Mew@Custap Berry[Synchronize]
Timid 6HP/252Sp.Atk./252Spd.
~Baton Pass
~Nasty Plot
~Thunderbolt
~Ice Beam
Strategy: Baton Pass a Nasty Plot to one of the special sweepers. The Custap Berry is because Mew's defenses are good enough that unboosted attacks often won't OHKO it, but they will sometimes take it to under 1/3 health, so the Custap Berry helps me pull off a Baton Pass against a faster opponent.

Drapion@Scope Lens[Sniper]
Jolly 6HP/252Atk./252Spd.
~Thunder Fang
~Knock Off
~Crunch
~Cross Poison
Strategy: Use Knock Off on walls and Choice users to destroy their strategy. Otherwise, just use the attack that has the best effectiveness. I used Crunch over Night Slash because sometimes the higher base power is better than a slightly higher chance of a Critical Hit.

Typhlosion@Expert Belt[Blaze]
Timid 6HP/252Sp.Atk./252Spd.
~Flamethrower
~Eruption
~Hidden Power[Ice]
~Focus Blast
Strategy: Sweep.

Gengar@Wide Lens[Levitate]
Rash 6HP/252Sp.Atk./252Spd.
~Hypnosis
~Focus Blast
~Shadow Ball
~Thunderbolt
Strategy: Hypnosis and sweep.

Regigigas@Micle Berry[Slow Start]
Bashful Can't EV because it was distributed at level 100
~Iron Head
~Rock Slide
~Icy Wind
~Crush Grip
Strategy: Icy Wind is good against Dragons and helps against faster opponents. Iron Head is good because I seem to get amazing luck with the flinches. Crush Grip is for full-health opponents and Rock Slide is for type coverage and the flinch chance.

Swampert@Leftovers[Torrent]
Impish 252HP/6Atk./252Def.
~Waterfall
~Protect
~Avalanche
~Earthquake
Strategy: Protect to scout the opponent's attacks but otherwise just use whichever attack is most effective.
 
It seems like a pretty good team, personally, but I'm not too crazy about Regigigas as far as Pokemon go. If you're trying to work with favorites, absolutely use Regigigas, but if you're thinking competitively, there's many better options to Regigigas. It's rare that in an intense battle, one of your Pokemon will remain on the field for more than five turns.

X-Scissor is always worth considering on Drapion, but I'm thinking you might not need that coverage given your other Pokemon.

All in all, a very solid team. Mew makes a great Nasty Passer, never really thought of that myself. If you were to replace Regigigas, I'd try using a wall of your own, perhaps with Stealth Rock and/or Rapid Spin.

I'd use Uxie, but the problem is that there is a built-in item clause and Swampert already has Leftovers. Should I change Uxie's item or Swampert's item, or should I use a different wall like Shuckle?
 
use forretress or shuckle. The best two walls in the game. (I believe) Plus forretress can use spikes, stealth rock and toxic spikes to hurt the opponent as it comes in

Erm.. no. Shuckle's horrible, it can't attack, a pain to EV train, has no self recovery move.. there's a lot of things horrible about it. =/ Forretress isn't that great either, since it gets absolutely owned by basically any Fire move. =P

A better wall would be Blisse-- *shot*

So what if it gets owned by any fire move. Unless your dumb enough to keep it on one when you have the option to switch...

Besides it has the entry-hazards, rapid spin, immunity to Toxic Spikes.....

Besides, are you going to argue that Garchomp sucks because of its x4 weak to ice? Argue that its ugly if you want, but you can't deny its power just because of a x4 weak. Haven't you noticed how all the great Pokemon are x4 weak?

That's true. I don't know much about Forretress, so the only thing that came to mind was 'Really weak to fire'. XD;

(Should of looked it up before I said anything. >_>)
 
Yeah, I was thinking of Forretress myself, but I've had some luck with Donphan in the past (using Rapid Spin, Stealth Rock, Roar, and Earthquake). Of course, with a Ground-type already on your team, Forretress' variety could help more.
