I don't know much about Glaceon, but I know nothing and I mean nothing should ever have Hail. And since Glaceon is Heracross bait anyway Toxic isn't a great choice either. I'd say Glaceon is more like Ice Beam/Wish/Baton Pass/Substitute, Shadow Ball or something else with EVs mostly in HP and Sp.Defense.

Glaceon's ability as well as Blizzard has benefits. I don't know much about it either, but it was the best thing i could come up with.
Sub-Passing is good... i guess.

Glaceon isn't the faster Pokemon in the world, so making it a Hailer is a risk. Although highly beneficial if you can pull it off.
If you are working a Hail team, I recommend a Froslass as a Hailer, pretty standard.
Glaceon @ Life Orb/ Wide Lens (raises accuracy when hit by opponent first)
Modest/Calm/Bold
252 Sp. attack, 128 Def/HP, 128 Sp. Def
-Blizzard
-Wish/Water Pulse
-Substitute
-Shadow Ball/HP Psychic (Heracross)/Baton Pass

the ultimate glaceon:
Glaceon @ Choice Specs
Modest Nature
252 ATK/252 HP/4 SP DEF
-Ice Beam
-Hidden Power Ground/Fighting
-Shadow Ball
-Water Pulse/Wish
i know what you're thinking... wish with choice specs? it's still a good move nonetheless. you only need to use it once and then switch out for another poke to receive the recovery.
you can also try a stalling glaceon:
Glaceon @ Leftovers
Calm Nature
252 HP/108 SP DEF/148 SP ATK
-Ice Beam
-Hidden Power Fighting or Ground
-Fake Tears/Growth
-Wish

I'm only new to the DP stuff coz it just came out here in The Phils, but here goes nothing.
Special sweeper?
Glaceon @ Life Orb
Trait: Snow Cloak
Modest Nature
- Hail
- Blizzard (alleged to get increased accuracy in Hail. Is this true?)
- HP Ground / Rock (I like Rock here, coz there are some common situations I can think of when Rock helps more than Ground.)
- Shadow Ball (For lack of a more powerful Sp.Attack move, besides Hyper Beam. :|)
I hope I helped. I've been inactive for months studying and playing a bit of DP. :|

Well, to put it briefly, A-snow has way too many OU weaknesses. I highly doubt it's useful in any way, since I believe it's slower than Glaceon. :/

HFail shouldn't really be used on anything like I've already said. It's a waste of moveslot and unless you have a team full of Ice types (which isn't a very good idea) it'll hurt you as well. Glaceon without Wish (or at least Wish as an option) also makes me cry. >:

Except that was only for the GSC Generation. Everything else on there has the NYPC moves listed from GSC. Why it's listed, I have no idea, but I'm pretty certain that it doesn't apply to D/P.
