This team has been winning me a lot of battles lately. I stopped using shoddy some time ago, and have started again 3 days ago, using only this team. Since then my rank has gone up over 200 on the smogon ladder, and I wasn't even spending much time playing per day.

How it works:
- Sand stream
-Stealth Rock
-Toxic Spikes x2
- Knock off if needed
Those do the trick of taking chunks out of HP, the walls do a good job of stalling aswell. Swords Dance Lucario and DD T-tar simply rape, not to forget Vaporeon that gets rid of Salamances and Gyaradoses. There is also a variety of attacks, which can deal with any type effectively.

The only thing I was considering of changing is T-tars EVs, give him 200 in speed, which is enough to outrun a lot of threats, but its been working very well like this too.

Suggestions, comments?

For your Scizor weak, you still hit heracross and breloom too.

k, Light Screen could be considered on here to support your team against stuff like starmie.


Tyranitar @ leftovers
Nature: Jolly

Moves:
1.Earthquake
2.Crunch

Cant sweep without jolly and max speed, adamant is useless on DDTar in all honesty. If you still want adamant, just slap a cb on this.

Moves:
1.Extremespeed / Stone Edge / Crunch

Adamant >>>>>>>>>Jolly or you wont get some of the OHKO's you need, Blaze kick hits nothing that your other moves wont.

Vaporeon @ leftovers
Nature: Bold
