One thing I enjoy to recomend is CB Aggron

With head Smash

Think. Aggron decent base 110 attack used to deliver a blow with 150 BP + STAB and no recoil attached, boosted by CB

Aparently it can even OHKO Gliscor

That's sound pretty damn good.

I was also thinking on maybe using Marrowak or Rampardos since they're slow but have great attack and acess to Rock Slide.

Then again, Conkeldurr and Gigalith are also slow with great Atk and Def...

thoughts?

I forgot to mention, I'm using the team for a tournament among a large group of friends, and one of the additional rules was No legendary Pokemon..

But Aggron has a 4x weakness to ground, so it's a OHKO if anything use earthquake. I remember that the senior world champion used a Machamp with wide guard against earthquake, but I don't know if it's really that usefull.
Also with Agrron 4x weakness to fighting Mach Punch will hurt a lot.

That's right, forgot that priority over takes TR.
With that in mind I was thinking of adding...

Ahnold the Conkeldurr
Item: Flame Orb
Ability: Guts
Nature: Brave
EVs: 126 Hp/252 Atk/ 126 Def/ 4 Sp.Def

Moves:
Drain Punch
Mach Punch
Bulk Up
Detect

not that knowledgeable about doubles, so are moves like bulk up too slow?

I've played with a trick room team that got me to about 1800+ on the ou ladder. My trick roomers were reuniclus, porygon 2, and slowbro. My two trick room abusers were breloom and marowak. I had a fast salamence who could finish things off or save me if my trick roomers died. If you want, I can go to my computer and copy their stats and moves here.

OP, make sure your team isn't so reliant on TR that if it goes away or you aren't able to get it up you won't be fucked over.

OP here, I would really appreciate that, thanks!

>>13432839
I had been thinking about that, I just wasn't sure who to add. As mentioned in another post, Salamance would be a good option.

How about Volcarona, it's a great Pokemon over all, though I'm sure there are more viable options, but if I can use my favorites without sacrificing viability, I would rather have Volcarona.

Yeah, doubles generally doesn't use boosting moves. Or if they do, it's dragon dance or SD on an already fast Pokemon. Flame Orb/Guts will probably be enough.

Do you think Rock Slide would be a good replacement for Bulk Up?

Why not a Swampert? I have an offensive Swampert in my team and he is an absolute beast.

Swampert
Item: Life Orb
Ability: Torrent
Nature: Brave
EV: 252 Atk / 152 HP / 52 Def / 52 SDef

Moves:
Waterfall
Ice Punch
Hammer Arm
Earthquake

A lot of coverage and it only gets faster when you use Hammer Arm under TR.

I hope Gen VI introduces an item that prolongs TR.

What's the main purpose of taunt in doubles? To prevent the use of moves like quick and wide guard?

Yeah, spread moves are generally pretty good.

Also >>13433741 and >>13433773 both have good suggestions. Taunt stops Thunder Wave, opposing Trick Room, but most importantly stops your trick roomer from getting taunted itself. Sableye also gets TR I believe, you should probably be running at least two to make sure you can get it up.
