Emperor AzeDos InfernHippo's tomb / OU Tier

I may not have made it clear in my post, but I think Rotom>>Zapdos. I also made the rate that CBMamo could go over P-2, since Gyarados is taken care of by Rotom. Although I do realise that SoulRed should keep P-2, since I did not think about his Heatran weakness.

On that note, your lineup in my opinion should be: Hippow/Rotom-h/Scarfape/P-2/CBScizor/Empoleon
 
I made the changes. On a different note, how much percentage do you think P2's HP fighting will do to a heatran? Just curious because it seems on the face of it that a heatran could still KO P2 before P2 could do the same...I'm also wondering how exactly I should use P2 to check/counter Heatran.

Also, I maxed out Hippow's defense, but there's still 80 evs left over so I dropped them in attack to boost e/q...good idea?
 
P-2 checks Heatran by tracing the Flash Fire and absorbing the Fire Blast/Overheat. Since most Heatran are choiced they are locked into a fire move. Heatran that aren't choiced barely even hurt you anyway.

You could also use a bulky water>>P-2 to just all out block Heatran's moves if it is the Choice Scarf variant, although bulky waters are hit quite hard by Hidden Power [Electric/Grass].

P2's HP fighting will do a decent bit. Though Heatran won't do anything to you to begin with. P-2 Has the ability @ possible paralyzation and that just makes it easy to stall off if he is trying to hit you wiht EP or Dragon Pulse.

The drop into attack is fine. You could also allocate them to HP if you felt like it.
 
Hyppowdon lead to the moment doesn't seem me a good idea considering that almost all the leads of the today's metagame are endowed with Taunt, Gyarados with Taunt creates yourself many problems you could try to give Choice Scarf to Zapdos to be able to try a RevengeKill against him, a Lucario after a Swords Dance with Stealth Rock to support it devastates your team.

Thanks for the comments, but I actually already replaced zapdos with scarfed rotom-h (I apologize for not editing the OP earlier). Also I'm not really luke weak due to scarf rotom-h, scarfape, and hippowdon as well. Even if I am taunted and can't use SR at the start of the match, if they bring in Luke to set up I can just e/q him before he gets anywhere close to KOing hippow. As for gyara, I can just switch to porygon and he's pretty much done for. But again, all comments are appreciated, so thank you =] Any other comments from you or anyone would be welcome too.

Also thanks to overrated and strickeN as well for their clarification. =]

EDIT: I'm actually now curious as to whether I should stick with scarfape or switch to a LO/EB mixape. The restriction and having to continuously switch out when I make a single incorrect prediction gets annoying...and ape can already outspeed most unscarfed pokes and even some scarfed ones. Opinions?
