Please refer to this post before making any threads related to getting your team/strategy looked at.
I've seen this strategy used a lot. Here is a link to an article of someone using this team at a Premier Championship
You can't just throw 6 Pokemon that have abilities that take advantage of electric attacks because that's not how team gimmicks work in VGC. You need Pokemon that are immune to Ground attacks and Electric Attacks, you need Pokemon that can even run a strategy such as Weakness Policy then sweep, you need more support mons to prevent cases where you either get outsped, taunted or the opponent is just too bulky and is mowing through your strategy.
Try to make it so that you have other options outside the strategy but don't make these options stray too far; meaning don't do something like bring a Hail team as a plan B although weather such as Rain work great with Electric types like Heliolisk and Lanturn
