Try giving your Pokemons moves that they are weak to.

Unless your Electivire is a Sp. Attacker, get rid of the Thunderbolt and Flamthrower and give it Thunder Punch and Fire Punch. Thunderbolt for Gengar. Also, if you send out Gyarados, make sure you switch out for Electivire and nothing else to take an Electric attack. If I was at my house, I'd help out a lot more, but sadly I can't.

What tier do you play in? Garchomp is banned in the Standard Tier. If you play Ubers, get some Kyrogrez and Rayquazaz and Latioz'z. :D

You may have trouble with finding a battle with garchomp. He is considered an uber by many because of smogon. Also i think Gengar can learn ice beam use it. Also as a recommedation replace garchomp with salamance w/ drago meteor, dragon dance, dragon claw , and another move .

Ok, my thoughts, add items to this so I can see whats going to be used as what, Give Garchomp Stone Edge, Breed Lucario for the move Blaze Kick, Give Electivire Ice Punch, Gengar I would run a more special attack oriented set or a fun wall (Substitute, Pain Split, Shadow Ball & Focus Blast) its atk stat sucks..., Infernape is fine as I see it but it should be in your lead position. Iteming according to me would be Garchomp@Choice Band, Infernape@ Focus Sash, Gyrados@Leftovers, Lucario@Choice Scarf, Electivire@Expert Belt, and Gengar@Life Orb for my build... My only overall concern with this build is the amount of fighting type moves that are present and the lack of grass to deal with walls or bulky pokemon in general

Infernape would be my lead, sorry about placement on list. Also, as Garchomp is considered an Uber, what would you recommend I replace it with? You mentioned a lack of grass, what should I use?

Gengar should have hidden power fire or explosion, not fire punch. Or perhaps you could have a sub gengar. Lucario needs crunch, like NEEDS it man. As for the last pokemon slot... I'll think of one later. Garchomp is banned cause it's an uber, as most people play based on smogon. EDIT: Add in a mixmence, cause they are just that awesome :D

Gengar should be your last resort seeing how you can make them sleep, use dream eater to suck their life out

[quote] cyber935 : Gengar should be your last resort seeing how you can make them sleep, use dream eater to suck their life out [/quote] Hypnosis has such low accuracy. Gengar can't take a hit from anything, it's used as a revenge killer. If you miss with hypnosis then you're screwed, and dream eater sucks anyways.

No no no, Lucario with blaze kick and a choice item is theee best scizor counter imo, plus it hits metagross and sometimes bronzong for super effective compared to close combat. As for replacing garchomp, I would go with a... BRELOOM@ Toxic Orb w/poison heal as the ability and then Bulk Up, Mach Punch, Seed Bomb, And Spore, or a Celebi@ Choice Specs w/Leaf Storm, Psychic, Earth Power, and Signal Beam for some fun time as a special sweeper
