SV OU Need help with my choice band iron boulder team

Pokepast:https://pokepast.es/b95bca2d1f6d7791
Iron Boulder:
I wanted to build around this pokemon because i thought with it´s high speed stat and high attack which is further boosted by its choice band it must be good. With its moves i went with Mighty Cleave and Zen Headbutt for Stab options and chose Close Combat and Iron Head as coverarge.

Alomomola:
I needed a pivot to bring Iron Boulder in. I wanted Alomomola as a pivot because it can threaten Kingambit with Scald. It also can Heal it´s teameats with wish.

Iron Treads:
I needed Stealth rock because Iron Boulder needed those. Iron Treads can also remove Hazards. The reason i went with leftovers is because i wanted that Longevity.
I went with Earthquake as a strong stab move and Ice Spinner to deal with Pokemon like Gliscor and Landours-T.

Zamazenta:
It is a great phisyical wall with Iron defence and also can stop Setup-Swepper with roar. Zamazenta can remove Weavile and Darkrai which Iron Boulder is weak to.

Moltres:
Moltres is pretty tanky. I ran a specilly defence Moltres set becuase zamatenta, Alomomola and Iron Treads are rather tanky on the physically defensive.

Ogerpon-W
I noticed that my Team is really weak to Dragapult so i ran Ogerpon with Knock Off. So if Dragpult switches in Ogerpon-W can Terastallize and gain a Sp. Def boost. With that Sp. Def boost it can survie a Choice Specs Dragco Meteor and have a 81.3% chance to OHKO it.
 
Hey really cool team!

there is a few changes I’d like to suggest.

1. I think the first change is make is :great tusk: just better and more consistent overall as removal and does better into other things that set rocks such as :landorus therian:. Since you already have knock ogerpon you can run rocks on this :great tusk:

Great Tusk @ Heavy Duty Boots
Ability: Protosynthesis
EVs: 252 Atk / 4 SpD / 252 Spe
Tera Type: Steel
Jolly Nature
- Headlong Rush
- Ice Spinner
- Rapid Spin
- Stealth Rock

2. I would just change this :ogerpon wellspring: to pivot it’s better with knock.

Ogerpon-Wellspring @ Wellspring Mask
Ability: Water Absorb
EVs: 252 Atk / 4 SpD / 252 Spe
Tera Type: Water
Jolly Nature
- Ivy Cudgel
- Horn Leech
- U-turn
- Knock Off

3. I think :alomomola: can be something a bit bit more threatening and less passive it also helps you into kyurem. :slowking galar: a slow pivot to get in :iron boulder: safely since it’s a frail mon. It also provides future sight support to enhance breaking capabilities.

4. Change moltres to tera fairy this helps vs things like Choice band :dragapult:.

Moltres @ Heavy-Duty Boots
Ability: Flame Body
EVs: 248 HP / 248 Def / 12 Spe
Tera Type: Fairy
Bold Nature
- Flamethrower
- Will-O-Wisp
- Roar
- Roost

I think roar is good here to help vs annoying stuff like subtect :kyurem:.
