The Counter Game

Starmie @ Life Orb
6 HP/252 SpAtk/252 Spd
-Surf
-Thunderbolt
-Ice Beam
-Psychic
Blissey @ Leftovers
Bold@ 252 Def, 188 HP, 108 Sp. Atk
(Serene Grace)
Ice Beam
Calm Mind
Thunder
Softboiled

Absorbs Starmie's hit, CM's and uses Thunder to kill it. Even if Starmie survives, it WILL be paralyzed.
 
Heracross@Choice Band
Guts- Adamant
252 Att/252 Speed/6 HP
Stone Edge
Pursuit
Close Combat
Megahorn

Non boosted ice beams and thunders do not really scare heracross. If heracross happens to become paralyzed, a guts boosted pursuit will really hurt.
 
Swellow@Focus Sash
Aerial Ace
Endeavor
HP Fighting
Quick Attack

Comes in on anything, OHKOs with AA, Endeavors the switch-in, then it's a prediction game. Do you Quick Attack to kill off another one, or Endeavor again in case they EXPECT Quick Attack and switch out again?

The counter should be something that can suck up Endeavor and not get killed by Quick Attack or Aerial Ace.

Rhyperior @ Leftovers
Trait: Solid Rock
252 HP / 252 Def / 4 Atk
Nature: Adamant
- Stone Edge
- Earthquake
- Avalanche
- Toxic

Toxic is their so it won't trigger Focus Sash and kills it with Stone Edge even though it has Guts it won't do that much. It also comes on any of Swellows moves with ease.
 
To the Rhyperior...

Vaporeon @ Leftovers
152 hp / 252 spatk / 104 def
Bold
-Surf
-Wish
-Ice Beam
-HP Ground

EVs and Nature to help absorb Rhyperior's huge attack. Hopefully comes in on Avalanche, and starts out with Wish, to recover from the next attack. Surf to exploit Rhyperior's x4 water weakness. Ice Beam and HP Ground for any grass or electrics that might come in later.
 
Cresselia @Leftovers
Bold, 252 HP/Def, 6 SD
Calm Mind
Psychic
Ice Beam
Moonlight

Comes in and sets up on Vaporeon. Enough said.
 
Metagross@Salac Berry
Agility
Meteor Mash
Earthquake
Explosion

Come in, Agility, pound it out with MM, pray Salac activates if Cresselia fights back, then sweep if possible when Cressy switches/faints.
 
You mean Liechi >> Salac right?

Swampert @ Leftovers
252 HP/whatever

240 HP, Mostly Defense, Some other stuff (up to you)
~Grass Knot
~Substitute
~Calm Mind

Tyranitar @ Leftovers
Adamant@ 252 Atk, 176 Spd, 80 HP
Stone Edge
Earthquake
Dragon Dance
Taunt

Needs no explanation. Sand Stream negates your sash, Sucker Punch fails as I dance, and I use Stone Edge to kill you.

Gliscor @ Leftovers
Impish- Sand Veil
252 HP/252 Def/4 Att
Earthquake
Ice Fang

Knock Off

oh yeah. EQ, stone edge, and aerial ace do crap. My Gliscor knocks off lefties, and then Ice Fangs away.

Blastoise @ Leftovers
Bold- Torrent
252 HP/252 Def/ 4 Sp. Attack

Surf
Ice Beam
Roar
Mirror Coat

I know it's not a hard counter but I wanted to get some Blastoise action in. Basically it comes in, take the Earthquake, and Ice Beams. Predicting a Roost you would use Surf instead of Ice Beam on the second turn for extra STAB damage (probably KO, too).

Roar is for the revenge killer, same with Mirror Coat. Use as predicted.
 
Mr. Mime @ Leftovers
Timid
252 SpAtk / 252 Speed / 6 Hp
Soundproof
-Calm Mind
-Hypnosis
-Psychic
-Thunderbolt

Immune to roar and it's base 120 SpDef will help it take Surf and Ice Beam like nothing. Hypnosis will put Blastoise to sleep and help it set up Calm Mind.
 
Claydol @ Leftovers
Modest
252 Sp.Def, 252 HP /6 S.Atk
Earth power
Shadow Ball
Rest
Sleep Talk

Immune to TBolt and resists Psychic.
Shadow ball for SE damage, and Earth Power for stab. Takes Hypnosis, sleep talks, and hopes for damage.

~Ice Beam
~Crunch
~Earthquake
~Stone Edge

Despite STAB, Earth Power wont hurt too much. OHKO with Crunch. This thing can be such a beast.
