A overall fun team to use. At first glance, meta seems to be a problem. lax is a bit hard to counter too.

pretty damn cool. The only problem I see is CM Jirachi possibly owning. Since you have a reliable Wisher and an Aromatherapist, you could use Roar > Rest on your LS Zapdos for a dependable phazer. Helps rack up damage from Spikes, too.

Hitmontop also needs HP Ghost if it wants Rapid Spin. Won't kill Dusclops, but could render Gengar very weak, which is a good thing.

Despite having a Boah, this team seems wallable, so just prevent your main hitters (Boah, CBSkarm, and Zapdos) from dying. You might have to remove your Hitmontop for Swampert for the aforementioned Metagross problem. Give it Toxic or Curse to deal with bulky waters.
