Hi, interesting looking team. You don't have any descriptions but I'm gonna give it a rate anyway, because your team needs some improvement.

First of all Chatot is really not viable so I would suggest replacing that Pokemon with Zapdos, which forms a great core with Skarmory. The moves you want to run on Zapdos are Discarge, Roost, Defog and Heat Wave / Toxic and your spread should be 252 HP / 148 SpD / 108 Spe w/ a Calm nature.

• Zapdos > Chatot.

With the Zapdos and Skarmory core, you really don't need more bulk on the team. Something like Landorus-T or Gliscor would be different but Mandibuzz definitely won't be doing much for you and you don't have a mega evolution, so I would suggest replacing that with Mega Gyarados. Mega Charizard Y is also an option but in my opinion Mega Gyarados with Rest, Sleep Talk, Dragon Dance and Waterfall fits better, since you have Honchkrow to deal with Psychic types.

• Mega Gyarados > Mandibuzz.

Hawlucha is a pretty cool Pokemon but not really the best option on Flying, so I would recommend replacing it with Thundurus which is a strong wallbreaker and helps against opposing Flying teams as well as Water-types.

• Thundurus > Hawlucha.

I could say the same about Staraptor, it's a cool Pokemon but there are better options on Flying. I would recommend Landorus-T to be your Choice Scarf user. It can get momentum with U-Turn, spam Earthquake, hit opposing Flying-types with Stone Edge and Knock Off the foe's item which is especially useful against Normal.

• Landorus-T > Staraptor.

I will include the sets down below, but keep in mind Flying has a lot of great options, so you can use Landorus-I as your special wallbreaker and Togekiss as your Choice Scarf user, it comes down to what you find better.

Hi!

You have to give descriptions when posting an RMT for each of your pokemon (i.e, why you chose it, what it does, moves, etc) to help raters rate.

Hello DNASTiSentry , and welcome to Smogon!

Unfortunately, this RMT is currently not following the rules which can be found in the RMT Resource Thread; specifically, this thread violates rule #4, because you lack sufficient descriptions for each Pokemon on your team. As such, I am afraid that I will have to lock this thread for the time being. If you would like this thread to be reopened, feel free to PM me with your updated RMT, and I would be happy to reopen this thread for you. If you need help making an RMT up to the required standards, I recommend that you carefully read the RMT Resource Thread and check out other RMTs from the Team Showcase and RMT Archive for some examples.

Good luck with your team, and have a nice day!
