this looks like the very best team it could be.

scarves on flygon (and maybe azelf) would, imo, work better though. maaaaaaaaaaaaaybe trick on azelf? (but that would defeat the purpose of an all-choice team)

Your entire team has U-Turn as well as being choiced, I see. Getting to scout the counter and switch in as you please with every Pokemon. I like.

I'm assuming you have things like Azelf and Flygon with Choice Band instead of Choice Scarf in order to do as much damage with U-Turn as possible, it's best to be as physically inclined as possible, which explains things like Fire Punch Azelf instead of the standard Flamethrower/Fire Blast (Which would be usually seen on a scarf/sash Azelf). Of course, that comes with the loss of some speed, but it's easily made up for with the scouting you get from having U-Turn on 100% of your team.

I like this team a lot, however, DDGyara might give you some trouble without Flygon. Even then, watch out.

It would like to be able to switch into a Gyara's DD and then Stone Edge.

I'd really recommend scarfing azelf, infernape, or flygon; with jirachi as your only scarfer revenge killing could become difficult.
Tormentran 6-0s you, not much that can be done about that.
Stall looks like a pretty big problem to this team.

Overall though, it looks hella fun to play. And it was pretty fun to play against, too.

I did Scarf Flygon just cus losing to +1 speed pokemon was getting bothersome.

I need an electric attack somewhere as well.

Also Im thinking of making Staraptor Adamant for a guaranteed 2HKO on Hippowdon.

This team is simultaneously the easiest and hardest team anyone can possibly play with. The fact that it relies 100% on constant switching and you only get one chioce to make a move means that any misprediction can cost a KO.

Simply run a dozen or so test matches with Adamant Staraptor and see how it does.

heatran subs as flygon switches in, torments on the earthquake. sets up a sub as flygon struggles, protects against next eq, and proceeds to alternate lava plume and protect. gg

Heatran has a very small chance of pulling that off. Its only theorycraft, not only that, TormentTrans are rare.

Torment Tran CANNOT switch into anything. It risks getting U-Turned into Infernape, Staraptor, or Flygon.
Therefore, Torment Tran MUST get in after a Pokemon has fainted.
Not only that, but it has to use the Substitute on the turn, and not mispredict something else.

In the end, the chance of TormentTran 6-0ing this team is so small that it is absolutely ignorable.

It's not that hard to get tran in. It just has to switch in on a choiced move it resists, such as fire punch, bullet punch, overheat, iron head... the list goes on. It just takes a bit of prediction. And if it's a TormentTran, then OF COURSE they are going to substitute, that's how TormentTran is played. Once TormentTran gets a sub then PinkReaper loses.
In fact, i'll post his team. Everything Heatran can switch in on will be red:

It cant switch in on Brave Bird lol.

Staraptor Brave Bird/Double Edge against standard Torment Tran: 37.5% - 44.5%

Assuming rocks are up it will have to roll min damage both times to have enough health to Sub after a torment(since I'd have to switch)

Also, I have a "Last Resort" against torment tran in Azelf. Explosion means I can take out it's sub and get a free switch. That seems extreme but meh, that's all I use Azelf for anyways lol.
