Since I can't join you there, I'll give you my two cents of your team.
Ninjask and scizor will at best help you wipe out beginners. However, any one with a hazer will stop your plan cold as they are typically BPers. You should probably replace one of them with a miltank or blissy that knows HealBell/Aeromatherapy.
Starmie is a good choice for special sweeping.
Steelix is 50/50 since it is a great physical wall, but gets owned by 90% of special attacks.
Your SubDanceTar is probably your best bet. Just watch out for claydols and flygons since they are both ground types and have levitate.
Metagross...eh, can't really go wrong with a physical sweeping metagross.

I am having a hard time thinking on how to tune up the team because of all the ubers that are going to be used. Lugia, ho oh, groundon, kyrogre, and mewtwo >_< ubers are making this kinda hard

I'm surprised the tournament is allowing ubers. Most ones I've seen allow non uber legendaries at most.
That reminds me, which one of your pokemon knows haze?

Well, then trade starmie for mewtwo. It's the only way you can compete against the others....
Oh, and trade out ttar for gyarados, who is a better DDer IMO. Dragon Dance/Taunt/Earthquake/Physical Attack would be a good moveset... HP Flying is best but I know breding the right HP is difficult....

After much thought from Bigbboy, Demonic, and myself last night, I think we made a interesting tune up job on the team
RAZEK'S TEAM Tyranitar Metagross Swampert Starmie Zaptos Wobbuffet
This team is still in the makings and can be altered easily.
just wondering? would a shell bell work with wobbuffet?

uh, no. Go with LUM BERRY. And I HIGHLY suggest you use a lot of luck-based items like scope lens and quick claw and king's rock, Razek, since you're so lucky.

Pretty sure, and even if it doesn't lum berry is better since Status > Wobuffet.

Razek, why not just try it? Do it in a random encounter...

You're going to have to give us movesets and natures as well as the pokemon and the items. The guys who win these tournaments will catch a legendary several times over until they get the right nature and the DVs they think are best. (Keep in mind they probably shark there games and get numerous master balls, but still, the winners of these tournaments make sure they have everything right.) Here are some sites to help you out. The first one is for standard movesets and the second one is creative/imaginiative movesets. www.psypokes.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=891www.psypokes.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=65

This what I have so far
Starmie @ kings rock nature- modest ice beam thunderbolt surf recover
metagross @ quick claw nature- serious meteor mash psychic ice punch psych up
Swampert @scope lense nature- hardy surf ice beam earthquake rock slide
wobbuffet @lum berry/shell bell nature- sassy counter mirror coat safe guard destiny bond
I still need to breed a tyranitar knowing dragon dance plus I need to get a zaptos with a better nature than relaxed
but when I do get them
Tyranitar @leftovers dragon dance substitute rock slide earthquake
Zaptos @ petaya berry/ shell bell Thunderbolt thunderwave aerial ace roar

I'd make metagross either a solid physical or special sweeper. That way you can train it so all its EVs are either one or the other.

well, what I am trying to do with metagross is that if the opponent trys to boost his stats, I will copy them. If they are physical, I use meteor mash, is it is special, I use psychic or ice punch. It is a usable combo.

Wow, you guys have some serious strategy...if I was entering I probably wouldn't have even thought about strategy...I probably would've just dumped moves on my Pokemon...I'm stupid that way...
