Basically the old triples Tailwind, with an added taste of Hail/Blizzard. Toxicroak's Fake Out helps in setting up.

...It's a triples mono-poison intended to abuse hail. Given the concept it seems pretty okay to me. Is there nothing else that can Blizzard, though...?

Not many poisonous pokemon can use Blizzard, alas :( Tentacruel, nidoking, nidoqueen are about it.

It does run into some problems against water-heavy teams if the opposition gets the jump on crobat, though.
