Starmie @ Leftovers
~Ice Beam
~Surf
~Recover
~Thunder Wave

STAB Surf anything that takes 2-4x damage or that resists Ice Beam. Recover is just standard, as is this set. Thunder Wave? Of course it does.

Dragonite @ Leftovers
~Surf
~Thunderbolt
~Wing Attack
~HP Fighting

Why on Earth not? Surf gets rid of Rhydon and Golem without a second thought. It also works well for Charizard, Nidoking, and Steelix. Thunderbolt for Skarmory, Starmie and the occasional UU waters that can show up from time to time. Wing Attack for Heracross and Exeggutor. I guess HP Fighting makes Tyranitar a bit sad?

Porygon2 @ Leftovers
~Curse
~Recover
~Ice Beam
~Return

Just the good old Cursegon2 set. I needed a Curser, so I chose one with Dragofail-sweeping capabilities. Instant recovery is nice, and I love Normal + Ice.

http://www.arkeis.com/images/pokemonfactory/heracross.png
Heracross @ Leftovers
~Rest
~Sleep Talk
~Megahorn
~Earthquake

Kill. kill. kill. Not setup fodder. Needed something physical or another and this works well. So very standard and if Snorlax gets phazed and starts sleeping, Heracross can start Megahorning. Although Snorlax is just a pain in general so I doubt that'll happen. Let's just see how this thing fares.

Skarmory @ Mint Berry
~Drill Peck
~Whirlwind
~Rest
~Thief

This is just so incredibly self-explanatory. Shuts down Marowak after I eat my Berry. Snorlax get phazed and I get one instant recovery without any side-effects. Drill Peck is standard and stuff. ^_^

Blissey @ Leftovers
~Softboiled
~Heal Bell
~Light Screen
~Ice Beam

Standard, obvious, whatever. SkarmBliss ftw, lol amirite?

Spoiler:
THIS IS A TEAM

I would probably shove Thunderbolt >> Ice Beam on Starmie as it helps with Growth Vaporeon and suicune =p.

Speaking of Starmie, i have yet to find thunderwave useful really since they just go to blissey anyway, have rest (lax..) on something or heal bell etc. I prefer Reflect but meh, thats up to you.

In addition, standard Electabuzz hurts you pretty badly too (cross chop/thunderbolt/fire punch/ice punch) ouch...i was thinking Machamp >>Hera possibly ? It at least gives you a bit of defense against it. Crit hit rate of Cross Chop is pretty cool for long drawn out stall wars too and can screw up stuff. Something like Rest/STalk/Cross Chop/Rock Slide or HP bug ? (Rock Slide hits Fliers like Zapdos, whereas Hidden Power Bug covers Starmie, Exeggutor etc) so thats up to you. You can use EQ in that last slot too for raikou, but meh.

Growl on Blissey is pretty sweet for cursers too if you are up against one as last poke in which situation you cant PHaze them with skarm, Growl stalls them out of pp lol. Something to consider =3.


Curse Porygon 2 is cool.
