It's basically the same team as mine
For dusknoir i suggest you give it ice/thunder/fire punch instead of mean look. You need 252hp,100 attack and the rest spdef and def split. base hp is 40 thats why, attack is bad unless ev'd then it becomes alright

I'd recommend replacing Roar with Whirlwind on Skarmory.
It does what Roar can do, but it can also hit Pokemon with the Soundproof ability.

But it depends on whether she already has the scarmory and doesn't want to breed again. Mine has roar and it works fine, instead of whirlwind it has drill peck which works because you have roar

I agree with Willz, also doesn't whirlwind hit flying pokes?

Skarmory:
I wouldn't reccomend spikes and stealth rock. It is quite hard to set up two with a single pokemon. If you lay down one, they can switch to the appropriate counter and then you can't lay the other down.

Milotic:
Take some EV's out of SpAtk and put them into HP. I wouldn't recommend flame orb, if they have sandstorm up, you're losing 12% per turn and you have no leftovers recovery, you will be reliing on recovery every other turn.

Infernape
Good, you don't have nasty plot (which is standard) so I would put Expert belt on, as you S.E a lot with that moveset.

Weavile:
Fine, I would add Choice band to that set, to give some extra kick (I also prefer banded Ice shard over punch but meh) or I would add swords dance, but your set works as well, just doesn't get that extra kick.

Yanmega:
Fine, I assume you're going for flinch, although Togekiss does a flinching set much better (T-Wave/Body Slam + Air Slash + Serene Grace = annoy the hell out of opponent)

Dusknoir:
Pump EV's into HP as Dusknoirs HP is quite appaling. Personally, I wouldn't go Night Shade as Dusknoir has access to a few punches (Thunder, Fire, Shadow Sneak and the like) But Night shade will work due to no att EV's I suppose.

EDIT: Oh, and Webmonkey, how is it the same as yours???

Nasty plot takes up 1move
i want ape to be a mix sweeper not a nasty ploter
it was him of lucario

its adamant giveing him 361 attack
and some good type coverage
hence the expert belt

yeah sota lol
but i really am using him as a sp.aweeper
and air slash is stab
he is great sp.sweeper maybe even the best
but only becuse of speed boost.

Mixfernape generally has nasty plot with flamethrower and grass knot, with close combat to destroy special walls (e.g. totally rapes Blissey)

For weavile, your set works, I just like to have that extra kick behind attacks (more than x1.2), even if it makes Weavile hit and run, but there's nothing wrong with your set, just a personal preference

For Togekiss vs Yanmega, I prefer Togekiss, as you usually paralyse them anyway, making them slower than you (try and predict so as to paralyse them on the switch).

Why does Infernape know Earthquake?

Why shouldn't it? In place of Nasty Plot?
