Dusknoir should be Impish and why do you have Substitute and Choice Specs on Magmortar?

Hmm I'm not sure what other moves to put for Magmortar so yea I just stuck Substitute there. Also. yea no reason either why I should put Choice Specs since it's counterproductive to put Sub and Choice Specs together.

Expert Belt could work, but CB/Orb work better, IMO.

You hit 8 out of 17 types; go with another item.

Swampert @ Leftovers
Impish
252HP/252Def/4Atk

Earthquake
AvalancheIce Beam
CurseSurf
Stealth Rock

Cursepert is dead. Mixpert is better as it hits the dragons' lower sp.def in general and isn't completely walled by Skarm. Relaxed>Impish.

Dusknoir @ Leftovers
BoldCareful
252HP/128Def/128SDef

ToxicWoW
Pain Split
Mean LookShadow Sneak
Thunderpunch

Mean Look isn't really that useful on anything but Umbreon. WoW will help you take the physical stuff, and you should take some def EVs and put them in sp.def.

Is there a better Pokemon out there for Flamethrower/Thunderbolt? I fear that an opposing Metagross might be able to sweep my team easily and that Skarmory can wall up the rest of my team with only one guy who has Flamethrower.
