    Ok please dont insult me or anything like that give your opinion in a nice way and tell me any 2 pokemon i should add, i was thinking Tyranitar because of the ability and seeing as i am basing it around that i think i should or not?


    Thoughts, if pokemon need taking out just say!
     
    You still need to add two more Pokemon or we'll have to lock this =(. Even if you're unsure, our raters can help. It would be great if you could update it so we could help more =).
     
    Well first off, you don't have Sand Stream, which pretty much would cripple a Sandstorm team without it. Your choices are pretty well limited here, having only Hippowdon and Tyranitar to choose from. I reccomend Hippowdon, as it has far better typing than its counterpart.

    Hippowdon (Adamant, Leftovers)
    Curse
    Revenge
    Slack Off
    Earthquake
    *this is how I would use one, but you could also go for these movesets:

    Attacking Hippowdon: (Adamant, Expert Belt or Life Orb)
    Earthquake
    Ice Fang/ Fire Fang (Depending on if you fear Grass types over other Ground)
    Thunder Fang
    Stone Edge
    *this is generally inneffetive.

    Curse lead Hippowdon:
    Curse
    Stealth Rock
    Earthquake
    Fire/Thunder Fang (Depending on which weakness you fear most)

    I'd also substitute Ferrothorn for Cacturne (Modest or Adamant, Brightpowder)
    Special Set:
    Nasty Plot
    Leech Seed/Giga Drain
    Energy Ball/ Dark Pulse
    Double Team/ Spikes

    Physical Set:
    Swords Dance
    Needle Arm/ Seed Bomb
    Sucker Punch
    Spikes/ Double Team

    And a type to round out your team: Lunatone or Solrock

    Lunatone: (Modest, Zoom Lens)
    Hypnosis
    Dream Eater
    Ice Beam
    Calm Mind

    Solrock: (Adamant, Sitrus Berry)
    Swagger
    Psych Up
    Rock Slide/ Stone Edge
    Earthquake
     
    I wouldn't use the above Hippowdon sets; I'd pretty much go for this one:
    -Earthquake
    -Stealth Rock
    -Slack Off
    -Ice Fang/Stone Edge/Roar
    Nature: Impish/Careful
    EVs: 252 HP/152 Def/104 SDef
    Item: Leftovers
    Ability: Sand Stream

    Excadrill can work in the last slot:
    -Earthquake
    -Rock Slide
    -Rapid Spin/Return/Shadow Claw/X-Scissor
    -Swords Dance
    Nature: Jolly
    EVs: 4 HP/252 Atk/252 Spe
    Item: Air Balloon
    Ability: Sand Rush
