    The star of the team, just great. After a dragon dance this thig is a beast. Drain punch for recovery, crunch for a good stab, and ice punch to deal with dragons.

    Just a few things I noticed.

    You might want to opt for a spinner other than Excadrill , seeing as you lack Sand Stream, and that sorta makes him ehhh at best. I suggest:

    Forretress@Leftovers / Shed Shell
    Trait: Sturdy
    Sassy Nature (+SDef, -Spd)
    Evs: 252 HP / 6 Atk / 252 SDef
    Ivs: 0 Speed
    - Spikes
    - Rapid Spin
    - Gyro Ball / Earthquake / Volt Switch
    - Toxic Spikes / Earthquake / Volt Switch

    You seem to be worried about Ferrothorn, so with Forry spinning instead of Excadrill you pretty much wall him, though be wary of Leech Seed if you plan on staying in for extended periods of time. Also considering you lacked a sturdier steel type to resist dragon attacks, I feel Forry would fit in just fine.


    Also I feel that you should replace Miltank with something else, as it may be able to switch into Ferrothorn, but it can do nothing much in return.


    Jellicent should run a variant of the following moveset:

    Jellicent @ Leftovers
    Trait: Water Absorb
    EVs: 252 HP / 172 Def / 84 Spe or 252 HP / 252 Def / 6 SpD
    Calm Nature (+SpD, -Atk) / Bold Nature (+Def, -Atk)
    - Scald / Surf
    - Recover
    - Taunt / Shadow Ball / Ice Beam
    - Toxic / Will-o-Wisp / Taunt

    Just a few things I noticed off the bat, Ill come back if I spot anything else.
     
    Excadrill: Jolly > Adamant. This means that you'll tie with other Jolly Excadrill and you'll have to pray that yours will go first.

    Hydreigon's coverage sucks. I think it'd be a good revenge killer with this:
    -Draco Meteor
    -Surf
    -Fire Blast
    -U-turn/Dark Pulse
    Nature: Timid
    EVs: 4 HP/252 SAtk/252 Spe
    Item: Choice Scarf
