The other set is
Swords Dance/Cross Chop/Ice Punch/Sucker Punch @ Life Orb
Gliscor does not wall this set as Toxicroak utterly destroys it with Ice Punch. This is the Mynosim set which is so deadly and trust me, is the best set Toxicroak can run in this metagame which was why I emphasised it as such a threat. If it was rare I would'nt bother giving it a mention.

Good thing you mentioned that. Someone might use that Toxicroak, and that will happen. =D

I'd then recomend a Rotom W (you can make it scarfed I guess if you want to keep the weapon against stall) which will then prevent Swords Dance + Taunt Ice Fang Gliscor from sweeping you.

I'm feeling it that way. However, to whom should I replace with Rotom-W?

Actually, if you never knew it, Latias is my core there. The beauty of Reflect Type is great, since that move stupefies opponents. Leftovers mitigate that problem, but it takes a lot of skill to do that, though...

I would say give your Heatran a Balloon to avoid his x4 weakness to Ground. Otherwise this team is fun, good job.

Volcarona's a huge problem for me, and I think I'm going to test out the specially defensive Heatran ginganinja's suggesting me. Thanks for mentioning Volcarona as a threat, though. =D
