Houndoom @Focus Band

Sunny Day/Fire Blast/Solar Beam/Crunch

Standardish. I open with him to kill any Forretress or Cloyster that tries to Spike me.

Houndoom is great. But with sunny day you may not need fire blast's extra power.

Slowking @Quick Claw

Thunder Wave/Surf/Psychic/Ice Beam

EDIT: Replaced Swagger with Ice Beam to help deal with Dragonite. >_<

I found Flamethrower to be really nice on Slowking but i dont see anything wrong here

EDIT: Typo

Aerodactyl @Leftovers

Wing Attack/Ancient Power/Earthquake/Whirlwind

My PHazer as well as my tank. Cross fingers for the Ancient Power effect.

I really like Aerodactyl but only if it gets some attack passed from Scizor or Smeargle. i really cant see how this is a tank though.

Steelix @Leftovers

Earthquake/Rock Slide/Curse/Explosion

This could work if steelix had less weaknesses to special types, however, since i dont expect him to survive, i prefer the sets built around toxic

Hitmontop @Focus Band

Hi Jump Kick/Agility/Counter/Rapid Spin

Blows away Spikes, beats down on Physical attackers.

Im having some trouble understanding this set since i dont believe Hitmontop is the best choice to put counter on and it gains little benefit from agility.

Jolteon @Leftovers

Thunder Wave/Thunderbolt/Reflect/Bite

Bite for Flinching, Reflect for Pseudo-Passing.

Do you think Bite is worth a small chance of flinching? I dont. A nice HP: Special would do better

Rate away......you can change moves and items, but not Pokemon.

EDIT: Replaced Arbok with Steelix, and gave Slowking Ice Beam.
