Looking at the top ten, tyranitar, breloom, rotom-w, and to an extent, ferrothorn, all break Jellicent. Jellicent has nice typing for walling certain pokemon, but its mediocre defensive stats and large amount of weaknesses allow many pokemon to defeat it easily.

Keldeo's usage simply isn't high enough to justify running jellicent as a dedicated counter.

Although I'm not sure about the end of BW1, Deoxys's usage definitely picked up with Genesect's usage due to the rise in hyper offensive teams. However, as both usages moved higher, due to Genesect's nature as a counter to Deoxys, its usage fell. I suspect that just like the suspect ladder usage...

Roost seems to remove typings that are not flying or otherwise changes damage. When my volcorona is hit here with a flare blitz, it does 22% more damage the second time, and min/max does not account for such a large difference. Turn 11 Volcarona used Fiery Dance! It's not very effective...

The first thing when I see this team is the extreme lack of physical attackers. Only a setup sweeper with a 4x weakness and a wall will not do it, considering the 3 choiced special attackers. Since Gastrodon is so extremely similar to Politoed, I would swap out Gastrodon for a physical attacker...

While I like the idea of intimidate, you must remember that it has no effects on special attackers. Standard BoltBeam coverage rips through 2/3 of your team (Politoed/Landorus/Gyarados/Thundurus). Once Hitmontop is gone, a pokemon like Thundurus can OHKO the rest of your team with thunder/focus...

Yeah, the lack of substitute on many of his pokemon make his team vulnerable to a range of different effects, and not just the uncommon priority taunt.
