    Strategy? I think you're supposed to come up with that. However, I can make some changes...

    -Porygon Z: Give it choice scarf and Dark pulse over nasty plot. It needs the speed. NEEDS the speed, or else faster sweeper like mence will destroy you. Modest nature.

    -Snorlax: Ah, good 'ol curselax. It looks fine to me.

    -Gyarados: Use waterfall over ice fang. Otherwise it's fine.

    -Electivire: T-bolt over T-punch for skarmory, lonely nature, and since it covers so many types with SE hits, use expert belt.

    -Weezing: Yeah, it's fine, but I'm no weezing expert.

    -Espeon: Fine, but I'd make sure that's a good EV spread.

    So there, those are my suggestions.
     
    Sludge Bomb on Weezing may give it STAB, but its coverage is crap. Thunderbolt over Sludge Bomb is a better choice, as it has a better chance in eliminating Gyarados.

    Ugh, another person copying off Smogon. D:
     
    yeah XD... nice copy pasta work. use gyara as your lead if you're going to run this set.

    although, i would never use curselax. it needs good support to work.

    Yep, thats exactly what I did, is there anything wrong with that?
    And why can't I use Snorlax? Who should I replace with him?
     
    You can use snorlax. I recommend it, Samson doesn't, you do what you want. Copy and pasting from smogon is fine, but you need some originality of some sort. Sludge Bomb has terrible coverage...you might wanna replace it.
     
    alrite if I'm gonna use gyara as my lead, What move should I start with?
     
    Depends on the opponent...taunt or DD almost always though...
