Got the idea to build a team with Sub Seed Whimsicott to troll some ladder players and it worked out better than expected.
Being called "stall noob" by low ladder players after clicking Protect for the 20th time is one of the best things on Pokemon Showdown.
So i decided to share the Team for others to enjoy.

:ss/whimsicott:
Whimsicott is a beast that punishes a lot of fat teams and 6:0 them super easy.
A lot of counter don't even have acess to healing moves which makes it easy to chip them down if needed.
Sub Seed makes a good combination to chip down countless enemys.
Moonblast hits Dark & Grass types, Xatu and Goodra which are not effected by Seed.
Growth is important to not get PP stalled.
The given sp atk allows Whimsicott to 2HKO Xatu and OHKO Bewear at +1.
The hp gives it a higher Leftovers recovery but is kept as low as possible to heal as much % by seed as possible and lose as less as possible by Sub.
Also allows it to tank +2 Edge from LO Viri after Rocks.
The speed is invested for Toxicroak and Kingdra.
Sp def lowers the damage from Hyper Voice Heliolisk which bypasses Sub.

:ss/steelix:
Steelix checks the sound attack users Heliolisk, Vikavolt and Exploud for Whimsicott and supports it with Toxic so that Whimsi can kill mons by using Sub.
Tect gives it a good recovery for long games and scouts Choiced mons.
Rocks are ... well you know.
EQ is used as attacking move since it can pressure Drapion and Toxicroak.
Hp is for highest Leftovers regen since it will barely ever be max health havig 2 more possible hp is useless.
Speed is for other Steelix players that don't use speed for whatever reason.
Sp def makes it take some hits from Heliolisk, Gardevoir, Exploud, Vikavolt and allows it to toxic bulky water types.
Nature for total points we don't want to waste it on a stat with garbage base.
Def just for the jump point.

:ss/drapion:
Drapion walls bulky grass types for Whimsicott like Dhelmise, Decidueye, Tangela and Whimsicott.
It also is this teams Poltergeist switch in.
Dhelmise and Decidueye can't hit it hard and CB Golurk can always be scoutet so that it can only hit Drapion with Poltergeist.
Also beating Indeedee and Espeon which Whimsi can't Seed helps a lot.
It's also helping Steelix by pressuring Xatu and Bronzong.
Picking up T-Spikes is also important in the current meta.
Knock can get rid of Leftovers and Boots which makes the opponent chipable.
But be carefull not to Knock choice Items with 4x Tect and 1x Sub they are making it's holder useless.
PJab hits Fightings, Darks and Fairys Knock does not hit well and can poison and we all love poison when we can spam Protect :3.
SD can suprisingly sweep a lot of Teams.
Most bulky mons can't deal enough damage and most offensive mons can't retaliate well and get OHKOd in return.
Protect again scouting, Black Sludge regen and poison damage.

:ss/vaporeon:
Vaporeon can keep the Team alive with Wish and Heal Bell and walls offensive water and fire Types.
It's more or less just the standard set with more sp def to wall Salazzle more consistently.

:ss/charizard:
Charizard is the defog user of the Team.
It can take some fighting moves and is not hit by Golurks EQ.
Thrower + Toxic is good for pressuring over time and Toxic supports the Team a lot which you may have noticed already.
Charizard can take a LO Gunk Shot from Toxicroak and start the Sucker-Roost mind games.
It also takes 2 Moonblasts from Specs Gardevoir which makes it unable to break.
Speed allows it to outspeed Toxicroak.
Yeah i know no full Tect/Sub Team lame and so but couldn't fit it on this slot I'm sry guys.

:ss/gardevoir:
Gardevoir is the speed control of this team as well as another fighting switch in.
With acess to the move Trick Gardevoir can make an opponents mon totally useless against Protect Spam.
Trick can also protect yourself from opposing Trick user since you can pass there choiced Items to the next mon.
Protect ... you know.
Hp allows Garde to live an ada CB Double Edge from a Bewear after rocks which is important since you always have to scout the Item of Bewear first to not lose to SD.

Threats:
:bw/toxicroak: :bw/vileplume: :bw/drapion: :bw/virizion: :bw/golurk: :bw/braviary:
SD toxicroak/Virizion/Drapion, no CB Golurk and HDB Braviary can pressure the Team a lot and you have to play rly carefull around them.
Vileplume is hard to kill with this Team and it always puts one of your mons asleep which makes it annoying.
