I have yet to play on wifi, but against my friends teams and testing they function well. The heart of the team is Whimsicott. This little guy is devilish. Most of the Pokemon are standard ev sets from Smogon since I can't recall how they are ev trained. This team like I said hasn't been tested on wifi yet, but hopefully soon. The only changes I could see making are for rotom-w, Slowbro, or maybe a mixed dragonite.
Whimsicott@leftovers
Impish
Prankster
Encore
Substitute
Leech seed
U-turn
This is a decent lead. Great as a scout and when timed well can be deadly. Encore on a stat booster is silly. U-turn is good for quick switching into my sweepers, can't keep up a sub, or if it gets taunted. Its the only move that shuts it down. I thought about leading with taunt, but encore is so much better. It always forces the switch when timed correctly.
Tentacruel@lum berry
Bold
Rain Dish
Toxic spikes
Rapid spin
Scald
Hidden power-fire
Lum berry is a fun choice. It helps to avoid status. Which can hurt. This is my rapid spinner and it's high spdef is nice as a mini wall. I have few entry hazards even being a stall team. Hidden power-fire is nice for the steel and grass types that are to get rid of..namely Ferrothron.
Blissey@focus slash
Bold
Natural Cure
Softboiled
Wish
Flamethrower
Toxic
This is my main special wall and wish passer. I feel a wish passer is key to any stall team. Having toxic and flamethrower (for ferrothorn or random guys) I have a slight edge against other walls, and a move that can save me from the taunt. Focus slash is an odd choice I know, but I do find it may can help against strong fighting types. Even sporting 714 hp I feel protected knowing it won't be OTKo. Any suggestion on the item. Leftovers might be better, but I refuse to get rid of Whimsicott.
Espeon@life orb
Modest
Magic bounce
Calm mind
Psychic
Shadow ball
Hidden power fighting
With my Whimsicott and this things can be fun. Especially, if you predict the entry hazard or a status move play..u-turn into this and bounce them back. This is also my main answer to conkeldurr and terrokion. I can't out speed terrokion, but I do for conkeldurr. HP-f gives me good steel/grass/ice coverage. I have considered Slowbro, but magic bounce and it's better speed is too good to pass up.
Terrakion@choice band
Jolly
Justified
Close combat
Stone edge
X-scissor
Sacred sword
Jolly with choice band seemed a good call. Gives my moves much more power and jolly gives me a speed boost. This is my main sweeper. I do try to bring this guy in on stat boosting turns. Whimsicott gets him in pretty easy with u-turn after its taunted or i want it in. With stab close combat I have great answers for tyranitar and even other Terrakion namely..though its a good counter for a few other popular choice in OU. Stone edge as well. The other two for random stuff.
Landorus@expert belt
Naive
Sand force
Earthquake
Stone edge
U-turn
Hidden power-ice
Having expert belt on this guy is key. If they think its choiced they cant make bad switches. Having a stab earthquake is beautiful. U-turn allows me to switch into my blissey to setup the wish pass. Hidden power ice for those bad switches. I dont perfer landorus staying in along time as its main scare is ice..anything ice. It's my back up sweeper and sweeper that deals with everything Terrakion can't.
