Team thoughts...

Deoxys Prime

Time will tell.
I have all of the following pokemon, I just need proper movesets for them and training done, EV training.

Lugia
EVs: 252 HP, 126 Sp. Attack, 126 Sp. Defense
Nature: Mild
Moveset
Calm Mind
Psychic
Surf
Recover
(Basic huh?)

Mewtwo
EVs: 252 Sp. Atk, 200 Speed, 56 Defense
Nature: Mild again
Moveset
Ice Beam
Psychic
Calm Mind
Thunderbolt
(Good for Kyogre bolting, beaming quazas and Groudons with good enough speed to pass all 3 most of the time)

Groudon
EVs: 252 Attack, 200 speed, 56 Sp. Attack
Nature: Adamant
Moveset
Swords Dance
Earthquake
Flamethrower
Rock Slide (Need to beat Sheddy, or else he'll crap all over my team)


(This is 2 v 2, will have 4th pokemon up by tomorrow.)

Feel free to laugh at my addiction to Ubers... They look cool for one thing. Well,

~Prime out~

Yeah, Ice is the big one, I'm trying to find an Ice resister, I think that Regice'll cover it, my regice has this moveset, he is not EV trained sadly...
Moveset
Thunderbolt
Ice Beam
Thunder wave
Protect (Earthquake savior)

Well, It needs some modifications, the massive offense here is not too good, I was thinking of throwing in a annoyer sceptile...
EVs: 252 speed, 126 Sp. attack, 126 Sp. Defense, 4 HP
Moveset
Leech Seed
Toxic
Substitute
Leaf blade

Well, these might replace some of my team, some may be put at the end. Well, What do you think?

For the annoyer Sceptile, use Substitute instead of Double Team, and give it Leftovers as well. Seedstalling will annoy your opponent more than Double Team, mainly because they could use Aerial Ace which is pretty common since its extremely hard to get a good HP Flying in-game. I don't know about Regice, so I can't suggest anything there.

Hey thanks! I got the natures for a few, besides, I'm gonna retrain now. They're imperfect so I'll start the game over, my good pokemon are on emeral anyway. So then I'll perfect my EVs.

modest for lugia and mewtwo.
 
These above suggestions have me shaking my head.

Lugia @ Leftovers
EVs: 192 HP / 212 Spd / 24 SAtk / 80 SDef
Calm Nature (+SAtk, -Atk)

Mewtwo
EVs: 252 Sp. Atk, 252 Speed /6 HP
Modest Nature (+SAtk, -Atk)

Choose between either Mewtwo or Lugia. You can't have both, since they're both Psychic-types and the sets are both Calm Mind/Psychic/Thunderbolt/Recover

Groudon
EVs: 44 HP / 252 Attack, 188 speed, 24 Sp. Attack
Nature: Adamant Kay, but then FB is needed over FT
Swords Dance
Earthquake
Flamethrower Fire Blast
Rock Slide (Need to beat Sheddy, or else he'll crap all over my team) So then use a (p)hazer.
Suggested changes are in bold.
 

Deoxys Prime

Okay, thanks, the movesets are okay other than your suggestions, also, I can't easily get another of either, so I geuss I'll have to go get another,lol. I'll go catch brand new ones. Well, If I add another pokemon, what works well with groudon? I think I'll use my lugia due to the flying EQ resistance, and can cover Groudy's weaknesses, Regice resists Ice, and I don't think Sceptile will work, Ice moves will probably be common too. Dangit. I might as well use a water type... but what... Maybe I'll use my metagross. Alright then.

Metagross
EVs: 252 Attack, 128 speed, 72 Sp. Atk, 56 HP
@Lefties
Meteor Mash
Earthquake
Shadow Ball
Psychic/Brick Break

Set 2
EVs: 252 Atk, 128 Def, 128 Speed
@Choice Band
Meteor Mash
Earthquake
Shadow Ball

Well these are very similar to the POTW sets, okay? I just need a decent gross...

Edit: BTW, I don't want to be an idiot, but, whats a (P)hazer?

Good, but it needs some Defense to stop Rock Slide using Speedsters.

Mewtwo
EVs: 252 Sp. Atk, 200 Speed, 56 Defense
Nature: Mild again
Moveset
Ice Beam
Psychic
Calm Mind
Thunderbolt
(Good for Kyogre bolting, beaming quazas and Groudons with good enough speed to pass all 3 most of the time)
Like what Nine Thou said, two Psychics ain't good. Don't add Metagross, either.

Groudon
EVs: 252 Attack, 200 speed, 56 Sp. Attack
Nature: Adamant
Moveset
Swords Dance
Earthquake
Flamethrower
Rock Slide (Need to beat Sheddy, or else he'll crap all over my team)
Flamethrower kills Shedinja as well.

A Pokémon that uses Whirlwind/Roar to change the opponent's stats. A Hazer uses Haze to do the same thing. [/obvious description]

Thanks! I'll use just one psychic, I'll not use gross, maybe something to resist ice... Any Ideas? I need another.

hehe, lol. He means (+Sp Def, -Attack)
 

Deoxys Prime

Alright. I'll make a few grosses, gee. I have a Metang and a beldum, so I'll just train em.

Psychic was for coverage, but yeah, you're right. I'll try your ideas and a few other pokemon.

I prefer bold lugia.
 
Bold Lugia > Calm Lugia.

252/129/129 spreads are worst EV spreads ever. Don't use them.
 

Deoxys Prime

Time will tell.
...Okay, I've decided, not finally, but what I think, I'm taking many recomendations into this one.

Lugia
EVs: 252 HP, 126 Sp. Atk, 62 Sp. Def, 68 Def
@Lefties
Modest
Thunderbolt (Flying type/water type destroyer)
Psychic (STAB)
Recover (Recovers HP, so why not?)
Calm Mind (You know the drill)
Standard Lugia set

Groudon
@???(Unsure)
Adamant
EVs: 252 Atk, 80 Sp. Def, 176 Speed
Swords Dance (+ attack really helps)
Earthquake (STAB)
Rock Slide (Breaks, Lugia, Zapdos, Ho-oh, Moltres, Articuno, and Quaza)
Brick Break (Ice stopper)
Physical Groudon

Regice
@???(Same here)
Quiet
EVs: 252 Sp. Atk, 80 Sp. Defense, 176 Defense
Ice Beam (STAB)
Thunderbolt (Bolt Beam)
Thunder Wave (Very useful)
Curse (Raise Defense, anything better I could use?)
Bolt Beaming Regice

Now I need a good last character, any ideas? Maybe Slaking?

Bold Lugia.
Lugia Evs-120 HP, 200 Def, 190 Sp Attack
Could use Jolly Groudon.
Groudon Evs-52 HP, 204 Attack, 254 Speed.
On regice, You will want Rest/Psych Up>Curse. Mainly cos you are cursing up for nothing.
Regice Evs-150 HP, 168 Def, 188 Sp Attack, 4 Sp Def @ Bold
Something like that.

Standard is whirlwind/calm mind/recover/ice beam(thunderbolt/psychic-rarely) for lugia.

@FM, regice needs more special defense evs if you are running bold.
