Not sure how good Steelix' defense is...is your 3x Fighting weakness a problem?
hey guys here's another little team of mine
Gengar
@ Leftovers
~Ice Punch
~Hypnosis
~Thunderbolt
~Perish Song
ok this little buddy has worked great thus far. Ice Punch + Thunderbolt is all but necessary really, and I can put things I don't like to sleep (since Hypnosis is pretty unexpected from Gengar). Finally, Perish Song is such a great move, from final Curselaxen to Tentacruel to Double Teamers.
Exeggutor
@ Leftovers
~Giga Drain
~Psychic
~Stun Spore
~Explosion
Stun Spore is quite helpful and is not countered by Sleep Talkers
The rest is pretty self-explanatory.
Snorlax
@ Leftovers
~Curse
~Fire Blast
~Body Slam
~Rest
The only real sweeper on the team, and what a sweeper he can be.
Cloyster
@ Leftovers
~Ice Beam
~Spikes
~Surf/Clamp
~Explosion
Still deciding between Surf and Clamp.
Zapdos
@ Leftovers
~Drill Peck
~Thunderbolt
~Sleep Talk
~Rest
Cleaner, to be honest.
Steelix
@ Leftovers
~Curse
~Earthquake
~Explosion
~Roar
If a Flying type comes around I can just Roar it away and rack up Spikes damage while Cursing up and Exploding when it's time.

The Fighting weakness hasn't been a problem as of yet. Exeggutor and Zapdos resist them along with having a super-effective attack against them, and Gengar is immune to them (though Gengar isn't very dependable since most Fighting types have Earthquake or a Ghost Hidden Power(I like that smiley)).
Steelix has a 498 Defense, second to Shuckle. I wanted to use Golem at first, but I wanted something besides Snorlax that could handle a Crunching Raikou.
Thanks guys. Have a nice day.![]()
Rock Slide is just so weak, but I'm not so sure about lacking a way to hit Flyers with Steelix without blowing it to smithereens. =[ Spikes isn't much more than "ahaha take that Leftovers!" because it doesn't have the power to seriously soften things up unless you Roar in and have them switch out the same pokemon ten turns in a row.

good team. a+

Rock Slide works well on Steelix if you have Curse. At least it has for me. I'm not a big fan of blowing up your physical tank.
