Or maybe it was the lava plume in the double battle against the ice leader? I think that's also a factor.

And even then, I think a bit of luck against the Hax Queen is welcomed :P

I have yet to see a post from you that wasn't extremely rude or pointlessly aggressive.

As to the OP: you have really defensive pokemon that resist most of the gyms/hard battles so far and your moves hit everyone in doubles which is nice.

I'm not going to lie, bocoom, your behavior needs to improve. Respect is the first rule of our community. Your aggression is unwarranted, as is referring to any post as 'stupid'.

it was mostly a smart ass joke but it is hard making those kind of jokes on the internet without sounding like an ass hole so i can see why you guys think this.

so my topic became something just to tell someone to be nicer hmmmmmmmmmmm..................

so time for me to reiterate why i posted it it like i did

i posted it like i did because i don't consider myself good a the games other then just being able to get through them (hell i did not even understand how stab worked until i read the book in the second gym) so i did not think my team was that good mainly i never had a problem with things like needing to grind or over leveling the only time i even grinded was before Corey i think and thats all i ever did and given how many people who are much better at the games then me so i was just trying to get some feed back which where i live i dont ever get any so i just wanted to see what people thought anyway any advice or help is still welcomed even if its mean feedback is still feedback

im surprised nobody has said anything about toxic spikes? i literally have destroyed every gym leader and important battle except for Shade, Aya, Corey and level 75 Garchomp man by luring out and Ko'ing said poison types, then laying down the pain. looking at your team Rusty though our pokemon are different i think we used similar movepools and tactics. Cheers for not just relying on brute force!
Sunny Day is also a key move against the last few battles in episode 8. No need to complain about Hax when blizzard accuracy is reduced to a reasonable level.

As for team recomendations if you replace Zangoose and Donphan your left with Venasaur, Drapion, Gardevior and Magmar. Two Ground weaknesses with no resists and no Rock resists stick out first to me followed by the fact Venasaur, Gardevior and Drapion are kinda bulky pokemon that can abuse the t-spikes. I feel like Mudkip would be great adition to replace Donphan as you maintain all the power of the ground type, great synergy (3 grass resists, provides key Rock & Fire resists), while gaining a great tank, phazer and potential stealth rock setter. For the last slot ideally Rotom would be perfect as electric types are great t-spikes abusers and he is one of few electric types not weak to ground but if he isnt available then i would go for either Tynamo or magnet rise Magnemite. Mag comes with the added bonus of crushing steel types that may resist T-spikes though Magmar and Mudkip (if you go that way) got that covered.

Thank u for your advice and thoughts

I have been thinking about mudkip as a replacement for donphan the only reason I an thinking of switching out donphan is because it is really slow its speed like at 60 so I need something faster

And with the other tynamo seems like it would be fun haven't used one in any game yet so that should be fun if i can find one that is

I'll stop bugging you after this haha but if speed is desired Flygon or Gligar would probably the best ground type available, comes with extra ground immunity over mudkip!

Huh. I didn't notice Tynamo was available already... Not that I have ANY idea where it is, but Eelektross might actually be a good idea, since it has good bulk, no weaknesses, and can learn quite a few moves for coverage. Magneton/zone has been proven to be pretty good by now, although I don't think we'll be facing excessive Steel-types anytime soon (probably going to eat my words) so that might not be an issue.

Personally seconding Flygon- I have one as well and I feel like had I gotten a better nature (read: remembered to save before I got Trapinch) it'd be so much more useful. Gligar would be pretty good as well, but I think you might want to hold off on that until a Razor Fang is available.

you can bug away the more you do the more stuff i get to think about (dont know if thats a good thing though) though i not after pure speed i was meaning that my donphan just is slow so ant thing fast would be useful and i am a fan of bulky pokemon for some reason that i dont know so i probably would go for mudkip mainly it would take me to long to get enough coins for trapinch i am horrible at the game corner mainly voltorb flip the slots or easy just takes along time.

right i am quiet sure you have no clue where tynamo is just like i have no clue (its not like we have an in game device that tells us where pokemon are found if you can get them in the wild)... and most likely u will end up eating your words at least from what i seen on some of the post on the forms
