    Well basically this is a Belly Drum team, supporting Marill(NFE) as a Belly Drummer. Please offer suggestions as to how I can further support this idea. I've become rather fond of these teams recently.

    Plusle (F) @ Leftovers
    Trait: Plus
    EVs: 7 HP / 8 Atk / 148 Def / 236 Spd / 104 SAtk / 7 SDef
    Timid Nature (+Spd, -Atk)
    - Agility
    - Baton Pass
    - Substitute
    - Thunderbolt
    Passes speed down to Marill, and a free Sub if he gets a chance
    Torkoal (F) @ Leftovers
    Trait: White Smoke
    EVs: 60 HP / 156 Atk / 152 Def / 52 SAtk / 88 SDef
    Hardy Nature (Neutral)
    - Body Slam
    - Explosion
    - Flamethrower
    - Iron Defense
    Meh. I'm not sure about this one. Explodes on any pokes who could be a threat for the setup. ID is a filler; please suggest something else
    Chimecho (F) @ Leftovers
    Trait: Levitate
    EVs: 104 HP / 200 Def / 204 SDef
    Hardy Nature (Neutral)
    - Heal Bell
    - Light Screen
    - Reflect
    - Safeguard
    P-Passer. This way, someone can't come along and T-Wave me and ruin the setup
    Cacturne (F) @ Petaya Berry
    Trait: Sand Veil
    EVs: 56 HP / 146 Atk / 99 Def / 67 Spd / 142 SDef
    Hardy Nature (Neutral)
    - Focus Punch
    - Grasswhistle
    - Spikes
    - Substitute
    Puts things to sleep, sets up Spikes, Subpunches if Marill dies
    Marill (M) @ Liechi Berry
    Trait: Huge Power
    EVs: 48 HP / 240 Atk / 60 Def / 100 Spd / 60 SDef
    Jolly Nature (+Spd, -SAtk)
    - Belly Drum
    - Brick Break
    - Hidden Power [Ghost]
    - Substitute
    Yayity.
    Kecleon (M) @ Leftovers
    Trait: Color Change
    EVs: 142 HP / 117 Atk / 145 Def / 106 SDef
    Careful Nature (+SDef, -SAtk)
    - Return
    - Shadow Ball
    - Skill Swap
    - Thunder Wave
    Skill Swaps Color Change and Shadow Balls to death. STAB Return hurts.

    Plusle is only useful for passing Substitutes. Go Encore over Agility. You have stupid EVs, go 252Speed/252 Sp. Attack with Timid.

    Torkoal (F) @ Leftovers
    Trait: White Smoke
    EVs: 60 HP / 156 Atk / 152 Def / 52 SAtk / 88 SDef
    Hardy Nature (Neutral)
    - Body Slam
    - Explosion
    - Flamethrower
    - Iron Defense

    Curse>Iron Defence. Doesn't need Defence EVs but needs a +Defence,-Speed Nature. More HP and less Attack (only needs like 220). Fire Blast>Flamethrower

    Chimecho (F) @ Leftovers
    Trait: Levitate
    EVs: 104 HP / 200 Def / 204 SDef
    Hardy Nature (Neutral)
    - Heal Bell
    - Light Screen
    - Reflect
    - Safeguard

    Safeguard is almost useless, use Psychic and Heal Bell in NU is lol because not much will status you. Modest Nature, 270 Sp. Attack, max HP rest in Defence.

    Trait: Sand Veil
    EVs: 56 HP / 146 Atk / 99 Def / 67 Spd / 142 SDef
    Hardy Nature (Neutral)
    - Focus Punch
    - Grasswhistle
    - Spikes
    - Substitute

    Needs Adamant Nature. Leech Seed>Spikes

    Marill (M) @ Liechi Berry
    Trait: Huge Power
    EVs: 48 HP / 240 Atk / 60 Def / 100 Spd / 60 SDef
    Jolly Nature (+Spd, -SAtk)
    - Belly Drum
    - Brick Break
    - Hidden Power [Ghost]
    - Substitute

    Marril is unevolved, not NU. He can't survive a Belly Drum and needs Salac>Liechi. HP Ghost is useless because there are no NU Ghosts. Go Return.

    Kecleon (M) @ Leftovers
    Trait: Color Change
    EVs: 142 HP / 117 Atk / 145 Def / 106 SDef
    Careful Nature (+SDef, -SAtk)
    - Return
    - Shadow Ball
    - Skill Swap
    - Thunder Wave

    Skill Swap is stupid.

    No Normal Resist=Pidgeot rape
