I think stall works rather well in this meta, however it packs a few requirements. Hippowdon or Tyranitar MUST be used, to shut down rain or sun. Then, make sure you have a counter to sand sweepers, but this can usually be attained through gliscor or skarmory at the moment. Heatran is also necessary to take anything genesect has. That leaves you with unfortunately three spots, but there are enough pokes that can fill the roles well enough. I don't actually think viable stall has become more diverse, just the opposite. The layout of the metagame makes it so certain pokes are required, and only the best pokes should fill the remainder. On a side note, I haven't seen blissey in a long time. Where did they all go?
