My attempt at building some kind of GSC team

I think this may just be the only GSC team ever to not use Snorlax, Skarmory, or Blissey. (If you're wondering why not, it's because I simply don't find them as fun to play with.)

Everybody holds Leftovers except Alakazam. (Fuck you, Item Clause)
EDIT: updates in bold
Alakazam w/ Miracleberry
- Psychic
- Fire Punch
- Recover
- Thunderpunch
Nothing here that needs my commentary.

Tyranitar
- Earthquake
- Crunch
- Rock Slide
- Thunderbolt
blah blah blah blah blah

Suicune
- Surf
- Roar
- Mirror Coat
- Toxic
Just because it makes a better wall than Umbreon.

Miltank
- Milk Drink
- Body Slam
- Heal Bell
- Curse
Boring old Cursetank (or is it Milcurse? I forgot), move along

Scizor
- Baton Pass
- Agility
- Swords Dance
- Hidden Power Bug
Baton passer, etc

Dragonite
- Wing Attack
- Surf
- Ice Beam
- Extremespeed
Just a mixed sweeper. Shame it doesn't have much of a physical movepool in GSC. :\

Most GSC team actually lack Skarmory and Blissey nowadays ;D

Your team actually has a problem with a lot of the NYPC Pokemon, such as Lovely Kiss Nidoking or Snorlax.  In fact, LK Drumlax can plow though this team.  I would suggest swapping out Umbreon (who does nothing for the team anyways) for a good old Machamp, or Heracross, who can mess up both of them with STAB fighting moves.

Dragon is still a piss-poor STAB type, move along.  I would suggest using Wing Attack/HP Fight/Thunderbolt/Surf for a mixed attacker.

HP Bug is a better STAB move on Scizor than Steel Wing, and really, what are you passing to?  I would suggest using something to take status over Scizor, or hell, even Rest/Sleep Talk/SD/HP Bug Scizor

I dunno why Tyranitar has HP Fight, it mght be wiser to use Roar/Curse/Rock Slide/EQ or Crunch/Tbolt/Rock Slide/EQ for an attacking set.  And don't say TBolt is just for Skarmory, Suicune is a pokemon too D:

Miltank really doesn't do anything because you don't run anything with Rest, so why do you have it to heal bell?  You might be wise to try a nice sturdy ground or flying type in that slot.

I'm curious as to how Nidoking is going to be messed up by a type it resists.

I'll consider it.

My tests in PS2 usually end up with me passing SD to Dragonite or Agility to Tyranitar.

I dunno why Tyranitar has HP Fight, it mght be wiser to use Roar/Curse/Rock Slide/EQ or Crunch/Tbolt/Rock Slide/EQ for an attacking set.  And don't say TBolt is just for Skarmory, Suicune is a pokemon too D:
So it can do super effective damage to more things. And Suicune is a Pokemon I forgot about.

Paralysis and others screw up Alakazam's sweeping abilities.

Oh, well, Nidoking is messed up by Earthquake which both of them learn and I meant to mention there.

I'd still suggest putting rest on a few things before you use Heal Bell, as it's easier to keep Alakazam away from paralysis than it is to keep heal belling whenever he gets paralyzed.

Gold Berry's the equivalent of the Sitrus Berry.  YOu're thinking of the Miracle Berry.
