Just wanted some feedback, I've been thinking of a newer way to get into Pokemon. And my friends have suddenly gotten better so I wanted to start fresh. The thing is I have a team of 5 Pokemon decided so far but I would like to know what other Pokemon might go well for this team?
Charizard - Serious
(( Powerhouse ))
Alakazam
(( thinking ))
Sableye - Timid/Jolly
(( Annoyance ))
Wigglytuff - Adamant
(( powerhouse ))
Poliwrath - Adamant
(( Powerhouse, Maybe something else ))
Any Suggestions for the 6th pokemon?

Not to burst your enthusiasm but I honestly don't expect much from this team as it's a mediocre setup and I'm honestly not saying that just to be mean. This team is heavily exposed to Electric, Flying, Dragon and Dark-types, all of which are common offensive attacks. A nice physically-defensive Bronzong covers up 3 of those holes (Flying, Dark and Dragon), and with Calm Mind in it's moveset, it should be able to scare off a decent amount of Pokemon who would try to use any STAB Electric-type attacks against your team (not as great as say a Blissey but it still gets the job done). Just make sure Bronzong has Levitate as it's ability or else it's trash. I'd also recommend NOT using Sableye strictly on the grounds that it's just a terrible competitive Pokemon. If you simply must use a Dark/Ghost type, at least use Spiritomb. While not the best of options, Spiritomb has proven helpful to me in the past and is guaranteed to be more useful than a Sableye.
Oh and for Alakazam... go with a Timid or Modest nature, fully EV trained in Special Attack and Speed. Nothing else. Best of luck against your friends, sir.

Haha thanks for the advice, but your a little late on it, I am indeed switching the Sableye out. And have already gotten the Alakazam with it's Modest Nature. The team Isn't being built for competition, the team is more or less for beating my friends. . . and sadly I have no access to a second DS so a Bronzong seems out of my reach for the time being. The team has actually changed greatly just over this last day. Not in the pokemon themselves but in the move sets. Plus I am not worried to much about dragon types themselves, I prefer not to use them because their are too many disadvantages that go with their advantages. I also dislike myself using any pokemon even slightly considered Legendary. I like to keep the game straight and fair. The use of items and such works fine, but all me and my friends never use legendary's. Meaning Spiritomb is not on my list.

Spiritomb has pain spilt as a recovery move. where Sableye has prio healing with recover and prio will-o- whisp and taunt, It needs good teammates to do it's job. My team goes like this Sableye @ Jolly w/ Leftovers Arcanine @ Adamant w/Air Balloon Kingdra @ Adamant w/ Life Orb Ferrotorn @ Adamant w/ Rocky Helmet Gastrodon @ Quiet w/ leftovers Espeon @ Modest w/ leftovers

What kind of Poliwrath is it ? DW or regular ? You could replace that with Toxicroak

For now Poliwrath works. At least until I get a Bronzong.

Kyrenx Lol, there are significantly better Prankster users. Sableye support is gimmicky at best and holds no real value out of the UU tier. Prio WoW while helpful, is VERY predictable on Sableye. Prio Healing does nothing if Sableye is KO'd in one hit thanks to it's low HP & Defenses and Taunt is only good for delaying a setup but without said decent HP and Defense stats, lacks any real use except revenge(?) taunting after another one of your Pokemon has already been dropped (in most cases, its usually too late to taunt at that point) and lead taunting (with of course again is predictable). Sableye is garbage out of UU and even then Heracross slaps him around there. Just saying. That's why i run Espeon too. and amazingly my Sableye does well in OU and UU. most teams I've faced don't have a counter to it. and I can set up several W-o-W on the opossing team. Sadly Whimsicott gets hit harder than Sableye as does Riolu and Murkrow
