Well... Just any advices or criticism, tell me what do You thing.

Malamar:
Ability: Contrary,

Item: Leftovers
Nature: Adamant
EV: 252 HP, 252 Atk, 4 Spe
-Superpower,
-Knock Off
-Psycho Cut
-Rock Slide.

Sweeper. If it gets to +2, it usually kills 3 -4 pokes on it's own.

Rotom-Fan:
Ability: Levitate (he really hates ground types, double immune)
Item: Leftovers
Nature: Modest
EV: 252 SpA, 252 Spe, 4 HP
-Air Slash

-Dark Pulse

-Volt Switch

-Will-o-wisp

It is really, really strong with good coverage.

Golurk:
Ability: No Guard
Item: Life orb
Nature: Adamant
EV: 252 HP, 252 Atk, 4 Def

-Shadow Punch

-Dynamic Punch
-Earthquake

-Thunderpunch

No body expect Dynamic Punch, it usually kills in 1 hit with it or EQ. What is funny, I usually don't use other moves...

Typhlosion:
Ability: Blaze
Item: Life orb
Nature: Timid
EV: 252 SpA, 252 Spe, 4 HP

-Eruption
-Lava Plume
-Toxic
-Focus Blast

Burns everything, outspeeds almost everything.

Electivire:
Ability; Vital Spirit
Item: Life orb
Nature: Jolly
EV: 252 Atk, 252 Spe, 4 HP

-Earthquake

-Ice Punch

-Thunderpunch

-Brick Break

It hurts. A lot.

Crustle:

Ability:Sturdy
Item: Leftovers
Nature: Adamant
EV: 252 HP, 252 Atk, 4 SpD

-X scissor
-Earthquake
-Night Slash
-Rock slide

Worse in whole team, I think of replacing it.


PS - No idea how to put images here :c

get rid of toxic and lava plume on typhlosion. use a choice scarf or choice specs on him, preferably scarf. your team lacks revenge killers, and typhlosion is one of the best in NU. spam eruption all day.

on a side note, all your evs are 252/252/4. that's not necessary all the time.

For the malamar, I personally recommend a specially invested rest talker. With this spread it will be able to tank all kinds of hits and get its health back with rest.

The rotom fan looks more like it should a defesnive vatiant since you're running will o wisp and not scarf. This set could work for you.

Rotom-Fan @ Leftovers

Ability: Levitate
EVs: 248 HP / 248 Def / 8 SpA
Bold Nature
- Will-O-Wisp
- Thunderbolt
- Air Slash
- Pain Split
As for the golurk it is your decision what you do with that, though the dynamic punch will be expected, it's like the only reason to run golurk in the first place. Choice band might be good but it's your choice.
As Aero said give the typhlosion a choice scarf, also replace what he suggested with extrasensory and hidden power grass.
The crustle would be good for stealth rocks, entry hazards are always nice to have.

ok well first off you have no rocks. i suggest changing crustle to a suicide lead set that looks like this:

Crustle @ Red Card
Ability: Sturdy
EVs: 4 HP / 252 Atk / 252 Spe
Jolly Nature
- Stealth Rock
- Spikes
- Rock Blast
- Knock Off

this allows you to get up at least rocks and a spike before you die (usually).

i second bagel's noms for resttalk malamar and defensive rotom-fan (although you may want to remember to max out your defense evs bagel ;]).

scarf typh is what this team needs and allows you to revenge kill basically anything outside of swift swimmers.

consider changing your golurk to a banded set that could look a bit like this:

Golurk @ Choice Band
Ability: No Guard
EVs: 108 HP / 252 Atk / 148 Spe
Adamant Nature
- Earthquake
- Shadow Punch
- Ice Punch
- Thunder Punch

speed evs allow you to outspeed -speed seismitoad and 0 speed mantine and pelipper which look to pose a few problems for your team. bulk allows you to still survive a few hits while you continue to bop things.

also consider changing e-vire to a mixed set since a purely physical set completely defeats the purpose of using e-vire.

overall a pretty shaky offense team but if you play it well it can work. 5/10.

not sure about the rest of your team, but Crustle needs to be running Shell Smash. Period.

crustle is a bad smasher lol.
