fHail- the underestimated skill. Why on earth is it NEVER a team someone wants to play with? It is a very effective form of stall. It's all the offensive sandstorm. Is that the only weather condition? Well, i'll show you it is NOT. Heres my team:

Now, you can obviously see some fire/rock/steel weakness, but that is almost umavoidable on a hail team. Now lets look at the movesets:
http://i223.photobucket.com/albums/dd281/artytimmy/PMD/abomasnow.png@Leftovers
Ability: Snow Warning
EVs: 252 Hp / 252 Spe / 4 Sp. Atk
Nature: Timid
~ Leech Seed
~ Substitute
~ Blizzard
~ Ingrain
Your obvious lead, abomasnow. Basically, I made this thing as bulky as possible, and put in my strategy. Use leech seed, and if possible ingrain. Now, leech is sapping away at the same time of hail, while you are substituting and recovering 24% hp, virtually taking away the sub damage. This strategy WILL if it works beat atleast one pokemon(or half of two, 3rd of three, whatever)

Ability: Ice Body
EVs: 220 HP / 240 Def / 48 Spe
Nature: Bold
~ Protect
~ Substitute
~ Earthquake
~ Surf
EERYONE FEARS THE MIGHTY STALLREIN! He just LOVES to enjoy his stay, and stay LONG. With 32 turns of sustitute and protect, toxic spikes support, and hail, this WILL beat atleast 2 offensive pokemon. There isn't much more to say, though.
http://i177.photobucket.com/albums/w209/ChiNeko_2007/Pokemon/Water/Tentacruel.png@Leftovers
Ability: Clear body
EVs: 252 HP / 120 Def / 136 SpD
Nature: Bold
~ Surf
~ Toxic Spikes
~ Knock Off
~ Rapid Spin/Sludge bomb
Gives me the easy switch i need into toxic spikes, and then gives them back em. Tentacruel also will counter infenape, knock off wall's leftovers, making them vulnerable to hail, and rapid spins orsludge bombs. A great poke for my team.
http://i271.photobucket.com/albums/jj137/SNK575/swampert.png@leftovers
Ability: Torrent
EVs: 236 HP / 220 Def / 52 SpA
Nature: Relaxed
~ Earthquake
~ Blizzard
~ Stealth Rock
~ Roar
This pokemon provides psuedo hazing and stealth rock for my team. It is also effective in it's rock/fire resistances, making it a valuable addition to my team. Now, entry hazards will be a problem for opponents, so, I need something to block rapid spin.
http://i55.photobucket.com/albums/g121/pichincunca/froslass.png@Brightpowder
Ability: Snow Cloak
EVs: 4 Def / 252 SpA / 252 Spe
Nature: Timid
~ Spikes
~ Substitute
~ Thunder Wave/Confuse Ray
~ Blizzard
This is used to stop rapid spinners, set up spikes, and resist fighting. Thunder Wave will disable the opponent effectivly, while confuse ray will do the same but hurt them too, which leads to more effective stalling. Blizzard is some painful S.T.A.B., though thunderbolt provides coverage.
http://i402.photobucket.com/albums/pp104/chibiipompom/hariyama.png@Leftovers
Ability: Thick Fat
EVs: 76 HP / 180 Atk / 252 Def
Nature: Adamant
~ Knock Off
~ Close Combat
~ Ice Punch
~ Stone Edge
Hariyama is the offensive powerhouse of my team, while giving fire resistance, being one of the best t-tar counters in the game, and being able to knock off, becomes very needed in my team. As this guy can survive hits, I can knock off, and then rampage with enomormous physical power. This pokemon is very needed in my team.
GAME PLAN
First of all, obviously, abomasnow will come in and hopefully destroy a pokemon with his Leech Seed/Ingrain strategy. Then, the fun comes. I will either send out tentacruel or swampert, setting up stealth rock/toxic spikes, and countering the probable counter of abomasnow, notably tyranitar or more hopefully infernape. Then, i can hopefully get out froslass to set up spikes and knock off. Then, I send in swampert and start psuedo hazing, doing good damage to the enemy. Then i start stalling. As I absorb hits with a pokemon, there will be massive damage being loaded onto the opponent. Then walrein will take out the rest, and if that doesn't work, hariyama can come in and do some decent damage.
So thats my team. Thankyou.
