He he, meh good old go spiked and a bit hiiigh team... My first combo with breloom, that's first.
How the order is meant to go is...
Go spiked and a bit high!
Breloom faints after time or switches out.
Originally I was meant to have a cresselia use healing wish and revive breloom, but that doesn't work.
Swalot faints,
Metagross comes out.
Breloom is meant to come out here.
Metagross uses per up punch a couple of times if possible and meteor mash to rid the ghost types.
Metagross explodes (wattaya expect?)
Breloom survives under substitute.
Pkmn die
I win
GG...
... That's not what happens so I need you to give my mons a buff up, here are my conditions...
Breloom, metagross and suicune NEED to stay.
Keep swalot if possible
I would be happy to keep infernape.
And importantly, breloom must work with metagross with explosion, if not that would defeat the whole purpose of my team.
Suicune needs to know rain, that is all.
EXPLOSIONS! Like it?
Here I have a replay for ya here

You should have full EVs on Breloom.

Also, you might want to keep Infernape specialized to either physical or special so you can concentrate your EVs.

For Suicune, there really isn't a reason to have HP Electric. Ice Beam covers Flying and you you can do okay damage to Water types if you get Scald instead of Surf. If you replace Hidden Power with Rest, you can use it to heal Life Orb damage.

Metagross needs to have attack EVs instead of Def and SpD EVs. Health EVs can stay.

If you want, you can give Contrary and Shell Smash, to Shuckle to boost its defensive abilities. Get Infestation instead of Toxic since you already have someone with Toxic.

Sorry if I can only give a few tips I'm not that good myself.
Thanks I didn't even notice my breloom was not fully uped in ev's
Ha, that's probably why I'm failing,.
Not the exploding Metagross again...Oh, and you might want to teach spore to your Breloom.
Yup, he's back and more than just a dream, like my example picture?
Why spore?
Man the name fits so well, shroom boom team.
Because 100% chance of sleep is OP, and not very many people use grass Pokemon.
Ugh... don't mention Spore please.
I really hate that move.
That's why resto chesto unburden is also OP. I use it on a Hawlucha and all Brelooms fall for it.
Another thing I've noticed is that even thoughh the OP said this was a  doubles team, the only move that can hit more than 1 target is Surf and Explosion, both of which will also hurt your teammates a lot.
@sumwun, yeah not mine XD.
@Awildnoobappeared,
There's rock slide at the top of my head that attacks two targets of the opposing side so your teammate doesn't get hurt, and earthquake as well... Surf is beneficial to those with water absorp/dry skin.
pokemon with telekinesis don't get hurt by there partners indirectly.
Aaaaaand finally,
EXPLOSIONS ARE AWESOME AND ARE AVOIDED BY STUPID GHOST TYPES AND PROTECT/SUBSTITUTE!
