Yea, I referenced fatty, but I actually suggested putting Spikes over Rest, not Sleep Powder. I am well aware of how effective sleep is on an offensive team ;d.

I do love Snorlax (though that's not the set I'd use) but obviously I need to get a Earthquake immunity on this team otherwise I'll get beat down by everyone with Hippowdon / Rhyperior.

Yea, noob of me to take away your EQ immunity, my b. What set would you use for offensive lax (or were you thinking of the Rest Talk set)? I don't think Snorlax would have problems setting up Curse, since it is really bulky, and can really pack a punch after a Curse or two.
The only other route I can see with Lax is going CB, which will give you immediate power. Double-Edge essentially hits just as hard as CB Rhyperior's EQ, so you don't need to worry about physical behemoth, such as Hippowdon walling it.
CBLax
~ Double-Edge
~ Crunch
~ Seed Bomb / Earthquake
~ Body Slam / Selfdestruct / Pursuit
Body Slam provides clutch paralysis, which is also amazing on an offensive team. If you're not running Body Slam, you may possibly want to run enough Speed EVs to outpace Hippowdon, so it wont Slack Off-stall Lax (140 Spe EVs, :/)

I probably wouldn't think about replacing Zapdos with this but I would definitely think about putting Rotom-C over Roserade which would allow me to use Snorlax. I'll test this. I'm leaning towards a Specs or Life Orb set though.

Good idea! Nice suggestion, Scade :d
