Mega Mawile is banned, so I don't know if it's worth a team slot, but the rest of the team's looking pretty solid.

Oh.  How didn't I notice that?  I'll have to revise, but thanks!

Any ideas what to replace it with?

Both of your trickroom setters are psychic type and slow. A dark type pokemon wouldnt have any trouble stop this set up of yours, considering it can also make a hard hit to marowak aswell. 

 

As for banned mawile mega, If you want a trick room attacker, I would suggest escavalier. Godlike typing, 20 speed and 135 attack will fit that slot very well..

 

For marowak alola, smartest choice is giving it lightningrod. That gives a free electric immunity and BLOCKS the volt switches, that will cause your enemy to lose a bit momentum. ( No need to mention marowak hits like a truck with thick club). 

 

 

 

Your team looks decent for a trickroom team other than those.. Just dont forget to give your pokemons - speed nature and 0 speed IV's for max potential.

Aside from the banned mega Mawile, the team looks solid! BUT I have to say that full TR teams can get countered really easy. You should consider to add a pokemon that can fuction outside of TR, usualy something realy fast.
Suggestions: In Mawile's place you can use any slow hard hitting mon like SD crawdaunt, Escavalier, Rhyperior, Bewear etc. or any other fast mega that can work outside of TR like SD Gallade, Metagross, DD Gyara, DD Tyranitar etc.

Also while I love A-Eggy it's a bit too weak and has let me down a few times :(. I suggest to use a TR setter that can pretty much guarantee you to set up in case Reuniclus is weak against the leader you are facing.
Suggestions: Porygon 2 is probably one of the best TR setters since it has so much bulk that it will probably live any attack and set up TR. Its normal typing makes it immune to ghost that Reuni is weak and Reuni can take on fighting attacks that threat P2! The downside is that it has to hold the Eviolite making it suspectable to Taunt without the Mental Herb.
Another pokemon that pretty much guarantees to set up TR is Mimikyu thanks to Disguise! You might think that Mimikyu is a bit too fast to abuse the TR and you are not wrong. But thanks to Shadow Sneak it doesn't care that much for being slower in TR and also its 96 speed lets it get outsped from what we consider "fast" these days! You can slap it a Mental Herb for 100% TR set up, a Red Card to force a switch on you opponent to probably something better for you or can even let it hold an Iron Ball so it can halve its speed. The good thing with Mimikyu is that it can also be used without TR just as fine!
Another solid setter is Aromatisse that has already good bulk to live most hits, immune to Taunt thanks to Aroma Veil and can support the team with a plethora of moves like Wish, Heal Pulse, Helping Hand and Dual Screens.

Last but not least, while I like Haze on Mantine it makes it very passive in singles against certain monotypes, most notably those that resist water. Try out Toxic to wear down opponents that Mantine noramlly wouldn't beat, like Gastrodon, Jellicent, Cradily and see what fits you better :]

One thing I notice is that your team has two Pokemon weak to Fairy, one Fairy resist, and no moves that hit Fairy for super-effective damage.

 

Just something to keep in mind.

With a 1st glance, outside of P2's Thunderbolt the whole team is walled by Mantine!
I'd say that 3 TR setters is too much and you usualy need a fast/semi-fast pokemon that can work outside of TR whenever you can't set it or your setters are fainted.
I'd say try to replace Slowbro with a set up sweeper like DD Gyara, DD Gator or Crawdaunt (either SD or DD). I chose these 3 cause they still give you the water typing for defensive and offensive purposes and they can sweep teams outside of TR with 1 set up! Crawdaunt can even work in TR if you want

i tried it at OU, and believe me,  the tier is so bulky that without 3 setters it is very unsafe.  in reborn online with amplified rock,  i can work with 2 setters  smoothly
then again, without something to hit outside trick room it is unsafe too ...

Well, the most immediate problem is that you have no Hail setter whatsoever, and Aurora Veil requires Hail to be up before you can use it. Changing A-Ninetales' ability to Snow Warning would fix that problem.

I am aware that this is a dark type mono, and that this is a league thing, I am simply doing this for fun, but I would like to win at some point.

Team looks great but I find the Dark Pulse on Ninetales an unnecessary coverage.
You can choose either a suport move like Confuse Ray or Disable, either a move for longevity like Pain Split or Protect, or either another attacking move like single target fire STAB or Foul Play for strong physical attacker (last also keeps the dark coverage if you realy want it)

Looks fine, personally but WoW and Volt Switch on Rotom Wash instead of Dank Pulse and Shadow Ball, to stop physical sweepers and gain momentum as well. Also HP Fire hits Scizor better but you have Typhlosion and Rotom Wash to bulk that so keep HP Rock

I'm not entirely sure what Komala's role on the team is. With a base HP, defense, and speed stat of 65, it seems subpar as a wall, setup sweeper, or cleric.

 

Consider putting something that can deal with flying-types. Two members of the team are weak to it, and you have no moves that are supereffective against it at all. It's a relatively common type, so you should have a counter to it.

Flying type? Oh jeez..ill try.

 

as for komala, consider this. It is COMPLETELY immune to status, and can tank special hits relatively well, Not to mention has access to wish and protect, making it easy focus fodder for triples. With this in mind, iit only seemed like a decent choice for some strategies like the discharge+motor drive strat.

For flying, i guess i could use ampharos? Also gets heal bell, cotton spore, cotton guard, and has a good mega. Ill replace altaria with it.

May as well change gallades drain punch to close combat while im at it.

I posted an earlier incarnation of this team back a while, but now that the first couple brackets are revealed and people have fought them, how do people think this team will do against them?
