If you're going to pass anything, you should probably consider passing Speed to Marowak. That or you should spread some Paralysis around because Marowak doesn't outspeed jack. I'm assuming Marowak is your endgame cleanup Poke.

I also don't see the point of your 'backup pokes'. It's not like you can sub them in halfway through. And there's no point saying you can stop threat X or Y because one of your reserves can do it.

Paralysis sounds like a good idea.

It's just so that I can vary my team from battle to battle. That way I don't become predictable
 

Zondrina

You lose... ;)
Metagross looks like it will cause 5/6 of your team lots of problems. Especially if its a rest talking meta. But either way cb and agili will also cause you problems.

I recomend sticking swampert on your team to wall meta and set up / roar it / KO it.

Also any rest talking / DD gyara will basically shut down your team. Rest talking for sure and DD possibly if it has time to set up 2 ddances.

You need thunderbolt or hp electric somewhere on there to deal with gyara.

Rest talking / choicing / SD heracross could also cause you problems. Try swaping zong for gliscor.

But really thats up to you.

Replacing Toxic with EQ on Zong would make him a fine Metagross counter.

Loads of teams would have trouble with a Gyara that somehow managed to get 2 DDs in. The point is you don't let it set up in the first place. However, apart from Froslass, none of your Pokes carry an Electric move so you might want to replace Ice Beam or Toxic on Vaporeon with HP Electric.

Maybe replace Beam on Empoleon with Rest and give it some def EVs in case of CC and EQ.

Replaced Beam w/ Rest on Empoleon and Toxic w/ EQ on Zong.

Btw, seeing as how I'm pretty new to this (and just in general), it's more helpful to tell me what to change it to than it is to tell me to change it.
