Ha lol you don't like noobs... Anyways, yeah mono-teams are really hard sometimes, I know at first I lost every battle with my Dragon team..mainly because, i sucked.  Now I know I've gotten a lot better and if you try with one type keep working with it, then you'll get better.

Ponge, I'm gonna go with water types, turns out I suck with psychic T_T

I'll change you to Water for now, but if you want to give Psychic another try, feel free to tell me and I'll change you back.

Is anyone able to contact Ms.Boss at all?

I checked his profile and it said:
"Last Active:  December 11, 2011, 09:10:39 pm" , so no need to worry.


Anyway, this is how my normal team looks for now. I know, I still have alot of Slashes, but it's just a rough draft atm. Maybe you guys could help decrease the amount of slashes and give a general comment about the team so far. Let's show it to the mass ;)

Tauros @ Life Orb
252 Spe / 252 Atk / 4 HP
Sheer Force, Jolly
- Rock Climb
- Rock Slide
- Wild Charge
- Earthquake / iron Head / Zen Headbutt

Ditto @ Choice Scarf
252 Hp / Whatever else you want
Imposter, any speed-boosting nature
- Transform

Snorlax @ Leftovers
188 HP / 104 Def / 216 SpD
Thick Fat, Careful
- Curse
- Body Slam 
- Earthquake / Crunch 
- Rest

Staraptor @ Life Orb / Expert Belt
252 Spe / 252 Atk / 4 HP
Reckless, Jolly
- Brave Bird
- Close Combat
- Roost
- Return / Substitute / Agility

Porygon2 @ Eviolite (Leftovers after balance, since Eviolite won't be in PU)
252 HP / 252 Def / 4 SpD
Trace, Bold Nature
- Thunderbolt
- Ice Beam
- Thunder Wave / Toxic
- Recover

Togekiss@ Life Orb
192 HP /  80 SpA / 236 Spd
Serene Grace, Timid Nature
- Nasty Plot
- Air Slash
- Aura Sphere / Roost
- Fire Blast

Other than Ditto and Taurus, your team is pretty slow. They have the bulk though so I'm pretty sure it doesn't matter but I was just point it out :p

I can't run a slow team...just a personal thing. If you wanna run Return on Staraptor then you could look into Double-Edge since it gets the Reckless boost. I'm sure you want an attack that doesn't have any negative side effects though. With Taurus, EQ is gonna be your best bet in terms of coverage.

Staraptor isn't that slow (101 base), but I get your point though. The point is there aren't any fast special normal type sweepers (Porygon Z's 90 base is around the fastest ones, so I went for bulk with Togekiss and Porygon2 (who will probably run T-wave for synergy with Togekiss' flinchhax and to slow the opponent down. Snorlax is a great tank and ads even more paralysis to the mix with Body slam. He's also a great special wall and cursing up shouldn't be too hard with him. He's also my insurance against TR-teams, who can be deadly, proven by Noah.
 
Another negative side effect For Staraptor wouldn't do him good and finish him off too soon, that's why I putted Return there as an option (though Agility could be nice to outspeed opposite scarfers).

Miss Wednesday... One thing i've learned about mono teams on pu... You cant give up on a type every type is worth it...I mean even mono ice can be made useful in this game... The more you use your type, and study every pokemon of that type-the better you will become. Also, as you battle the same ppl, you start realizing what u need on ur team in this game, and what you dont need. Dont keep switching because of losses. Start switching your style while using the same type. Use pokemon that you would never have used b4, alot of pokemon that aren't key in the metagame, are key in this game. Stick with one type and up ur skill. Psychic can be great i mean look at Mr. Psychic...He has created multiple psychic teams that can compete with anything...This guild isnt completly focused on victories like the Yin of Y/Y, its more about mastering your types. This means learning about more than just six pokemon, it may even mean training more than 6 pokemon for battle(different key pokemon may be needed to defeat different players, in a tourney im sure you'd be aloud to switch out one or two pokemon b4 a match). I had to change my outlook on pokemon to play this game-everyone did/did. I think thats what you are going to have to realize. You have potential every one knows i usually dont like noobs, but you notice i try to help you all the time... Certain things you do in battle show me that you have potential to be one of the best, same with Misery.
Thanks deadae C: but tbh I don't know that much about psychic pokemon, water pokemon has always been easy for me to use, I just wanted to use Psychic types because my favorite pokemon is Xatu <3

one peice is awsome! i used to think it was completly childish b4 i knew anything about it... but unlike most popular shonen jump anima they have really done their homework(if u know anything about the real blackbeard and the girl luffy was created from i forget her name)most animae make jokes and i hide my face cuz im embarrassed to be watching it...example...naruto....but one peice is so hillarius.

sry off topic but wednessday always makes me wanna say something bout one peice

miss i wasn't writing that to convince you to stay with psychich stay with any one type and be amazed as you grow....and your water team...lacks a counter for grass types get some advice from chad id think grass is too much of a prob for him u could also scarf someone and ice beam ur ass off that should stop sceptile...spd is 744 max if that helps or u could just not let it activate its item...
