Honestly, If I were to continue I feel like my almost my whole team needs changes in various places. The main one being I don't really think a stealth rock/rapid spin donphan fits too well with this particular team. The others being Zapdos and Scizor for various reasons.

I had a little study session in the OU chat room, and ended up with this.

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

I've played two battles with it, and it has two weaknesses, though really it's probably just one, since otherwise Ferrothorn would've tanked those Thunders. Swift Swim. Damn you Swift Swim!

Oh, by the way, the other battle was with a sun team. Jirachi took a Flamethrower from slowpoke in the sun, and survived. Did I mention it was a critical hit? Yeah, ~30% health left.

Kinda odd, but I rematched icbm and elf and won instead of lost those times. Doesn't count for the tournament but ehhh. Might not need to swap things around as much as I thought. Given the chance to change though, I'd probably swap donphan's rapid spin with stone edge or head smash, or something else. Donphan's typical life expectancy in my team is essentially this. Turn 1: Stealth Rock. Get hit for 99% health due to sturdy. Turn 2: Use one attacking move if by some miracle someone either didn't outspeed it or used a setup/defensive move. Faint. Ice shard helps, but only so much.

As per usual now, I have to do chores before I can get on the computer. Sad face. It'll be a couple hours, since one of them is not about getting something done, but about taking a certain amount of time to do it. And I procrastinate. (Hour and a half of weeding, yay!)

It's 9:00 AM for me right now, expect me on around 2:00 or 3:00

I apologize, but just to confirm, who is participating in the round robin?  Is it simply the list in the OP plus Akroma, Kansa, and myself?

It does increase my reliance on Quiver Dance, though, since I put no EVs into Special Attack.  I rather wish I had kept Giga Drain; I went with more reliable recovery moves, but it left my entire team vulnerable to Gastrodon.  Still, I was surprised when it barely survived your Explosion.  That was a fun round. ^_^
