My suggestion is redo the movesets. They arent all bad, but specifically samurott. Do you REALLY need 3 water moves? haha. If a grass pokemon went up against your samurott, you might get owned haha.

Maybe....

Aqua Jet
Surf
Ice Beam
Grass Knot

it also depends on their natures though, you should probably use them to your advantage

Not sure if this will help but for your Gurdurr, unless you plan to evolve it to Conkeldurr, you should replace Low Kick with either Drain Punch, Mach Punch, or Hammer Arm and Strength for Return. Not sure about Poison Jab but you could keep it or replace it with Payback.

For nature, either Adamant or Brave would do unless you want some speed to outrun an even slower Pokemon

Hmm, I've set up a evolve-trade thing with someone so Gurdurr is going to be Conkeldurr. Should I still use those moves you gave me, or is there a separate good moveset for Conkeldurr?

By the way, I think the new moveset for Samurott is going to help a lot. I just have a feeling. Hahaha

It all depends since Conkeldurr is really slow with a base speed of 45 and the moves I've listed are just some that should help when attacking. If you have ability Guts then you could try equipping it with a Flame Orb and have Drain Punch to that you'll do extra damage and recover some health in the process and Facade to double the power since it is burned.

If you go with that strategy use poison orb instead of Flame orb. When a pokemon is burned it's attack is halved

But if Conkeldurr has the Guts ability he won't have its attack halved from the burn effect and this only for those with Guts ability and not sure if holding a Poison Orb will inflict severe poison, Toxic effect, but if you have a Sheer Force then equip it with a Life Orb to get the extra boosted attack.

Conkeldurr has Sheer Force. I've equipped it with Life Orb. Will it still be getting the HP-cost effect of the Life Orb?

For some reason Sheer Force negates the HP cost effect from Life Orb so you should be good.

Strange, it still loses damage when I equipped the Life Orb

I think I missed read the information but here is what it says at serebii.net.
"Sheer Force also has the ability of negating the recoil of the item Life Orb when it's used on a move which Sheer Force affects."

So that would mean the moves that you are using which don't have any "may also" lowering, raising, status effect, or flinching as secondary effects on your moves.

So I'm guessing that Life Orb on Conkeldurr is a no-go if I don't have any of those moves that have that type of secondary effect It puts a downer on things, but I think I may manage with the moveset that I have:

Conkeldurr:
Hammer Arm
Poison Jab (Can't learn Payback whatsoever)
Return
Stone Edge

I checked around and sad to say but Sheer Force doesn't power up normal moves.

Stone edge should be boosted. As poison jab.

Awesome. That's going to be helpful.

Anyways, I've recently acquired a Tropius and Drifblim. Both seem very powerful Pokemon and I was thinking about adding them to my Tourney team. Any thoughts?
