Abomasnow (F) @ Leftovers
Trait: Snow Warning
EVs: 252 HP / 172 Def / 84 SDef
Calm Nature (+SDef, -Atk)
- Substitute
- Leech Seed
- Blizzard
- Protect
With a Defensive spread hopefully I can switch in on those types of attacks and attempt to start chip damage with Hail and Leech Seed. Substitute I use on switches and if I can get one in on a successful fully Paralyzed opponent I can Leech Seed and annoy to better effect. Protect helps with stalling for my recovery, Hail damage, and scouting. I Blizzard when I can get in attack in and so I am not forced out due to a Taunt.

Walrein (F) @ Leftovers
Trait: Ice Body
EVs: 232 HP / 220 Def / 56 Spd
calm Nature (-Atk, +Sp Def)
- Protect
- Substitute
- Ice Beam
- toxic
when thinking of a annoying monster that can stall with no end in sight i thought of this big guy,substitute and protect are there to keep me in battle and not being hit while my opponents die from hail or within range of an ice beam attack, i chose to use attract so he can be a little more effective at stalling Pokemon to death, and ice beam is for those dragon types and so im not taunt bait.

Wobbuffet (M) @ Leftovers
Trait: Shadow Tag
EVs: 24 HP / 232 Def / 252 SDef
Bold Nature (+Def, -Atk)
- Encore
- Mirror Coat
- Safeguard
- Counter
His main job is to trap the opponent weather starters, encore is there to trap Pokemon into a stat boosting move,mirror coat is there to counter Sp A users, and counter is there for to kill Reg attackers,safe guard is there in-case i want to trap opponent into toxic for 5 turns, in the end he is very important to this team because he clear opposing weather monsters, and can provide setup turns for me.

Vaporeon (M) @ Leftovers Trait: Water Absorb
EVs: 248 HP / 252 Def / 8 SDef
Bold Nature (+Def, -Atk)
- Wish
- Protect
- Scald
- Ice Beam
I decided to add this into team because it is a great support pokemon and can stall if needed but that ain't all this monster is packing it got decent sp A also,wish is for supporting my team mates wish support is so amazing for a stall team without spinner and stalling if i need to,protect is to test my opponent moves and see if switch is needed and so time pass for wish,scald is a for coverage and got chance to burn enemey if they aint already posin, ice beam is there to kill dragon and got good coverage

Sableye (F) @ Leftovers
Trait: Prankster
EVs: 252 HP / 120 Def / 136 Spd
Calm Nature (+SDef, -Atk)
- Recover
- Confuse Ray
- Foul Play
- Toxic
He is here to take fighting hits and to be annoying he is one of the reason many people forfeit,recover is there so i can keep in battle as long as possible,confuse ray is there to make opponents hit them self,toxic is there to slowly drain away at opponents,foul play is attack move so not taunt bait

Heatran (F) @ Leftovers Trait: Flash Fire
EVs: 244 HP / 8 SDef / 252 Spd
Timid Nature (+Spd, -Atk)
- Torment
- Substitute
- stealth rocks
- Lava Plume
one of the reason why i chose heatran is very few Pokemon carry more than one attack that can severely hurt Heatran, and by using Torment on them, said Pokemon must either switch out or stay in,Substitute is there to provide cover for me, torment work perfectly with substitute because not many people got 2 moves that can several damage heatran, stealth rocks is there to damage because this set cause switches a lot, lava plume is there to damage them and it got a 30% burn rate, i chose 252 because he out speed all other weather starters, and the reason why i chose heatran is because he provide alot of resistances to this team and he absorb fire
 
Your team is lacking in hazard supports and you need more defense since ice is arguably the worst type defense-wise, not to mention how many pokemon in the OU tier can do fighting, rock, fire and steel type moves.
 
Pwoosh, where do we start...

Alright, first we gotta get you a Pokémon that's able to take a hit.

Check out the Ferrothorn analysis on Smogon, and choose the set you like the best, preferably the defensive one. Replace your Liepard with the set you choose.

Up next is that Vanilluxe...dear god, let's switch that. Based on what you're looking for, I would definitely go for the Roost set with a Kyurem. It'll prove to have much better offensive presence than a Vanilluxe.

Now, the Wobbuffet is good, but I personally wouldn't use it in a Hail team. I think someone else should know a suitable replacement, I don't really want to go tearing apart your team.
 
First off, props to you for using a hail team! They're underrated as hell. Anyway, my edits:

-Toxic works MUCH better than Attract on Walrein, honestly. You should definitely make that change.
-I'm seconding the idea of replacing Vanilluxe, but I'd like to suggest Heatran instead of Kyurem. This team BADLY needs a Fire absorber, and as an added bonus, he can set up Stealth Rock for you. Whether you want an offensive or a defensive build is up to you.
 
You need to replace wobbufet with Heatran, and Vanill with Kyurem. Also, your team is very SR-weak, so a spinner would be nice. I don't want to destroy your team, but it needs a little revamping. Also, if you want, Regice can be the new StallRein.
 
First off, Swagger does not increase the user's atk but the target's attack by 2 stages^^ (@Professir Shroomish : Oh yeah, you're right, my fault^^)

T hen again, nice idea playing a hail team!
Unfortunetaly, you run a lot of ice-type pokemon, thus you're extremely weak to Stealth Rock. Your team would greatly appreciate a spinner.
As mentionend above, Toxic > Attract at walrein works wonders. You definitely need a way to deal damage^^
Additionally, entry hazards such as Stealth Rock or Spikes are virtually obligatory in a stall team. Adding Heatran in your team would offer you a way to set up SR, add a fire-immunity (you've got no fire-resistor) and provides you with the ability wo phaze opposing threats away, thus racking up passive damage.

Either way, good luck with your team :)
