Welcome to Smogon! Take a moment to read the Introduction to Smogon for a run-down on everything Smogon, and make sure you take some time to read the global rules.
I spoke with frosty, mowtom. My orders will come later today. I screwed up my calendar and thought today was my eye doctor's appointment. Turns out it was yesterday and shot my chances to order to hell.
Another reason it took me longer than normal to order? Calculating out every single move each of the four pokemon known for each target, and taking into account critical hits. I may not be a great battler, but you cannot deny I am busting my ass to do better.
Crustle: Knock Off (Azumarill) > Poison Jab (Azumarill) > Poison Jab (Azumarill)

Sub 2: IF Targeted with a Damaging Rock-Type Attack, THEN Counter and push actions back
Sub 3: [ONCE] IF Rhydon has less than 20 HP, THEN Protect (Rhydon) instead
KO Sub 1: IF Azumarill is KO'd when you would target it, THEN Flail (Blaziken) instead

- Using a resisted attack when ordering first is only justifiable if the benefits are REALLY good. Like, if you get a KO or you take out eviolite from a rhydon/dusclops or something like that. Losing Expert Belt isn't a good example. Usually at least.
- Also Rhydon doesn't learn Knock Off <_<
- When subbing for dive, always consider the possibility of it being suspended
- You missed something important...
Reffing facilities instead of ordinary matches usually help you figuring out the best actions faster. Or get used to that. Since you will need to order on many matches at a short time span and with different movepools involved. But you will need to ref them giving your best. At first it is really tiring and horrible, but you get used to it.
Blaziken: COMBO (Solarbeam + Solarbeam) at Rhydon - cooldown - Heat Wave
Azumarill: Aqua Tail (Crustle) - Aqua Tail (Crustle) - Surf

Ordering when you've spent 2 days with a migraine, 2 days projectile vomiting, 1 day with a sore throat and 20 hours worth of sleep over that 5 day period is not advised.
Rampardos: Hammer Arm (Colossoil) > Endure > Hammer Arm (Colossoil)
IF Colossoil is KOed, THEN Thunder Punch (Azumarill) instead
