CBlax is amazing. focus punch > fire blast cause of maggy.

Well first of all you have a Dusclops even w/out spikes and that's generally a bad idea, as its main purpose is to block RS. I'd suggest getting some other restalker (zappy helps with gyara, for example)

On lax I would keep either FP or EQ and ditch the other one for Selfdestruct, but that's just me. Also I think you just forgot to make it Adamant here. And instead of splitting EVs between defenses, I suggest just maxing HP and putting the rest in one of them.

What most people forget is that Maggy makes for an okay back up tank b/c of its nice typing and decent stats. It can be your normal resist if you make it bulkier. You can also give him a restalk set if you want to ditch Dusclops for something more useful.

K, the thing is I don't really see Venu doing much. He's kinda just begging for Celebi to come in on LS and start setting up. I'd ditch him for a bulky water or something.

I like Claydol over Starmie for RSing and better tanking, but if you like Starmie b/c he can clean late game, then ok.

I second this, seeing how Magneton is flimsy as a Flying resist
 

Great Sage

Banned deucer.
Why is Snorlax Brave when it doesn't have any special attacks? Adamant with a dash of speed (no more than 20 EVs) can help you outrun other Snorlax, Slowbro, and other things that stick around the 30 base bracket.
 
yea, i fixed that after i posted. it was originally because i put Fire blast on him, but then i decided maggy would work well w/ this team so i dropped it for focus punch and forgot to change the nature.
 
with the CB snorlax set, i encourage you to look out for CM raikou, the HP ice variant, and also other electrics with HP ice since CB snorlax with no wish support doesnt last that long.

if you need a normal/status taker, and you're using metagross, id put stalking skarm over that, since it does the same thing, removes the heracross weakness, and gives this spikes team some very handy spikes..
