I'm not sure I'm much of a team builder, but just looking at what's popular right now: Hatterne, Farigiraf, Torkoal looks like the start of a trick room core.

Not sure how to round it out, but some pokemon that stand out to me are:
- Conkeldurr - slow and strong, with sheer force or guts for more damage
- Golurk good STAB coverage (Ground/Ghost)
- Girmsnarl as a potential opener with fake out to help make sure trick room is set up and screens for follow-up, if you don't want to swap out with parting shot.

Not sure if you need something bulkier to back that up or not.
