1. Weavile @ Focus Sash
Adamant Jolly 252 Speed / 252 Attack / 4 HP Pressure ~Swords Dance ~Ice Punch ~Night Slash ~Aerial Ace Brick Break
Brick Break hits wayyyy more stuff than ariel ace does, which is just heracross, really. It also at leats helps you put some kind of dent in Blissey because your team is mainly special. Jolly is the better nature since you want to outspeed stuff like dugtrio, alakazam, starmie, infernape etc... and Swords Dance will already give you really high attack.
2. Latios @ Leftovers
Relaxed Timid
200 HP/252 Sp.Def/56 Def 252 HP, 252 Speed, 4 Sp. Attack Levitate ~ Calm Mind ~Thunder Wave Dragon Pulse ~Psychic Thunderbolt ~Recover
Thunder Wave is practically useless on such a fast pokemon w/ a fast team, so Dragon Pulse is good for a powerful hit on everything except steels, and that is where thunderbolt comes into play as a good neutral hit on them. Psychic isn't the best move when you already have STAB dragon pulse because Dragon Pulse will hit Poison types on their low Sp. Def stat hard enough, and thunderbolt's coverage is much greater and more beneficial. I don't know why you have its nature as relaxed, unless you caught it in game, but Timid is the better nature if you have access to it. If you can change the EV spread, for a bulky Latios 252 HP, 252 Speed, 4 Sp. Attack is the best option, as it gives you good physical survivability as well as overall bulk, and allows you to outpace numerous threats.
3. Raikou @ Choice Specs ??? (didn't catch it yet. hoping for timid/modest/rash/mild/ you get the idea.) 252 Sp.Atk/252 Speed Pressure ~Thunderbolt ~Swift ~Hidden Power ~Shadow Ball
Umm... you really cannot just catch a Raikou and hope for an effective 60+ power Hidden Power as the IVs are set to roaming pokemon at the beginning of the game. I'd Suggest you just get a new pokemon in this slot, as Raikou's movepool is pretty shallow for a choice specs set and the HP it will get as well as the nature isn't guranteed to be good
Thanks! | |

| Ok. Here it goes. Weavile, needs aerial ace beacause of those haxxy double teamers. Latios is relaxed for a reason, which you gave yourself, i cannot control what nature latios i can catch. Raikou, we'll see. DJ | |

DJ Let me have a go at picking the flaws. NEVER use Swift... Haxxy Double Teamers? Have you ever heard of the Evasion Clause? Get rid of Aerial Ace and Swift for Brick Break and Maybe Signal Beam. Play Evasion Clause, and try soft resetting for the right natures. | |

| Ok let me have a go at that post. First, Do you know how to read the topic? BATTLE TOWER.= NO EVASION CLAUSE. Second, swift serve's the same purpose as aerial ace, what do you reccomend i put instead? DJ | |

DJ You may want to actually read the rules of this area next time.. *please do not post in-game teams here* Posted in this sections Rules. Battle Tower is an In Game Team, not part of a competitive Team. You don't need two Pokemon with Never Missing Moves. Just force a move out of the Comp, and then Switch. And Shock Wave would be more effective thanks to the better overall coverage. | |
