Let's try this again... OU RMT

This is my second post so bare with me. >_>

@ Choice Specs
EVs: 252 Sp Atk / 252 Spd / 6 HP
Timid
Grass Knot
Ice Beam
Surf
Thunderbolt

For now this is my lead. I hit something and then probably switch to Garchomp or Swampert if they take the bait and go after me with lightning. I'm not sure if I should change this to Scarfchomp or not as I've been getting bitchslapped with U-turn. Also, I may switch this to a bulkier set and switch Grass Knot to Recover.

@ Choice Scarf
EVs: 252 Atk / 252 Spd / 6 HP
Adamant
Close Combat
Pursuit
Stone Edge
Megahorn

Choice Scarf Heracross that I usually switch in on special walls or I wait until something of mine dies to put it in. Its weaknesses are covered by Bronzong/Swampert who are viable switch-ins once something that walls me is put in. I might change him to a Flame orb (Is that the name?) To activate Guts and put in Facade and make a sweeper out of him. Maybe Swords Dance would work with that set?

@ Choice Scarf
EVs: 252 Atk / 252 Spd / 6 HP
Adamant
Fire Fang
Outrage
Stone Edge
Earthquake

Fast and hard hitting Scarfchomp. I switch him in when provided with an opportunity agaisnt a special wall or in anticipation of the use of lightning Outrage covers most Pokemon and helps against Pokemon that wall Starmie and Heracross. I might put him in the lead spot or even change him to a Jolly Life Orb sweeper.

@ Leftovers
EVs: 240 HP / 138 Atk / 132 Sp. Def
Careful
Thunderpunch
Pain Split
Will-O-Wisp
Shadow Sneak

Mixed wall that's heavier on the Special defense. Will-O-Wisp for support against walls and physical attackers. Pain Split will heal me when needed. Shadow Sneak is for STAB and priority. I'll switch him in on a near death opponent and Sneak them or switch him in on a fighting/normal attack. I might switch Thunder Punch to Ice Punch

@ Leftovers
EVs: 252 HP / 126 Def / 132 Sp. Def
Sassy
Gyro Ball
Hypnosis
Earthquake
Stealth Rock

Another mixed wall. I'll switch him in on Earthquakes and attacks it's resistant to. After switching I'll throw out some Stealth Rock support and hit any threats with Hypnosis. Gyro Ball is for fast opponents and Earthquake covers Magnezone and such. I might ditch Earthquake for Confuse Ray. If not I may adjust the EV spread for a more offensively oriented version.

@ Leftovers
EVs: 240 HP / 58 Atk / 212 Def
Relaxed
Avalanche
Earthquake
Roar
Surf

My Physical wall, Swampert. I'll switch him in on fire to save my Bronzong and any lightning that comes my way that Garchomp can't handle. Roar is my pseudohazing support. Avalanche and Earthquake's ice/ground-ness is for type for coverage. Surf may be switched to Hydro Pump.


I know my team is really standard, but I want a team that can compete as opposed to my teams of BL favorites getting owned. Any help/comments will be greatly appreciated. I didn't do a threats section because, quite frankly, I'm not too knowledgeable on the whole competitive battling scene. I haven't had enough experience to know what all exactly will fuck my team. S' why I'm here. :)
 
Three choice items is a bit much for your team. I would go with a bulkier spread for Starmie with leftovers and recover, as well as switch it with Bronzong as your starter.You also should lose a scarf on either Heracross or Garchomp; you should consider using a regular choice band Heracross or a Guts-Facade/SD set or making Garchomp Jolly with Yache Berry and Swords Dance over Stone Edge. I could see scarfgar giving you problems so I would suggest switching dusknoir for blissey.
 
Yeah, I agree on the choice items. I need a sweeper, I've found out. I'm going to change the Starmie to the Bulky version and Heracross to the Guts version. I may take you up on the Blissey, but I don't particularluy care for her and I'd rather have something to switch into to nullify damage from fighting/normal rather than something weak to fighting.

I have to go now, but I'll change up the team probably tomorrow or maybe later tonight. I would like more replies in the mean time, though for more opinions (please).
 
I'd change heracross to MoPcross, who can take advantage of all those switches he forces with sub and sd. You need someone who can set up.
