VGC 2010 Team (No, Is Not N00b RainDance)

Please keep in mind, this is VGC battle. No stealth rock. Mostly brute offence and Raindance. 4-4 Double battle, 50 all. Please help me get my team to the best it can be. Also, some ubers can be put in. If you think a pokemon can be switched out for another pokemon because it plays a better role, I'm open to it. Also, please keep this a trick room team. I also want to counter rain dance teams. Now, for the team. By the way, it's revamped from a old team I made. It's changed alot, so it might as well be a whole nother team.

The Leads

Bronzong @ Lum Berry
Relaxed / Levitate
252 HP, 152 Atk, 8 Dfnc, 96 SpD
Trick Room
Explosion
RockSlide
Reflect

This is the essential component to this team. Set up Trick Room, Explode or Reflect to protect Shuckle from dyeing. At all costs set up Trick Room. Without it this team dies a terrible failure. It is a possibility to just switch out, but thats a low possibility it an enemy can beat zong AND take an Explosion.


Smeargle @ Sirtus Berry
Relaxed / Own Tempo
200 HP, 200 Dfnc, 110 SpD
Protect
FollowMe
DarkVoid
FakeOut

Without TR, I'm screwed. So when a Taunt or powerful move comes at Zong, I either FakeOut or FollowMe. If two attacks come at Zong, damage and Taunt, I FM. But if only one pokemons going to try to mess with Zong, I FakeOut. I then either use Protect or DarkVoid, depending on what I need to do with Bronzong. And then when my next poke comes out I FM to make sure I can get off any move I need.

The Back-Up

Shuckle @ Focus Sash
Relaxed / Sturdy
252 HP, 58 Atk, 200SpD
Power Trick
Stone Edge/Gyro Ball (Tell me Which!)
Earthquake
Protect
This is the team’s most powerful sweeper. After using Trick Room with Bronzong the sweep begins. With Shuckle’s poor defenses after Power Trick the Focus Sash is essential protection again any priority move such as Bullet Punch, or Aqua Jet. Hopefully a Reflect will have been set up by Zong. Explosion is helpful for any Pokémon such as Scizor that might hurt Shuckle while it protects.

Zapdos @ MachoBrace
Pressure / Quiet
252 SpA, 252 HP, 4 Dfnc
HeatWave
ThunderBolt
HP Ice
Detect

Everyone knows the CeleTran comob. They protect each others, and are hard to beat in Singles and Doubles. I found the perfect partner for Shuckle to do the same. If Smeargle goes down, then when Shuckle needs a partner, in comes Zapdos. HeatWave and T-Bolt prevent being completely being walled by Water and Steel types with levitate or 1/2 flying type. The importance of Detect and Protect is high, so Zapdos has Detect. (Protect is unoriginal!) Hidden Power Grass is just for coverage against Swampert type pokemon. Roost isn't a viable option with Shuckle and EQ. Zapdos is a very helpful part of the team, and I hope it works well. By the way, MachoBrace is used to lower speed, not raise attack.


The Fillers

Slowking @ Leftovers
Own Tempo / Quiet
252 SpA, 252 HP, 4 SpD
TrickRoom
NastyPlot
IceBeam
GrassKnot

TrickRoom. It only lasts 5 turns. you need at least two viable TR users on a team like this. Thats exactly why I have Slowbro. If I have some info on the other leads, I either use Slowking or Bronzong. If I need a little more offence, I use Slowking and GrassKnot those Groudons and Kyogres. Ice beam takes care of those annoying little Zapdos paired with Groudon.

Snorlax @ Chesto Berry (Any other options?)
Sassy / Thick Fat
220 SpD, 168 HP, 120 Dfnc
Curse
FirePunch
SelfDestruct
Return

Need mcuh explaination? Curse, raise my defence and offence, then hit away. Anyone have any better itmes then Chesto? Post below.

Sorry for the double post, but I made a HUGE change to the team! I'm going to update it with Snorlax and Slowking.

Yes Taunter will ruin both of your leads. If they both get taunted Smeargle can only use fake out and Bronzong can only explode or use rock slide. Also, if its Skarmory or Aggron that's taunting, you pretty much have no choice but to switch. And for Zapdos you talked about hidden power grass to cover Swampert, but listed hidden power ice as its move? Also, what if your opponent has a stall team and Trick Room runs out? Those are just a few things that I saw, a very good idea and concept and I think it'll get you far, but if you face a person with some of the above sets, you may have a good challenge. Good Luck!!!

Yes, I have my team made! EV's, IV's, natures. I can still change it, but yeah. Taunt can't beat Zong because I have FollowMe. Then I just switch in Shuchkle to take the splode and get ride of the taunt on Smeargle. But thanks. Sorry about that Swampert thing. I'll change it later.
