Huh, well, I've finally gotten around to posting my team. For those of you unaware, this is Mark J. Elite 4 #1.
Team:
Gyarados: Dragon Dance Waterfall Ice Fang Stone Edge
Skarmory: Roost Brave Bird Stealth Rock Whirlwind
Ninjask: Swords Dance Baton Pass Substitute X-Scissor
Yanmega: Detect Hypnosis Bug Buzz Air Slash
Zapdos: Thunderbolt Roost Heat Wave Light Screen
Gallade: Leaf Blade Psycho Cut Night Slash Close Combat
Alternates:
Starraptor: Brave Bird Close Combat U-Turn Return
Gliscor: Earthquake Roost Knock Off Stone Edge
Yeah, I'm running on a time-limit, or I'd justifiy some of my reasons. My biggest issue seems to be a lack of SpD. (Which I attempt to remedy with Zapdos's Light Screen) and lack of a rapid-spinner, as stealth rock is a bit of a threat to flying types.
So... tear appart my team.

use a spinner as your alternate? (you need a spinner)
togekiss could give you some help at SpD
but yeah.....having a team of a type that guarantees a minimum of 12.5% from SRs no matter what the other type is.....not good, which is why I avoided this type lol

I was initially like "who is this clyde guy?" I'm glad you answered my question.
I agree with BAMM, stealth rock destroys your team and you need to do something about it. I'd suggest Starmie or Donphan. Starmie because it's awesome and Donphan because it has electric immunity on a team heavily weak to it. I'm slightly surprised I saw no Togekiss or Salamence. I remember Togekiss being good. I think Ninjask is a little out of place with what I'm suggesting (because only gyarados really benefits from it) and I'd switch it for flinchhax Togekiss. Zapdos is good, Gyarados is good, Yanmega is good, Skarmory is okay on this team. It's got the defence and typing to be switched in frequently and sets rocks well.
Welcome to the boards, and good luck.

Yeah, I was talking with people at the Brawl Tourney tonight and I'm gonna swap something for a Togekiss. Salamence, on the other hand, never really occured to me, I might have to take a look at that...
Donphan for Gallade is probably a good idea, Gallade just happens to be a favorite of mine.
