Hi everyone! I am a beginner and looking for some constructive feedback. Have done a lot of research in various places, including this very thread, my present team / breeding efforts are a bit disjointed and looking for some advice to put it all together into a cohesive unit.

I am presently working towards breeding a quiet Honedge, was also looking into Metagross, Marowak-A, Mimikuyu and Weaville. Have not caught Celesteela, Guzzlord, Tapu Fini and Tapu Bulu yet, have loose plans for them as based on Smogon but not sure on where to fit.
I have also gathered that my EV training has left a few things to be desired due to the level 50 cap of Battle Spot, will be working to rectify.
