My first stab at it [RMT]

This team is doing reasonably well on Shoddy, but it needs some help, my biggest weakness seems to be Garchomp, anyway. Changes in Bold,original in (brackets), Gengar now helps with chomp.

At a glance:

Skulkraken

Adamant
Leftovers
212HP, 16ATK, 180DEF, 100SPD
Waterfall
Return
Taunt
Dragon Dance

Well, he's my lead, and one of my phsyical sweepers, and a bit of a semi-tank. I don't think I need to explain the moves or anything.

Oracle

Adamant
Life Orb
4HP, 252ATK, 252SPD
Swords Dance
Close Combat
Extreme Speed
Stone Edge

He's my other Physical Sweeper, but I'm still unsure of the last move, though it came in handy against Togekiss.

Kingbooboo (on shoddy Kingboomboo, boss from Sonic A2B)

Modest (Timid)
Choice Scarf (Life Orb)
4HP, 252SATK, 252SPD (depends on IVs, though if I get lucky, or use Shoddy, 64HP, 252SATK, 192SPD)
Shadow Ball
Focus Blast
Thunderbolt
Hidden Power [Ice] (Hypnosis)

Scarf seems like the way to go, with HP Ice, Chomps should give me less trouble. He's my special sweeper.
(Yes, no scarf, don't know why I chose not to use it, but I did :p. He's my special special sweeper and my sleeper.)

Mutilation

Relaxed
Leftovers
240HP, 216DEF, 52SATK
Surf
Ice Beam
Earthquake
Stealth Rock

He's my tank, bulky water etc. Originally I was going to run Metagross (And E-Vire over Lucario), just for rocks, but then I realised, there would be no Ice on my team!

LA (Los Angeles on Shoddy)
weezing.png

Bold
Leftovers (Black Sludge)
252HP, 252DEF, 4SPD
Pain Split
Fire Blast
Will'o'wisp (Thunderbolt)
Haze

My Physical (I keep typicng psychical wall lol) wall, phazer and statuser.
(My Physical Wall and Phazer, originally put in here fore heracross (then I never find any heracross on shoddy T_T). He is probably the weakest member of my team, and will probably be replaced, any suggestions?)

Serebii

Careful
Leftovers
252HP, 100DEF, 80SDEF, 36SPD
Grass Knot
Leech Seed
Recover
Aromatherapy

My Cleric and the closest thing to a special wall, which is why he has more SDEF EVs and the SDEF+ nature. I didn't know how many I needed, and need a little help there.

Well, this is it. Please don't be too nasty :)
 
If Garchomp seems to be a problem, I would put a Choice Scarf on Gengar and give it HP Ice for the revenge kill, at least. That leaves your team without any status inducer, though...

So give Weezing Will-o-Wisp over TBolt. Celebi is a reasonable Gyara counter, which seems to be the reason you're using TBolt. Also, if you gave your Gyara Stone Edge over Return, you coud switch in on another Gyara's Taunt and beat them, assuming they were running one of the popular Waterfall+Earthquake or Waterfall+Ice Fang sets. Also, give Weezing Leftovers. Black Sludge might seem like an appealing way to stop Trickers like Alakazam, but the Tricker can just give the Black Sludge onto a bulky Poke like Swampert or Gyara, completely destroying them.

I like the idea of HP Ice on Gengar (back to breeding for me T_T :)), and I'll give weezing the will'o'wisp, as T-bolt never did much anyway. I think I'll stick with Return on Gyara for now though, as Lucario already has stone edge, and I'm afraid I don't see your logic on the black sludge, could you explain it please?

EDIT: oops, I get it now, yeah, I'll swap it.
