Dude, you're running 4 lines? and it's not in 4 corners fashion? Psychic FTW...

Drop the Muk, unless your area runs hella-grass...

If I'm correct, you're running the HP Arbok? That's good, but with you only running DRE's and Scrambles for [R] energy, if you get stuck with Arbok, you're screwed...

I like the Weezing, and the Toxicroak for support. IMO, drop the Arbok, the Muk, and the Shuckle....

Pick up 3-2-3 Nidoking. The Drag Off/Poison is siq, especially with the two Pokemon you have supporting him...

And a 1-0-1 Blasty.... Weakness is nasty...

Put the remaining slots into Trainers...

Just my opinion....
 
The Arbok is the one coming up in DP4. I'll post the spoiler (from PokeBeach):

Arbok L.31 – Psychic – HP80
Stage 1 – Evolves from Ekans

[P] Poison Reaction: 10 damage. If the Defending Pokemon is Poisoned, this attack does an additional 40 damage. If the Defending Pokemon isn’t Poisoned, the Defending Pokemon is now Poisoned.
[C][C][C] Wrap: 50 damage. Flip a coin, if heads the Defending Pokemon is now Paralyzed.

Weakness: Psychic (+20)
Resistance: none
Retreat: 2

I'd say it's pretty good.
Muk's Body works for Rainbow. Also, its attack stops retreating, and with Toxicroak, they just can't get rid of Poisoned.
Shuckle is a beast against Special Energy decks. It also cancels Bodies.
