Nidoqueen - Leftovers
Poison Point
Bold
EVs: 252 HP / 200 Def / 12 SpD / 44 Spe
~ Toxic Spikes
~ Taunt
~ Earth Power
~ Flamethrower

Standard Nidoqueen is my teams leader. It puts some Toxic Spikes and then Taunts foe. Earth Power and Flamethrower can do good damage.

Mismagius - Leftovers
Levitate
Timid
EVs: 108 HP / 180 SpA / 220 Spe
~ Shadow Ball
~ Calm Mind
~ Substitute
~ Hidden Power [Fighting]

My teams Special Sweeper. This is the tactic: First Substitute+Calm Mind.
If there comes trapping Umbreon, i just use HP Fighting. Shadow Ball for
STAB move.

Lumineon.png

Lumineon - Life Orb
Swift Swim
Modest
EVs: 120 HP / 252 SpA / 8 SpD / 128 Spe
~ Rain Dance
~ Surf
~ Ice Beam
~ U-Turn

Lumineon is one of my favorite pokémons. This thing is cool to use.
First I use Rain Dance, if there are problems, I scout with U-Turn.
Waterfall and Ice Beam for STABs. Ice Beam actually for hitting Flying or Grass-types. U-Turn is good for Grass-types too.

venusaur.png

Venusaur - Leftovers
Overgrow
Bold
EVs: 252 HP / 252 SpD / 4 Spe
~ Sleep Powder
~ Leech Seed
~ Earthquake
~ Energy Ball

Standard annoyer Venusaur. First use Sleep Powder and then Leech Seed.
Earthquake for Muks and Toxicroaks. Energy Ball is its STAB move. I use it for fainting Swamperts.

umbreon.png

Umbreon - Leftovers
Synchronize
Sassy
EVs: 252 HP / 200 Atk / 56 SpD
~ Curse
~ Payback
~ Wish
~ Baton Pass

Cursing & Baton Passing Umbreon. Wish for healing other pokémons in my team, and Umbreon too. I also thought Dark Pulse or Payback for Faint Attack.

clefable.png

Clefable - Leftovers
Magic Guard
Bold
EVs: 252 HP / 152 Def / 104 SpA
~ Calm Mind
~ Softboiled
~ Ice Beam
~ Thunderbolt

Late game sweeper. Softboiled and the defensive EVs make it pretty easy for me to Calm Mind up. I keep Calm Minding and if HP is low, i use Softboiled.
When stats are good raised, I attack with Ice Beam or Thunderbolt.

So that is my first team..
 
Just a nitpick but shouldnt it be Surf > Waterfall on Lumineon since ur using no Att EVs and Modest ?
 
Well, the only physical sweeper u got is umbreon with just 1 damage dealing move, may be there will be some probs gainst huge spec.walls or simple walls in general!? I dont know but, does Clefable have that much staying power to become something like a "lategame sweeper"!?May be Moltres and Charizard could also be a problem.
 
Ok, let's start

1. Nidoqueen
With the suspects finally being eliminated, it is important to realize that Taunt will be much more prevelant. The Taunt will mainly come from Electrodes, Floatzels, and Ambipoms. So most likely you won't get to Taunt or T-Spike. Also, Electrodes often run Focus Sash. So you may need another lead, but I would not change it until you test it out some in the new enviroment.

2. Mismagius
Standard, Annoying, Maggy, the bain of my own team, keep it.

3. Lumineon
Ok, I know you like this pokemon, but there is probably a better pokemon to get the job done. Lumineon has U-Turn, but the other options have generally better attacking moves and stats. So you may want to change that.

Everything else is pretty standard, though I would suggest that you put Payback over Faint Attack on Umbreon, and that you switch Venusaur for SubSeed Shaymin. It doesn't get Sleep Powder, but it's a ton more bulky The main weakness I see in your team is that it does nothing apart from Lumineon to abuse the rain. You need to look for some Rain Sweepers (like Qwilfish and Kabutops) or Rain Stallers (like Ludicolo and Parasect). Otherwise, you might not run it.

Just renember, the main goal of weather is to KEEP THE BALL IN YOUR HANDS. Control the game, make your opponent make difficult decisions.
 
Umbreon is better with Payback.
1. Payback without being second is only 10 damage behind Faint Attack, and the PP is half as much as Payback, but still that is fine, because you shouldn't expect Umbreon to sweep their team anyways.
2. With Curse, Payback goes second nearly all the time, so as a result your attack usually hugely outweighs what it would be with Faint Attack

So really overall, when you factor in Curse, Payback becomes a beast move for you, Faint Attack is cool but...it lacks the possible power Payback gets.
My 2 cents
