Getting back in the game-Yes,team is complete.(OU RMT)

Well,seeing as my other thread got closed.O_O I simply ran out of space to post my entire team;it wouldn't let me type anymore,for some reason.I was also using my DSi so that might have been part of the problem.I assure you,my team is complete and I was posting the rest of it in another post.Again,I need some advice on Zapdos and Heatran mainly.Team was tested in Shoddy and I had some trouble with Heatran and Gengar so I'm open for suggestions.

Aerodactyl @Focus Sash
Pressure
4HP/252 Attack/252 Speed
Jolly
-Stealth rock
-Taunt
-Earthquake
-Rock slide

My team is built upon Stealth Rock support and IT must be placed at the beginning or my team won't fuction as good.Aerodactyl was the fastest Stealth rock user I could find in OU and he's guaranteed to get it set up.

Gengar @Leftovers
Levitate
4 HP/252 Sp.A/252 Speed
Timid
-Substitute
-Shadow Ball
-Focus Blast
-Thunderbolt

Good old Gengar.Substitute is there because Focus Blast is one of the most HORRIBLE moves EVER.>_> Unless it hits.But it WILL miss and screw me over just like it did in the past.So I rather have Gengar behind a Sub so it won't get killed because of it.-_- He's also there for spinners,maybe.Thunderbolt is there instead of the usual HP Fire because I'm scared of Gyarados if my Zapdos gets KO'd.

Zapdos @Life Orb
Pressure
4 HP/252 Sp.A/252 Speed
Timid
-Heat Wave
-HP grass
-Thunderbolt
-Roost/Agility?

I've heard and seen good things about Zapdos and he's mainly in my team to kill off Scizor since its so common.I wanted to use the more bulky set but I'm not sure.I would go with Roost because I'm paranoid he won't get a chance with Agility.Zapdos has decent bulk even without the EVs in its defences.

Scizor @Choice Band
Technician
248 HP/252 Atk/8 Speed
Adamant
-U-turn
-Bullet Punch
-Super Power
-Pursuit

The standard Scizor and I couldn't use Tyranitar for Pursuit because of Sand Stream.He's there to help revenge kill and scout.Also for Blissey,Latias,and even Gengar.U-turn is also helpful to get away from Magnezone is the other team has it.That's why I picked it over the other sets.Scizor covers well for Gengar and can work with Heatran to lure out Fire Types.

Heatran @Leftovers
Flash Fire
4 HP/252 Sp.A/252 Speed
Timid
-Fire Blast
-Earth Power
-Substitute
-Explosion

Heatran is here to cover for Scizor and to maybe get a chance to Sub because people usually expect the Choice Scarfed one.Choice Scarf would just be too risky to get locked in the wrong move and I think this set complements well with Zapdos' bulk.

Salamence @Leftovers
Intimidate
252 HP/164 Sp.D/92 Speed
Careful
-Dragon Dance
-Outrage
-Earthquake
-Roost

Salamence is meant to survive Ice Beams and hopefully get a Dragon Dance and go for the kill.Can't really say much else. I needed a physical attacker,too.The moves can be devastating after DD and Roost is there because this Salamance is meant to be bulky in Special Defense and can recover.

No,I can't get a Latias.Otherwise,I would have put her in there.Getting a good Latias is pretty much impossible or at least I think it is.And my GBA broke.=_= Also,I realize I'm lacking a Water Type and I thought about Swampert for Stealth Rock but he's just too slow to be relied on and so many things have Taunt.
Any suggestions are welcomed,even if they replace Heatran and Zapdos.
 
For Salamance I think you should change the EV spread, that's a horrible spread for a physical attacker. Just go 4 Def / 252 Atk / 252 Spe and give him a Yache Berry if your so concerned about Ice Beam. Trust me, giving him 252 HP and 92 Spe EV's isn't going to let you do damage after 1 DD. As for Zapdos if your going to use him offensively I would still go for Roost, but you stated that you wanted him as a primary Scizor counter (physical def is the best for this) and here's why. Although you useful resistances help, it eventually hurts as the damage builds up. Most teams that run Scizor also run SR, if you have to constantly switch to this Special Sweeping Zapdos with LO that takes 25% each time, he'll be going down in no time.
 
That helped tremendously and I appreciate the feedback on Zapdos as I don't want to screw up there the most.
I just realized how retarded it was to not give Salamence any Attack EVs;it is a horrible spread for the role he has on my team.XD
As for Zapdos,the new defensive EV spread would be 248 HP/228 Def/32 Speed. I want to make him a bit faster to outrun Breelom since I just fear and hate that thing.e_e I don't think I can move HP EVs due to SR damage,so if anyone has any suggestions on how many EVs I can take away from Defense and put into Speed while still being able to counter Scizor with this set,it would be extremely helpful.
