Good to know that am not the only one annoyed by that ridiculous, cheap, no skill, focus sash shell smashing smeragle with either ingrain / taunt / or magic coat as the 4th move. It's difficult to stop if it has proper team support, like lead deoxys-s. From my experience of facing it, I honestly think it's completely broken and uncompetitive in ubers.
But back on the subject of offense in ubers, I'd like to bring up barry4ever's guide:

Definitively one of the best guides I've read on smogon, the metagame has changed a bit with the bw2 stuff being released of course, but the guide is still really good. Toxic Forretress can be a pretty decent sd arceus check, which is very important as offensive teams tend to be sd arceus weak unless they're running skarmory. It also provides that much needed rapid spin support [yeah, it's harder to spin in ubers, deal with it.] Darkrai, Mewtwo, Rayquaza, and Ghost Arceus are also the most threatening offensive pokemon in my opinion.
