Pokémon Rate My Team

When building this team, I wanted one thing and one thing only: To check that Venomoth (3 tier ban ftw) To use Xatu. Xatu is great and is the best offensive Pokemon in the tier right now imo. I also wanted some staples from my generation 5 team, so here's what I've got so far:

I also noticed Jynx was unbanned and I had a pretty unruly water weakness, so I tacked Jynx onto the team.

Then, "I realized" that

the most significant weakness "I" have is to Ghost and Dark types, making your team fall quite easily. (Thanks Brawlfest. ily.)

So "I decided to add Poliwrath". Gives my team more resistance to Water and helps patch up a Dark weakness I have.

Yet, you still didn't patch up that 3x Ghost weakness... so... Butterfree, is that in NU? Quiver Dance and Shadow Ball. :)

You kinda succeed in your goal, though... checking Venomoth with 2 Psychics and 1 Rock and Stealth Rock. Better keep those rocks up if you can...
Is Venomoth really that big of a threath?
Don't get me wrong, I underestimated it and paid for it dearly. But 3 checks/counters? That seems slightly excessive.
Well my Uber team had three Xerneas checks -_-
If I really think it's that common, dominating or annoying, there's probably no kill like overkill... :)
I don't see it much.

I used the nub way.
I let something go to sleep.
Bring in scarf typhlosion.

GG VENEMOTH

That or I ferroseed it. :I
I'm kidding about the Venomoth thing. I just T-Wave it.
Bump btw
Well,  team is kinda not that good anymore as broken bug got banned, so maybe switch out some mons that was here for checking venomoth  especially and switch them out for something else?
None of the mons were for explicitly checking Venomoth (3 tier ban ftw) but as a joke
