Rate My OU Team

Hey guys! I have been doing OU for a while now, and this is so far my best team. It has all gimmicks, which are getting kind of old. Can you guys rate and make suggestions on it?
Thanks,
Wyboth

Arkeis-Metagross%5B1%5D.png


Metal Beast (Metagross) @ Lum Berry
Trait: Clear Body
EVs: 252 HP / 252 Atk / 4 Spd
Adamant Nature (+Atk, -SAtk)
- Stealth Rock
- Meteor Mash
- Bullet Punch
- Explosion

This is my lead, and he is your usual Metagross lead. Usually SR on 1st turn, unless I predict a taunt, then I wall probably meteor mash and finish off with BP. Usually after this, another Poke comes in, and I go boom. Even if I can't set up SR, 5-4 is still awesome.

Cruel Tool (Tentacruel) (M) @ Leftovers
Trait: Liquid Ooze
EVs: 252 HP / 120 Def / 136 SDef
Calm Nature (+SDef, -Atk)
- Toxic Spikes
- Rapid Spin
- Surf
- Sludge Bomb

Tentacruel is my special wall/spinner. Again, same gimmick set. I will usually send him in on something like Gengar, and kill it with surf, or spin on the switch. He can do a good amount of damage to sweepers who don't switch, even though he is more of a wall.

Trollfan (Rotom-S) @ Leftovers
Trait: Levitate
EVs: 252 HP / 40 SAtk / 216 Spd
Modest Nature (+SAtk, -Atk)
- Discharge
- Confuse Ray
- Air Slash
- Shadow Ball

This guy annoys the hell out of people. I can't tell you how many people rage quit because of this guy. He functions as my spinblocker and forces several switches. He can support my team with parafusion, and force switches.

Sweepcune (Suicune) @ Leftovers
Trait: Pressure
EVs: 252 SAtk / 4 SDef / 252 Spd
Timid Nature (+Spd, -Atk)
- Calm Mind
- Surf
- Hidden Power [Electric]
- Ice Beam

Suicune is my bulky special sweeper. Same gimmick set, and often I will enter a CM war with another pokemon using CM, and I will usually win. However, a couple of CMs will usually suffice. This thing is hard to take down when it gets going. Sometimes enemies explode, but it's still a 1-1 loss, and sometimes I will predict it and send in Rotom. Trolol.

Broboom (Breloom) (M) @ Toxic Orb
Trait: Poison Heal
EVs: 12 HP / 252 Atk / 244 Spd
Adamant Nature (+Atk, -SAtk)
- Substitute
- Focus Punch
- Spore
- Seed Bomb

People think they have won when they get to my last pokemon. Then this monstrosity comes out. Breloom acts as my physical sweeper, and can turn battles around completely. Still a gimmick set. Usually I will either Sub or Spore the first time he is sent out, which can cripple counters. I will then proceed to sweep their team until I am outsped and my sub is down, which I will then send in a counter to their pokemon.

Riot Shield (Heatran) (M) @ Life Orb
Trait: Flash Fire
EVs: 252 SAtk / 4 SDef / 252 Spd
Hardy Nature
- Fire Blast
- Earth Power
- Hidden Power [Grass]
- Explosion

Heatran is my special sweeper, and works great with predicting fellow heatran switch-ins with earth power. He is, like every pokemon on my team, a gimmick. Another exploder, just in case the need arises. Even though it has max speed, it seems to get outsped a lot.
 
this thread will be locked probably by Haunter! He will explain the RMT rule 3 which will say you are lacking words. This is what Mod Haunter will quote

Have some actual words in your post beyond your six Pokemon and their moves. Not following this makes your post quite boring to read and rate. All Pokemon should have a good reason for being in your team anyway, so why not post that reason? If you are having trouble with this one, start by giving an explanation for each team member. Why are they there? What role do they serve? How do you get them in? Then, give an explanation of how you would open with the team and how you would go about using it. All of these things help people rate your team and allow us to offer more helpful advice.

This does not mean add one sentence saying "Standard x" or "all-around awesome" after each Pokemon. If you put thought into making the team, you can put thought into posting it.

and this

6. Formatting. Make your post readable. If the format is messy and illegible you will not be likely to receive help and may have your thread locked. Adding pictures to your post can make it more visually appealing too, but pay attention to rule 11. Here is a guideline on how to post each Pokemon.

Pokemon @ Item
Ability:
EVs:
Nature:
- move
- move
- move
- move

*Detailed description of the Pokemon's purpose to the team*


*I was too lazy to actually quote this but it was originally said by Haunter!*

Anyways, please add pictures(optional), but you must add detail. What are we suppose to rate????!!
 
Agreed, no ones going to want to read this, with no pics or anything and you have explain what your trying to do with each mon. Don't leave people guessing man, explain everything! Also leave spaces between your moveset, it's not just boring to read right now, it's hard to read!

Thanks for telling me. I fixed it, but still didn't have much to say, since they are all gimmicks.
