Relicanth aka Smitty @ Choice Band (Thinking about C.Scraf as well)
Adamant Nature
Hard Head ability
EV: 12/252/0/244/0/0
Attacks:
- Head Smash!!!
- Double-Edge
- Earthquake
- Waterfall

Physical Sweeper, headsmashes the poop out of pretty much everything.

So there you have it, my UU team. Its my first serious attempt at a team for this tier so sorry if I left holes and what not.
 
relicanth has no item. i suggest scarf to outspeed things to the headsmash especially ninetails. (i think dont quote me on that)
 
Pinsir looks like it can really hurt this team. I suggest a Bulky Altaria over Gastrodon. You can beat Pinsir and Ninetails this way. You can also try Swords Dance Aqua Jet Kabutops over Relicanth. Why? This way, you can Revenge Kill any low health Rock Polish Golem and still be able to beat Altaria.

Hmm seems I forgot to list some items lol my bad. Reli has Choice band at the moment, im testing scarf now.

Testing Altaria now, thanks for suggesting.
 
I'd put a bit more description into stuff, Especially Drifblim.

My opener and general nuissance

Of course it's your opener, Maybe that's why it's first on the list. How is it a general nuisance, how does it fit into your team? How will you use it?
 
Drifblim-
Calm is actually a pretty useless nature on Drifblim, it won't boost your stats that much. You're also using the right ammount of special def EV's (without Calm) as it is and CM on top. In fact if you used a Timid nature you could get the exact same stats but free upto 24 EV's which could go back into any stat you like. I suggest redoing your EV spread.

Ampharos-
If you plan on using Counter you really want a bulkier Amphy with more HP and better defenses for more switch in opportunities. Since you don't want Focus Punch try out these EV's instead, Modest/HP-124/Def-94/S.atk-192/S.def-100. Still hits practically as hard as before but it can now actually take special hits and easily survives even a Scarf'd Pinsir Earthquake. (Just don't try taking boosted hits...)

Gastrodon-
You really should be using Relaxed nature if its meant to take physical hits, since you're using Stockpile the EV's are okay.

Grumpig-
This is fine.

Hitmonlee-
Use Jolly, otherwise should be fine. To be honest a Countersash does not work very well late game and two Counters on the same team is abit risky. Endure or Sub with Liechi Berry tends to be much safer and works in more situations.

Relicanth-
Speed on a CB'er is unecessary, a CB Relicanth should focus more on its bulk. If you want speed than it has better options in a bulkyish Rock Polish set or Scarf'd Relicanth.

Overall-
Typewise only real problem is the 8x grass weakness due to both Relicanth and Gastrodon. Hitmonlee lacks Blaze Kick or Liechi Berry with its Reversal and Drifblim is packing no HP Flying. So what I'm saying is Meganium or Vileplime with Aromatherapy will have an absolute field day with you.
