Gallade - Take out X-Scissor for Swords Dance.

Abomasnow - Don't like him. Never trained one.

Charizard - You have a special sweeper, and two of the moves are physical? Here's a good Special Sweeping Charizard.

Charizard@Choice Specs
Modest Nature
Trait: Blaze
Evs: 252 Sp. Attack/252 Speed
~Overheat
~Dragon Pulse
~Focus Blast
~HP Electric

Garchomp - Wow. You runied that Garchomp. Here's the best Chomp you want to use if you're playing on Wi-Fi.

Garchomp@Chice Scarf/Band
Adamant Nature
Trait: Sand Veil
Evs: 252 Attack/252 Speed/4 Hp
~Outrage
~Stone Edge
~Earthquake
~Fire Fang

Rotom - Never trained one.

Empoleon - I take it you're trying to run a Physical Sweeper?

Empoleon@Life Orb
Adamant Nature
Trait: Torrent
Evs: 252 Attack/252 Speed/4 Hp
~Avalanche
~Waterfall
~Swords Dance
~Drill Peck

I give it a 7/10. With some work, this could be a dangerous team. I recommend taking out Rotom and putting in Electvire.

thanks!

i highly reccomend abomasnow, hes a good distraction while you bring out the real weapon.
Overheat is not a very good move, it lowers your sp atk. i dont like that much.

Garchomp ....im not touching him. hes very special, a gift from a friend i rarely see. ive left him as he is only increasing his level, hes never failed me yet.

Rotom are very hard to train and are very powerful if you learn how to use them correctly! ^^

Empoleon is my starter!!

I'm borrowing a computer, so I'll keep this simple.

Gallade
Job~ Opener
Moves~ Leafblade, Psycho Cut, Close Combat, X-Scissor
Item~Focus Band
Gallade is a great opener and is a tough pokemon, but really isn't one for sweeping. If you truly insist, Swords Dance would help out plenty. Night Slash is the better move when compared to X-Scissor because of its synergy with Close Combat. Life Orb, leftovers, or even a choice band given the current set would help out a fair bit more than the focus band.

Abomasnow
Job~ Wall
Moves~ Giga Drain, Ice Beam, Shadow Ball, Water Pulse
Item~ Rose Incense
lulz. Abomasnow can be more closely defined as a tank given the right set; he is possibly the farthest thing from a wall and this isn't a set capable of tanking. Protect, Blizzard, and Leftovers are almost mandatory, and Wood Hammer is strong enough to make up for the recoil.

Charizard
Job~ Special Sweeper
Moves~ Dragon Pulse, Flare Blitz, Fly, Rock Slide
Item~Charcoal
3 physical attacks on a special sweeper? Meh, I'll look past that typo. No matter what set you use, (unless, of course, you use the actual special sweeper set), Salac Berry is probably the best option for it, allowing it to attempt a sweep with high-speed high-power fire attacks.

Garchomp
Job~ Physical Sweeper
Moves~ Dragon Rush, Dig, Poison Jab, Crunch
Item~Razor Claw
The most consistant Garchomp is ChoiceChomp, having two varients: Scarf and Band. Earthquake is a given with ANY Garchomp set, and Dragon Rush is easily trumped by the more accurate Dragon Claw. There are other very powerful variants of Garchomp, but with a choice item it's very difficult for even the most experienced battler to take it out without making at least one sacrifice. Poison Jab is a bad choice for a move due to little coverage, and the fact taht what does end up getting hurt gets hit much harder by a STAB attack. A better move would be Fire Blast, Stone Edge, Fire Fang, Draco Meteor, or Swords Dance.

Rotom
Job~ Status Afflicter
Moves~ Disharge, Ominous Wind, Dark Pulse, Toxic
Item~Spooky Plate
Rotom can be an annoying little p***k, but he needs Confuse Ray and a means of paralysis in order to be such. Toxic really isn't nessisary, or effective, on rotom anyway; an easy move to use in it's stead is Will-o-Wisp, which can be just as annoying and quite crippling when timed right.

Empoleon
Job~ Ultimate Weapon
Moves~ Metal Claw, Surf, Ice Beam, Pluck
Iteem~Splash Plate
Empoleon is a scary thing at the end of a Baton Pass Chain, but is otherwise mostly a joke. He can tank like no-one else, but apart from that has a rather decent special attack stat. I can't remember whether or not it can learn Grass Knot, but it would help your set more than Metal Claw is currently.

Please leave comments!
6/10, good type balance, but mediocre movesets and a lack of a strong physical defense.

Gallade
Job~ Opener
Moves~ Leafblade, Psycho Cut, Close Combat, X-Scissor
Item~Focus Band

I probably wouldn't put a Focus Band on him. Probably an item that makes it so your crit rate is higher or something, also replace X-Scissor for Night Slash, it is more useful and also has a high crit rate.

Abomasnow
Job~ Wall
Moves~ Giga Drain, Ice Beam, Shadow Ball, Water Pulse
Item~ Rose Incense

I just don't like this pokemon, despite the fact that it learns many strong attacks it has just way to many weaknesses.

Charizard
Job~ Special Sweeper
Moves~ Dragon Pulse, Flare Blitz, Fly, Rock Slide
Item~Charcoal

Why is it a Special Sweeper if most of its moves are attack moves? I am just confused by this.

Garchomp
Job~ Physical Sweeper
Moves~ Dragon Rush, Dig, Poison Jab, Crunch
Item~Razor Claw

No EQ? I don't quite understand what exactly you are going for here. Seeing that EQ is practically the only move you will need.

Rotom
Job~ Status Afflicter
Moves~ Disharge, Ominous Wind, Dark Pulse, Toxic
Item~Spooky Plate

I like this pokemon really I do, but it needs Confuse Ray, if its job is to annoy others then there is nothing more annoying then Confusion.

Empoleon
Job~ Ultimate Weapon
Moves~ Metal Claw, Surf, Ice Beam, Pluck
Iteem~Splash Plate

Pluck? What is that doing on him? Metal Claw should also go, this pokemon doesn't have the best move set though so it is hard to pick for him.
