I've seen a few topics asking what people thought of someone's team and I wanted to see how mine is. and of coarse I'm going to show my gym team.
Tyranitar
Ability: Sandstream
Item: Soft sand
moves: Earthquake, darkpulse, ice punch, stone edge
Torterra
Ability: overgrow
Item: Rose incense
Moves: Synthesis, energy ball, crunch, outrage
Gliscore
Ability: Hyperclaw
Item: lax incense
Moves: Sludge bomb, Dig, Swords dance, night slash
Mamoswine
ability: Snow cloak
Item: Nevermelt ice
moves: earthquake, blizzard, ancient power, take down
Swampert
Ability: Torrent
Item: Mystic water
moves: Earthquake, blizzard, surf, steathrock
Rampardos
ability: mold breaker
item: leftovers
moves: headsmash, zen headbutt, ice beam, endeavor
Aggron
Ability: rock head
Item: Hard stone
moves: Headsmash, iron head, protect, take down
(I know that's seven pokemon but I haven't seen either of the guild leaders actually online so I could ask them about switching Rampardos for Aggron.)
Any suggestions? Tips?

ii-Sir Awesome-ii Tyranitar Ability: Sandstream Item: Soft sand lum/choice band/choice scarfmoves: Earthquake, darkpulse, ice punch, stone edge T-tar is touchy. There is a lot you can do with him, and it it is completely up to you when it comes to what set he should run. Right now, you have him as a lead; I suggest lead t-tar look like this:
Item: lum berry
~Payback
~Stone edge
~Earthquake
~stealth rock
Now, you could also have him as a viable attacker later in the game. Choice band/scarf t-tars are most common.
Item:choice band
~Stone edge
~earthquake/crunch
~Aqua tail
~Pursuit
orrrrr
item: Choice scarf
~ Stone Edge
~ Superpower/crunch
~ Pursuit
~ Earthquake
Scarf is more common in the current meta, and is favorable in this case because a lot of your pokemon are pretty slow. Torterra Ability: overgrow Item: Rose incense leftoversMoves: Synthesis, energy ball, crunch, outrageHonestly, non-stab outrage is a waste.
I like this set:
~ Wood Hammer
~ Earthquake / Stone Edge
~ Leech Seed
~ Protect Gliscor Ability: Hyperclaw Item: lax incense leftoversMoves: Sludge bomb, Dig, Swords dance, night slashSuch a great pokemon. Gliscor is such a terror to battle against especially if you run stall.
Every team needs a stall breaker: Gliscor is yours.
~ Earthquake
~ Taunt
~ Roost
~ Toxic / U-turn (I honestly like u-turn here)
If you really want to keep SD, his set should be:
~ Swords Dance
~ Earthquake
~ Roost
~ Stone Edge
But the first set is highly preferredMamoswine ability: Snow cloak There is no snow, so run Oblivious Item: Nevermelt ice Choice bandmoves: earthquake, blizzard, ancient power, take down~ Earthquake
~ Ice Shard
~ Stone Edge
~ Superpower Swampert Ability: Torrent Item: Mystic water leftoversmoves: Earthquake, blizzard, surf, steathrock I love this guy and personally run him as a lead
If you want to do the same, this is what I run:
~Earthquake
~Ice beam
~protect
~Stealthrock
Be weary of roserade and anything else carrying grassknot. For this team, I really suggest T-tar for your lead because otherwise, roserade would give you MAJOR problems.
The set I would run for this team, however, would be similar to the lead, if not identical:
~Earthquake
~Ice beam/Avalanche
~protect
~Stealthrock/Waterfall/surf
This set has the option to be physical or mixed. I like mixed, because most of your team, if not all, is physically based.
Rampardos ability: mold breaker item: leftovers He honestly isn't strong enough for leftovers; use focus sashmoves: headsmash, zen headbutt, ice beam, endeavor~ Rock Polish
~ Stone Edge
~ Earthquake
~ Zen HeadbuttAggron Ability: rock head Item: Hard stone Choice band/life orbmoves: Headsmash, iron head, protect, take down~ Head Smash
~ Aqua Tail
~ Low Kick
~ Ice Punch/ Rock polish (Life orb only)Alright, with this being a gym team, it makes things difficult, but I will try my best! First of all: I'll be changing most of your items. To be frank; the type boosting items do not give a big enough boost and are just a waste. And again, you don't have EVs. And this is a competitive team... Maybe you should consider?

This team is really well rounded. And I don't find many flaws in it, other than the Digging Gliscor. (is it even a ground type? xD)
It's a really good overall team. &&... does Aggron learn Last Resort, or some move like that? That would be thousands better than take down.

Which is resisted/can't hit about a third of todays meta. Also, aggron has rock head, so he wouldn't even receive recoil from take down, but it still doesn't belong in the set =]

I know that because I ICed Beamed him when we battle Brian. Double actually... The same atribute that makes him the perfect partner for any of my earthquakers (being part flying) also makes him one of my worst at taking super effective hits. Same with torterra.
