Psychic sucks versus Ubers.

Groudon @ Salac Berry
252 Atk; 200 Speed; 40 HP; 18 Sp def (not completely sure if they're like that)
Adamant (+Atk; -Sp Atk)

Earthquake (Stab)
Flamethrower / Fire Blast / Substitute / Protect
Ancientpower (>Rockslide?)
Swords Dance
Yes there is enough time to Sword Dance. Brick Break sucks, jame a Fire move or Sub/protect there. Ancient Power sucks, if you can Hidden Power Rock else I guess you're stuck with it.

Kyogre @ Petaya Berry / Chesto Berry
Modest (+Sp Atk; -Atk)
252 Sp Atk; 252 Speed (???)

Waterfall (>Surf for DB?)
Thunder (Duh!)
Ice Beam / Rest
Calm Mind
Keep Waterfall, Surf's damage is halved in 2v2. Even though it's f-ing retarded Chesto-Rest is an option, 'specially with this retarded Item Clause crap.

Rayquaza @ Lum Berry / Petaya Berry
Modest (+Sp Atk; -Atk)
252 Sp Atk; 252 Speed

Dragon Claw (STAB plus other Dragons)
Thunderbolt
Crunch (annoying Psychics)
Ice Beam
Eh, special sweeper quaza is meh, tbh if there was ever a time for a Choice Bander it would be item clause with him.

------

Groudon or Kyogre, 1 or the other. Personally I'd say lead with Groudon and give it one of the following to support it (replacing Kyogre):

Exeggutor @ Lum Berry
Trait: Chlorophyll
EVs: 48 Atk / 208 Spd / 252 SAtk
Rash Nature (+SAtk, -SDef)
- Sleep Powder
- Solar Beam
- Explosion
- Stun Spore
Note: Needs Protect on whoever it's teamed with.

Jumpluff @ Lum Berry
Trait: Chlorophyll
EVs: 6 HP / 252 SAtk / 252 SDef
Modest Nature (+SAtk, -Atk)
- Solar Beam
- Sleep Powder
- Stun Spore / Leech Seed / Helping Hand / Encore
- Stun Spore / Leech Seed / Helping Hand / Encore
Supportive.

If you didn't guess, Chlorphil gives them monster speed to put whoever you want to Sleep and Stun Spore slows down another Poke. Eggy can Boom, Jumpy has a bunch of funky supportive moves and both are likely to go down pretty quick so make the most of it.

Also, since Rayquaza messes up Chlorphil by breaking Sunny Day I'd say get rid of him for something, but too lazy to think of what.
 
You should bear in mind that BLubers often appear in uber battling as I have experienced. Watch out for (and consider using) Exeggcutor, Shedinja, Blissey, tyranitar, Metagross, Slaking, Ninjask, Shiftry, Celebi, Jirachi, Heracross, Snorlax, Ludicolo, Lanturn, Quagsire, Porygon 2, Jumpluff, Skarmory, Forretress, raikou, Trapinch, Kabutops, Linoone. these are all Pokemon I have seen in uber battles. The n00bs just use a team of 5 or 6 ubers, but competitive people do use the others. Make counters for them.

For Kyogre have a Salac berry. The reasoning behind this is that Kyogre is a very common starter in uber battling. If 2 Kyogres start off, people will sometimes leave it in. A kyogre nearly dies from a Thunder from another Kyogre. This will activate the Salac berry and give you the chance to 1HKO the other Kyogre. In double battles, Groudon and Ho-oh/Exeggcutor are often openers. I dunno how a Salac berry would fair in this situation, but it works against other Kyogres. I find a Liechi berry nice on a Groudon too.

STAB Earthquake = 150 power

Super Effective Brick Break = 150 power

pretty much useless and a waste of a moveslot

Good point. I used to have Brick Break on Groudon and I only needed it against Tyranitars really. Tyranitars are very rare in uber battling, but they do appear. Brick Break is a waste.

Same maths applies to TTar ya know:

75 x 4 = 300
150 x 2 = 300

Maths ftw

I was thinking to lead with Groudon and Mewtwo(Flamethrower) or Groudon(Earthquake) and Rayquaza. I am still wondering what to replace Brick Break. And Willowwhisp, who should I ditch so I can go with Exeggutor or Jumpluff?
 
Groudon, Kyogre, Rayquaza cancel eachother out. Just lead with Jumpluff and Groudon. Jumpluff is supportive to Groudon and vice versa, you know?

OK I'm taking out Kyogre for Exeggutor and replacing Brick Break with Protect. I need to replace one of Exeggutor's moves so I can Protect Earthquake-Stun Spore or Sleep Powder?

Yes

Groudon @ Salac Berry
252 Atk; 200 Speed; 40 HP; 18 Sp def
Adamant (+Atk; -Sp Atk)

Earthquake
Protect
Ancientpower
Swords Dance / Substitute
It has 101 Subs, which can help activate Salac to.

Rayquaza @ Petaya Berry
Modest (+Sp Atk; -Atk)
252 Sp Atk; 252 Speed

Dragon Claw
Thunderbolt
Crunch
Ice Beam
Meh

Exeggutor @ Lum Berry
Rash Nature (+Sp Atk, -Sp Def) Why Rash?
48 Atk; 208 Spd; 252 Sp Atk

Sleep Powder
Solar Beam
Explosion
Protect / Stun Spore
Protect isn't neccesery since nothing else is booming. Useful with EQ I suppose so keepable. Rash since you don't want to lower your Speed or Attacks.

Not true. Since its In-game based, there is a very Rare chance of getting a 31 HP IV.

EDIT: Ignore above poster.

I was gonna say "he could just rebreed for a 31 HP IV" but yeah, forgot 'Legends' can't breed, so yeah, disregard the 101 Subs comment since it'd be a pain in the arse to get a 404 HP Groudon. What can I say? I'm an NB man, I don't think of things in terms of cartridge anymore.

I have Protect because I don't want to lose HP when Groudon EQs. I know it's not effective but Groudon has STAB and high Attack. About the Nature, isn't Mild better? Actually Eggy has more physical weaknesses so maybe not.
