Hail to the King

Hail Team:

Abomasnow @ Choice Scarf (Lead 1)
Ability: Snow Warning
EVs: 18 HP, 252 SpA, 240 Spe
Nature: Timid [+Spe, -Atk]
-Blizzard
-HP [fire]
-Energy Ball
-Ice Beam
This is the scarf set. It gives some extra speed to my team. Blizzard is great STAB. Also, energy ball is good STAB. HP Fire is for those ferrothorns and other steel types around. Finally, ice beam is for if i lose the weather war. 240 Spe is a bit better than 252 because those extra evs dont come in much handy most of the time.

Wailrein @ Leftovers
Ability: Ice body
EVs: 252 HP, 176 Def, 82 SpD
Nature: Bold [+Def, -Atk]
-Blizzard
-Toxic
-Protect
-Substitute
This is my defensive wall. I put some special bulk in there too. Blizzard is*good STAB. Thix poke dominates with protect/sub/toxic stall This poke makes good use on a hail team thanks to it's ability.*

Haxorus @ Choice Band
Ability: Mold Breaker
EVs: 252 Atk, 252 Spe, 6 HP
Nature: Jolly [+Spe, -SpA]
-Outrage
-Earthquake
-Brick Break
-Double Chop
This is my "Im tired of you being alive so Im going to OHKO you" poke. Outrage with STAB + Choice Band on a poke with 140+ base Atk is just overkill. Earthquake is so steels cant wall him. The other moves are just filler. Double Chop and Brick Break are the only other 2 moves that can even be of any use really.

Heatran @ Leftovers (lead 2)
Ability: Flash Fire
EVs: 252 HP, 252 SpD, 4 Def
Nature: Calm [+SpD, -Atk]
-Lava Plume
-Earthpower
-Toxic
-Stealth Rock
This is my special wall. Lava Plume is to stop physical attqckers from destroying me because of the 30% burn rate. Earthpower is always good. Toxic is here to slowly kill off walls and to sort of toxic stall. Stealth rock is to get up rocks and is the reason i have this as one of my usual leads.

Rotom-W @ Leftovers
Ability: Levitate
EVs: 252 SpA, 112 HP, 148 Spe
Nature: Modest [+SpA, -Atk]
-Thunderbolt
-Hydro Pump
-Will o Wisp
-Pain Split
You know, Ive always wanted to use a rotom form other than wash. For this team, I think rotom-f would be great, due to the access to blizzard. But maybe rotom-w would be better though. Either way, they'd serve the same purpose - Support. He'd be used to cripple strong physical attackers with will o wisp, hit a powerful stab with thunderbolt and blizzard/hydro pump. Also, he's bulky as can be, and pain split is just bread and butter rotom if you ask me

Golurk @ Ghost Gem
Ability: Iron Fist
EVs: 236 Atk, 252 HP, 22 Spe
Nature: Adamant [+Atk, -SpA]
-Shadow Punch
-Earthquake
-Hammer Arm
-Rock Slide
Shadow Punch makes up for golurks bad speed since its priority, stab, and iron fist boosted. Hammer arm is iron fist boosted too, but im not sure. Its hits scrafty hard, along with hydreigon who otherwise ca be a problem for golurk. Rock slide hits Volcarona hard, and provides extra coverage. The extra speed allows an outspeed on scrafty until hammer arm brings it down. Ghost gem allows an OHKO on all 0 def quiet tric roomers other than cofagrigus.*

Any criticism is appreciated.
 
Excadrill seems kinda silly on this team, if you want a pokemon to counter sand then use Gliscor or something.

BTW: only about 25% of teams have a sandstreamer
 
Personally i would use THE walrein set that is SURE to ko atleast 2 pokemon after getting up a sub ( that is if they dont have the dual chop move ... i think that is the one)
Set would be like :
Walrein @ Leftovers
Ability: Ice body
Nature: Bold
EVs : 252 Hp , 252 Defence (can split up to get some SpDef too)
Moves :
Protect , Toxic, Blizzard , Substitute

I think you'll know how this set works , just put a sub , protect next turn and you'll have the hp of the sub back , while sub will still be alive. So a chance to toxic/Blizzard every time . This pokemon is a beast , using it in another set as this is kinda a waste.

As for excadrill to counter sand teams . I wouldnt do that.
If you fight a sand team , make sure to win the weather wars.
So kill the opponents sandstreamer.
2 Sandstreamers : Ttar and Hippowdon.
Therefor i would suggest exchanging the excadrill with a Mamoswine , Ground ice , it benefits from sandstorm AND hail , it can ohko Ttar with superpower , it can kill hippo with icicle crash/ice shard . Where his other moves (earthquake ) is a nice coverage stab attack. Try it :)
 
Replace Exca with Mamo.

Mamoswine @ Life Orb/Choice Band
Ability: Snow Cloak
Nature: Adamant
EVs: 4hp/252atk/252spd
-Ice Shard
-Earthquake
-Icicle Crash
-Stone Edge/Superpower
Kills Tar and Hippo with his stab moves, as well as a ton of other Pokemon. This thing is pretty much the MVP of my team right now.
 
four of your guys are destroyed by the weather you set up for your team. I think something with magic guard is a MUST on this team. Alakazam or Reuniclus your choice, but it outta be there.
 
Ah, im going to have to do a lot of work on this team, seeing as it has many overlooked flaws. Thanks everyone, but I think I'm Probably going to have to start over from scratch
