I know I'll probably get laughed at for this team, like my previous team, but hey, for some reason, this is where I go for help.

And I don't really know much about EV's , but I'm pretty sure they're there. This is In-Game

Reflect on Magcargo is doing more for your team than Light Screen is, and even then, that's a job better suited for Claydol over its Rest. Charizard or Skarmory would be a better choice for that slot if you ask me. Stick Shell Bell on Porygon2 so Blastoise can get leftovers if you can't obtain 2 more Leftovers.

Also take note of Blastoise's superb usefulness with Surf during Vileplume's Sunny Day.

Watch out for Heracrossesss!

Porygon2 can take quite a few hits! Even from my jacked up Metagross. And by a few I mean roughly two. Porygon2 is one of those Pokemon that's fun to show off, but really isn't effective for battling. I'd switch him for a good psychic type.

Magcargo is meh. One of the weaker Fire types in game. I was always impressed with Torkoal, who can pack a punch and be able to take quite a few hits. In game, at least. I'm impressed you were able to calculate things right to get the correct HP, though.

Vileplume is one of my old favourites. One of the better SunnyBeamers, if you ask me. Again, kudos for being able to get proper HP moves.

Rest
Rapid Spin Explosion

Rapid Spin really isn't needed for an in-game team... I would replace it with Explosion, so you can make Claydol go boom when he's served his purpose. Rest isn't all that effective on Claydol, although he can serve as a decent dual Wall. Reflect and Light Screen are both viable options for Claydol. I have one myself, but I'm not too too impressed with him. I still love him anyways!

Rest
Curse
Return

Snorlax is one of those Pokes I hold a grudge against, ever since it took out my Blissey in BF. Return is okay, but also consider Headbutt, just for the chance of paralysis. Also consider a Chesto Berry, for a free Rest. This guy is a tank, and can take out any Special Wall, and many Special Sweepers.

Rest

Blastoise isn't too bad for a Water Poke. I'd take Milotic or Swampert over him any day, but Blastoise has some tanking capability. I wouldn't rely too much on rest, seeing as how it takes two turns, and is most effective on Walls... but in game, you should be fine.

Rate Away
Overall, decent team, save for two Pokes. But in-game, any well trained Poke can be effective. Also, unless you're working on Battle Frontier, I would give all of these Leftovers. Don't waste room on Shell Bells...they're cheap Leftover wannabes.

Also, could I interest you in any Steel pokemon? It's my favourite type, so I like to make sure people know the option is open. :-)

Porygon2 is really meant just to status and Finish off anything that feels like lingering around. I highly doubt you'll keep it in one on one with a Metagross. That's what Blastoise is for.

I am definitely waiting for PorygonZ in D/P. And I think I will switch out Macargo.

Ya, PorygonZ is a slight drop in Defense, but Special Attack sharply increases to I think about that of a Kadabra. Correct me if I'm wrong.

It is what you asked us to do in the title.

Your only problem is about Heracross. 4/6 of your team is owned by Hera. Metagross can hold Hera with a Meteor Mash.

How is Heracross the only problem if he has stuff like Macargo and Blastoise there, the team is pretty terrible if you ask me.
