My team consists of:
------
This team was generally inspired by ChaosZR's fully offensive team, providing raw power to bring down terror on my opponent's team. It has performed quite decently on Shoddy Battle, nabbing me a nice record of 14-4 thus far.

Breloom @ Choice Scarf (ScarfLoom)
EVs: 6 HP / 252 Atk / 252 Spe
Nature: Jolly
Ability: Poison Heal
Moveset:
~ Spore
~ Superpower
~ Stone Edge
~ Seed Bomb
ScarfLoom was a Pokemon I, at first, thought wouldn't work as a lead. But I was wrong and it has come to be very handy for the starting and the late-game metagame. What you do is begin the battle with Spore, immobilizing common leads who usually carry SR. After that, you would switch to another Pokemon that you want your opponent to fear. One thing this has problem with is outspeeding the 130+ Speed Tier list. I wouldn't be able to Spore them because most 130+ Speed leads carry Taunt, which is my main problem. So in that case, ScarfLoom would rain upon them a nice powerful Stone Edge that would release them from their Sashes. Breloom is usually bulky enough to survive a Earthquake or Stone Edge from an Aerodactyl, giving it time to either switch to a counter or kill the prehistoric dinosaur.

Magnezone @ Leftovers (SteelKiller. Buh-bye Skarmory, Foretress, and Scizor!)
EVs: 172 HP / 252 SpA / 84 Spe
Nature: Modest
Ability: Magnet Pull
Moveset:
~ Substitute
~ Magnet Rise
~ Thunderbolt
~ Hidden Power Ice
I hated this thing when I first faught it, but loved it when I used it against a CB Bullet Punching Scizor. This thing's role in my team is to destroy any Steel remnants that tries to set up Spikes, Bullet Punch, or Explode in my face. It has done its job quite effectively so far as well as being an overall good Special Attacker(Launching the strongest non-boosted Thunderbolt in the game). Magnezone switches on a Steel(Excluding Heatran) and usually sets up a safe sub, Magnet Rise, or T-Bolts on the spot. You could opt Explosion over Magnet Rise if you fear Blissey, which is a common switch in. (I wouldn't recommend it though, but meh, I've never tried.)
------
Gyarados @ Leftovers (OH HAI BLISS!)
EVs: 252 HP / 252 Def / 4 SpD
Nature: Impish
Ability: Intimidate
Moveset:
~ Waterfall
~ Dragon Dance
~ Rest
~ Sleep Talk
A full fledged Bulky Water. This thing makes things cry, especially Blissey. First, you switch in on a Blissey who you predict is going to use a T-Wave. Then you Dragon Dance until you are ready to Rest and Sleep Talk. Gyarados could also switch in on a Will-O-Wisp and begin DD'ing, raising its attack and speed to great heights(Of course you'll need to Rest and Sleep Talk to get rid of the 1/2 Attack drop from WoW). Overall, this Pseudo-Dragon is fierce. I see why China loves it much.
------
Salamence @ Choice Band (ChoiceMence)
EVs: 248 Atk / 8 SpA / 252 Spe
Nature: Naive
Ability: Intimidate
Moveset:
~ Outrage
~ Aqua Tail
~ Fire Blast
~ Earthquake
I was never a fan of Salamence, but this thing surely rips things open. Pokemon that switch in on a CB Outrage will surely get hit hard, regardless if it resists it or not. Salamence is a fine CB overall.

Porygon-Z @ Life Orb (Duck...DUCK!)
EVs: 70 HP / 252 SpA / 188 Spe
Nature: Modest
Ability: Download
Moveset:
~ Agility
~ Tri Attack
~ Dark Pulse
~ Hidden Power Fighting
Hehe... I love this... It's arguable to say that this is by far the strongest SpAttacker in the game once it switches in. Pory-Z lures in Blisseys, allowing me to switch into Gyarados to DD up. It can also sweep a whole team though once Blissey is out the picture. I'm still debating if I should opt for BoltBeam rather than DarkPulse and HP Fighting. HP Fighting will land that OHKO on Heatran if I get a boost from Download while Dark Pulse will land a 2HKO on Cressy(Minding that it has a 20% Flinch rate)
------
Azelf @ Leftovers (All-Out Mental Energy)
EVs: 4 HP / 252 SpA / 252 Spe
Nature: Timid
Ability: Levitate
Moveset:
~ Nasty Plot
~ Psychic
~ Flamethrower
~ Grass Knot
Azelf is small, but packs a pretty good punch. It does it's job as a standard Nasty Plotter. There's nothing much to say about little Azelf. Only thing is, I'm still looking for a HP Fighting one.
