I got a little tired of OU so I decided to make a non OU team. I know more than half of my team is weak bug type attacks. I made it so it could stall more than it attacks. If there is anything that I missed about this teams weaknesses then I am open to opinions. So, here it is.

Mismagius@Focussash
Ability:Levitate
EV's:252 HP/252 SPD/6 SPDEF
Calm
-Perish song
-Meanlook
-protect
-Shadowball
I found out that weaviles, Tyranitars, and gengars ruin this strategy. First I meanlook then perish song. The mean look gaurantees that the guy doesn't switch out early realizing what I'm doing. That's pretty much the main deal with this guy. Shadow ball is for stab.

Wobbuffet@Leftovers
Ability: Shadowtag
EV's:6 HP/252 SPDEF/252DEF
Impish
-Encore
-Counter
-Mirror Coat
-Safegaurd
This guy has a ton of HP even without any HP EV's invested into his HP. Since his defenses are low I decided to put max EV's into them instead. Pretty much, the only thing he does is sit and wait for the perish trap to activate.

Shaymin@Leftovers
Ability:Natural Cure
EV's:58 HP/200 DEF/52 SPATK/200 SPDEF
Calm
-Seed Flare
-Leech seed
-Toxic
-Aromatherapy
This small hedghog can outstall a Blissey. Aromatherapy is there because he would be useless with a status effect inflicted on him. I did find a problem with U-turning Crobats since they are poison types and can't be inflicted with toxic.

Absol@Focussash
Ability: Super Luck
EV's:252 ATK/252 SPD/6 HP
Adamant
-Psycho cut
-Shadow Claw
-Sucker Punch
-Swords Dance
First turn swords dance then sucker punch to make up for his low speed.Shadow Claw and Psycho cut are there for pokemon that try to set up while Absol is Sucker Punching. I found him very useful and gets a few kills before he gets taken down.

Sceptile@LifeOrb
Ability:Overgrow
EV's:252 SPATK/252 SPD/6 HP
Timid
-Energy Ball
-HP ice
-Dragon Pulse/replacable
-Focusblast
I found dragon pulse useless since most of the dragons used in Competitive battling are part flying and can be easily taken down by HP ice. Energy ball is for stab. and focus blast is there so blissey doesn't completely wall him.

Hitmontop@Muscle band
Ability:Intimidate
EV's:252 HP/252 ATK/ 6 DEF
Impish
-Fake out
-Close Combat
-Aerial ace
-Rapid spin
Standard set except for Toxic. I couldn't find out an item to give him so I can replace the muscle band. I put in rapid spin because the sash on Absol would useless with stealth rocks out.

Hm, I've tried out the Mismagius set.

Mismagius
Calm
252 HP / 40 Def / 216 SpD
Perish Trap
Mean Look
Protect/Substitute
Shadow Ball

It was surprisingly sturdy.

I'll try it and see which is better, because I want the mismagius to go first survive a hit and perish song. Then I witch to wobbuffet.

With the EV spread, he can survive at least 2 or 3 non-super effective moves

Lol non-OU but you have Ubers in there xD

you do know that wobuffet is an uber pokemon right? (some consider it to be the cheapest pokemon ever made) not very many people accept ubers in any kind of play. but for in game play, it's good ( i would change charm to destiny bond or safeguard seeing how it's a counter pokemon)

Absol i think should have night slash instead of sucker punch. sucker punch isn't a 100% guarantee move

Sceptile is looks good, but yeah you should replace dragon pulse since you already have hidden power ice. maybe add leaf storm

Shaymin. Again people might not accept in any play since there is no legit way to get it yet.

Mismagus as a lead is rather risky. Considering that most leads are physical sweepers and they are soo fast! >_< So it may be risky. But good team though. If I had more time I could tell you much more on it. I just read about this kind of team yesterday and I know quite a bit.

Teach Absol Night slash! Super luck + night salsh= possible sweep. I've done it before. I have an absol on my team and I swept an opponent 6-0 with it. XD

Agreed. Gengar is a prime choice for Leads along with Gyra. Any of those would own that Mismag.

Absol + Night Slash = Good

*changes Shoddy team to counter Absol* Nah kidding.

Oh, I forgot to mention that this is my shoddy team and they unbanned Wobbufet on ladder play. Again I'd rather stick with sucker punch because of the higher power and his low speed. I guess that I will change charm to safegaurd seeing it would protect my team from status effects.And I'll change Mismagius.

That still doesnt mean he is no longer an uber. They unbanned him from the ladder on shoddy to test how well he does in OU. Right now he is still considered uber.

Just clarifying things for you.
