    Snorlax is currently walled by Ghosts. Badly. It's too slow for Belly Drum and shouldn't even waste time bulking up its defenses. The best it can do is an Assault Vest attacker:
    -Return/Body Slam
    -Earthquake
    -Crunch/Fire Punch
    -Self-Destruct/Pursuit
    Nature: Adamant
    EVs: 252 Atk/252 SDef/4 Spe
    Item: Assault Vest
    Ability: Thick Fat

    There are better bulky Ghost Pokemon out there than Dusclops, like Trevenant, Gourgeist and Jellicent:

    Trevenant:
    -Horn Leech/Wood Hammer
    -Earthquake/Rock Slide
    -Will-o-Wisp
    -Rest
    Nature: Impish
    EVs: 252 HP/180 Def/76 Spe
    Item: Leftovers/Lum Berry
    Ability: Natural Cure/Harvest

    or
    -Horn Leech
    -Shadow Claw/Leech Seed
    -Will-o-Wisp
    -Protect
    Nature: Careful
    EVs: 244 HP/16 Def/248 SDef
    Item: Sitrus Berry
    Ability: Harvest

    or
    -Substitute
    -Leech Seed
    -Will-o-Wisp
    -Phantom Force
    Nature: Impish
    EVs: 252 HP/180 Def/76 Spe
    Item: Sitrus Berry
    Ability: Harvest

    Gourgeist (Super size):
    -Will-o-Wisp
    -Leech Seed
    -Seed Bomb
    -Shadow Sneak/Protect
    Nature: Impish
    EVs: 252 HP/4 Atk/252 Def
    Item: Leftovers
    Ability: Frisk

    Jellicent:
    -Scald/Shadow Ball
    -Will-o-Wisp/Toxic
    -Recover
    -Taunt
    Nature: Bold
    EVs: 248 HP/172 Def/88 Spe
    Item: Leftovers
    Ability: Water Absorb/Cursed Body

    or
    -Scald
    -Shadow Ball/Ice Beam/Taunt
    -Will-o-Wisp/Toxic
    -Recover
    Nature: Calm
    EVs: 248 HP/172 SDef/88 Spe
    Item: Leftovers
    Ability: Water Absorb/Cursed Body

    Choice Band leaves Staraptor locked into a single move and that's not good for it if it has Roost:
    -Double-Edge/Return
    -Brave Bird
    -Close Combat
    -U-turn/Quick Attack
    Nature: Adamant/Jolly
    EVs: 252 Atk/4 Def/252 Spe
    Item: Choice Scarf/Choice Band

    It's tempting to use 2 entry hazards on Ferrothorn, but in the end, it's not worth it:
    -Stealth Rock/Spikes
    -Leech Seed
    -Gyro Ball/Thunder Wave
    -Power Whip/Protect
    Nature: Relaxed
    EVs: 252 HP/48 Def/208 SDef
    Item: Leftovers
    Ability: Iron Barbs

    Volcarona needs all the coverage it can get. Having Fiery Dance as its lone special move is a big no-no, and U-turning is better left to Scizor, Greninja and Genesect:
    -Quiver Dance
    -Fire Blast/Fiery Dance
    -Bug Buzz
    -Giga Drain/Hidden Power (Ground)/Psychic
    Nature: Timid
    EVs: 252 SAtk/4 SDef/252 Spe
    Item: Life Orb/Lum Berry
    Ability: Flame Body

    or
    -Quiver Dance
    -Fiery Dance
    -Bug Buzz
    -Roost
    Nature: Timid
    EVs: 240 HP/252 Def/16 Spe
    Item: Leftovers
    Ability: Flame Body

    Volcarona and Staraptor are weak to Stealth Rock, so a Rapid Spinner or Defogger is necessary, preferably over Azumarill or Staraptor, IMO:
    Starmie:
    -Hydro Pump/Surf
    -Thunderbolt/Psyshock
    -Ice Beam
    -Rapid Spin
    Nature: Timid
    EVs: 252 SAtk/4 SDef/252 Spe
    Item: Leftovers/Life Orb
    Ability: Natural Cure

    or
    -Scald
    -Rapid Spin
    -Psyshock/Ice Beam/Thunderbolt
    -Recover
    Nature: Timid
    EVs: 248 HP/32 Def/4 SAtk/224 Spe
    Item: Leftovers
    Ability: Natural Cure

    Excadrill:
    -Earthquake
    -Rock Slide/Iron Head
    -Rapid Spin
    -Swords Dance/Stealth Rock
    Nature: Jolly
    EVs: 4 HP/252 Atk/252 Spe
    Item: Leftovers/Air Balloon/Chople Berry
    Ability: Mold Breaker

    or
    -Earthquake
    -Iron Head
    -Rock Slide
    -Rapid Spin
    Nature: Adamant/Jolly
    EVs: 120 HP/136 Atk/252 SDef (Adamant) or 252 Atk/4 Def/252 Spe (Jolly)
    Item: Assault Vest (Adamant)/Choice Scarf (Jolly)
    Ability: Mold Breaker

    Mandibuzz:
    -Foul Play
    -Roost
    -Taunt/Whirlwind
    -Defog/Toxic/Knock Off
    Nature: Bold/Impish
    EVs: 248 HP/216 Def/44 SDef
    Item: Leftovers
    Ability: Overcoat

    Crobat:
    -Brave Bird
    -Defog
    -Roost
    -Taunt/Toxic
    Nature: Jolly
    EVs: 168 HP/136 Atk/4 SDef/200 Spe
    Item: Black Sludge
    Ability: Infiltrator

    Mega Blastoise:
    -Water Pulse/Scald/Hydro Pump
    -Dark Pulse
    -Aura Sphere/Ice Beam
    -Rapid Spin
    Nature: Modest
    EVs: 252 HP/252 SAtk/4 SDef
    Item: Blastoisinite

    Tentacruel:
    -Scald
    -Sludge Bomb
    -Rapid Spin
    -Toxic/Knock Off
    Nature: Bold
    EVs: 252 HP/224 Def/32 Spe
    Item: Black Sludge
    Ability: Liquid Ooze

    Edit: BellyJet Azumarill should use 92 HP/252 Atk/164 Spe. The item should be Sitrus Berry to restore some HP after a Belly Drum.

    Thank you for your time reviewing my team! I will read your review now :D

    BTW, what does being a supersize gourgeist could do?

    Gourgeist comes in 4 sizes: Small, Medium, Large, and Super Size. Besides being different sizes, they have somewhat different base stats. A Super Sized Gourgeist's base stats are ideal for the set Platinum listed.
