^Seconding Moo's suggestion, Bisharp is definitely meant to be a sweeper, and a Sub / T-Wave / SR / Iron Head set is rather gimmicky and questionable as far as how effective it could be. The above...

This is a solid team concept, getting up hazards early, luring steels, trapping them, and proceeding to sweep with powerful Dragon-types. Here are a few suggestions to make the team run a bit...

Your lead would (as usual) depend on what your opponent has on his/her team, and what you think matches up best with the majority of the opposing Pokemon.

First off, one of the main problems I see...

I'm not set on replacing Darmanitan, since it simply hits much harder than CB Infernape, especially with the sun boost (although as you'll see later, Darmanitan can't check as many pokes as Ape, and...

I take back my initial doubt of your suggestion to incorporate Chandelure. Since I have tested it, it has worked well; albeit, my ladder rank has gone down, but that's just because I'm an...

Good idea. I ran Psychic over Psyshock just to hit defensively EV'd Hitmontop harder, but Psyshock will definitely help dealing with Roserade, which actually poses a substantial threat to this team....

BUMP. I'd really like some feedback on this team. Made a big change, and replaced Rhyperior for Offensive Rapid Spin Donphan since I desperately needed a spinner; without a spinner Darmanitan is very...

All of your attackers are physical, I would switch your mono-attacking SD Shaymin to a Life Orb or Leftovers Variant. Or maybe even Offensive Roserade to sleep stuff and absorb Toxic Spikes.

That gives you 3 Ice weaks with no resist, I don't think that's the right route to go down. Also Specs DM OHKOs Roob as does LO Draco Meteor from Sazzy, so I wouldn't worry. Oh wait, Mach Punch....
