Generation 4. OU team please rate and or give advice or help. I am willing you change around some movesets but I really need help on the item choices.

Lead/Special Sweeper
Togekiss (M) @ lum berry
Secrene Grace
Modest
EV: Sp. Attack 252 Speed 252 HP 6
-air slash
-roost
-aura sphere
-shadow ball

The only reason this guy is a lead is becuase I can not think of a better one and I want to get rid of my 1 rock type weakness right off the back. Air slash aura sphere and roost are self explainitory but shadow ball I have becuase I lack any other good shadow ball users on my team and it adds move move vareity.

Trick Room Setup/Trick Sweeper
Bronzong @ Leftovers
Levitate
Brave
EV: HP 252 Attack 252 Defense 6
-Iron Head
-Zen Headbutt
-Trick Room
-Earthquake

Main idea for this guy set up trick room become really fast kill the pokemons like a real sweeper or die and switch and out snorlax.

Sleep Talker
Snorlax (F) @ Leftovers
Immunity
Brave
EV: HP 252 Attack 252 Defense 6
-crunch
-sleep talk
-body slam
-rest

Fight rest sleep talk wake up fight basic idea. Body slam high paralize chance and stab and crunch to not be totally walled like earthquaking snorlax by gengar. Again switch this guy out if bronzong fails for unnatural speed.

Tank
Machamp (M) @ Leftovers
No Guard
Adamant
EV: HP 252 Attack 252 HP 6
-Toxic
-Stone Edge
-Payback
-Dynamic Punch

No gaurd tank basic strategey payback to kill off phychic types (he has enough HP to take one hit and turn it back at them) toxic was just becuase of a lack of moves an 100% accuracy but it turns out to work out reall well when facing other walls.

Rapid Spinner
Starmie @ Wacan Berry
Natural Cure
Timid
EV: HP 252 Speed 252 Sp. Attack 6
-rapid spin
-surf
-recover
-psychic

Basic ripid spin idea except that I also speeded it up to either take a hit then spin or go first and spin. I chose psychic over ice beam becuase of the stab.

Special Sweeper
Heatran @ Life Orb
Flash Fire
Modest
EV: Sp. Attack 252 Speed 252 HP 6
-flash cannon
-dragon pulse
-earth power
-heat wave

Thats right a non defensive heatran. How can this be? Well I will tell you heatran has ok speed but not horrible enough for to do that. His speed is fine for most pokemon of course he will not outrun a electrive anytime soon but he is just good enough for most steel and bug types in OU.

Any opinions options help greatly needed. Also if I breakn any bulba-rules please tell me I will try to fix them as soon as I can.
 
No Gyro Ball on Bronzong? For shame. And you might want to make it have 0 IV in speed in order to use it. I do wonder why you have two speedy Pokemon on what could be a Trick Room team.

If you get rid of Toxic on Machamp, you could just make a Choice band set with an Elemental punch.
 
Try Gyro Ball on Zong instead of Iron Head. There is not point of having Immunity on Snorelax since it's SleepTalk. Also get Lefties on Starmie and Fire Blast or Lava Plume on Heatran instead of Heat Wave.
 
I think you should put Thunder Wave on your lead. That slows everything down so you can flinch them to death.

Sorry, no time for a full rate.

I agree with this. My current OU team's lead is a Togekiss with Air Slash, Fire Blast, T-Wave and Encore. Pretty much fucks over all leads.
 
I'd make Machamp Brave if I were you. Take advantage of Trick Room. As for Starmie, there are slower Spinners in OU. Starmie's not ideal in Trick Room. I'd go with Forretress or something.
 
Change Heatran's Nature to Rash or Naive. Replace Heat Wave with Fire Blast and Flash Cannon with Explosion.
 
I think I will keep heat wave and fire blast.

Yeah maybe adding thunderwave and switching starmie with fortress.

Actually no I have tested it out iron head is stronger than gyro ball O.O and his speed is really low too.
 
I fully agree with End Fashion. Right now, your "lead" isn't doing anything that... leads. Generally, a lead either sets something up (Metagross setting up Stealth Rock, Roserade setting up Toxic Spikes, Forretress setting up Spikes) or takes out other common leads (Choice Scarf Moltres takes out all of these leads). Leads that are designed to take out other leads are known as "anti-leads". As the metagame is being explored and tested with, the art of anti-leading is slowly growing. Along with Moltres, there is an anti-lead Lucario, and even an anti-lead Machamp.

While Togekiss wouldn't really satisfy either of these (Although just giving it Flamethrower would go a long way, since there are quite a few Steel-type leads), it COULD cripple leads. However, this would still let them set up before they're crippled.
 
Flamthower never satified my needs but seeing the huge amount of steel types in OU maybe I will try it.

Fo setting things up I have never been a fan of it personally I think it is "cheap" but I relize poeople do it though. Starmie may not be the best rper...

Gyro Ball is still the better option. Did you ever try it on Pokemon with a naturally high base Speed stat? Remember that Gyro Ball works better the lower your speed is and the higher the opponent's speed is.

Oh, and the reason why I recommended Explosion for Heatran is because without it, you'll end up getting walled by Blissey.
 
Yes I know that starmie had it before and it did like do damamge. Bronzongs speed is really low to the lowest is 63 I have 64 and gyro ball is still weaker to iron head.

You have a good point there.
