And really sorry for triple posting, but I won against JabbaTheGriffin^^ And with this, the finals are finished! GG to both the other finalists.
Here are the teams I used, for posterity:
Hitmontop (M) @ Leftovers
Trait: Technician
EVs: 252 HP / 252 Atk / 4 Def
Brave Nature (+Atk, -Spd)
- Mach Punch
- Sucker Punch
- Close Combat
- Bullet Punch
Jellicent (M) @ Mental Herb
Trait: Water Absorb
EVs: 184 HP / 72 Def / 252 SAtk
Quiet Nature (+SAtk, -Spd)
- Trick Room
- Blizzard
- Hydro Pump
- Shadow Ball
Abomasnow (M) @ Sitrus Berry
Trait: Snow Warning
EVs: 4 HP / 252 Atk / 252 SAtk
Quiet Nature (+SAtk, -Spd)
- Focus Blast
- Blizzard
- Wood Hammer
- Protect
Empoleon (M) @ Life Orb
Trait: Torrent
EVs: 252 HP / 4 Def / 252 SAtk
Quiet Nature (+SAtk, -Spd)
- Blizzard
- Hydro Pump
- Grass Knot
- Protect
Kyurem @ Life Orb
Trait: Pressure
EVs: 208 HP / 24 Def / 252 SAtk / 24 SDef
Quiet Nature (+SAtk, -Spd)
- Blizzard
- Dragon Pulse

Reuniclus (M) @ Life Orb
Trait: Magic Guard
EVs: 184 HP / 72 Def / 252 SAtk
Quiet Nature (+SAtk, -Spd)

- Focus Blast
- Shadow Ball
This is the team I used to get up to the finals. It never failed me in any battle, although I had to change it once the round robin was to replay. The concept of the team is actually simple. Setup hail with Abomasnow, use Trick Room and then start sweeping with the power of mighty Blizzards. Hitmontop is just here because it's Hitmontop - if you run a doubles team and you don't use Hitmontop, you must have a pretty damn good reason.
Then, here is the team I played in the second turn of the round robin. It is similar to the team above in that it abuses Trick Room and includes good ol' Technitop, but there are some notable differences:
Snorlax (M) @ Life Orb
Trait: Thick Fat
EVs: 4 HP / 252 Atk / 252 Def
Brave Nature (+Atk, -Spd)
- Frustration
- Fire Punch
- Superpower
- Crunch
Marowak (M) @ Thick Club
Trait: Lightningrod
EVs: 252 HP / 252 Atk / 4 SDef
Brave Nature (+Atk, -Spd)
- Rock Slide
- Bonemerang
- Frustration
- Protect
Jellicent (M) @ Sitrus Berry
Trait: Water Absorb
EVs: 184 HP / 72 Def / 252 SAtk
Quiet Nature (+SAtk, -Spd)
- Hydro Pump
- Ice Beam
- Shadow Ball
- Trick Room
Hitmontop (M) @ Leftovers
Trait: Technician
EVs: 252 HP / 252 Atk / 4 Def
Brave Nature (+Atk, -Spd)
- Close Combat

good shit zarator
Don't ban hail, ban Kyurem. Without that hail wouldn't have been spammed nearly as much.
Also, congrats zarator!
