Rate My Team : Dual Screens Hyper Offense w/ Lucha As A Sweeper.

So, i ain't good at building teams and would really appreciate if anyone could help me knowing what could i do to improve my team.
So far, i have this :
Hawlucha Sticker for iOS & Android | GIPHY

Hawlucha @ Power Herb
Ability: Unburden
EVs: 252 Atk / 4 Def / 252 Spe
Adamant Nature
- Swords Dance
- Sky Attack
- Close Combat
- Acrobatics
Hawlucha white the power herb has a 140 base power stab and, combined with Grimmsnarl's walls, it can sweep endgame as one of te fastest pokémons of the OU. Acrobatics is a powerful stab that has a 110 base power after the power herb gets consummed. Close combat is its second stab, that lowers his defenses tough, walls are useful to help Hawlucha not to get OHKO'd by any priority move.hawlucha has swords dance as an attack boosting move, and because he's the fastest pokémon of the OU (after his talent gets activated) i gave him the adamant nature so he can deal more damages.

Hatterene (F) @ Life Orb
Ability: Magic Bounce
EVs: 200 HP / 252 Atk / 56 Spe
Adamant Nature
- Swords Dance
- Play Rough
- Psycho Cut
- Nuzzle
Cinderace should now be replaced by Hatterene as Dhdux adviced me. Its major utility is to prevent ennemies from setting up entry hazards. he might also be able to setup by its own with the swords dance. Nuzzle is a really good option to paralyzes threats and so, ouspeed them. Like Dhdux said, Hatterene oustpeeds toxa, can paralyze it and one shot it after one Swords dance. Generally Hatterene can cheese by being played physically and with its great bulk can survive non super effective hits and deal a big ammount of damages.
Grimmsnarl - #861 - Serebii.net Pokédex

Grimmsnarl @ Light Clay
Ability: Prankster
EVs: 92 HP / 252 Atk / 164 Spe
Adamant Nature
- Reflect
- Light Screen
- Taunt
- Spirit Break
Grimmsnarl is here to setup the screens, he's to be used as a typical prankster user, it creates situations for some of my weak pokémons like Hawlucha and Bisharp. It can wall Dragapult and some defensive pivots such as Kommo-o, Mandibuzz, Clefable ... It also is useful to prevent defog users from removing hazards. Grimmsnarl can also prevent settup pokémons likeCloyster from Shell smashing with its prankster taunt. I gave it Spirit break as an attack to lower Clefable's spe.attack or Hatterene's.

Dragapult @ Choice Specs
Ability: Infiltrator
EVs: 252 SpA / 4 SpD / 252 Spe
Timid Nature
- Shadow Ball
- Draco Meteor
- Fire Blast
- U-turn
Dragapult is here to put put pressure on physical defensive walls such as Corviknight, Ferrothorn, Melmetal ... Dragapult also is useful to OHKO some offensive pokémon with high speedbut that still get outspeeded by Dragapult, like : Excadrill, Gengar, Dracovish, Terrakion and much more. I gave it u-turn to get some more momentum and fire blast to overcome steel types.Shadow Ball and draco meteor are obviously here for the stabs, combined to the choice specs it can break defensive walls or just deny pivots and offensive mons
Rotom sprites gallery | Pokémon Database

Rotom-Mow @ Choice Scarf
Ability: Levitate
EVs: 4 Def / 252 SpA / 252 Spe
Timid Nature
IVs: 0 Atk
- Volt Switch
- Leaf Storm
- Trick
- Will-O-Wisp
Rotom-Mow is here specially as a Zeraora check, that can try to switch-into his attacks or revenge kill it with leaf storm. Rotom can burn Dracovish and help my team killing Corviknights by tricking its item or volt switching into Dragapult's fire blast / Bisharp's swords dance. In broad strokes, rotom helps my team getting momentum and is a fast defensive pivot, who canput high pressure on some OU stealth Rocks users such as Seismitoad, Terrakion, hippodown ...
Rotom-Mow absolutely destroys rain cores / teams .
np: USUM Stage 9 - Ready or Not (Bisharp, Latios and Latiosite ...

Bisharp @ Black Glasses
Ability: Defiant
EVs: 252 Atk / 4 Def / 252 Spe
Adamant Nature
- Swords Dance
- Iron Head
- Knock Off
- Sucker Punch
Bisharp puts pressure with his incredible attack stat combined with sucker punch and swords dance. It is in the team as a wallbreaker, to help me against clefs and fairy types in general.With its access to swords dance, i can check excadrills, dragapult, zeraora and basically every fast physical sweeper who could put a high pressure by outspeeding my dragapult.Bisharp is also useful for other deffensive threats such as toxapex, Corviknight and Ttar. Here my Bisharp is played adamant because I don't think outspeeding dracovish is useful.

you should remove cinderace for hatterene. its better for preventing hazards since you have a screen setter, and you don't want to court change those screens away
here's my hatterene set

Hatterene (F) @ Life Orb
Ability: Magic Bounce
EVs: 200 HP / 252 Atk / 56 Spe
Adamant Nature
- Swords Dance
- Play Rough
- Psycho Cut
- Nuzzle

this hatterene outspeeds toxapex, the worst pokemon in existence. your team already struggles with toxapex, so adding this would help your team out a bit

Hi, welcome to Smogon! I'm locking your RMT for the time being as the forum rules require that you provide at least 3 lines of descriptions for each Pokemon to explain their roles. Please read the rules carefully and take a look at Team Showcase to see the level of detail we require. PM me with updated descriptions and I'll be happy to unlock this.
