UU? Registeel is obviously a big contender. It can take a hit, paralyze you, and possibly take something out with Explosion. Most super-effective hits it can take, but I have no idea if it can take an Earthquake from Rhyperior.
Registeel rarely ever plays as a physical wall down here. The only decent physical walls in UU is Weezing and Uxie, but that's my opinion. Stall, from what i've noticed, is best used with hail and or sandstorm via Snover or Hippototas. Hail in UU with stallerein is just broken. Sandstorm with cacturne or sandlsash is also just as bad. Overall, Hail is the way to go if you want to sucessfully stall.
With Roserade gone, toxic spikes is just dead. Unless you want to pit your nidoqueen against the most likely uxie lead, then you will most likely not be using toxic spikes. But now, pokemon no longer have to fear opening status. But right now, I've got a bad feeling about Rhyperior. When Rhyperior went UU, i was honestly just building a team using rhydon, and that wrecked. With sandstorm, rhyperior has nearly nothing in the way of it in UU. Also, Alakazam could be risky. She replaces Roserade perfectly when it comes to offense. But Alakazam honestly won't go up to BL anytime soon. You've got so many honchkrows and absols running around, alakazam is sure to get revenge killed at minimum.
So for overall threats in UU, i'd have to say:
Rhyperior
Mismagmius NPMag and SubLOMag)
Absol (SD and Revenge CB)
Scyther (Wannabe-Scizor)
Umbreon (Cursbreon)
Blaziken (Mixed Priority Attacker)
Uxie (Lead and Support sets)
Moltres (LO, Lead, Special sweeper)
Hailstall (Snover/Walrein combo)
Sandstorm ( in general )
Rain Dance (Teams)
Here are some pokemon which i can see become uprising threats:
Honchkrow (NPKrow, MixKrow)
Alakazam (CM and Trick sets)
Gallade (SD)
Froslass (In Hail Lead Spiker)
Walrein (In Hail: Super Fang Stallrein)
I just did a small touchdown on UU so i'll probably make edits when it's not 11:26 PM
EDIT: I noticed we needed a banner as our current one is temporary. Not sure if someone else was making one but I just made one for us if we are okay with it:
