SM NU New to smogon please help with my building :)

So start off this is my NU team which i have tested a little but would like peoples opinions and help on how to improve the team and any changes that could be made.

1st mon
Vaporeon @ Leftovers
Ability: Water Absorb
EVs: 252 HP / 4 SpA / 252 SpD
Calm Nature
IVs: 0 Atk
- Toxic
- Scald
- Wish
- Protect

All balance needs a special wall so this is where Vaporeon comes in. Great hp and SpD, always liked this mon. Scald just because its the bests water move in the game, then toxic wish protect to try and stall.

2nd mon
Rhydon @ Eviolite
Ability: Lightning Rod
EVs: 252 HP / 4 Atk / 252 Def
Impish Nature
- Earthquake
- Stone Edge
- Stealth Rock
- Roar

Decided to run max def on my Rhydon which most likely isnt necessary but this guys takes hits all day long even from STAB close combats. Stealth rock is essential, then stone edge and earthquake for coverage. Roar has saved me quite a lot from set up mons like scrafty and such.

3rd mon
Scrafty @ Fightinium Z
Ability: Moxie
EVs: 252 Atk / 4 SpD / 252 Spe
Adamant Nature
- Dragon Dance
- Knock Off
- High Jump Kick
- Iron Head

Wanted a mon that could set up and sweep which this guy has done plenty of times for me. The Fightinium Z is for opposing defensive walls, could maybe switch high jump kick for drain punch but never really needed it, iron head and knock off for coverage. Scraftys great defenses allow him to take a hit while he sets up then proceed to sweep.

4th mon
Virizion @ Leftovers
Ability: Justified
EVs: 252 SpA / 4 SpD / 252 Spe
Timid Nature
IVs: 0 Atk
- Calm Mind
- Giga Drain
- Focus Blast
- Substitute

Always liked special Virizion and in this tier i think this mon is a little broken, great typing and can take a hit. Biggest problem i have found is the accuracy of focus blast.

5th mon
Delphox @ Choice Scarf
Ability: Blaze
EVs: 252 SpA / 4 SpD / 252 Spe
Timid Nature
IVs: 0 Atk
- Fire Blast
- Grass Knot
- Psychic
- Shadow Ball

This was originally scarf Necrozma before the ban as that mon was great, but now hes banned i needed a psychic type,and also having a fire type is good too. I also needed a scarfer so with Delphoxs good speed, SpA, and move set i thought it would be the perfect replacement.

6th mon
Dodrio @ Choice Band
Ability: Early Bird
EVs: 252 Atk / 4 SpD / 252 Spe
Jolly Nature
- Brave Bird
- Return
- Quick Attack
- Jump Kick

Last but certainly not least is my revenge killer CB Dodrio. This thing hits like a truck and also has priority with quick attack. Didn't think this needed to be scarfed as it already pretty much out speeds the entire tier.


Thanks guys, all feedback and suggestions are appreciated.
 
Replace Scrafty's Fightinium Z with:
1. Steelium Z to snag KOs on things that think they can switch in like Slurpuff, Whimsicott and Golbat after knocking off the eviolite
2. Darkinium Z for walls like Uxie, Xatu, Meloetta, Claydol, etc.

I just fell like it would suit your team idea better, not trying to be harsh :)
