    Just kidding :P

    ~Crobat~ (Lead/Fighting Resist)
    [PokeCommunity.com] I HATE OU, AND GARCHOMP (NU RMT)

    Crobat @ Leftovers
    Timid
    160 HP/134 SpA/216 Spe
    Air Slash
    Hypnosis
    Taunt
    Roost

    Comments: Crobat makes an excellent lead with the fastest Hypnosis in the game coupled with the ability to Taunt set ups. His semi-bulky build is ideal for Roost, as it eliminates 3 weaknesses (Electric, Ice, Rock) and adds only a one other (Ground) Air Slash over Aerial Ace for more base power, and a nice 30% flinch rate.

    ~Heatran~ (Special Sweeper/Tank)
    [PokeCommunity.com] I HATE OU, AND GARCHOMP (NU RMT)

    Heatran @ Choice Specs
    Modest
    42 HP/252 SpA/216 Spe
    Fire Blast
    Earth Power
    Dragon Pulse
    Explosion/Stealth Rock/HP Electric

    Comments: Heatran makes an excellent switch into Azelf, Spiritomb, Dusknoir, etc...Choice Specs is here since many would expect the highly popular Scarftran, which I am not going to use anytime soon. Fire Blast/Earth Power/Dragon Pulse hit everything in the game for neutral, though after a Flash Fire boost, Fire Blast does more to a bunch of targets than Dragon Pulse/Earth Power can.

    ~Gyarados~ (Physical Sweeper)
    [PokeCommunity.com] I HATE OU, AND GARCHOMP (NU RMT)

    Gyarados @ Life Orb
    Adamant
    252 Att/252 Spe/6 HP
    Waterfall
    Ice Fang
    Stone Edge
    Dragon Dance

    Comments: Life Orb sweeping Gyarados makes an superb late game sweeper. Waterfall for the flinch chance, Ice Fang for Garchomp and friends, and Stone Edge for opposing Gyarados's. A little unsure if I should go with a different item, since I find myself wasting 10% of my life on something like Vaporeon (Ice Fang)

    ~Breloom~ (Physical Seeper/Sleep Inducer)
    [PokeCommunity.com] I HATE OU, AND GARCHOMP (NU RMT)

    Breloom @ Toxic Orb
    Adamant
    252 Att/252 Spe/6 HP
    Spore
    Focus Punch
    Seed BombS
    Substitute

    Comments: Breloom is such a little fun guy to play with. Sleep something, Sub up, and then just slowly eat apart and entire enemies team. Great to come in on a slower, recovering foe (like Blissey) and just get a free Sleep + Sub. Adamant > Jolly since I actually want to win.

    ~Gengar~ (Revenge killer)
    [PokeCommunity.com] I HATE OU, AND GARCHOMP (NU RMT)

    Gengar @ Choice Scarf
    Timid
    252 SpA/252 Spe/6 HP
    Shadow Ball
    Focus Blast
    Thunderbolt
    HP Ice

    Comments: ScarfGar makes an awesome revenge killer, especially with things like Garchomp and Deoxys-E running around trying to OHKO my whole team. Shadow Ball and Focus Blast, who can boast better coverage than that? Tbolt and HP Ice are for two main threats: Opposing Garchomps and Gyarados.

    ~Garchomp~ (Physical Sweeper)
    [PokeCommunity.com] I HATE OU, AND GARCHOMP (NU RMT)

    Garchomp @ Choice Band
    Jolly
    252 Att/252 Spe/6 HP
    Outrage
    Earthquake
    Fire Fang
    Dragon Claw/Stone Edge

    Comments: An absolute monster when used right. Choice Band Garchomp can make a lopsided battle turn right around, which is why I love it. Nearly uncounterable (stopped by only Skarm really, and still, Fire Fang can flinch it, making a 3HKO very possible) Last slot is a toss up, but the first three offer awesome coverage.
     
    Tyranitar and Weavile are asses to this team, but Gengar can revenge kill both (assuming Focus Blast doesn't miss) Azelf is walled by Heatran and revenge killed by Gengar (assuming they themselves aren't Scarfed)
     
    But let's be honest; if Scarzelf kills Gengar, GG.
    Heatran could wall it a bit, but really, he'll likely kill it off before it's able to wall Azelf.

    I suggested Weavile and Tyranitar as counters. Gengar backs them up very well.
     
    Azelf (HP Fighting ones, which are very rare) won't be getting past Heatran.

    I may go CB Tar > CB Chomp solely for trapping Psychic locked Azelfs, but meh.
     
    Well, you said it yourself; you hate Garchomp. :P
     
    Sort of like a love/hate thing. I love it when he 6-0's my enemy, but I hate when he 6-0's me ._.

    CBTar could be good for breaking sashers and stuff.
