If you are going to post your team, try making your own thread, this is not the place, so nobody will rate it without its own thread, and in regards to the origninal team we are rating, very good, the hydriegon is flawless

The durant needs iron head and i'd give the jellicent hex instead of taunt. Taunt's not doing much, and jellicent isn't fast enough to pair with it well. Also, hex will pair very well with will-o-wisp and scald. Otherwise, it's very good :)

For Jellicent, I would Replace Will-o-wisp with Toxic, because Scald can burn foes, Always nice to be able to burn + toxic foes :)

Suggestions:
1) Change muscle band to focus sash/something else on Durant. A 10% boost to attack doesn't make a huge difference.

2) Cursed Body on Jellicent. It already resists water type moves and has good HP/Sp.Def so it doesn't need the water immunity. Cursed body can be helpful if you're trying to stall with recover.

3) Remove Surf for Draco Meteor on Hydreigon. I've used life orb Hydreigon leads in the battle subway before and I didn't find surf very useful. Hydreigon can often 2 Hit KO something with dragon pulse and then OHKO the second Pokemon with Draco Meteor before going down plus Draco Meteor might save you in a pinch

I wouldn't have Will-o-Wisp *and* Scald on Jellicent. Will-o-Wisp is good, but maybe use Surf instead. Surf has the extra power, and if you're gonna be burning them first with Will-o-Wisp, no need for Scald. If you wanted Toxic though, I would keep Scald then, just in case you come off with a Burn without sacrificing a turn without damage. So, either Surf + Will-o-Wisp, or Scald + Toxic. Also, jolteon135, different ability would mean getting training up another Jellicent (unless it's not trained up yet, in which case, yeh, Cursed Body :) )

Tanks for the suggestions, but the team doesn't exist yet so I don't hve to train another Jellicent.
@ jolteon135: Hydreigon isn't meant to be a lead but I'll consider it anyways.

Draco Meteor is still good even if you aren't using it as lead. In fact it's probably even better since you'll have already taken out 1 or 2 of the opponents Pokemon before sending in Hydreigon so you won't have to worry about anything setting up on you after the Sp.A drop.
