Trick Room Team
Revamped trick room team (doubles), looking for input! My only real problem so far is that Marowak tends to die very quickly... Thinking about replacing him with Snorlax or Rhyperior, what would be the better option? Smeargle is another problem with Spore and Taunt giving me a hard time

Dusclops can't learn Night Slash. You may be referring to Night Shade.
Having Earthquake and Bonemerang at once on Marowak is redundant. Drop one of them for Double-Edge. If you keep Earthquake, you have more accuracy, though you'll hit your partner too (you have another spread move in Rock Slide) but if you keep Bonemerang, you get to break Substitutes at the cost of less accuracy. Drop Swords Dance for Detect, since setup moves aren't ideal in a doubles environment. |
I'd replace Snorlax, because Thick Fat allows it to cover two of your team's weaknesses, and it's massive Special Defense allows it to tank some average-powered Special Attacks. Unfortunately, even with Snorlax, your team has weaknesses to Steel, Flying or Fairy, so physical Pokemon like Scizor, Honchkrow and Azumarill may cause you problems. Pairing Snorlax with a Steel-type will fix this problem for you.

Mega Mawile is probably the better, now that it packs a Flying and Fairy-type resistance to improve defensive synergy. However, there won't be much of a difference in terms of STAB coverage, as Fire-types resist both Steel/Fairy as well as Grass/Ice. Fortunately, Mawile has the ideal coverage move in Rock Slide to take down these troublesome Fire-types. So, Iron Head, Rough Play, Sucker Punch & Rock Slide is my recommended movepool.
