    I'm not a huge fan for pokemon that are commonly used, as you will notice in my team. I work best using status conditions, so I've tought Toxic to a couple of my pokemon (Not to mention Will-o-whisp to chandelure) and protect to many. This way when a Pokemon is poisoned I can usually stall. Sweepers are my personal weak point, though I haven't tried out choice scarfs yet.

    Mienshao is my current sweeper with a full investment in attack and speed. Hi jump kick is her first, most powerful move.

    Nature: naive
    Movepool: U-turn, Hidden Power, Protect, High Jump Kick
    Item: Choice Scarf

    Hydreigon is built to stay in the game for a while on his own and has a full investment in hp, as well as evenly spread EVs in Def and Sp.Def, this way he can roost, protect, and toxic all day!This hyreigon has worked out very well competitively so far.

    Nature: Mild
    Movepool: Protect, Dragon Rush, Roost, Toxic
    Item: None yet

    Chandelure

    Sp 252/ Sp.Atk 228/ Sp.def 24 / hp 4
    Nature: serious
    Movepool: Overheat, Will-O-whisp, Shadow Ball, Protect (debating on changing to Confuse Ray)
    Item: Leftovers

    I don't have this one yet, but when I do it will be a tank. owo I'll be maxing out Sp.def thats for sure. I think I might teach him thunder wave too.

    Sandshlash is really something I just threw together, he can be switched out, but after looking at his stats and moves I think he would be a good attacker for my team. I'm maxing out his sp.def so he can stay in the game better since sweepers arent my specialty.

    Sandslash

    Max Sp.def / Max HP / 4 Def
    Nature: Brave
    Movepool: Earth Quake, Swords Dance, Slash, Protect

    I honestly don't know what to use for the last pokemon. I have a good Blissey Sp.def wall but I don't know if if that would be a good addition at this point. I'm up for any suggestions and help! I'm not a big smogon fan, usually I get help from youtubers. So it would be nice if I didn't just get a bunch of smogon builds thrown in my face (It's happened a lot) I appreciate honest opinions.
     
    Mienshao appreciates the freedom of switching moves, so Choice Scarf is a terrible option:
    -High Jump Kick
    -Knock Off
    -U-turn
    -Hidden Power (Ice)/Stone Edge/Grass Knot
    Nature: Naive/Jolly
    EVs: 252 Atk/4 SAtk/252 Spe
    Item: Life Orb
    Ability: Regenerator

    Being locked into High Jump Kick is bad because it's an invitation for Ghosts to switch in, cause the move to miss and inflict massive damage to Mienshao as a result. I feel that there are better Fighting Pokemon out there like Conkeldurr that can do Mienshao's job better:
    -Drain Punch
    -Mach Punch
    -Knock Off
    -Ice Punch/Stone Edge
    Nature: Adamant
    EVs: 188 HP/252 Atk/48 SDef/20 Spe or 236 HP/252 Atk/20 Spe
    Item: Assault Vest
    Ability: Guts

    or
    -Bulk Up
    -Drain Punch
    -Mach Punch
    -Knock Off/Ice Punch/Stone Edge
    Nature: Adamant
    EVs: 252 Atk/4 Def/252 SDef
    Item: Leftovers
    Ability: Guts

    The only offensive move Hydriegon has is Dragon Rush. -_- Not only is it inaccurate, but Fairies are immune to it, causing it to struggle against them. There are better Pokemon that can abuse Toxic, you know. Hydreigon is best played as a wall breaker; you're wasting its potential and wide offensive movepool:
    -Draco Meteor
    -Dark Pulse
    -Fire Blast
    -Iron Tail/Superpower
    Nature: Mild/Rash
    EVs: 60 Atk/216 SAtk/232 Spe
    Item: Life Orb

    Chandelure isn't good enough for support purposes because of its meh defensive typing. Like Hydreigon, it should go on the offensive:
    -Fire Blast
    -Shadow Ball
    -Energy Ball
    -Trick/Memento/Hidden Power (Ground)
    Nature: Timid/Modest
    EVs: 4 Def/252 SAtk/252 Spe
    Item: Choice Scarf/Choice Specs
    Ability: Flash Fire/Infiltrator

    or
    -Substitute
    -Pain Split
    -Fire Blast
    -Shadow Ball
    Nature: Timid/Modest
    EVs: 4 Def/252 SAtk/252 Spe
    Item: Life Orb/Leftovers
    Ability: Flash Fire

    Mega Aggron is best played defensively:
    -Stealth Rock
    -Heavy Slam/Iron Head
    -Thunder Wave/Ice Punch
    -Earthquake/Rock Slide
    Nature: Relaxed
    EVs: 252 HP/16 Def/240 SDef
    Item: Aggronite
    Ability: Sturdy

    or
    -Rest
    -Sleep Talk
    -Heavy Slam/Iron Head
    -Earthquake/Ice Punch
    Nature: Relaxed
    EVs: 252 HP/16 Def/240 SDef
    Item: Aggronite
    Ability: Sturdy

    I'd rather use Blissey over Sandslash. It can cover for Aggron's lower Special Defense, but be ready for any Fighting moves that may come your way:
    -Heal Bell/Aromatherapy
    -Soft-Boiled
    -Seismic Toss/Flamethrower
    -Toxic/Thunder Wave
    Nature: Bold
    EVs: 4 HP/252 Def/252 SDef
    Item: Leftovers
    Ability: Natural Cure
     
    Ok then, it looks like my Blissey is a keeper. I'll add it to the RMT. My delima now is what for the 6th pokemon? I'm considering a supporter drifblim.

    Don't even think about Drifblim. It's outclassed by other defensive Ghost Pokemon like Gourgeist. Another Fighting resist like Gliscor helps:
    -Substitute
    -Toxic
    -Protect
    -Earthquake
    Nature: Impish
    EVs: 244 HP/32 Def/224 Spe
    Item: Toxic Orb
    Ability: Poison Heal

    or
    -Earthquake
    -Stealth Rock/Taunt
    -Toxic/U-turn/Knock Off
    -Protect/Roost
    Nature: Impish
    EVs: 244 HP/204 Def/52 Spe
    Item: Toxic Orb
    Ability: Poison Heal

    Defense Isn't quite what I'm looking for, though, mostly what I'm trying to aim towards is a baton pass user. Besides I'm not too thrilled about having a toxic orb Gliscor considering I see them constantly. I used to use buneary but their mostly for speed, and I specialize in tanks, which leads me to Drifblim with his massive HP. I would use something like this baton pass difblim:

    I just believe that leaves blissey up for debate since Drifblim and aggron would be very specially defensive?

    I don't recommend Drifblim at all. As I said before, it outclassed by a lot of things. If you want a fast Baton Passer, use Scolipede:
    -Megahorn
    -Spikes/Toxic Spikes
    -Swords Dance/Toxic Spikes
    -Baton Pass/Earthquake/Rock Slide
    Nature: Jolly
    EVs: 252 Atk/4 Def/252 Spe
    Item: Focus Sash
    Ability: Speed Boost

    or
    -Swords Dance/Iron Defense
    -Substitute/Megahorn
    -Protect/Megahorn
    -Baton Pass
    Nature: Timid/Jolly
    EVs: 248 HP/208 SDef/48 Spe
    Item: Mental Herb/Black Sludge
