So this the team at first I wanted to create bulky offensive team with
Heatran and Gastrodoon forming a CORE both boosting from a fire a water
attack but then I found stalling with sandstorm is better.Later I found reniclus
who takes advantage of sandstorm and magic gaurd then roobushin as another
late game sweeper. forming my bulky sweeping/stalling team


Tyranitar (M) @ Leftovers
Trait: Sand Stream
EVs: 252 HP / 4 Atk / 252 SDef
Adamant Nature (+Atk, -SAtk)
- Stealth Rock
- Crunch
- Pursuit
- Superpower

Tyranitar was the first one I thought was good for my team.
He is my main special wall for taking most hits and sets up stealth rocks
good Adamant nature for killing latios better and superpower take down
steel types

Reuniclus (M) @ Leftovers
Trait: Magic Guard
EVs: 252 HP / 252 Def / 4 SAtk
Bold Nature (+Def, -Atk)
- Calm Mind
- Recover
- Psyshock
- Focus Blast

this guy is good late game sweeper on my team and bulky at taking hits
He comes in on most fighting types with Max defense and starts setting up.also psyshock
takes down chansey and blissey fast. After 3 Calm Minds he could sweep
I dont have life orb so he could survive throughout the game.

Conkeldurr (M) @ Leftovers
Trait: Guts
EVs: 120 HP / 252 Atk / 136 SDef
Adamant Nature (+Atk, -SAtk)
- Bulk Up
- Drain Punch
- Mach Punch
- Payback

Priority user for taking out weakened pokemon with his massive Attack
Good late game Bulk Uper too Not much to say about this guy except
that he's best at coming at the end of the game but not when it's 3-1
when the opponent has a counter. As long as I get two bulk ups though
I'm good

Gliscor (M) @ Toxic Orb
Trait: Poison Heal
EVs: 252 HP / 184 Def / 72 Spd
Impish Nature (+Def, -SAtk)
- Substitute
- Protect
- Earthquake
- Toxic
He's good at staling well with Ferrothorn and his toxic wears down a lot of
pokemon. He's one of my fighting type counters and wall
Since my team is weak to conkeldurr stalls them out cold. The speed is to
outrun tyranitar. sub is great for prediction and protect to stall out more or
just goes well with leech seed.

Gastrodon (M) @ Leftovers
Trait: Storm Drain
EVs: 252 HP / 4 SAtk / 252 SDef
Calm Nature (+SDef, -Atk)
- Scald
- Earth Power
- Recover
- Toxic
he's suppose to come in on water attacks and get a good boost then start
attcking and toxic.He's also another special wall like tyranitar but bad against
physical sweepers.Scald is there just to get some burns and recover is helpful
for survival.He was the first guy I thought about because of Storm Drain and
how cool it looked he abuses tyranitar's and gliscor's weaknesses

Ferrothorn (M) @ Leftovers
Trait: Iron Barbs
EVs: 252 HP / 48 Def / 208 SDef
Relaxed Nature (+Def, -Spd)
- Spikes
- Leech Seed
- Protect
- Gyro Ball
Spikes,Leech seed and Protect this guy is bulky and can last very
long out. He once took a fire punch from tyrantar and leech seed plus protect
allows him to survive longer. Main purpose is to set up spikes and out stall the opponent
Ev's are exellent to take both special and physical attackers

So I think you can grasp the Concept behind this team. But I need some real help with it.
 
Seems like a very bulky team.
I dont think i can really add anything to this if we wanna stick to your idea.
Sweeping will be rather slow for you on the other hand so only thing i can say is to get some attackers in (but i'm thinking u want to keep the bulkyness)
 
You could probably make use of a Reuniclus check. It can set up on the vast majority of your team, so you're forced to either pray it doesn't have Psyshock to KO your Reuniclus or outstall it with Gliscor, which isn't fun at all. Maybe you could run a specially defensive SD Scizor in Conkeldurr's place. It's similar in that they're both bulky, can set up on a whim, and have access to priority. Scizor patches up your big Reuniclus weakness because it can cleanly 2HKO with Bug Bite, whilst Roosting off Focus Blast damage. Scizor still makes for a pretty good Tyranitar switch in like Conkeldurr as long as you avoid Fire Blast. A secondary Steel-type is also helpful against Dragon spam!

You absolutely need a secondary attack on Gliscor if you want any hope of beating Air Balloon Excadrill. Just run Ice Fang over Substitute. Your team definitely isn't weak to Conkeldurr since you have Reuniclus, so there's no point in trying to outstall it with Substitute. Ice Fang not only breaks Excadrill's Air Balloon, but it's helpful to do a nice chunk of damage to Latios and Thundurus switch ins.

Speaking of Thundurus, you'll be pretty hard-pressed to beat it if it gets a Nasty Plot up. One option to patch up this weakness is to give Ferrothorn Stealth Rock and use Scarf Tyranitar over the one you're currently using. You could alternatively run a Chople Berry on Tyranitar, but you can't OHKO Thundurus with Crunch unfortunately, and a +2 Focus Blast is going to do tons even with the resist berry. Scarf Tyranitar checks and traps loads of things like the Lati twins, Starmie and the aforementioned Thundurus, and it adds a dimension of speed to your team that was previously lacking.
 
Tyranitar: You invest all the EV's into bulk and yet you give him an adamant nature? I would switch the nature to Careful which boosts Sp. Defense but lowers Sp. Attack since you got the physical attacking variant even though I would lean more towards the Fire Blast/ Ice beam variant. Fire blast to take care of opponents Ferrothorns and beam for dragons (latitwins, Dnite etc..) If you decided to go with the mix attacker then I suggest Sassy Nature which decreases the speed stat. Tyranitar never really wants to outspeed anything anyways.

Reuniclus: Switch Psyshock into Shadow Ball for opposing Reuniclus's. Even though it isn't STAB other Reuniclus's will want to go into a Calm Mind war with you and you'll have the upper hand when that happens.

Conkeldurr: Nothing really to say about it, I like it.

Gliscor: I think you got the moveset kind of wrong.. I've never seen a good use for Substitute on a Gliscor, try this set:

- Ice Fang
- Earthquake
- Protect
- Swords Dance

Ice fang for dragons, Earthquake for STAB, Protect to rack up poison heal, Swords Dance to actually give your gliscor some attacking presence.

Gastrodon: Not bad, I like it

Ferrothorn: Nothing much, I like it.
 
Hey there.

Iconic made some great suggestions, and I advise you to take all of them. In addition to scarf tar though, run Stealth Rock over Leech seed on Ferrothorn as well, as that will greatly help you against Volcarona, who demolishes your team. Also, run Thunder Wave over Protect, as since you lost Leech Seed, Protect is not that useful; Thunder Wave can paralyze pokemon such as Thundurus and Terrakion and make them much less of a problem for your team. Also, run Power Whip over Gyro Ball, as 8 PP is just too little for a walls only attacking move.

Since you don't have a Rapid Spinner, I would run Taunt > Protect on Gliscor in order to help defeat stall. It would also stop pokemon such as Skarmory from phazing you away. Also, replace Toxic with Swords Dance. SD Gliscor can do some real damage to stall, and sweep late game. You won't be losing much by running Toxic regardless; common switch-sun such as Rotom-W are already taken care of by Gastrodon / Ferrothorn.

Overall, solid team. Good luck.
