Welcome to Smogon! Take a moment to read the Introduction to Smogon for a run-down on everything Smogon, and make sure you take some time to read the global rules.

He's obviously vsing against this team, otherwise he wouldn't ask.
Anyway, Mixmence could deal a good amount to this team, but Duggy outspeeds.
TORKOAL: Learn Curse at level 12
FARFETCH'D: Breed male TORKOAL with female FARFETCH'D
SKARMORY: Breed male FARFETCH'D with female SKARMORY
Breed a male Torkoal (or Bibarel family in Platinum) with Curse with a female Farfetch'd. Get a male Farfetch'd baby with Curse and breed it with a female Skarmory.
Easiest way is to breed Curse into Farfetch'd (any ground group that learns Curse, Smeargle is the fastest way), then breed Farfetch'd with Skarmory.
EDIT: Beaten :P.
Wow! Ok, thanks a bunch!
A Lanturn with ice beam would do very well against every pokemon except Jirachi...
Because Ou is jammed with steels which resist psychic. Poison types are almost non existant and they are all killed with eq or for the floating ones tb or some other attacks so psychic really only hits weezing hard. I recommend surf but others might say hp. And the only Ou poke that this is viable without hidden power lucario doesnt need psychic.
Do people think King's Rock is a good choice for a held item on Paraflinch Togekiss?
It seems practical to me; since Roost is on the moveset to give some HP recovery, instead of leftovers; but the Smogon article doesn't recommend it.
Any thoughts or am I missing out on exactly what King's Rock does as a held item?

No just 2 or 3 and it's random
King's Rock does not increase the flinch rate of a move that already has a secondary effect, if memory serves me right.
Maybe I'm misreading things but the Smogon page and the Bulbapedia page for King's Rock/Razor Fang lists Air Slash as a move that receives a boost from those held items.
Aura Sphere, the other common move on the paraflinch moveset, is also listed as receiving a boost. That could help I suppose.
So if I were to repeat the cycle, would I possibly end up with all 31 in the new pokemon?
Also, are egg moves able to be transferred to the pokemon of the same species if one of them has the egg move, or do both parents have to have it?

[edit] beaten :/
...all 31? like 6 31s? If you're crazy lucky. I bred a male Houndoom with 3 31s with a female with 2 31s and got a baby with 5 31s and a 22 once. Stupid thing had early bird though...But it only got 2 or 3 of those 31s from the parents the other 2 were just luck.
Egg moves are given from males. They don't have to be the same species, they just have to be in the right egg group.
Here, read this it helped me...http://www.legendarypokemon.net/breeding
Maybe I was just dumb, but I couldn't find such a simple yet comprehensive guide to breeding anywhere else. :D
Given the ideal job for an Ampharos, I'd say Vista Lighthouse.
When are the Shoddy stats for June gonna be posted?
I would like to know if anyone thinks Razor Fang/King's Rock on a paraflinch set isn't a good idea.
Or Imprison them first. But that would be stupid as Taunting prevents more.
Or you can predict them and use an attack forcing them to waste a turn.
Like everyone else said, it would be useless as it doesn't add to the move's flinch chance unless it's 0 at first.
Make sure you use taunt first.
