-Earthquake
-Stone Edge
-Megahorn


Slowking @ Lum Berry
Quiet/Own Tempo
252 sp. atk/ 250 sp. def/ 8 hp
-Trick Room
-Surf
-Grass Knot/Flamethrower/Nasty Plot
-Ice beam/Nasty Plot


Dragonite @ Life Orb
Quiet/Inner Focus
252 sp. atk/ 126 def/126 sp. def/6 atk (Unsure about EVs)
-Draco Meteor
-Ice Beam
-Surf
-Superpower

help on movesets and EVs would be appreciated.

Mhmm


Slowking @Leftovers
Quiet/Own Tempo
212 HP / 44 Def / 252 Sp Att
-Trick Room
-Surf
-Grass Knot/Flamethrower/Nasty Plot
-Ice beam/HP Electric/Nasty Plot

Go with those EV's. Calm mind is also an option...The last slots are really preference, but NP is always nice to boost his power.


Dragonite @ Life Orb
Quiet/Inner Focus
252 sp. atk/ 126 def/126 sp. def/6 atk (Unsure about EVs)
-Draco Meteor
-Ice Beam
-Surf
-Superpower

Unsure about this...Dragonite seems a bit too fast for trick room, even with the quiet nature. If you're going mixed, you shouldn't really be wasting EVs on his defenses. I'd shift some to Attack and HP.

help on movesets and EVs would be appreciated.
"Since my trick room team failed like John McCain winning Presidency"

^eww...McCain could epicly pull of a Trick Room team.

You'll need a bit of support from your other team members, but it's a decent start I suppose.

Quilava / Typhlosion cannot learn Explosion. Focus Punch so you're not walled by Snorlax / Blissey / Heatran.

sorry I meant eruption. And since it hits two opponents, it would be handy in two on two battles right? and any advice for a hold item?

Here's your standard fare Typhlosion

Scarf lead
[email protected] Scarf
Mild or Rash
144atk/252sp.atk/112 speed

Eruption
Focus Punch
Overheat/Will-o-Wisp
HP Ice/Earthquake

Typhlosion is a great starter with a massive 150 BP Eruption at hand, and it will always start at full power thanks to it leading and SR isn't out yet. Focus Punch with the atk EVs 2HKOs Blissey easily. Overheat takes place for the main STAB when Eruption gets weak, but Will-O-Wisp is always fun to toy with. HP Ice is strongly perferred over Earthquake, but it does destroy Flash Fire Pokemon like Heatran and Houndoom easily.

It randomly chooses the move?

Standard means like...a certain generic set.

E.g;

[email protected] Scarf
Levitate
4 HP / 252 SpA / 252 Spe
Modest/Timid
Shadow Ball
Focus Blast
Trick
HP Ice / Thunderbolt.


^ That's pretty much what a standard set for Gengar is.
So like on the regular/common ground?

No, it doesn't, YOU are the person with the power to choose the move.

If you really want to use it in that kind of team, use Quiet, to be even faster while Trick Room is still activated.

I know he's rare nowadays, but wouldn't Skarmory be a great switch-in to Scizor?

Yep its a pretty decent check/counter to it.


However, watch out for the occasional LO SD Super Power

66.17% - 77.54%

252 hp / 200 def skarmory takes that from adamant +2 LO Super Power

Just stay at high health and sure.

Heracross and Lucario are two big ones in that line. Get a Sub, Swords Dance, and then try to Sub down to a Salac Berry, and proceed to sweep.

Heracross, Gliscor, Infernape, Lucario, Scizor, Weavile, Rhyperior, Leafeon...

Yeah, those came to mind first. ._.; There's over a hundred Pocket Monsters that can learn Swords Dance + Substitute if I recall correctly, just gotta find what you need in terms of resistances, etc and who fits the niche in that slot of your Battle Tower team.
