Ok this team was up before but I made a couple of revisions
Abomasnow @Leftovers
Sassy(+SpD, -Spd)
Snow Warning
252 Hp/20 SpA/160 SpD/76 Spd
-Focus Punch
-Blizzard
-Leech Seed
-Substitute
He is my starter so I can whip up a Hailstorm, this time I gave it leech seed and Substitute. I took off Wood hammer and replaced it w/ Focus punch.
(Smogon)Walrein @Leftovers
Impish(+Def, -SpA)
Ice Body
252 Hp/252 Def/6 SpA
-Substitute
-Encore
-Blizzard/Avalanche
-Earthquake/Surf/Toxic
(Smogon)Walrein is highly unlikely to be sweeping, but he can use Encore to help a team mate set up. Encore a Thunderbolt, switch to a Ground type, Encore a Fighting attack, switch to a Ghost, you get the idea. You can also Encore stat boosting attacks, recovery moves, etc. Giving a team mate another possibility of a free switch in. Substitute helps to ensure you don't take too much damage from Encored attacks. Toxic can be used to spread status when Encore forces a switch.
Froslass @Choice Specs/Bright Powder
Timid(+Spd, -Atk)
Snow Veil
252 SpA/252 Spd/6 SpD
-Blizzard
-Thunderbolt
-Shadow Ball
-Psychic/Destiny Bond
Froslass is my Secial sweeper, with the speed of a Gengar, it is still underpowered which is why CS is there. Also my modified version of BoltBeam, Blizzard=STAB, Shadow Ball also=STAB, plus T-bolt for more coverage. The last slot could have been for HP fighting which can hit T-Tar and Weavile. While Psychic stops Un-Scarfed Heracross. Bright Powder with Snow Cloak is for evasion Hax and for more freedom of moves allowing it to Destiny Bond
Mamoswine @Choice Band
Adamant(+Atk, -SpA)
Snow Veil
252 Atk/200 Spd/56 Hp
-Earthquake
-Ice Shard
-Stone Edge
-Peck
Earthquake puts massive holes in bulky waters trying to Surf him. Ice Shard makes up for its average speed and also destroys Dragons, it also helps with its grass weakness. Stone Edge is there to hit fliers hard. HaHaHa, Peck...as a move...Yes. Peck is there for one reason and that is to OHKO Heracross
Tentacruel@Leftovers
Calm(+SpD, -Atk)
Clear Body
204Hp/96 SpA/172 SpD/36 Spd
-Surf
-Rapid Spin
-Toxic Spikes
-Hidden Power Elec
Tentacruel serves as my spinner to get rid of Stealth Rocks. Surf is the obvious choice. Toxic Spikes gives you some more support for wearing down opponents and can prove useful to drain the likes of Dusknoir and Spiritomb, who will block Rapid Spin. HP Elec for other waters and for Gyarados
Heatran@Choice Scarf
Naive(+ Spd, -SpD)
Flash Fire
16Hp/252SpA/240SpD
-Fire Blast/Overheat
-Explosion
-Dragon Pulse
-Earth Power
Not too much to say on Heatran. Great pokemon to switch in on oncoming fire attacks giving it a double STAB Overheat or Fire Blast. Scarf to outspeed other scarfers notably Heracross. Earth Power provides excellent coverage on both Tyranitar and Rhyperior though Specs would allow a 2HKO. When Heatran is close to fainting, you can use Explosion to take out another Pokémon. This is in game.
So this my Hailstorm team. Those who wonder why I use Blizzard instead of Ice Beam, that is because in the Hail, Blizzard has 100% accuracy and is stronger than Ice Beam. I made some changes to my team. I now have Tentacruel over Weavile so I can have a spinner and also provide support in the form of Toxic Spikes. Also I added Heatran who resists Stealth Rocks and can deal some damage...a bonus if it switches in on a fire attack.
