    Well like the title says I'm making a desert storm team and I'd appreciate feedback (no matter how hurtful).

    Tyranitar@shell bell
    Sand Stream
    Adamant
    252hp/ 136spdef/ 124atk
    EQ
    Stone edge
    DD
    Icefang

    Just the basic DD Tyranitar lead you'd expect from a desert storm team.


    Garchomp@Wide lens
    Sand Veil
    (don't know nature for him)
    Dragon Rush
    Stone edge
    Fire Blast
    EQ

    Anti-Skarm

    Steelix@Iron Ball
    Sturdy
    Relaxed
    252def/ 252hp/ 6atk
    EQ
    Gyro Ball
    Stealth rock
    Explosion

    Thank you Anti-Pop this thing is amazing


    Hippodown@leftovers
    Sand Stream
    Careful
    136sp def/ 252hp/ 120def
    EQ
    Ice Fang
    Stockpile
    Slack Off

    This is an expirement that will most likely be fired down.

    Scizor@expert belt
    Technician
    Adamant
    252spd/ 252atk/ 6def
    Pursuit
    X-Scissor
    Iron Head
    Brick Break/ AA / Swords Dance

    Can't decide on last move but Technican+Pursuit=Pwnage
    (hehehe steel isn't affected by sandstorm)

    I'm leaving open the sixth spot because I know someone is going to tell me A pokemon I should insert.
     
    Only Tyranitar is needed since it is the stronger of the two.

    Also, where is your Special Sweeper?

    Regirock anyone?
     
    Regirocks base spatk is 50 I'd be better off with Tyranitar being a Special Sweeper.

    TTar is probably your best bet, sadly. Maybe a rock polish and 3 special attacks? Not too sure :/
     
    No I mean Regirock for a Tank / Dual Wall... <.<;

    Oh I misread so what'd that look like.

    TTar is probably your best bet, sadly. Maybe a rock polish and 3 special attacks? Not too sure :/

    So then

    Tyranitar@Wide Lens
    252sp atk/ 136hp/ 120spdef
    Rock Polish
    Dragon Pulse
    Thunder
    Blizzard

    Kinda like a BoltBeamer? What nature should he have?

    You can always run Boah, infact yeah run Boah,


    Tyranitar@leftovers
    Quiet Nature/Rash nature
    252 HP /190 SP.ATT / 68 SPEED (W/QUIET) OR 68 ATT (W/RASH)
    - Focus Punch
    - Substitute
    - Dark Pulse / Crunch
    - Thunderbolt /Ice beam /Flamethrower



    If your Garchomp dies your going to have a huge problem with skarm/ Random Physcial wall as do all sandstorm teams. Kills Blissey aswell due to it making 101 hp subs so Bliss cant break them with 1 seismic toss which allows you to focus punch it.



    Also you should consider Cradilly with 92 sp.def Evs and Sassy Nature it gets up to around 451 sp.def which takes 35-43 % damage from Draco meteor from Specs Mence and easily recovers off the damage

    Cradily is god. Not even kidding, that thing...I'd use that.
     
    You can use some Gengar / PorygonZ / Alakazam for a Special Sweeper

    Not saying those three don't have massive pwnage but they'd all take a hit from sandstorm. Gengar would be decent in double battles because of Levitate though.

    Holy crap!!! Cradily is like the shiznit in Def for a sandstorm team why didn't I think of that.

    Moveset wise its this

    Cradily @ Leftovers
    Suction Cups
    Careful Nature /Sassy Nature
    EVs: 252 HP / 164 DEF / 92 Sp. DEF
    - Toxic
    - Rock Slide /Stone Edge
    - Recover
    - Earthquake /Stealth Rock
     
    To this day, I have not found one legal breeding chain that allows Barrier and Mirror Coat on Cradily. Do you know one?

    This is probably the most suited Cradily set for your team. Toxic stall them, or Earthquake the incoming steels trying to block you. Stealth Rock can go instead of Rock Slide / Stone Edge actually, just for more team support.
