Pokemon is fun!
If you want an OU team, Beatic has got to go. I'd instead of Mamoswine in place of it. Mamoswine can do almost everything Beartic can do but much better. It is immune to Sandstorm and Hail and can make good use of the EndeavorSwine set (I'll post it below in a bit). Drapion is also a bit outclassed in OU, so I'd suggest using perhaps Jellicent. Jellicent has great defensive synergy with Mamoswine, taking Water, Fire, and Fighting moves like a champ while Mamoswine is immune to Electric.

So far, the changes are...

Mamoswine @ Focus Sash
Nature: Adamant
Ability: Thick Fat
EVs: 252 Atk / 4 Def / 252 Spe
Moves:
Stealth Rock
Endeavor
Earthquake
Ice Shard

Since you have Jellicent now, you have nothing to fear from Fake Out users, as they cannot reliably break your sash anymore. With Stealth Rock, Jellicent also acts as a great spinblocker, making sure your SR isn't spun away. Endeavor allows you to take your opponent's health down to 1 HP and then pick them off with Ice Shard. Pokemon like Salamence can OHKO you with Draco Meteor, but since you will live with 1 HP, you can just Endeavor and then finish off with an Ice Shard.

Jellicent @ Leftovers
Nature: Bold
EVs: 248 HP / 216 Def / 44 Spe
Ability: Water Absorb
Moves:
Will-O-Wisp
Scald
Taunt
Recover

Bold is the primary nature, as it works well with the EV spread and makes Jellicent more reliable in handling Landorus. Will-O-Wisp allows you to burn Pokemon that are not fire types while Scald helps you burn physical attackers like DNite, breaking its Scale in the process so Mamoswine can OHKO with Ice Shard. This also applies to Salamence, Garchomp, and weakened Lati@s. Taunt shuts down setter uppers like DNite, Salamence, Landorus, etc. They all fear burns from Will O Wisp and Scald. Recover heals you after you do your job.

Hope I helped!

Thanks, but I don't know what an OU team is. I'm new to this competitive battling thing so I need help.

That was an adbot, ignore it.


now....


1. Hail outside a Hail team is usually not a good idea.

2. No one use Bold on Alakazam. Modest/Timid, with Calm Mind over Reflect and Shadow Ball-Focus Blast for the two attacking moves, and Psyshock instead of Psychic for the STAB, so that you can give a hard hit on things with high SDef but low Def.

3. Gliscor with no EQ? EQ is literally a must on it.....

4. Bold is a bad Nature for Electivire, and Calm is a bad Nature for Leafeon.




Now, I don't know if this will be great in competitive or not, but personally I think this is a quite fun set for Drapion.

Drapion @ Scope Lens
Adamant/Jolly Nature, Sniper ability
~Cross Poison
~Night Slash
~Earthquake
~Ice Fang

Gliscor with SD should use Swords Dance l Earthquake l Roost l Acrobatics imo. Stalling set w/ Poison Heal is good with Earthquake l Toxic l Substitute l Protect.

OU means OverUsed. It is the main competitive realm of battling.
