Crazy, Fun, Worthless Team needing rating
 
I know a (P)hazer will decimate this, and I also know this team is pretty crappy. But it's fun, and that's what counts.

Ninjask (M) @ Liechi Berry
Trait: Speed Boost
EVs: 252 HP / 6 Def / 252 Spd
Timid Nature (+Spd, -Atk)
- Baton Pass
- Silver Wind
- Substitute
- Swords Dance

Gorebyss (M) @ Leftovers
Trait: Swift Swim
EVs: 220 Def / 70 Spd / 220 SDef
Bold Nature (+Def, -Atk)
- Amnesia
- Baton Pass
- Ice Beam
- Iron Defense

Smeargle (M) @ Leftovers
Trait: Own Tempo
EVs: 252 Def / 6 Spd / 252 SDef
Timid Nature (+Spd, -Atk)
- Lock-On
- Mean Look
- Sheer Cold
- Spore

Umbreon (M) @ Leftovers
Trait: Synchronize
EVs: 6 HP / 252 Def / 252 SDef
Bold Nature (+Def, -Atk)
- Baton Pass
- Mean Look
- Taunt
- Wish

Shedinja @ Focus Band
Trait: Wonder Guard
EVs: 6 HP / 252 Atk / 252 Spd
Naughty Nature (+Atk, -SDef)
- Baton Pass
- Protect
- Shadow Ball
- Silver Wind

Celebi @ Leftovers
Trait: Natural Cure
EVs: 252 HP / 129 Def / 129 SDef
Calm Nature (+SDef, -Atk)
- Baton Pass
- Heal Bell
- Leech Seed
- Recover

The idea is pretty obvious. Build up speed, defenses, use Mean Look, pass in the Smeargle, then go insane. The Shedinja is just there for a filler, I couldn't think up another kill Pokemon that fit into this whole thing. Plus Swords Dance helps him out. Any comments or suggestions that don't involve "Thz sux0rz" will be appreciated.

Ninjask (M) @ Lefties
Trait: Speed Boost
EVs: 252 Atk / 6 HP / 252 Spd
Adamant Nature (+Atk, -SAtk) or Jolly Nature (+Spd, -SAtk)
- Baton Pass
- Silver Wind/Aerial Ace/Hidden Power Flying/Protect
- Substitute
- Swords Dance

Why to keep Silver Wind if you don't have any EVs in attack and the nature lowers its attack stat anyway? 10% is a very low chance to have the "all-stat-increasing" effect. You can use it as a sweeper, too or you can just give it Protect to get some more speed.

Gorebyss (M) @ Leftovers
Trait: Swift Swim
EVs: 220 Def / 70 Spd / 220 SDef
Bold Nature (+Def, -Atk)
- Amnesia
- Baton Pass
- Ice Beam
- Iron Defense

Nothing really wrong here.

Smeargle (M) @ Leftovers/Focus Band
Trait: Own Tempo
EVs: 252 Def / 6 Spd / 252 SDef
Timid Nature (+Spd, -Atk)
- Lock-On
- Mean Look
- Sheer Cold
- Spore

Even maxing out the defense EVs won't help you. Don't build this team around him.

Umbreon (M) @ Leftovers
Trait: Synchronize
EVs: 6 HP / 252 Def / 252 SDef
Bold Nature (+Def, -Atk)
- Baton Pass
- Mean Look
- Toxic
- Wish

If you have Mean Look, then you might want to try to "Toxictrap" the opponent.

Shedinja @ Lum Berry
Trait: Wonder Guard
EVs: 6 HP / 252 Atk / 252 Spd
Naughty Nature (+Atk, -SDef)
- Baton Pass
- Protect
- Shadow Ball
- Silver Wind

Shedinja? Don't use it in this team, because if Tyranitar switches in, the BP chain will end. That goes for Spikes, status effects, etc., too.
Try maybe a Scizor instead:

Scizor (M) @ Leftovers
Trait: Swarm
EVs: 105 HP / 103 Def / 223 Spd / 79 SDef
Impish Nature (+Def, -SAtk)
- Baton Pass
- Iron Defense
- Silver Wind
- Swords Dance


Celebi @ Leftovers
Trait: Natural Cure
EVs: 252 HP / 129 Def / 129 SDef
Calm Nature (+SDef, -Atk)
- Baton Pass
- Heal Bell
- Leech Seed
- Recover

It won't be able to BP if Skarm is around, so watch out for that.

The idea is pretty obvious. Build up speed, defenses, use Mean Look, pass in the Smeargle, then go insane. The Shedinja is just there for a filler, I couldn't think up another kill Pokemon that fit into this whole thing. Plus Swords Dance helps him out. Any comments or suggestions that don't involve "Thz sux0rz" will be appreciated.

Your strategy won't work against any pokemon holding Lum or Chesto Berry, having Vital Spirit or Insomnia as a trait (they're not that common, but still), have Extremespeed/Mach Punch/Quick Attack or know Roar/Whirlwind or Haze. I'm sure that there are many other things, too that will ruin the fun, so don't build your team around Smeargle.
Maybe try this Smeargle set:

Smeargle (M) @ Leftovers
Trait: Own Tempo
EVs: 129 Def / 252 Spd / 129 SDef
Timid Nature (+Spd, -Atk)
- Baton Pass
- Belly Drum
- Seismic Toss/Substitute/Ingrain
- Spore

It can also BP now and has Belly Drum to max attack if you're lucky, then pass it onto Ninjask or Scizor/Shedinja(if you want to keep it) to OHKO what they can. It has S-Toss to try to do some damage if it's your last pokemon or there's Sub if you're lucky enough to pass it onto something else. Ingrain is also a choice so that your chain won't have to fear a Roar or Whirlwind.

I know this is a fun team, but it rather won't work with your strategy. =/

Hope this helps. Well, good luck!

Mr. Mime is a needed part of any Baton Pass team, for Trickband(mean looked thanks to umbreom), Soundproof(Roars), and Psychic(Weezing).

and apprenently, it ends with Smeargle. that's alot of passing just to KO 5 pokemon.

and Sheddy is uneeded.

I generally kill weezing with Mr. Mime and then proceed to stat up, I don't like to ML and Sleep him and hope he stays that was for 5 turns while I set up
