A few things to change here:

For one, you didn't list the items here. I'll help you out here.

Dusknoir@Life orb
I'd suggest this since you're running Pain split on Dusknoir

Bronzong@Occa berry
Occa berry's been doing well for me. It saves you from super effective Flare Blitz and Fire blasts.

Blissey@leftovers
You can't say Blissey without leftovers. 8D

Rampardos@Expert belt/Focus sash
works well since you have access to SE moves. Focus sash if you are faint-hearted of Weavile and Salamence.

Rhyperior@Choice band
A good choice if Bronzong is still alive. If he is, you can switch in safely.

Now for the problems:

You can't honestly expect Bronzong to make any KOs with earthquake, right? Run Light screen or Reflect to help support your team. Or Hypnosis as another option.

Replace Thunderbolt on Blissey with something else like Shadow ball or Calm mind. You can't risk the 10% chance of paralasis can you?

You don't need Stone edge and Head smash on Rampardos. Try Swords dance if you predict a switch. Or Hammer Arm since this is a trick room. Protect over focus punch. Rampardos doesn't like getting hit.

Ice fang over Avalanche. Avalanche makes you go after the opponent and Rhyperior is exposed to a lot of weaknesses on his part.

I would run Magnezone over Porygon-Z. Base speed 90 isn't exactly a magic number in a trick room. And i don't see the point of Rain dance and Thunder (highly unrecommended). Try Charge beam and Explosion over Gyro ball and thunder.

My thoughts and service, though someone else will do a better job than me.

Thanks for the advice i guess that earthquake on bronzong may have been a little pointless and the point of raindance is that apparently rain dance increases thunders accuaracy and i didnt put in items cos im still working on them

yes rain dance makes thunder have 100% accuracy so i think i will go with the rain dance/thunder combo

NO! No Thunder! The one thing any Trick room team should not risk is Paralysis. If the opponent gets paralyzed, what do you think happens?

Paralysis still affects speed in a trick room so paralyzed opponents may go first. It's something you can't risk.

You can keep rain dance to rid of Sandstorm or Rain dance but if you must have an electric move then use Charge beam. It has a better side effect with no chance of paralysis.

Listen to this guy. seriously, that raindance + thunder combo is horrible. u waste two turns in a strategy (trick room) that takes a turn to set up anyway - u wont get chance. against a decent opponent, u need to hit hard and fast as long as trick room stays active otherwise theyre gonna break magnezone down since it is weak against a lot of stuff. Plus, be VERY careful when using Rampardos in a Double Battle since none of ur pokemon will be immune to its earthquake due to mold breaker. u never actually listed if it wos a singles or doubles team so im gonna hope its a single otherwise u have a lot to do to synchronise ur team. I would also advise against blissey for this particular team, since u already have 2 walls listed n only a couple pokemon to cause any serious damage in the time that trick room gives u. i would highly suggest another physical sweeper to take blisseys place that can take advntage of trick room and cause some serious damage b4 trick room runs out and leaves u stranded. an excellent one would be rhyperior, tyrannitar or swampert.

You don't need to worry about them getting paralyzed. It won't happen hehehe :) Well if you think like I do it won't happen. I think you need more then just 2 Pokemon for trick room. Maybe 3 Pokemon would be better that can use trickroom, but that's just me being safe. :rolleyes:

I'm pretty sure it's against the rules to bump a 9 month old thread. you should've just made a new post, i bet it took you ages to find this one anyway. (but let's face it, this is serebii CRMT, who the f**k follows the rules?) -_-

well actually I just looked up threads that I had started so yknow it came up with like two so it was kinda easy to find this one. Also you can bump if you believe it still has life left in it which it does, it may be near death but its still alive. but meh 3 points if i did break the rules, so 17 more and i'll get banned from here for 1 week ooohhh scarey.

LOL!@the the end.
well aren't you just one badass mofo? XD

btw 252/204/54 spreads don't acheive much of anything, just go 216 in what ever stat you have a +nature in to acheive a jump point, then dump the rest in a random stat, usually the stat you're attacking with.

Why exactly dont they achieve much?

That's a poor way to Ev.

i meant that way on defensive pokemon, which is mainly ev'ing for lefties point, jump point in whatever def you're using then the rest in the other Def or the attacking stat you're using, obviously the way you EV for things changes depending on what it needs to counter, like vappy needing 252/252 to deal with mixape and gyarados.
