP Ghost? not gonna happen this lifetime. Whatever HP I have will be good, otherwise it takes too much luck.
Aerial Ace I'm working on, and Shadow Ball will be reserved for FR/LG.
Overheat may work but I'll have to find a spare TM. Same goes for Xatu & giga drain.
And Hydro Pump is not a good move.

just note from a glanceover you dont have very good natures, just keep that in mind. honoring your reqs.

Brelloom@Quick Claw
Sassy/Effect Spore
Spore
Sky uppercut
Giga Drain
Hidden Power (flying, hah!)

focuspunch is unique, so i guess that's a no. i'd put leechseed in there. can't do much w/o using tms or breeding. if you want to breed, might as well rebreed for hp~ghost if you are willing to go for a 2-egg poke. put focuspunch on there. breed it from vigoroth.

Sableye@Brightpowder
Sassy/Keen Eye
Focus Punch
Shadow Ball
Psychic
Confuse Ray

meh, breed recover>psychic. nightshade is usually a better idea, but whatever. toxic/knockoff>shadowball

Camerupt@Leftovers
Lax/Oblivious
Eruption
Earthquake
Rock Slide
Amnesia (not important)

overheat>eruption, rest+chestoberry>amnesia+leftovers

Absol@King's Rock
Hardy/Pressure
Hidden Power (STL)
Bite (no shadow ball)
Return
Swords Dance

stl? ok, stick brickbreak>bite, i guess that's all that i can do there

Lanturn@Salac Berry
Modest/Volt Absorb
Thunderbolt
Surf
Ice Beam
Thunder Wave

attract/confuseray>icebeam.

Xatu@Lum Berry
Careful/Synchronize
Psychic
Drill Peck
Night Shade
Confuse Ray

gigadrain>nightshade, hp~fire>confuseray, calmmind>drillpeck.


you got it, mostly. i tried to honor your requirements as much as possible, but some cases i just couldn't. sorry
