Is there no item clause on Pokemon Showdown?

So I don't have Y yet (or a 3DS for that matter), so I've turned to using Pokemon Showdown until I can get mine. They have most of the new Pokemon up and running, including megas (though the sprites don't move like the others do).
Been messing around with a team in OU. Here it is, if you guys wanna see it, maybe give a few pointers or something. It's a bit heavy on the Dragon-type, but they're my favorites and I've been doing fairly well competitively:
1. Dragonite, with Muscle Band
Ability: Multiscale
EVs: 252 Spd / 252 Atk / 4 HP
Adamant Nature
- Dragon Dance
- Fire Punch
- Waterfall
- Outrage
2. Garchomp, with Muscle Band
Ability: Rough Skin
EVs: 252 Spd / 252 Atk / 4 HP
Jolly Nature
- Dragon Claw
- Outrage
- Dragon Rush
- Stone Edge
3. Hydreigon, with Wise Glasses
Ability: Levitate
EVs: 252 Spd / 252 SAtk / 4 SDef
Timid Nature
- Dark Pulse
- Fire Blast
- Surf
- Focus Blast
4. Metagross, with Leftovers
Ability: Clear Body
EVs: 252 Atk / 252 HP / 4 SDef
Adamant Nature
- Meteor Mash
- Zen Headbutt
- Brick Break
- Frustration
5. Tyranitar, with Muscle Band
Ability: Sand Stream
EVs: 252 Atk / 252 HP / 4 SDef
Adamant Nature
- Crunch
- Stone Edge
- Stealth Rock
- Earthquake
6. Venusaur, with Venusaurite
Ability: Overgrow
EVs: 252 SAtk / 252 HP / 4 SDef
Modest Nature
- Energy Ball
- Giga Drain
- Grass Knot
- Growth
Most of them are physical or special sweepers. Don't really feel the need to have any tanks or someone to do shit like Spikes and all that (don't like that playstyle). Was thinking of getting rid of a few moves (Tyranitar's Stealth Rock, few others). It seems to be a solid enough team from what it's been up against.
And Mega Venusaur is just a complete tank. So much so, it's almost not even fair. Took a few Ice Beams straight to the face from a Vaporeon and was like, "Fuck you, Giga Drain." Definitely gonna be the one I mega evolve when I get Y.

Nope. 3 of my team have a Muscle Band, so there isn't (at least in the OU class).
There are a few things though. Garchomp can't have the Sand Veil ability (raises Evasion in a Sandstorm), etc. But no item clause so far as I know, but I just started.
Why do you have 3 dragon type abilities on Garchomp and no Earthquake? Same with Venusaur. I'd replace Grass Knot with Sludge Bomb.
Can you only get one Shiny Stone in the game? I can't decide between evolving my Roselia or my Floette.
Doesn't choice scarf ice beam with a high SpAtt or stab oneshot 4/6 of your team?
hey guys i just got my jaw fossil is it safe to save before i bring it to life or do the natures stay with the fossil?

Naughty ups Attack and lowers Sp.Defense according to Bulbapedia. That's why Naughty. Since its defense and Sp.Defense are its lowes stats. Its Sp.Attack is quite high. However, I get what you are saying. Don't lower Sp.Defense if I can lower Sp.Attack.
Still not sure on how to create a move set though. Darn smogon for not having a guide! Im also guessing pinsirs Sp.Attack is worth while? It is his absolute worst stat in mega form so I figured I would lower that and up his Defense since his base attack is already at 155.
no problem! its all "theorying" but then again all their other stuff is theoried too. its just a little more rough, but itll give you a general idea. some of there B/w stuff is fine, but im sure some pokemon will completley change with females being able to pass egg moves now
and sweet mother of god, i just made a next to ungodly perfect honedge, 5 31's and 1 speed IV WHY GAME WHY, just 1 less speed and id be happy
