okay i'm playing drayanos volt white 2 mod. (i don't like to call it a "hack", when people mod pc games like skyrim and fallout, they don't call them hacks....)
in this mod, he changed all the npc trainers to have perfect iv pokemons with competitive movesets.
and he also made it possible to catch all 649 pre-gen 6 pokemons
after about 400 hours of gameplay, i finally managed to "catch" get them all, using pokeballs in game and meeting them in the wild and in their various spots. "pokemon, gotta hack em' all!", he game is technically a hacked version of pokemon with all the pkemons seeded into the wild so you can catch them "legit" without pokegen.
i'm new to competitive pokemon and i spent days researching smogon and breeding eggs in game and the team i came up with was this.
i'm able to beat most of all of drayanos npc teams with this team but i know it is flawed, in many battles i'm forced to use revives and full restores to win. my weak link seems to be the gothitelle but i can't bring myself to get rid of her.
i was trying to use only pokemons i bred "legit"(i realize the irony of legit pokemon in a hacked rom" meaning, only used pokemons i caught in game and bred, not pokegenned...although i did pokegen a foreign ditto for myself...
also, i don't use legendaries, although i know many of these are in smogon's Uber tier

well, thats my team
i realize its mostly glass cannons, and if they don't OHKO their opponent then they get OHKOed every time....and drayano loves sturdy abilitiy and focus sash, just about every opponents in his game has at least one sturdy and one focus sash. he also loves the air balloon, almost every guy has multiple pokemons weak agains ground but carrying air balloon... many times more than 1 breaking item clause...
also, 90% of his pokemons have ice beam which makes it virtually impossible to keep any dragon alive.
I also realize that half my team is weak against ground, rocks and electric, i had hoped to counter electric moves by switching in lanturn. i had also hoped to counter ground with salamence and metagross was to counter rock.
I also had a mamoswine but it felt weak
and i have in storage

carrying
leftovers (there is an item clause conflict with lanturn)

confuse ray
this one is powerful but gimmicky, and i got annoyed because it take a long time to set up. also the item conflicted with my lanturn.
these were the only pokemons i had the patience to actually breed "pseudo-legit" without pokegen. i'll most likely just pokegen any future ones because breeding is such a pain.
any advice would be appreciated, like I said i'm new to competiitve pokemon and some of the movesets on smogon don't make sense to me and i don't know what pokemons to synergize with each other.
i always seem to get caught with 3 pokemons all with a shared weakness and every time i take one out and put a different one in, i lose a weakness but gain 2 more...
