Abomasnow @ Leftovers
Quiet Nature (+Sp. Atk, -Spd)
Trait: Snow Warning
~ Blizzard
~ Leech Seed
~ Substitute
~ Focus Punch

Definitely lead with Abomasnow so you can get the Hail going. Substitute works great with Leech Seed and Focus Punch, but you can use Grass Knot/Wood Hammer/Brick Break/Earthquake in any of the last three slots if you just want to attack.

Delibird @ Life Orb
Adamant Nature (+Atk, -Sp. Atk)
Trait: Hustle
~ Ice Punch
~ Aerial Ace
~ Brick Break
~ Ice Shard / Seed Bomb

Seed Bomb if you have access to Platinum. Don't use Modest on Delibird; with Adamant and Hustle, it can reach an Attack stat that is over 300! Aerial Ace bypasses Hustle's accuracy drop, Brick Break provides coverage, Ice Punch for power.

Jynx @ Leftovers
Timid Nature (+Spd, -Atk)
Trait: Forewarn
~ Ice Beam
~ Lovely Kiss
~ Substitute
~ Calm Mind / Psychic / Focus Blast

Wake-up Slap is a no-no. Body Slam is bad as well, since Jynx's Attack is dirt poor and the paralysis will actually prevent Lovely Kiss from working. Anyways, with this set, put stuff to sleep then use Substitute to protect yourself, then attack. Calm Mind can boost Special Attack, but you may want another attacking move for coverage.

Stantler @ Leftovers
Adamant Nature (+Atk, -Sp. Atk)
Trait: Intimidate
~ Hypnosis
~ Return
~ Earthquake
~ Confuse Ray / Swagger / Sucker Punch

Put stuff to sleep, then attack. Sucker Punch is great if you have Platinum, otherwise use a confusion-inducing move.

Prinplup @ Life Orb
Modest Nature (+Sp. Atk, -Atk)
Trait: Torrent
~ Surf / Hydro Pump
~ Ice Beam
~ Grass Knot
~ Agility

Agility so that you can outspeed things and attack them before they kill you. Why Prinplup and not Empoleon though? By the way, if you made a mistake and are actually using Empoleon, then this moveset still works.

How does Dewgong fit into this team, anyways? First of all, Rain Dance + Hydration is a fine strategy but fails on a team that has Hail-inducing Abomasnow. Second, how does he support the Christmas theme? How about using an Azelf instead? Not only does it *sort of* support your theme, but it is also a great check for Fighting-types, who tend to plow through Hail-based teams.

Thank you for all of the help. I couldn't think of anything else with dewgong. I would still like to keep present on delibird though.

Edit: I need idea's with who can replace dewgong. (Needs to fit into christmas theme)

Edit 2: What about starmie? as the christmas star? lol

Starmie could work:

Starmie@Choice Specs
Timid
Ice Beam
Psychic
Grass Knot/Thunderbolt
Surf
Specs Starmie. Normally I would suggest Rapid Spin>Psychic, and Life Orb>Choice Specs, but Spinners are basiclly worthless In-Game.

Kk thanks, I will add that to the list. I will probably pick Choice specs because a lot of other things have life orb.
