Lord of the Rings meets the world of Pokemon! Won't be top-grade, but it's got a decent chance of survival in singles OU, I think.

A balance of physical and special attackers, with a tendency to do just that little bit better in sandstorms. The old walls like Skarmbliss may give it a little trouble, but otherwise, it's done alright thus far. Priority ice on the likes of weavile does present some problems.

And no sprites were given here - I'm hoping to encourage more people to take a peek into the LotR universe (at least the movies, or the books if you're free) :)

oh lord, memories.

this team is pretty cool, but why the spread out EVs in defenses on Hydreigon and Cacturne? What exactly do you survive that you wouldn't normally with just 252/252/4 standard spread?

Those were old sets - might have grabbed the wrong hydreigon/cacturne from the boxes... will take a look.
