    So far my team is: Dnite, Ttar, Starmie, Articuno, Scizor, and Alakazam. I'm wondering what i should change there to cover something to fight scizors.

    Put fire punch on your dnite, it's a good counter for scizor. You should probably get a fire pokemon though to deal with steel types, I would recommend arcanine as it's easily obtainable.

    Yeah, Im wondering what I should replace starmie with and if i should replace alakazam with machamp/clefable.
    I'm learning towards houndoom over starmie since of nasty plot+flamethrower, but idk.

    I would recommend replacing articuno with a fire type, as even though it is a legendary, it can be easily one shot by any rock type move as they are 4x effective. As for a fire type, although houndoom can be popular, it's defensive stats are incredibly weak and it can be one shot extremely easily, and you may not even be able to get a nasty plot in before it dies. Starmie is an extremely good water - psychic type so there's no real reason to replace it unless you don't like the Pokemon itself, in which case you'd probably need another water type to replace it. Your team is overall well balanced and has some really good Pokemon in it though so even if you didn't change anything it can be a decent team. :)

    I personally like Alakazam, not as a tank but just as a full on attacker. It's max speed is 372 so itll outspeed most Pokemon and it can do a fair bit of damage. However if you've got psychic type covered with Starmie, then it's not a big deal if you do replace it.
