    252 Def/ 40 SpA/ 216 SpD
    Seismic Toss
    Aromatherapy
    Toxic/Thunder Wave
    Softboiled

    Changes:
    New Deoxys, Nature changed to Hasty
    Switched Donphan for Gliscor (Now I'm in the need of a spinner, and still not sure what to get rid of)
    Switched CBTar for CBGross, not only does it provide better coverage, block Deoxys-E and can hit all types for at least neutral damage.
    Switched Blissey for Tentacruel. Gives better Mixape Coverage, and gives me a Toxic Spiker and Rapid Spinner.
    Back to Blissey
    Changed Deoxys around again
    Seismic Toss>>Ice Beam for Blissey
    Fixed a typo (Thanks ABYAY)
    Possible Changes:
     Switching Mixape for Starmie. I already have 2 Special Sweeps, and no spinner
    Switching Blissey for Tentacruel. It blocks HP Ice Mixape, and still is a potential special wall. Not to mention it can set up Toxic Spikes AND spin.
    If Tentacruel replaces Blissey, use Gross as a Sleep Talker, as I'll have a huge status problem.

    HP Ice Mixape runs through this team- especially once Deoxys is out of the way. In fact, Deoxys seems to be your only answer to many threats- and he can't even do anything besides revenge kill. Take out Donphan, first off, and get some decent walling.

    Also, that Deoxys sucks. If Brave is the only thing you can get for him, he's better off scrapped (although if you need, I can trade you a Naive Deoxys...).
     
    Thanks to Air getting me a new Deoxys, I'll update my team, with the updates in the first post
     
    I don't see Tyranitar being a good teamplayer here- Sandstorm only benefits Gliscor, yet hinders greatly all of your other Pokémon.

    Change it to Metagross or Scizor so that besides not having to deal with Sandstorm [as often], you also get rid of your Deoxys-E weakness. :3
     
    I don't like Blissey at all, so I'd change her for Tentacruel in a heartbeat. But that's just my personal opinion.

    Not to mention, Tenta would be a nice way for your team to stop Mixape, since you'd need Deoxys-E alive to do it.

    Talking about Mixape, yours is missing some EVs.
     
    That's what I was thinking as well. Blissey really isn't doing much here. But then I'll have a status problem, so I might have to make CBGross to Rest Talk Gross

    Um, you have just made yourself Azelf/Porygon-z/Gengar <Insert ANY half decent sp.sweeper weak >, congrats XD.

    Blissey >>Tenta.



    Make deoxys this, so you have a countering utility to Ape, Dos and Chomp.


    Deoxys@Leftovers / Life Orb
    252 HP / 184 SpA / 72 Speed
    Timid Nature
    - Recover
    - Thunderbolt
    - Ice Beam
    - Psychic

    You also dont NEED 2 mix sweepers with ape.
     
    Gah, lol, this is getting all confusing and such, but it shall be worth it!! D_A's opinion>all at this point :D

    Now to get a Timid Deoxys :P
     
    your MixApe EVs look messed up...4HP? 252sp.atk/232spd/24atk is the common for maximum effectiveness.

    Keep Deoxys-E alive at all costs, or you're going to be run down by Gyarados with if it has DD/Waterfall/Ice Fang/Earthquake, as well as HP Ice Infernape (Both, quite strangely, are what I run.)

    Those are the only two I can think of, seeing as if you can outpredict CBTar, it will die.
