    IMPISH NATURE
    - Power Whip
    - Knock Off/Stun Spore
    - Sleep Powder
    - Leech Seed

    Power Whip > Other Grass Special attacks, as some pokemon it will fail to OHKO due to 50% Special defense rise of rock pokemon during a sandstorm.

    Other moves are self explanatory, all are crippling.
     
    Bastiodon @ Leftovers
    Brave Nature
    EVs: 252 HP / 252 Atk / 4 Def
    - Curse
    - Metal Burst
    - Stone Edge
    - Taunt / Toxic / Earthquake

    Metal Burst and Curse work great together. If you know your opponent will switch into something that'll use Earthquake against Bastiodon, predict it coming and use Metal Burst against them. Taunt can help you with that prediction, and I'd probably prefer that option myself. Earthquake allows it to deal damage against other Rock / Steel types - if not, a bit, considering Bastiodon's attack base is rather poor.

    Typhlosion @ Heat Rock / Leftovers
    Modest / Timid Nature
    EVs: 252 Sp.Atk / 252 Spd / 6 HP
    - Sunny Day
    - Solarbeam
    - Flamethrower / Eruption / Lava Plume
    - Hidden Power Electric / Hidden Power Ice

    If you're using Typhlosion with a Sunnybeamer set, then I recommand having either HP Ice or Electric, as its movepool isn't very impressive. Lava Plume is an option over Flamethrower, if you don't mind doing less damage, but gaining a 30% chance of inducing a burn.
     
    im still not sure how hidden power works really lol.
     
    An electivire runs through most of this team...and you need a better special wall than bastiodon.
     
    what do u think would be a good choice? ithink i should use a ground type to counter electivires.
     
    You do realize almost all Vires carry ice punch, correct? Steelix counters Vire well............
     
    or politoed sounded good but idk about him.

    Politoed would get clobbered by thunderpunch. What kind of idiot sends out a water type against a pokemon like electivire? Swampert would also do nicely...or claydol. I prefer steelix though...I wonder why;)
     
    Well, I'm assuming Game Freak thought that Rock / Steel is a great typing to use for walling / tanking. Even though Bastiodon's defences are great, Earthquake hurts it really hard, and may possibly be OHKO'd from one.

    Kabutops @ Leftovers
    Jolly Nature
    EVs: 252 HP / 148 Sp.Def / 108 Spd
    - Rapid Spin
    - Stone Edge
    - Waterfall / Protect
    - Waterfall / Knock Off

    Being weak to both Fighting and Ground types, with little resistances means that the 105 base defence is sort of wasted on Kabutops. It's better off raising its special defence and to run Sand Stream so it can make better use of its Ice and x4 Fire resistances.

    Kabutops @ Choice Band
    Adamant Nature
    EVs: 20 HP / 252 Atk / 236 Spd
    - Waterfall
    - X-Sissor
    - Aqua Jet
    - Stone Edge

    You can try Rapid Spin instead of X-Sissor, as it doesn't really offer much cover, except for Grass types.

    Kabutops @ Wet Rock / Life Orb
    Adamant Nature
    EVs: 28 HP / 252 Atk / 100 Def / 130 Spd
    - Rain Dance
    - Waterfall
    - X-Sissor / Swords Dance
    - Stone Edge / Rock Slide

    Makes use of its ability, doubling Kabutop's speed.

    Kabutops @ Salac Berry
    Jolly Nature
    EVs: 52 HP / 252 Atk / 204 Spd
    - Flail
    - Waterfall
    - Swords Dance
    - Endure / Substitute

    It has Sand Stream resistance, making this set work more effectively.
     
    i thought of gardevoir politoed kangaskhan shuckle altaria walrein slowking probopass. any of those work?

    For what? Getting clobbered in OU? None of those pokemon, except gardevoir and Kangaskhan, I'd recommend you use. Shuckle is lol, and slowbro>>>>>>>>>>>>slowking.
