I'm kind of new to team building so this could be really terrible, but I hope it isn't that bad to work with.

Quite decent. However, I would like to question the Choice Band on Goodra. When you have Assault Vest, a colourful movepool and a gigantic Special Defense stat with some investment, it feels wrong to use Choice Band.
I can understand you're making use of Sap Sipper though, and in this case your team looks very good. Be warned though, some games are uphill: Mono-Fighting, Mono-Ice, adversary Mono-Dragon with more luck on landing Draco Meteor / a Scarf Pokemon will win against you, almost all the time.
You may need to use Scarf on a Pokemon. Kyurem-Black looks like a good candidate for it.

The reason for the band on Goodra is because it did a good job of taking hits while dealing a lot of damage at the same time. If it would be more reasonable and helpful to use an Assault Vest on it, I will change it. Also, thanks for the tip on using a scarf on one of my Pokemon

Answer 1

Here are some pokemon that will destroy your whole team.

Weavile
Item: Life Orb
- Ice Shard/Icicle Crash
- Knock Off
- Poison Jab
- Sword Dance
He would sweep your whole team because he is faster than all of your Pokemon.

Clefable
Item: Leftovers
- Thunder wave
- Moonblast
- Calm Mind
- Wish
Clefable walls every team at some point but he would also destroy your team because you have no counter to him besides flash cannon on Kingdra.

Ferrothorn
Item: Rocky Helmet
- Leech Seed
- Toxix
- Gyro Ball
- Stealth rock
He Physically walls your team and hitting him would hurt you as well so you need a special attacker that can use flamethrower.

I could go on and on but using Mono-Type teams makes your whole team weak to a certain type. You should ditch the mono-type team and make a well rounded team.

Recommendation -
Goodra
Nature: Modest
Item: Assault Vest
EVs: Max HP and Max Special Attack and give the rest to Speical Defense.
- Sludge Bomb - Clefable Counter!
- Flamethrower - Ferrothorn Counter
- Ice Beam - Landorus Counter
- Dragon Pulse - Dragon Counter + STAB

This will wall and sweep your opponents whole team! He is bulky and a special sweeper and he has been helping my team so much.

good luck!

Comments

Yes but he still has nothing against Weavile. She literally shreds his team to pieces.

>>ParryAugust: You should ditch the mono-type team and make a well rounded team.
that's the point of monotype. He plays 6 dragons, his opponents will play 6 fires, waters, grasses, electrics, fairies, steels... it's mono VS mono, and Dragon is quite good in this environment.

Dealing with Weavile is easy. Replace earth power on Kyurem with iron head.
