Snow Warning in Effect

Well I've been away from competitive battling for a while I'm sorry to say, so here is my attempt at a Hail Team for my return. It's a rough sketch right now. Tear away.

Abomasnow @ Leftovers
Snow Warning
252 Hp/ 126 Atk/ 126 SAtk
Sassy
-Blizzard
-Earthquake
-Wood Hammer
-Focus Punch

My starter. Sets up Hail and kinda necessary for the team; hence the theme. Blizzard for the 100% accuracy and STAB. Wood Hammer is to take out Hippodon and for STAB as well. No EV's in speed so he can remain faster Hippodon (so he can kill it) and slower than Tyranitar (so he can get the weather).

Walrein @ Leftovers
Ice Body
252 Hp/ 126 Def/ 126 SDef
Bold
-Blizzard
-Surf
-Toxic
-Substitute

Basically Subs, poisons, heals, repeats. Blizzard and Surf are for STAB and to help wear down opponents PKMN. Thinking that Protect might be a better fit than either Surf or Blizzard to keep the stalling effect going.

Mamoswine @ Brightpowder
Snow Cloak
6 Hp/ 252 Atk/ 252 SpD
Jolly
-Earthquake
-Ice Shard
-Stone Edge
-Ice Fang

All out physical attacker. Ice Shard is to get in that quick hit when needed. Brightpowder and Snow Cloak help to keep him in the game. Ev's in spped are to make him as fast as possible.

Froslass @ Brightpowder
Snow Cloak
6 Hp/ 252 SAtk/ 252 SpD
Timid
-Thunderbolt
-Spikes
-Blizzard
-Destiny Bond

Sorta fills the special role. I think Destiny Bond is and incentive to leave her alone so she can spike although I haven't seen it on other sets of this PKMN. She is a great counter to Fighting moves and keeps Spikes in play. Works with Swampert and his Stealth Rock.

Swampert @ Leftovers
Torrent
252 Hp/ 126 Atk/ 126 SDef
Sassy
-Stealth Rock
-Waterfall
-Earthquake
-Roar

Sets up Stealth Rock and acts as the main tank. Counters Rock, Fire and Fighting. Leftovers are there to counter the effects of Hail. Works in tandum with Spikes, toxic and Hail to wear the enemy down. Might replace Earthquake with Rest.

Dugtrio @ Silk Scarf
Arena Trap
6 Hp/ 252 Atk/ 252 SpD
Jolly
-Earthquake
-Stone Edge
-Shadow Claw
-Return

Revenge killer to knock out any enemy PKMN who could sweep the team as he can trap them and hit hard and fast.

The Ice type has a ton of weaknesses but I think I have most if not all of them covered with typing and function on this team. Lucario is my only real worry.
 
3. 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're 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.
