    Rate My Team(s?)

    So I have a team that really needs some feedback. I'd appreciate the help.

    Abomasnow (M) @ Leftovers
    Ability: Snow Warning
    Shiny: Yes
    EVs: 248 HP / 8 Atk / 252 SpA
    Mild Nature
    - Blizzard
    - Giga Drain
    - Focus Blast
    - Ice Shard

    Gets sent out first to get a hail storm going and maybe get an ice shard or blizzard in before dying/being switched out. His moveset mostly reflects that, with Blizzard (a move you're gonna see a lot on this team), Giga Drain and Focus Blast all focusing on raw power.

    Kyurem-Black @ Life Orb
    Ability: Teravolt
    EVs: 252 HP / 252 Atk / 4 SpA
    Naughty Nature
    - Outrage
    - Blizzard
    - Fusion Bolt
    - Focus Blast

    Sweeper that goes out sometime after. Kyurem Black's Outrage is one of the most powerful in the game. Blizzard (again) for the hailstorm bonus, and Fusion Bolt & Focus Blast again on raw power.

    Froslass @ BrightPowder
    Ability: Snow Cloak
    EVs: 248 HP / 8 SpA / 252 Spe
    Timid Nature
    - Destiny Bond
    - Blizzard
    - Hail
    - Thunder Wave

    Covered in another one of my threads:

Bright Powder makes it hard to hit, Snow Cloak makes it even harder. It has hail on it's moveset just in case you can't get it set up beforehand.
    Diancie @ Diancite
    Ability: Clear Body
    EVs: 248 HP / 8 Atk / 252 SpA
    Mild Nature
    - Diamond Storm
    - Moonblast
    - Earth Power
    - Hidden Power [Fire]

    A special sweeper this time, Diancie's moves and mega made it too powerful to be left out. Diamond Storm and Moonblast are all special attack. Earth power and Hidden Power Fire are for type coverage.

    Togekiss @ Leftovers
    Ability: Serene Grace
    EVs: 248 HP / 8 SpA / 252 SpD
    Calm Nature
    - Heal Bell
    - Air Slash
    - Roost
    - Defog

    Meant to be the support of the group, it has Heal Bell and Defog to aid the team get rid of other status effects from the enemy team. Air slash is so it won't be /completely/ useless in battle.

    Skarmory @ Rocky Helmet
    Ability: Sturdy
    EVs: 248 HP / 236 Def / 24 Spe
    Bold Nature
    - Spikes
    - Roost
    - Defog
    - Whirlwind

    The staller, it is remarkably similar to Togekiss, but it focuses the buffs and healing on itself this time. Spikes to discourage the enemy from switching, roost for recovery. Whirlwind can take advantage of spikes and discourage switching further. Defog if the enemy tries to out-stall him.

    EDIT: Ignore the (s?) in the beginning. I was gonna post my other team, but I feel it's pretty well made right now

    Your team has crucial weaknesses to Steel and more importantly, Rock. The only ones not worrying about it are Diancie/Skarmory, and even then, what use are they? Consider a bulky or fast water type.

    That Froslass set sucks, dude. Base 80 Special Attack isn't going to do much, and even then with Snow Cloak, once it runs out, it's out of there. Destiny Bond isn't going to save you sometimes.

    Kyurem-B is meant to be a wallbreaker of sorts, not usually a sweeper. Mixed set is nice, but keep the focus on physical, as it hits hard that way.

    You're having Skarmory do too many jobs. It's also Taunt bait. Switch out Defog/Spikes with Brave Bird. Also, Skarmory isn't going to be outspeeding anything it needs to, so put those Speed EVs somewhere else.

    A hail team is usually good on paper but isn't so lucky in actual battle. Stealth Rock is a major concern and your only hazard remover is weak to it as well (Togekiss). Consider a fast Starmie set or defensive Rotom-W to sort out your weaknesses (preferably switch out Froslass/Abomasnow)
    Was it all worth throwing away?
