Ok so I have:

Adamant Huge Power Azumarill

Aqua Jet
Play Rough
Belly Drum
Aqua Ring


Modest Infiltrator Noibat
Dragon Pulse
Boomburst
Air Slash
Flamethrower


Jolly Speed Boost Scolipede
Pursuit
Rollout
Toxic Spikes
Steamroller

I haven't really messed with their moves and I dunno what to do, I've added good ones on there but idk.. I just dunno where to go from here for a decent team just to have fun with. Thinking of making a Blissey just to have a healer and another silly egg-shaped tank but for SpDef instead. Any suggestions would be great.

Also my item game is lacking, what would be good to put on these fellas?

My battle experience is just fighting my roommate with our in-game teams, so.

Scolipede should probably be Protect/(Toxic) Spikes/Baton Pass/Megahorn and hold a Focus Sash, Noivern should consider Draco Meteor instead of Dragon Pulse, and Azumarill should consider Superpower instead of Aqua Ring

Blissey is a SpDef tank, you're going to want a physical tank on that team.

vvv Oh oops I misread that :blush:.

That's what I mean, Azumarill has really high regular Def, so I want Blissey to balance it out. Also sweet, none of those are egg moves I don't have!

Thanks for the advice!

Any suggestions for compatible teammates are also encouraged. All the Pokemon I really really like aren't yet available until the Pokebank.

Edit: Haha I can totally see how you misread that. But yeah I meant Azumarill is my Def silly egg tank and Blissey would be a silly egg SpDef tank.

Well, there are glowing exceptions which you pointed out. The classist sore losers just grate on my nerves. Particularly after perhaps the 20th time of having it pointed out that it is impossible they could be beaten by such lowborn garbage.

In doubles and triples, if you use Protect, are you still affected by friendly Heal Pulse and/or Aromatherapy?

Anybody who hasn't tried out Adaptability Crawdaunt really should. Its Aqua Jet is stronger than Azumarill. Both Crabhammer and Knock Off have been buffed and it has access to Swords Dance. Water and Dark are such good STABs that you don't even have to run Superpower anymore.

I've been using one paired with bulky Scolipede and if I manage to pass a sub and boost it is unstoppable.

I was considering it but I'm so Dark & Water heavy as it stands that a Crawdaunt isn't very appealing. The game pretty quickly gives you so many good options for those elements pretty early on. I think having a Greninja doesn't help much either.

So does Boomburst get Chatot anywhere near viable? It doesn't get Scrappy, but it has about the same special attack as Exploud and quite a bit more speed.

. . . This is kind of terrifying.

It doesn't have the same special attack, but instead has slightly higher. If you can baton pass it into a Speed Boost and a Substitute simultaneously, it might actually make a surprisingly effective gimmick cleanup.

Its pitiful defenses probably mean any priority move will end it, but it could be worth a try.

Diggersby is basically a goon so you'd think he'd endear himself to people on this forum more.

Last night I was trying to think of the ultimate Goon Pokemon team. Goodra, Diggersby, and Snorlax would have to be on it but I'm not sure what the last 3 would be.

No he's got Huge Power, meaning he's got huge attack and some great STAB moves. Duder's pretty alright.
