Standard Team

Nasty Plot Sweeper (Lead)

Porygon-Z @ Life Orb
Ability: Adaptability
EVs: 6 HP / 252 SAtk / 252 Spd
Nature: Timid (+Spd, -Atk)
- Tri Attack
- Dark Pulse
- Nasty Plot
- Hidden Power (Fighting)

Nasty Plot catapults Porygon-Z's already monstrous Special Attack to new heights, and with a single boost, it becomes difficult to stop. Adaptability makes Tri Attack, already a powerful move, almost unstoppable. Hidden Power Fighting and Dark Pulse cover the resistances to Porygon-Z's Normal STAB.

SpecsMence

Salamence @ Choice Specs
EVs: 6 HP / 252 SAtk / 252 Spd
Nature: Modest (+SAtk, -Atk)
- Hydro Pump
- Dragon Pulse
- Flamethrower
- Draco Meteor

Draco Meteor is the move to be used early on in the battle for beating holes into Salamence's opponent while Dragon Pulse is used later on in the battle for sweeping purposes, generally picking up the scraps. Since only one type resists Dragon Attacks (Steel), Flamethrower is a necessity. It can hit incoming Steel types for super effective damage. Hydro Pump hits Heatran nicely and will out damage Draco Meteor against Pokémon who take super effective damage from it.

Swords Dancer

Garchomp @ Life Orb
EVs: 16 HP / 252 Atk / 240 Spd
Nature: Jolly (+Spd, -SAtk)
- Fire Fang
- Earthquake
- Dragon Claw
- Swords Dance

Both of Garchomp's STAB moves, Dragon Claw and Earthquake, together are only resisted by Skarmory and Bronzong. Fire Fang, which is boosted Swords Dance, can easily take care of that problem.

Choice Band

Tyranitar @ Choice Band
EVs: 60 HP / 252 Atk / 198 Spd
Nature: Adamant (+Atk, -SAtk)
- Crunch
- Pursuit
- Earthquake
- Stone Edge

Crunch and Stone Edge both benefit from STAB and Tyranitar's massive Attack stat and will be Tyranitar's main methods of attack. Earthquake helps to cover some Steel types such as Magnezone and Lucario and hits Metagross and Jirachi. Pursuit hits a fleeing enemy for the same damage as Crunch would and OHKOs almost everything that is weak to it.

Special Wall

Blissey @ Leftovers
Ability: Natural Cure
EVs: 150 HP / 252 Def / 104 SAtk / 4 Spd
Nature: Bold (+Def, -Atk)
- Sing
- Ice Beam
- Softboiled
- Seismic Toss

Blissey will switch into any special attacker, and Seismic Toss or Sing accordingly, restoring her HP with Softboiled as needed. Ice Beam gives Blissey an additional offensive move. It stops Ghosts with Substitute from walling Blissey completely (such as Gengar), makes Dugtrio and Garchomp think twice about switching into Blissey and will occasionally cause a freeze.

Physical Wall

Hippowdon @ Leftovers
EVs: 6 Atk / 252 HP / 252 Def
Nature: Impish (+Def, -SAtk)
- Ice Fang
- Slack Off
- Earthquake
- Stealth Rock

Slack Off is a good, reliable form of 50% recovery, Ice Fang easily wards off physical attacking Dragons, and Earthquake can ward off special sweepers such as Heatran and hits hard off 150 Base Power and good Attack. Stealth Rock is a good support option.

The Pokémon Analyses were taken from Smogon, Serebii and Pokéthology. The sprites were taken from Pokémon Elite 2000.

lol i have to say man, this team looks very familiar. looks a lot like the most famous team in pokemon (though the most overrated as well). i don't like the double dragons. they're strong individually, but they share that 4x weakness to ice. with hippowdon as well, that's 3 ice weaknesses with no resistance. take out one of them for a steel type. they don't get hurt by sandstorm and they cover your weaknesses well ;).

I'd definitely say this is CB mamoswine weak. Can I recomend snorlax as a wall/Status Absorber/Phsyical Attacker over T-tar. With this set:
Rest, Sleep talk, Brick Break and Crunch? Would help with your Mamo weak.

 

[Kingdrom]

I'm sorry to say, but a team of six overused pokemon slapped together does not make a good team all the time. This team has an extreme weakness to Fighting and Ice moves. On the physical side, Choice band Weavile is extremely threatening. He outspeeds your whole team OHKOing Porygon-Z a little less than 1/2 the time and 2HKO's Blissey with Brick Break. It is also an obvious OHKO on Tyranitar. His Ice Punch is a guaranteed 2HKO on Hippowodon, an OHKO on Garchomp and Salamence.

I would use Metagross over Salamence: he easily counters Weavile and is resistant to sandstorm. He is best with a CB set imo; set his speed at 208(outspeeds Suicune and Cresselia) or possibly 227 (outspeeds no speed Gliscor and Adamant Tyranitar). Max his attack, put the rest in HP.

Now you have a choice. A Ghost is needed to cover your fighting weakness. Scarfgar does this quite effectively and could work well as a revenge killer. It also helps fill the void where Salamence was. One of your sandstormers should be replaced, as two on one team isn't needed in your case. I would replace it with Tyranitar, as he is only as good a choice bander as Metagross. Metagross has a more reliable STAB in the form of Meteor Mash, Earthquake, and can Pursuit, albeit less effectively. He can even use Bullet punch for revenge killing.

EDIT: Lol yes this is CB mamoswine weak.

Thanks for the advice! I'll take all of that into consideration when I revise my team. Also, I'm still welcoming more suggestions. :D
By the way, what IS the most famous team in Pokemon?
