    Quagsire (M) @ Leftovers
    Trait: Damp
    EVs: 232 HP / 24 Def / 252 SDef
    Relaxed Nature (+Def, -Spd)
    - Sandstorm
    - Curse
    - Earthquake
    - Ice Punch
    This is a pokemon I've seen others use, it's a pretty good wall, not sure if I have a good set though. Sandstorm is to start the sandy weather and earthquake is for STAB. Ice punch gives it good coverage against grass type leads.

    Relicanth (F) @ Choice Band
    Trait: Rock Head
    EVs: 4 HP / 252 Atk / 252 Spd
    Jolly Nature (+Spd, -SAtk)
    - Rock Slide
    - Aqua Tail
    - Earthquake
    - Head Smash
    Relicanth gets a big boost from Rock Head. It's able to spam Head smash. Rock Slide> Stone Edge due to accuracy. Aqua Tail is a good move as a STAB attack. Earthquake is just a good strong damage dealing attack.

    Camerupt (F) @ Leftovers
    Trait: Solid Rock
    EVs: 252 HP / 252 SAtk / 4 SDef
    Mild Nature (+SAtk, -Def)
    - Explosion
    - Earth Power
    - Flamethrower
    - Stone Edge
    I want to see how this will work. Explosion is if it's low health. Earth Power as a strong move that it can use+STAB. Flamethrower is another STAB move while Stone Edge is used as a strong attack (again lolo).

    Rhyperior (M) @ Expert Belt
    Trait: Solid Rock
    EVs: 252 HP / 4 Atk / 252 Def
    Adamant Nature (+Atk, -SAtk)
    - Stone Edge
    - Sandstorm
    - Hammer Arm
    - Earthquake
    Stone Edge can cover against Staraptor and sandstorm is just if sandstorm runs out again. Hammer Arm and Earthquake are strong moves it can use.



    *pokemonelite2000 image removed*
    Torterra (M) @ Life Orb
    Trait: Overgrow
    EVs: 136 HP / 96 Atk / 112 Def / 164 SDef
    Careful Nature (+SDef, -SAtk)
    - Protect
    - Wood Hammer
    - Toxic
    - Leech Seed
    It's crazy how well this guy can wall. Once Leech Seed and Toxic are up the opponent's a goner. Wood Hammer so after protect it isn't completely worthless.



    *pokemonelite2000 image removed*
    Cradily (F) @ Leftovers
    Trait: Suction Cups
    EVs: 4 HP / 52 Atk / 252 Def / 200 SDef
    Rash Nature (+SAtk, -SDef)
    - Protect
    - Curse
    - Sandstorm
    - Rock Slide
    This guy is a bewast wall just like Torterra. Curse so Rock Slide can get stronger and more monstrous defense. Protect can give it a turn to heal with leftovers. Sandstorm is just to set up again.

    Sandstorm doesn't last long and is a big waste. Just use Hippopotas if you want a Sandstorm team.

    Also, you should test a team before posting a RMT. It's not a rule of the forum but you really should do it anyway since it's much easier to fix mistakes yourself after seeing flaws. One battle is not enough testing usually.
