Complete My Team!

Hello, I'm building a sandstorm team in BW OU. So far I have: Tyranitar to start the sandstorm. Breloom for a physical sweeper with Spore. Forretress to set up Toxic Spikes and Spikes.
Any suggestions for more Pokemon to add, or any Pokemon I should replace?

Make sure tyranitar sets up stealth rock, foretress knows rapid spin, and you can easily fit landorus,scizor,terrakion,gliscor, etc. somewhere in your team.
 
@Easter Egg two things.

1. personally, on sand team, i use a BP gliscor with sand veil that Bps to a metagross. but i recommend scarf landorus as a physical attacker, and a rotom-w to counter rain teams.

2. aren't you a member of TeG over on serebii?
 
Hello!
I'd like to ask another question (BW OU)...
So, I'm planning a team. I have Celebi, Rotom-W and Heatran. I see that Blissey and Chansey would be a problem to these Pokemon, so I'm looking for a Fighting-type to help me counter Blissey and Chansey.
So...which one should I use? Conkeldurr, Terrakion, Cobalion or Virizion? Well, my mind's set on either Conkeldurr or Terrakion...but I prefer Terrakion due to its Speed.
Thanks!

Of the fighting types you listed, Terrakion is best in the current metagame.
 
It depends on what your team needs more. If you don't have a revenge-killer, go with Scarf Terrakion. If you want something to hit hard with priority, Conkeldurr. Etc.

looks good at a glance, but it needs descriptions and its own thread since it's finished.
 
Okay so I'm looking for some advice on finishing my team for VGC '12 I'm going with a sun team. Here's what I have thus far. I'm flexible for input on anything really.

~~Ninetales~~
Iron ball
Quiet 252 spA/252 HP/4 def
Drought
-Heatwave
-solarbeam
-will-o-wisp
-protect

~~Typhlosion~~
Fire Gem
Timid 252 spA/252 spe/4 def
Blaze
-Eruption
-heatwave
-solarbeam
-protect

~~Whimsicott~~
Focus Sash
Timid 252 HP/252 spe/ 4 def
Prankster
-encore
-sunny day
-tailwind
-protect

~~Tangrowth~~
Leftovers
Impish 252 HP/252 def/ 4 atk
Chlorophyll
-Power whip
-sleep powder
-protect
-stun spore

~~Salamence~~
Choice specs
modest 252 spA/252 spe/4 hp
intimidate
-Draco meteor
-heatwave
-hydropump
-air cutter

I don't really know what to go with for the last slot. I'm thinking going with mamoswine, I feel that a solid strong physical attacking ice type really compliments the rest of the team but I could be off base here. Or perhaps latios? Any other suggestions?
 
well i don't know much about VGC, so i won't post any sets. but your team seems pretty well rounded. i notice this seems to be an offensively based team. you could try something defensive. again, i don't know much about VGC, so i'll recommend the defensive/specially defensive role to you.

How do you deal with Tyranitar and Politoed?
 
okay I would like a strong normal type to complete the team that I came up with. It's just on paper. So far

Venusaur, Lanturn, Armaldo, Infernape, Bisharp
 
well, here's something me and some friends were talking about earlier.

you could try a snorlax. it gets belly drum and gluttony. held item sitris berry. but you need trick room to use it the best.
 
Yeah, Belly Drum does not work and you're missing out on lefties. Besides, Curse is just so pro. And I can't choose a sufficient Normal type for you unless you give your team's roles and what not.
 
charizard has run belly drum successfully in 4th gen, i think. bellyzard. but with a venusaur, wouldn't it be better to run a drought team?
