*comtempletes on using one my own team*
Do eet, once you get a decent move on it like Aerial Ace it can start wrecking things and once you evolve it it tanks stuff like crazy. My Altaria is awesome.
I learned of what Pokemon are not available at all in ORAS or ones that are only available after getting the National Dex. Ruined my planned teams. I'd rather use mons that I can get throughout the game regularly.
On the bright side it gave me an excuse to use Magnezone again. I love that thing.
I've never tried Sceptile, Gardevior, Sharpedo, or Dusclops on a regular adventure and I have to say they are pretty good. If you want to use Sharpedo I highly recommend trading one in fron X and Y since you can't get a Carvahna until you beat Norman and therefore can't use it against Flannery.
However I desperately need someone to trade me a Reaper Cloth so I can evolve my Dusclops.
