UU/Alternatives Trick Room Team

This is my first attempt at a trick room team but thought i would use some UU's/alternative sets (plus one or 2 bog standard OU's)
Anyway this is it:

Dusknoir @ Chesto Berry
Calm
252 S.de 252 HP 4 S.at
Pressure
Shadow Ball
Rest
Curse
Trick room

Ok this guy sets up Trick Room then using curse for damage and shadow ball damage the opponent. Rest to heal Curse damage Chesto Berry/Rest combo guarantees at least 2 curses


Gyarados @ Iron Ball
Quiet
252 S.at 252 HP 4 Def
Intimidate
Surf
Thunder
Dragon Pulse
Hyper Beam

Ok so i wanted him again for a change but since i wanted UU basically i decided to make him special to make him different.


Torterra @ Leftovers
Sassy
252 S.de 252 HP 4 Def
Overgrow
Curse
Wood Hammer
Earthquake
Synthesis/Stone Edge/Crunch

Curse to raise Attack and Defence and make it even slower in Trick Room. S.De and HP EV's so it is all round bulky afer some Curses.


Bronzong @ Light Clay
Sassy
?
Levitate
Light Screen
Reflect
Trick Room
Iron Head

Basically a Dual SCreener and secondary Trick Room set upper. Iron Head > Gyro Ball because of Trick Room



Crobat @ Life Orb
Quiet
252 S.at 252 HP 4 Def
Inner Focus
Heat Wave
Air Slash
Shadow Ball
Hypnosis

basically this guy is something different again. Shadow Ball > Sludge Bomb for better coverage.



Rhyperior @ Expert Belt
Brave
252 Atk 252 Def 4 HP
Solid Rock
Earthquake
Stone Edge
Ice Punch
Aqua Tail

basically a physical sweeper. Ice Punch > Avalanche as it will be going first in Trick Room anyway (hopefully). Aqua Tail because i didn't know what else to put there


Ok so that is my team. Rate away!

Crobat in a TR team!? I thought Weavile was too fast to be in a TR team! Now Crobat?
Gah, remove it for Muk or something.

Muk@Black Sludge
Adamant
252 ATK, 252 HP, 6 SpD
Gunk Shot
Ice Punch/ThunderPunch/Fire Punch
Ice Punch/ThunderPunch/Fire Punch
Shadow Sneak

This works as it should. Gunk Shot for STAB, the punches for range, Shadow Sneak for the slow Ghosts in TR.

And lose Gyarados for a Standard Gyro Ball TR Steelix.

Super, super =D
Seriously, a CROBAT in a TRICK ROOM team? I agree with ^

Crobat can *possibly* do well if you save it for last when the Trick Room should've worn off. I would personally replace a fer TR sweepers for those designed to operate in a TR-free environment, as it's likely not going to last long enough for your other Pokémon to sweep in.

Never tried this, but use a max-speed suicidal Alakazam. How random, but it sets up TR so quick, so then the slow Pokémon can attack right ever. If you're lucky, Alakazam can attack and OHKO.
