well here it is, the basic goal of the team is combined the power of sweepers and the sturdiness of walls, as a result it's was kind of hard to get right, i think it's pretty good as half of the loses the team has had so far are do to errors on my part or untimely critcal hits.

First off, I sincerely hope that you meant Special Defense, not Speed, on Bronzong.

Your team doesn't appear to have much speed. The most Speed EVs on any of your Pokémon is 36 (on Zapdos), and you have no higher-priority moves on your team. You do have Thunder Wave on Gallade, but but, from experience on Shoddy, I've learned that a single paralyzer doesn't speed up a team enough. In addition to that, nothing on your team has immediate, switch-in-and-destroy power. All four of your sweepers use set-up moves. If you make a mistake and let a Gyarados get a few Dragon Dances, for example, you don't appear to have anything that could switch in and KO or revenge-kill it.

Moral of the story: SPEED!

Stall teams can still work... but yeah... wheres' toxic spikes? Where's toxic? Those are the things stall teams need most. Drapion COULD fit toxic spikes in, since you are going bulky. If you want a sweeper drapion, max out speed. (Unless you are accupressuring up)

Spiritomb looks like it could be replaced for a toxic user, it overlaps roles and fighting doesn't look like a problem for your team.

you could try the bulk up galade set, but shadow sneak is a sucky move.
