I would take out Furret if I were you. Because it and farfetched are normal type. Also it doesn't really learn that many good moves. It's strongest move is Hyper voice and it doesn't learn that until level 56. That's just my opinion though.

Anyone knoqw any good moves for the Xatu that is on my team now? It knows: Confuse Ray, Fly, Pluck and U-turn. Is that good or should I teach it some new ones?

Also do you guys know where a Heart Scale is on Soul Silver?

Heart Scale: Pokewalker

My Xatu has: Wish, Protect, Shadow Ball, Psychic - it has Speed and SpD EVs IIRC.

Furret is Physically oriented, so Hyper Voice isn't that useful - it does learn Return however :D
Also, if I were to take someone out atm, it'd prob be FF'd XD

Anyway, sorted it out.
FF'd -> Passer to Flareon -> Sweeper.
Furret -> Revenge Killer, Flygon -> LO'd Special Attacker
Forretress -> Support, Floatzel -> Physical Attacker/Utility

Just need to work out how to make my Flareon tank Surfs and KOs Bulky Waters XP
I think he'll need help from Flygon with HP Elec/Grass for that.

I need a cool team for my FireRed. I can have any Pokemon from gen 1-3 except Legends. None of the Pokemon matter to me. I just want a tough team, 2 Pokemon from each Gen would be cool though. I may say no to a few Pokemon but I'm mainly OK with anything.

Dragonite, Jolteon, Umbreon, Skarmory, Metagross, Sceptile...

well, it's all up to you, you have so many pokemon available.
No one can go back and change a bad beginning; but anyone can start now and create a successful ending.
If a problem can be solved, no need to worry about it. If it cannot be solved what is the use of worrying?

I think I might do that. Except Sceptile, Skamory and Umbreon. I just over use Sceptile and am training an Umbreon on SoulSilver. I'll think of those three, but I hadn't thought of Metagross or Dragonite, thanks.

Firstly, it's all fish... but no Magikarp?! I am disappoint Pidgey. I am disappoint. However, I can tell by the fact that you aren't using him it's "supposed" to be competitive, amirite? Well, in that case, how does classification of fish begin? Through type, dex entry, shape, appearance? All, none?

Golem would do well with Earthquake instead of Rock Smash, Explosion instead of Roll Out.

Whischash maybe curse instead of Strength?

Weavile Night Slash, Avalanche instead of Faint Attack and Ice Beam. Slash is better than cut if you like a purely offensive moveset. I'd suggest a status/protect move.

Crobat may be better off with Poison Jab instead of Wing Attack. And perhaps double team instead of Air Slash
thanks, I'll make the changes now.

P.S I tried, pioson jab and crobat aren't compatible.(stupid T.Ms)

Perhaps he meant Poison Fang, which Crobat can learn. However, I'd check to see which is higher first on your Crobat. Special Attack or Attack. If Attack is higher, then Poison Fang is a solid choice. If its Special Attack is higher, then moves like Air Slash would be better.

Sorry, mistake from my part (I'm not used yet by all the Gen IV moves >.<).

You can teach it X-Scissor for psychic pokemon instead of Air Slash (if it's a Crobat with more attack than special attack). Having Wing attack, Fly and Air cutter is not that useful since you have three damaging attacks of the same type with relatively no difference in secondary effects.

Well in that case, we'll have a bit of an issue. Most of the 'pokes types and movesets don't really help each other at all. You'll pretty much have to limit it down to 'wall, wall, tank, attack, attack, utility.' Otherwise, the team will be even worse. :s

In that case, Kamaran posted a pretty awesome set for a Tanking SR Corsola. (Never tried it, so I can't say how effective it is, but I imagine it would work just fine if played properly.)

I think you should go with the DD Version of Whiscash, honestly. His new toy is incredibly fun. (Hehe.) It actually made him pretty viable in UU for a while before his popularity dropped off. Personally, I used Rock Slide for the better accuracy. You always notice misses so much more on boosting 'mons, you know?

Quote
Dragon Dance @ Life Orb
Anticipation / Adamant
EVs: 4 HP / 252 Atk / 252 Spe

- Dragon Dance
- Earthquake
- Waterfall
- Rock Slide

For Seaking... Well, Pidgey... You're using Seaking. What do you expect? I can only remember him having two sets. CBand and a Flail one, iirc. So, I'd recommend the CBand one. Lest you have two set up 'mons.

Now, on to Wailord... Mmm, how Skitty on Wailord action... Uh, I mean... Give him a CScarf, obviously! -Coughs.- But, really. Weaker Kyogre? Hell, that doesn't matter. He hits hard with Water Spout. As you know, I modify all of my movesets and stats for personal preference, so this is mine, but you can use theirs:

Quote
Wailord @ Choice Scarf
Water Veil / Naive
EVs: 24 HP / 252 SpA / 232 Spe

- Water Spout
- Surf
- Selfdestruct
- Hidden Power Grass

On to... Luvdisc. Err, yeah. How about you just give it four random moves and hope it doesn't die in a single shot? Really though, probably the annoyer set is as good as you're getting for that. And, also iirc, Lumineon only has one set. A Rain Dance one, which isn't bad. As it would give you a second stand alone sweeper, but you would still lack overall defense. So, the best candidate for that would be either Wailord or Lumineon. (Average defenses and HP. Not really good, but meh. You're using chansey Seaking.)
