Ninjask wants Substitute. It buys you time to get more attack and speed boosts.

Charizard only gets Blaze as his ability.

Scizor wants Superpower and X-Scissor.

Scizor wants to forget Iron Head and learn Superpower.

And Charizard does not want a 252SpA/252Spe/4HP spread with an Adamant nature.

Ninjask wants at least 24 Speed EVs to not get tricked a Scarf by Trick Azelf.

You'se gots a water weakness. And a Fire weakness. I'd give Scizor HPGround over Brick Break, to cover Fire, and because Bullet Punch covers what BB does.

Wait what? Scizor has base 55 Special Attack which he's not going to harm any Fire-type bar Heatran with, and lack of SpA investment wouldn't help either. In fact, without investment you won't even 2HKO Heatran, and even with max SpA investment you still can't OHKO (unless you have Life Orb, then you have a 2/3 chance) Heatran let alone any other Fire-type.

Plus, Fire-types not named Heatran and Infernape are uncommon anyway, and Heatran is weak to fighting.
The (bigger) Water weakness won't be helped by HP Ground either.

Role: Baton Pass to Scizor

You're holding Focus Sash. Adding bulk is kinda pointless. You'll want to put some Speed, although you have Protect.

-Scizor@Life Orb
Adamant(+Atk,-SAtk)
Ability: Technician
Bullet Punch
Swords Dance
Brick Break
X-Scissor
252 Hp/252 Atk/4 Spd

Role: SD Physical Sweeper

If you're already Baton Passing SD to him, why make him hold SD again? Give him another option for coverage. I recommend Pursuit or Aerial Ace. Also I hear 252 HP EVs on Scizor is bad, because the HP becomes divisible by 4. Use 248 HP EVs instead.


-Alakazam@Choice Specs
Timid(+Spd,-Atk)
Ability:Inner Focus
Focus Blast
Psychic
Calm Mind
Recover
4Hp/252 SAtk/252 Spd

Say what? Choice Specs Calm Mind? Choice Specs Recover? You'll want Signal Beam.

Pretty good Team Blitz. I can't wait to play you, =3

You're Scizor, and Milotic remind me so much of Vector's. :)

When do you think we'll be able to play? :p

Thanks, whenever you want. I'm up for it.


VCG:
I put it on him because most of the local kids that play, found a way around my ninjask strategy.

And I realized that mistake when I tried to use Alakazam in a match lol thanks for pointing it out though. Anyone got any ideas what to replace choice specs with?
