ADV OU Advice Needed

[Fishaman P]

Okay, gonna need some help. This is on an actual cart, for ADV OU.

Here's what I have:

SnorlaXBOX (Snorlax) @ Leftovers

Ability: Thick Fat

Nature: Adamant

IVs: 31/31/31/10/31/30

EVs: 118/68/136/0/176/20

- Curse

- Body Slam

- Earthquake

- Rest

SnorlaXBOX really rocks in the Battle Tower, even making a surprisingly good lead. In fact, he got me 105 straight wins (and counting!). He switches in on special hits, sponges them, and proceeds to set up.

Purty (Swampert) @ Leftovers

Ability: Torrent

Nature: Relaxed

IVs: 31/31/30/31/31/30

EVs: 250/0/220/40/0/0

- Earthquake

- Ice Beam

- Toxic

- Protect

Purty is my defensive pivot. He sponges physical attacks and threatens their users. I also use him to (A) kill bulky opponents with Toxic, or (B) Get opponents to Rest so SnorlaXBOX can come in and set up.

Shifu (Alakazam) @ Lum Berry

Ability: Synchronize

Nature: Timid

IVs: 31/14/31/31/31/31

EVs: 6/0/0/252/0/252

- Calm Mind

- Psychic

- Fire Punch

- Thunderpunch

Shifu is either my lead or my secret weapon. I set up with Calm Mind if I think the opponent is going to status me, or I simply 1HKO them. Great at stopping Crobats in the frontier, and surprisingly good at putting pressure on the opponent.

Now, I'm also planning on using these three.

Picasso (Smeargle) @ Salac Berry

Ability: Own Tempo

Nature: Jolly/Timid

IVs: 31/x/31/x/31/31

EVs: 96/0/120/0/40/252

- Spore

- Substitute

- Belly Drum

- Baton Pass

Picasso will pass Belly Drums to Medicham, but I'm kinda confused on how to use him. Smogon says to "send out Smeargle against a slow threat and use Substitute". But wouldn't they just break my Substitute as soon as I put it up? Wouldn't Spore be better the first turn? Or am I supposed to use Substitute when I predict a switch?

JackieCham (Medicham) @ ? (Scope Lens/Salac Berry/Focus Band)

Ability: Pure Power

Nature: Jolly

IVs: 31/31/31/x/31/31

EVs: 6/252/0/0/0/252

- Brick Break

- Rock Slide

- Shadow Ball

- Substitute

Picasso will pass Belly Drums to JackieCham. The attacking moves are for coverage, and Substitute over Focus Punch because (A) I have terrible prediction, and (B) for the emergencies where Picasso can't pass his sub, or even worse, anything at all.

Krayt (Tyranitar) @ ? (Leftovers/Starf Berry)

Ability: Sand Stream

Nature: Naughty

IVs: 31/31/31/31/31/31

EVs: 6/252/0/0/0/252

- Dragon Dance

- Rock Slide

- Earthquake

- Ice Beam

Krayt is basically the finisher. By the time he's out, nothing will be left to stop him.

Please rate! I was thinking of replacing Smeargle and Medicham with Salamence and Metagross, but I like the ability to 1HKO everything in OU.
