Rate my Super Singles Battle Maison Team pls!!!
All I ask for is:
How far you think this team can arrive (Number of Streak)
Advice for Moveset, Evs etc. (I don't want advice on what pokemon I should use instead of those)
Everyone can feel free to express their opinions without being rude :)

Leader-Persian@Technician@Jolly@Life Orb
-Fake Out
-Return
-Bite / Knock Off (Help me here)
-U-Turn / Aerial Ace / Iron Tail / Taunt (And here)
Evs: 252 Atk, 252 Spd, 4 HP

Strategy: I chose Persian not only because he's my favourite pokemon but also because he can be used as an amazing leader for every team. Technician power ups Fake Out, Bite and Aerial Ace, Jolly nature makes him outspeed almost every Battle Maison pokemon and Life Orb lets him hit really hard. Fake Out arrives at an amazing 100 power with sure flinch, Return is the main amazing attack that deals even more damage than two Fake Outs, Bite arrives at 90 power and a good flinch chanse while Knock Off throws away the Al's annoying item and deals even more damage. Both of them deal with ghost types. U-Turn to return and send out Dustox or Alakazam so they can take a fighting type attack that would OHKO Persian because of resistance and weakness. Aerial Ace deals with fighting types, Iron Tail hits Rock Types hard and Taunt prevens the Al from sweeping and maybe some Battle Maison pokemon from even attacking at all. The Evs are obvious choises.

Wall-Dustox@Shield Dust@Calm@Black Sludge
-Iron Defence
-Toxic
-Infestation
-Roost / Moonlight (Help)
Evs: 252 HP, 252 SPDEF, 4 DEF

Strategy: Most people think Dustox is garbadge...Wake up and smell the coffee! They think of that because they just look at stats in order to judge a pokemon. I tried it out many times and it's actually doing great! So here's the thing. Shield Dust allows Dustox not to be burned, paralyzed, frozen, confused by moves such as Flamethrower, Ice Beam, Thunderbolt and Signal Beam. Calm nature to max SpDef, Black Sludge to slowly recover. Iron Defence makes Dustox THE wall by rosing its Defence. Toxic along with Infestation deal high damage per turn while Roost or Moonlight recover health. The Evs are for for a complete Special Wall.

Special Attacker-(Mega) Alakazam@Magic Guard-Trace@Timid@Alakazyte
-Psychic
-Shadow Ball
-Energy Ball
-Focus Blast
Evs: 252 SPATK, 252 SPD, 4 HP

Strategy: Psychic is the main attack with great power and acurassy, Shadow Ball hits Ghost types, Energy Ball rock types and Focus Blast the fear fo this team, Steel types. Timid nature lets Mega Alakazam outspeed everything in the Maison. This pokemon also covers the Mega Evolution Role.

What do you think?
 
RE: Rate my Super Singles Battle Maison Team!

Hey:) before I attempt to help, I'd like to ask about your Pokémon. You want to keep these the same? No exceptions?

It'll give me a better idea on what you really want when I go in depth on everything.

I didn't want to go off track, so I prefer to make sure I do what you ask with no problems. :)

Yeah, I'd like to keep them the same, but you can advise me on the moves, evs, etc.
Thanks a lot! :)
 
RE: Rate my Super Singles Battle Maison Team!

Awesome! Sorry for the late reply. First off I wouldn't worry about getting fancy with EVs (this is only Battle Maison) so, 252 spreads are easy and solid. With your team, nothing really stands out too much as a weakness. It looks solid, and I'd expect decent success.

Persian:
Fake out
Return
Knock off (with LO causing extra damage and the ability to knock off pesky BM items)
U-Turn (Having the option to easily switch into a better match up while adding damage)

Dustox:
Toxic
Infestation
Iron Defense
Roost (I've always preferred this)

M-Alakazam:
The move pool is about as solid as it can get unless you want Protect, the Timid Nature can be swapped for Modest because again, this is BM and you'll most likely out speed the majority with Modest plus the extra damage is great to have.

I hoped this helped! Please, if you need help on anything else or have questions, let me know.

Thank you very much!!! Your advice is really good and also I agree for both your Dustox and Persian suggestions! Still, I really think I should go with timid Alakazam since I tried a modest one a few days ago and it turned out to be ouutspeeded by Weaviles and OHKOed. Anyway thank you very much again! Any suggestions from anyone are still welcomed!
 
RE: Rate my Super Singles Battle Maison Team!

The only thing I can think to add is to swap Psychic for Psyshock in case you run into a powerful Special wall like Blissey to hit it for it's weak Defense; it's also a more reliable option than Focus Blast is against it, but if Persian isn't KOed then it really won't matter as you could switch it in anyways.

As above I'd also go with Roost on Dustox. If you're using Moonlight, the heal will get worse if the opponent is using a Poke with a weather changing ability like Sandstorm or Hail, which isn't uncommon to see.

He could drop Focus Blast all together (the accuracy is horrendous) and thinking about it 1 miss from it can lead to Alakazam being KOed instead of the opposite Pokémon. Psyshock like you said, would be the replacement move. If he runs into a Blissey, Toxic + Knock Off would pretty much end it, or vice versa.
 
RE: Rate my Super Singles Battle Maison Team!

Then of course, psyshock would be better. Thank you both so much! Also, whould you sugest any move enough accurate that can deal with steel types..?
 
RE: Rate my Super Singles Battle Maison Team!

You can't hit Steel types in any other way, unless you wanna run Hidden Power Fire. Personally, though, I would go with Focus Blast (hits Dark types as well) and its risks rather than the 60-power Hidden Power.
