Right, so first team was a little bit... dodgy lets say, didn't give it much thought.
This however has a little bit more thought, at least I think so XD
Glance:
Rain Dance team under cover?
Exactly.
This plays the opponent until the last breath then unleashes rain to simply massacre in the late game.
Also, please notice that if needed, Kingdra slots out. Bronzong gets a re-EV, re-move, and Heatran slots right in.
Yanmega - Bulky lead. Gets rid of things.
Bronzong - Rain setter #1 - Support.
Gyarados - Rain Sweeper #1 - Physical Powah!
Forretress - Support #2. Spike, Spin and Explode.
Electivire - Electric absorber from Thunder Wave to Thunderbolt. Mixed attacker.
Kingdra - Rain Sweeper #2 - Special set owns j00. ================================================== ================ 
Yanmega @ Focus Sash
Speed Boost
Modest
104 Def / 252 Sp.A / 152 Spe
~ Bug Buzz
~ HP [Ground]
~ Protect
~ Hypnosis
This is the ••••. The •••• indeed. Custom made Yanmega set that takes an SD Extreme Speed from Adamant MAX Atk Lucario and laughs back with HP Ground. This acts as the main steel killer early game, when the rain is still hidden. Getting rid of Heatran quickly is also nice, and Jirachi doesn't like to play games either as it will almost get 3HKO'd by HP Ground while having a good chance to 2HKO with Thunderbolt. I'll just put it to sleep. Early game, Rain Dance in the eyes of the opponent seems quite aloof. 
Bronzong @ Damp Rock
Levitate
Sassy
252 Hp / 184 Def / 72 Sp.Def
~ Gyro Ball
~ Stealth Rock
~ Explosion
~ Rain Dance
A Bronzong that looks like a standard Zong, has SR, and Gyro Balls just tricks them more into thinking the rain isn't coming. Bronzong is also God for this team, because it is THE main rain starter tha Kingdra depends on and that makes Electivire have that edge with Thunder. Set allows for equal defenses which makes me take hits from both sides of the spectrum with ease. No need for ATK EV's really. 
Gyarados @ Leftovers
Intimidate
Adamant
100 Hp / 124 Atk / 108 Def / 178 Spe
~ Waterfall
~ Stone Edge/Taunt
~ Earthquake
~ Dragon Dance
Another custom spread of mine. This Gyarados confuses the hell out of the opponent. This is because it has the Defensive Gyarados Aura, but then hits really hard with that 124 ATK. 178 Speed allows me to outrun 252 Spe Starmie. Yeah baby, HOT. The only things that MIGHT force me out is Aerodactyl, and Jolteon. But, both like to give hits to other team members. This means that I'll stay in on Raikou that thinks it can outspeed me . Most Gyarados run with speed just enough to outspeed Bulky Star, so Raikou outruns them, not this one. 
Forretress @ Leftovers
Relaxed
252 Hp / 252 Def / 4 Atk
~ Toxic Spikes
~ Rapid Spin
~ Explosion
~ Gyro Ball
So, maybe this and Kingdra are the only Standards here. But, yeah. It works. As I said in the beginning, Spike, Spin and Explode. 
Electivire @ Expert Belt
Motor Drive
Mild
108 Atk / 252 Sp.Atk / 148 Spe
~ HP [ICE]
~ Thunder
~ Cross Chop
~ Earthquake
This is the trump card of this team. Even though many battlers laugh at the thought of mixvire, it is the esense of this teams versatility. Vire comes in on Thunderbolts, Thunder Punches, Thunder Fangs and Thunder Waves aimed at my team from sweepers and stallers and the such. Electivire really stands out when the rain is exposed and Blissey and Celebi are desperately throwing Thunder Waves all over the place. Electivire gladly comes in and does the job. Spread is self explanatory, outspeeding Jolteon and Aerodactyl after the Motor Drive boost. 
Kingdra @ Lum Berry
Swift Swim
Modest
120 HP / 252 SpA / 136 Spe
~ HP [Electric]/Draco Meteor
~ Hydro Pump
~ Rain Dance
~ Ice Beam
Standard really. This is the hidden Poke that rapes the opponent's team in the end, does nicely, and with the rain up helps me take care of alot of things easily. HP Electric is simply for Gyarados, as does little damage to things like Vappy and Slowbro without Life Orb. Draco Meteor hits harder than it for a first shot and does 2HKO sometimes. ================================================== ================
Right. So that's the team. Any comments, point outs, CnC would be much appreciated.
More RMT's later.

i got to say its a pretty good team  , ur team covers all of ur pokemon weaknessess, good lead(good ev spread on yanmega to take hits) and good sweepers such as electivire(one of my personal favourites as electric attacks are common in wifi battles so perfect set up for motor drive), overall i give it 10/10, nothing else to say reli. |  | Revolve around F.E.A.R.
