Crit immunity is useful, but shouldn't leave it OP, since no one relies on crits competitively.
Levitate + Ghost/Steel would make it pretty strong. So give it less than 600 base stats. 100/95/100/50/60/95, for example, wouldn't be unbeatable, but wouldn't dominate I think.
poison, ground, normal, fighting x 0 - that's pretty hot.
Fire x 2, Ghost, Water, Dark x 1... but these are all special attackers anyways. For all intents and purposes, this would be a Shedinja that gets 2 or 3 hit KOed by a lot.

w/o levitate, there's some chance Earthquake could OHKO him after stealthrocks, with good stat allocatiom, but he'd be a lot less interesting IMO. Still, 4 immunities > 3 seems like it's carve it's own niche and wouldn't need base 600 stats to do anything.

Edit: We really do need a Contrary abuser besides Spinda and Snivylutions.

Edit 2: Also, I think we need a few variations of Flame Charge; such an excellently designed move.
