Please read the "New RMT Guidelines" thread. I will help you once you put this in proper format because I don't want to read that.

Is this better?

 

[IceArrow]

Thanks, so Trick Room is a good strategy in triples but you are not using it correctly. The main reason Trick Room is a great strategy is because of Rock Slide. I would suggest completely changing the team. The first Pokemon you need to use is Tyranitar, the best Rock Slide abuser in the game. Second, Amoonguss is amazing on the team because he has amazing support moves to help Rock Sliders. Then Bronzong, the only pokemon I'd keep but use a different moveset. Well instead of talking all post it so you can see it for yourself.

for tyranitar i don't have a chople berry atm though i might have one in the dream world.
just need to add white to my GL account for slowbro w/ Regenerator and trade with my white for hitmontop
everything else isn't a problem...

 

[IceArrow]

Awesome, if you can't get Chople Berry then Rock Gem is a great substitute.

lol@fireblast for ttar, fire punch is much more reliable
also your team needs some options outside of trick room, if they stop your set up then you are practically finished

 

[IceArrow]

Fire Blast is way better than Fire Punch. You never need to have someone prevent you from setting up in Triples since Amoonguss has Rage Powder.

 

[AtotheZ]

Fireblast is a god awful option for t-tar in triples. Using lower accuracy moves can fly in singles, but for triples and doubles I wouldn't use them unless they guarantee moves that normally don't KO.

And amoonguss isn't even that hard to stop. You forgot about spread moves, (prankster) taunt, fakeout support, etc.

The other problem with your team is the lack of protect that makes you very susceptible to fake out support (any fake out user outspeeds amoonguss' rage powder), and forces you to switch if you're threatened.

On top of that none of your pokemon barring ttar and gigalith and do much in trick room to make the 5 turns worth while.

 

[IceArrow]

Rock slide will consistently destroy them because of the flinches. Also Fire Blast is for more SpA coverage. Fake out does nothing to literally every Pokemon on the team.

Also Amoonguss' weaknesses are Fire, Ice, Bug, Flying, and Psychic. I wonder if Rock Slide destroys 4 of those types and a pursuit user takes care of the rest.

 

[AtotheZ]

fake out is plus 3 priority, and every fake out user in the game is faster than amoonguss. aka they have the choice to fake out anyone on the field.

relying on a 20% flinch rate is silly too
