Abomasnow@Leftovers~Yeti(M)
-Snow Warning-
Nature:timid
Ev's:6 hp, 252 speed, 252 special attack
-Blizzard
-Grassknot
-Substitute
-Leechseed

Abomasnow is for starting up this marvelous team.
It has great Bulk and he's also the Starting for Hail.
Grassknot for stuff like Swampert/Hippodon leads.
Blizzard as stab , A Powerfull one , cant miss due to hail.
Substitute for taking hits. I use this on anything it can resist or Switch ins. Also used to use Leech Seed on steel Types or Fire that might harm.
If I have seeded and sub breaks I can switch to a counter like..Heatran or Wallrein.

Wallrein@Leftovers~Azure(F)
-Ice Body-
Nature:Bold
Ev's: 220 hp,240def, 48 Speed
-Surf
-toxic
-Substitute
-Protect

Stallrein..Every iceteam needs a Wall like this Beauty.
Its hp and Bulk are Necessary for a Hailteam like this.
Hp is high enough to make 101 Subs. Def to take in the fysical damage.
Wallrein helps me tank the Fighting/Fire/Steel moves flying my way.
Every1 knows Ice is weak to this and This will take on the hits.
Protect is for outstalling stuff or sometimes getting the neccesary Hp.
Leftovers+hail gives u a 12% hp+ each turn and If I have a Leechseed running its like..25% hp which is awesome.
Substitute to ofcourse soak up damage which is needed.
Toxic to destroy pokes that Are my Type which surf cant kill or just to Toxic stuff that have statted up and are to lethal to kill head on.
Toxic is Especially usefull for all those Fatgyaradosses in OU.
Surf is my only stab attack and does its work well even tho I havent added any Special Attack

Mamoswine@Choiceband~I_R_BIG(M)
-Snowcloak-
Nature: Jolly
Ev's: 6 def 252 atk, 252 speed
-Ice Shard
-Superpower
-Earthquake
-Stone edge

Another Must have for the snow!
Iceshard is a good revenge killer. A good stab and can sometimes even KO pokes that are Neutral to ice. Or atleast 2hit them. Usefull on grasstypes also. Superpower is for the Types of Steel that can levitate or for instance Rock/Normal to quickly finish seeing its a powerfullmove. Or killing any Darktypes that Might harm my Froslass. Or countering another ice.
Earthquake is a Reliable stab which hurts alot and has a good Accuracy.
Stone Edge is for the annoying Fire/Flying that might show up. And also for the other Icetypes trying to fight me.

Froslass@Brightpowder~Kimono(F)
-Snowcloak-
Nature:Timid
Ev's: 252 special attack, 252 speed, 4 hp
-Shadowball
-Spikes
-Substitute
-Ice Beam

This girl is all about luck..
Brightpowder+Snowcloak lowers the accuracy of the opponents Drasticly.
If i can I try to set up a Substitute to Either Sweep what I can. Or spike it up Seeing Ireally dont have any entry Hazards and need some Hazards to stop some enemy's. Shadowball and Icebeam are very Reliable stabs
To do some nifty damage.
** I have been thinking of Changing it to another Froslass Set but i dont have a clue really which one..Maybe Specs/Scarfed**

Weavile@Leftovers~Revenge
-Pressure-
Nature:Jolly
Ev: 252 attack, 252 speed, 4 hp
-Sworddance
-Nightslash
-Xcissor
-Brick Break

Oke first let me explain why I dont have Iceshard/Icepunch.
I have 3 pokes already who know an Icemove so I felt it wasnt needed to Have another Icemove. No Shard/Punch means more room for type coverage so thats what I decided, Correct me if I'm Wrong tho
Sword Dance for the stat boost. Nightslash for the stab(<3 when it crits)
Xcissor for Typecoverage killing Grasstypes, sometimes Psychic if i feel Nightslash isnt needed. Brickbreak to counter those nasty Screeners/Steel/Rock that might Hurt me. Also good for using on dark/ice.
Weavile is Mainly my Attacking sweeper together with Mamoswine.
**Lately I havent been finding Him not that usefull so maybe another type that can take over my Heatran or A Different Ice type for a different purpose thats what I'm looking for to replace him possibly
Or maybe Choicebandering him.**

Heatran@Leftovers~Cookies(M)
-Flash Fire-
Nature:Timid
Ev's:248 hp,56 special attack, 204 Special Def.
-Lava Plume
-Rest
-Sleep Talk
-Earthpower

A Must in my eye's . Heatran is my major counter to Fire and Steel which is Highly needed since my entire team is weak to this. I cant Pass fighting attacks to this puppy but Froslass and Wallrein can take care of those.
The Mainreason why I choose this set is because it has to be Durable.
When Hail is raining down on him it Negates his leftovers so I needed something that could keep him Alive->Rest.
When its sleeping its very vulnerable Hence I threw in Sleep talk to keep it Offensive nonetheless.
Lava plume is chosen because of the burn. 30% burn is Highly needed but might change it To Eruption if thats possible? Using its Resting to better power? Earthpower for countering the rock/steel types that are threathening and also LAva plume is for that purpose and Possibly killing any Grass threats that I'm not able to kill with anything else.
The Special Def Ev's are for taking on Earthpower from other Heatrans so I can Outlive them and Hurt them. Flashfire ofcourse to Abuse the incoming absorbing Fire Attacks.

The reason I'm writing this RMT is because im stuck at 1400. And im participating in a 16 person monotourney+1 Wildcard Hence the Restrictions.
I would like to improve this team and I'm getting dissatisfied by the current Weavile and Froslass. Maybe a different moveset or something might fix that but I just want some feedback on what to do.
If you have a better counter for Fire/Steel then heatran please Tell me .

Yours Infectious
if you have any other remarks about the setup of this RMT please tell me so I can watch this next time.
 
My suggestions:

Give Weavile CB. Your team is more stall, and a stat up sweeper seems out of place. X-Scissor is very redundant coverage, so I suggest Ice Punch/Ice Shard, and you have Night Slash for Psychics and ghosts, and now Ice for grass types, plus it gives you Dragon/Ground/Flying coverage. If using CB I suggest Ice Shard.

Heatran doesn't learn Eruption, so it can't get that. Your set does look fine, and it gives you a status/fire absorber.

I have problems with your Walrein. It NEEDS roar, or things like Scizor can come in and set up on you. I suggest losing toxic, and instead replacing Froslass with Tentacruel.

With Tentacruel, you can put down T-Spikes, Rapid Spin, and absorb fighting attacks well. It also stops mix/SD ape from wrecking your team.


Tentacruel@Leftovers
Bold/ Liquid Ooze
160 Hp/ 252 Def/ 98 SpA
-Rapid Spin
-Toxic Spikes
-Surf
-Blizzard
 
oke but , Toxic is used for Gyarados and other things I cant normally kill with Wallrein, i can kill scizor with wallrein most of the times so wont need that..Cant put in Tentacruelbecause I need to have 5 Ice and 1 wildcard
The wildcard being heatran...Tentacruel is water/poison so thats not an option..
 
Infernape hits everything for super effective so I would advise u get Tentacruel in there in place of Heatran. I would also give Froslass leftovers as relying on luck isn't the best way to go.
 
Yeah, Leftovers seems a better option over BrightPower. I have some suggestion and doubts, first of all why are you giving Weavile X-Scisor? I find no purpose for it but a 1HKO on Celebi who is no threat in a Hail team since most of them have ice moves + the Hail damage Celebi should be done in no time.
About your Abomasnow a Mixed set might be better, adding EQ for hitting those Heatrans, Magnezone and Metagross is sure good, I would also add Wood Hammer since it harms Bliss hard.
Else than that, maybe changing Froslass to an Specs set with trick since you have a lack of a quick revenge killer, Mamo isnt the best revenge killer, something I've seen that works is the addition of Rotom as Revenge killer in Hail teams since it deals with most of the counters a hail team has to face.
