Zapdos @ Leftovers
Calm Nature
252 HP / 220 Sp.Def / 36 Speed
~ Discharge
~ Heat Wave
~ Light Screen
~ Roost

only thing i have that can really lead. discharge for the para chance, light screen because i like playing defencive, and i need the extra sdef.

Starmie @ Choice Specs
Timid Nature
136 HP / 156 Def / 216 Speed
~ Recover
~ Thunderbolt
~ Trick
~ Surf

needed something fast that could hit reasonably hard, and trick is such a good move

Latias @ Leftovers
Calm Nature
252 HP / 116 Def / 112 Sp.Def / 28 Speed
~ Dragon Pulse
~ Reflect
~ Surf
~ Wish

lol latias got unbanned. id rather have the wish support than use recover and reflect at least gives me a chance of getting away from scizor and tyranitar

Forretress @ Shed Shell
Impish Nature
252 HP / 42 Atk / 216 Def
~ Earthquake
~ Gyro Ball
~ Rapid Spin
~ Stealth Rock

Hariyama @ Leftovers
Impish Nature
76 HP / 180 Atk / 252 Def
~ Force Palm
~ Ice Punch
~ Knock Off
~ Whirlwind

tyranitar isn't getting past this. force palm for the para chance, ice punch for gliscor. last two support moves are obvious choices.

Gyarados @ Leftovers
Impish Nature
252 HP / 232 Def / 24 Speed
~ Dragon Dance
~ Stone Edge
~ Taunt
~ Waterfall

everything leads up to this. nature and evs are like this because it can then take on infernape/lucario/whatever a lot easier. might go rest/sleep talk/dragon dance/waterfall, maybe.

every pokemon with speed evs has just enough speed evs to outspeed what it needs to. i.e zapdos outspeeds jolly tyranitar in case it needs to finish one off, etc.

i'm pretty sure specsmence will give me problems but i'm not sure what i can do about it without changing the whole team around completely. outrage salamence is more popular anyway, which is stopped by forretress once locked into outrage, or intimidated by gyarados and beaten/forced out by stone edge.

haven't played d/p properly for about 8 months so i'm not sure what is heavily used right now apart from scizor/outrage mence, scizor is easily stopped by gyarados/zapdos anyway, as is metagross. i'm pretty sure this team has most things completely covered though.

trapeze teddiursa!
if starmies running specs he should have ice beam over recover. lead zapdos is usually scarfed. That ones not really a lead. as DC said you lack a good status absorber. i think JRCxyz has a good rest talking gyarados set ask him. Or possibly he'll post after me 'gasp!'. anyways in the meantime things you can look at

212hp evs gives gyarados a max lefties point.

216def evs gives gyarados the highest jump point

you already have higher ev investments than that but you could cut down and invest in sp.def
