Stall NatDex OU

Question

Sorry for the short descriptions on what the mons do, I'm not really the best at explaination

Cloyster @ Focus Sash
Ability: Skill Link
EVs: 252 Atk / 4 SpD / 252 Spe
Adamant Nature
- Icicle Spear
- Rock Blast
- Ice Shard
- Shell Smash

Usually used as a last resort, the ace if you will.

Skarmory @ Leftovers
Ability: Sturdy
EVs: 252 HP / 232 Def / 24 Spe
Impish Nature
- Whirlwind
- Stealth Rock
- Spikes
- Brave Bird

The hazard setter.

Latias-Mega @ Latiasite
Ability: Levitate
EVs: 252 SpA / 68 SpD / 188 Spe
Modest Nature
- Mystical Fire
- Draco Meteor
- Recover
- Healing Wish

Made to prolong Skarmory, and Magnezone. Plus generalist.

Tentacruel @ Black Sludge
Ability: Liquid Ooze
EVs: 248 HP / 156 Def / 8 SpA / 96 Spe
Timid Nature
- Rapid Spin
- Toxic Spikes
- Haze
- Scald

This Tentacruel is made to be a counter lead, its my usual lead, plus the presence of Skarmory fools people into sending their Fire-type Pokemon.

Magnezone @ Aguav Berry
Ability: Sturdy
EVs: 252 HP / 4 Def / 252 SpA
Modest Nature
- Flash Cannon
- Thunderbolt
- Toxic
- Mirror Coat

Counter against heavy special attack hitters (mainly Charizard and Serperior).

Garchomp @ Rocky Helmet
Ability: Rough Skin
EVs: 252 HP / 4 Atk / 252 Spe
Jolly Nature
- Earthquake
- Rest
- Roar
- Sleep Talk

Main follow up to the setup.

The formatting is a bit strange,  could you use Showdown importable syntax fron now on?

Its actually the pokepaste format that a good chunk of people use. Anyway, im struggling to understand why you're running sash on cloyster. This is the same pokemon with 180 defense btw. Maybe something like leftovers?

Shell Smash Cloyster cannot take hits.
252+ Atk Choice Band Weavile Knock Off (97.5 BP) vs. -2 0 HP / 0 Def Cloyster: 294-346 (121.9 - 143.5%) -- guaranteed OHKO
252 SpA Greninja-Ash Hydro Pump vs. -2 0 HP / 0 SpD Cloyster: 379-447 (157.2 - 185.4%) -- guaranteed OHKO

I just wouldn't run Shell Smash Cloyster on a stall team. Despite it's high defensive stats, it has little defensive utility due to it's bad typing. Also, how does Mag check Charizard Y? It gets 0hkoed after rocks easily.

---

cloyster is mostly just cleanup so i dont really like sending em out, sure it might be better for that single zard Y but in my experience i do much better in the end if i save my cloyster for the end.

---

Can you convince us that Cloyster is a better choice on a stall team than a Pokemon that would contribute defensive utility?
"Semi stall" is not unheard of but Cloyster seems tacked onto the end of the team without a lot of thought. It's not an especially good Pokemon within Natdex OU in its own right, either.

---

I think that all stall teams in NatDex OU should have Chansey and most should have Mega Sableye.  This team really struggles with most special attackers and especially  Zard Y + Pursuit teams.

honestly i dont know how to explain why cloyster is there, i have no idea how to explain why any of them are there, like i know why but im not much of a typer. my team was just trial and error untill i ended up with this(still room to grow) idk why but i expected someone to explain my team for me when i posted it here lol.
