It looks like a solid team; semi-stall with a wallbreaker thrown in. Have you considered dropping Crunch on T-Tar? With Pursuit and some good prediction, you won't really ever need to use Crunch. That might give you some better type coverage.

LoL. Dropping Crunch? You've obviously never realized that it's got one of the best side-effects in the game, amirite? Play more plz
If this team has a problem, it's gotta be Specs/LO Jolteon. Obviously, if Dragonite's still around, it's moot point, but you have nothing to switch into its Thunderbolt. I'm not going to talk about Swampert because a lot of Jolteon carry HP Grass specifically to deal with Swampy.
I don't understand what role Rotom is playing on this team; entry hazard defense is not important here since you are only setting up Stealth Rock. If anything, I'd replace it with something to alleviate that Jolteon weakness. However, Scarfing it does make it somewhat of a revenger to Jolteon, since Overheat does 50%~ to it, which seems good enough to me. So, yeah, I second that motion.

...That's just no. You don't directly counter DDTar, you revenge kill it. Ever heard of Scizor or Scarfrachi? And CM + Wish Jirachi sets up on Blissey all day; Jirachi doesn't care about paralysis and if it's paralyzed it can actually outstall Blissey since on turns where it's fully paralyzed it doesn't have to use a PP. And... I'm not sure what you're talking about when you talk about "Defensive variants" of Suicune. Jirachi wins over Suicune in the long run due to Jirachi having Thunderbolt and can Calm Mind alongside it, so that's really a moot point.
