First OU rmt

These are the first 6 pokemon that ive ever EV trained and im just looking for some constructive criticism to make it better.

Lead: Infernape - focus sash
EV's: 252 attack 252 speed 4 s. attack

moves:
fake out
close combat
u-turn
overheat

I like this set up, it seems to be fairly annoying which i think is good for a lead.

s. attack sweeper: starmie - choice scarf
natural cure
EV's: 252 s. attack 252 speed 4 hp

moves:
ice beam
surf
psychic
thunder bolt

I use this more as a revenge killer i feel like, on account of how fragile it is.

Physical sweeper: Dragonite - leftovers
EV's: 252 hp 112 attack 144 s. def

moves:
dragon dance
roost
dragon claw
thunder wave

A bulky dragon dance sweeper. I was more concerned about getting dragon dance up a few times so i made it a fatty. I dont like thunder wave on this set but im not sure what else to put.

Physical wall: Bronzong - Leftovers
Heatproof
EV's: 252 hp 84 attack 128 defense 44 s. def

moves:
stealth rock
earthquake
gyro ball
hypnosis

I think bronzong is pretty solid. did not mean to get heatproof over levitate, but i still like it. Hypnosis on this pokemon is another reason why I dont want thunderwave on dragonite.

baton passer: Drifblim - leftovers
Aftermath
EV's: 128 defense 128 s. defense 252 speed

moves:
calm mind
substitute
shadow ball
baton pass

Overall i feel like this could be my weakest link, however I have never been let down by this pokemon. It passes bulky substitutes most of the time which i feel helps alot and has potential to sweep given it has time to set up.

Trap passer: umbreon - leftovers
EV's: 252 hp 96 s. defense 160 speed

moves:
protect
mean look
wish
baton pass

Pure support, this is the only pokemon on my team that has never died. I feel like this is one of my stronger pokemon as it heals all of the others and allows my team to start setting up for sweeps.

Overall I feel like my team is very defensive. Batles seem to take a while even though I am winning. I know that there is alot of room for improvement so I will relax and read all feedback. Any advice is welcome, please and thank you :heart:.

PS. let me know if theres anything I should add or forgot to mention
 
3. Have some actual words in your post beyond your six Pokemon and their moves. Not following this makes your post quite boring to read and rate. All Pokemon should have a good reason for being in your team anyway, so why not post that reason? If you are having trouble with this one, start by giving an explanation for each team member. Why are they there? What role do they serve? How do you get them in? Then, give an explanation of how you would open with the team and how you would go about using it. All of these things help people rate your team and allow us to offer more helpful advice.

You're in violation of the above quoted RMT rule. If you wish to remedy this problem, lengthen your descriptions by including more information. While writing up a new batch up descriptions, make sure to include how each of your Pokémon contribute to the success of your team, what role a specific Pokémon plays, and so on. By adding more information, the individuals that decide to rate your team will be able to help you more effectively. I recommend lurking through the RMT Archive in order to see prime examples of what we're looking for in an RMT! If you improve your explanations for your Pokémon, please private message me indicating that you've done so by showing me your new descriptions. Once you've done that, I'll re-open your thread and edit them in if the new descriptions are up to standards!
